Muslim Council of Britain Head Compares UK to Nazi Germany



The head of the Islamic radical front group
calling itself the Muslim Council of Britain, Muhammed Abdul Bari, says that Britain
is well on the way to becoming just like
Nazi Germany:

A senior Muslim invoked Hitler’s 1930s Nazi regime while attacking the Government over its treatment of British Muslims. Mr Bari drew compared the Government’s treatment of Muslims with the Nazis’ persecution of Jews.
Muhammed Abdul Bari accused ministers of stigmatising Britain’s Islamic community and fuelling xenophobia.
Mr Bari, the head of the Muslim Council of Britain, criticised the Government for "unfairly targeting" Muslims, and said that it was undermining their status as "equal citizens". He warned that blaming extremism on "a small, largely deprived community" leads to a "deterioration of community cohesion and fuels xenophobia".
In a presentation to MPs, Mr Bari went so far as to ask: "What is the degree of xenophobia that tipped Germany in the 1930s towards a murderous ethnic and cultural racism?" ...
Mr Bari also rejected Tony Blair’s call for Muslims to do more to fight terrorism. He put the responsibility squarely at the door of the Government.
He said: "The attempt to place the problem on one doorstep is unfair and counter-productive." He blamed the "relentless barrage" of anti-terrrorism laws, labelling them "hastily formulated responses masquerading as policy".
Mr Bari later said: "Politicians have failed to consider underlying causes of Muslim disaffection and have reacted hastily by over-legislating."
Bari is extremely eager to paint British Muslims as the "new Jews" of Nazi Britain. Yet he and his organization feel no compunction at all about dishonoring the millions of real Jews murdered by Nazi Germany.
He also defended the council’s controversial decision to boycott Holocaust Memorial Day. ...
"The MCB would be honoured to participate in such a commemoration provided it gave equal respect to the innocent victims of all genocides around the world. But we cannot accept that some people are more worthy of remembrance than others purely on the basis of their religion."
Mr Bari ended his speech by calling for a "social contract", officially defining the "rights and obligations" of every British citizen. He hoped this would help Muslims who are unsure of what the Government means when it asks them to "integrate" into society.
Yesterday, Mr Bari said that he did not recall the exact phrases he had used during the speech. But he said: "We know what happened in Nazi Germany and we have to be on guard against entire communities being demonised due to the actions of a minority."
