'Hindus have ‘no intellect’ and that they ‘drink cow p***'

Channel 4 will broadcast a programme tonight entitled 'Lessons in Hate and Violence'.

Channel 4's preview includes this:

'It is an assembly hall of the sort found in any ordinary school. Boys aged 11 and upwards sit cross-legged on the floor in straight rows. They face the front of the room and listen carefully. But this is no ordinary assembly. Holding the children's attention is a man in Islamic dress wearing a skullcap and stroking his long dark beard as he talks.

'You're not like the non-Muslims out there,' the teacher says, gesturing towards the window. 'All that evil you see in the streets, people not wearing the hijab properly, people smoking... you should hate it, you should hate walking down that street.'

He refers to the 'non-Muslims' as the 'Kafir', an often derogatory term that means disbeliever or infidel.

...

We recorded a number of speakers giving deeply disturbing talks about Jews, Christians and atheists. We found children as young as 11 learning that Hindus have 'no intellect'. We came across pupils being told that the 'disbelievers' are 'the worst creatures' and that Muslims who adopt supposedly non-Muslim ways, such as shaving, dancing, listening to music, and – in the case of women – removing their headscarves, would be tortured with a forked iron rod in the after-life.

In 2009 this school was praised by government-approved inspection teams for its interfaith teachings. The report said that 'pupils learn about the beliefs and practices of other faiths and are taught to show respect to other world religions'.

It seems that the inspectors were unaware of the teaching methods revealed by our undercover reporter, Osman. He was taken on as a volunteer at the Darul Uloom school in Birmingham in April 2009 and was allowed to sit in on some lessons – but not their Islamic classes.

So, in July last year, he went into one of the rooms where we'd heard they taught Islamic studies and left a secret camera to record the lessons. Filming intermittently over a period of four months, the camera recorded children being taught a hardline, intolerant and highly anti-social version of Islam.

...

In just two days of filming in December 2010, the camera recorded the teacher hitting children as young as six or seven at least ten times, in less than three hours of lessons.'

Time after time there are investigations and exposes into teaching methods and sermons at British Islamic schools and Mosques and everyone is surprised whilst the Muslim institutions claim to be shocked and come out with statements like this

'The school said that a speaker who made comments about Jews was 'visiting', and his views did not represent school policy. It denied that its religious instruction was hardline or extremist and said it did not tolerate hatred towards any faith group.'

When will we realise that much of the Islamic teaching and giving of sermons in this country is not as tolerant as we might wish and Islam might claim. Hatred and intolerance are spread and nothing is done.
