Prime Minister To Be Sued By Birmingham Central Mosque?

What to make of the suggestion that Birmingham Central Mosque is to sue David Cameron following comments he made at the weekend?

Cameron is quoted as stating:

"You have to confront the extremism itself. You have to say to the people in Birmingham Central Mosque, or wherever, who are saying 9/11 is a Jewish conspiracy, that that is not an acceptable attitude to have."

However wrong Cameron may be on issues ranging from cuts to foreign policy, he can hardly be blamed for associating Birmingham Central Mosque with absurd conspiracy theories. In 2009 the BBC's Conspiracy Files programme found Mosque Chairman Dr Mohammed Naseem distributing 200 copies of the DVD 7/7 Ripple Effect around the mosque, which propagates the view that Israel was behind the London bombings.
At the time of the 7/7 attacks, Dr Naseem gave a press conference at which he refused to believe Muslims could have been involved in the attacks. The Conspiracy Files programme ended with Dr Naseem meeting leading 9/11 'truth' activist Tony Gosling to plan further work together. Given this background, Dr Naseem may struggle to find a solicitor willing to take his case forward.

One final point to ponder. Relations were not always so poor however between the mosque and the Prime Minister. Back on 5 February 2007, when David Cameron was mere leader of the opposition, he travelled to Birmingham and spent time at - Birmingham Central Mosque. Perhaps that day someone forgot to clear away some of the 'truth' literature so eagerly distributed by mosque Chairman Dr Mohammed Naseem?

More on Dr Naik and 9/11

Muslim Weekly goes large in its current issue (25/6/10) in defence of Dr Zakir Naik. 

One amusing line comes courtesy of his lawyer Majeed Memon, who complains of the Home Secretary Theresa May using pro Bin Laden comments Dr Naik made in 1996 as evidence against him. 

"Mr Memon said the comments were made before the 9/11 attacks and should not be read into".

Er - would these be the 9/11 attacks Dr Naik believes the Americans carried out themselves? 

Just When The Election Campaign Could Not Get Any Worse - David Shayler Appears!

Well you can't get a good man down (or woman, lets not forget Delores!). 

David Shayler, the poor man's David Icke, has popped up in the general election campaign down in one of his old stomping grounds - Totnes in Devon. Yesterdays Guardian spotted the white coated one campaigning for an 'independent' candidate Stephen Hopwood. In a move that could have been designed to remind us all of the importance of the National Health Service, Mr Hopwood is apparently a practitioner of complimentary medicine. 

Hopwood's website announces he is standing on a single issue - truth. Given the trouble David Shayler has had with the concept over the years, it is perhaps a good idea for the two men to get together! Only a few weeks ago Hopwood was to be found speaking with another former MI5 officer (is a pattern emerging here) Annie Machon at the Totnes truth festival. Well you will certainly get a form of truth out of Agent Annie Dr Hopwood, the trouble is there is usually another, entirely different truth along half an hour later! 

Do send further sightings of 9/11 'truth' input in election campaigns in your area to us. 

Another Big Name Joins The Truth Movement!

Following Minister Farrakhan, we now have another ego landing on the truth movement's lawn - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad!

Reuthers reports on his view that 9/11 was a 'fabrication' to allow the Americans to invade Afghanistan. Sadly it seems Ahmadinejad has forgotten that the Americans only just beat the Iranians to it when it comes to overthrowing the Taliban. The period of Taliban rule saw immense tension between the Sunni Taliban and Shia Iran, and the Islamic Republic Of iran granted the US air force fly over rights so they could attack the Taliban.

Whilst such rhetoric from Ahmadinejad may allow him to play to that section of the Muslim world that is as conpiracy minded as he is, it says little for the Iranian governments collective memory...........

Vote Tory For 9/11 Truth

Oh my aching sides!

Thanks to KW in Hampstead for drawing my attention to the amusing case of Tory think tank founder Phillip Blond, late of Cumbria University, and his academic colleague John Milbank who it seems has an interesting record in terms of his views on 9/11. Read Olivier Kamm on the subject here.

Clearly Mr Cameron's Conservative party is a very broad church!

No Truth Movement Prime Minister

At last something sensible from Michael Meacher!

The 9/11 cults hope for Prime Minister has decided to withdraw from the Labour leadership contest. Some more information here.

Head Down And Charge - No Matter How Tasteless

Well, the bodies were not even cold in the US University massacre, before oddball researchers were leaping up and down.

Alex Jones, one of the leading 9/11 "theorists" has published this article on one of his websites.

It is a typical article from his circle - conjecture, bile and paranoia are coupled together in an indecent rush to reach conclusions without any serious investigation or analysis.

In this world, the authors premise is their conclusion, everytime.

And they call themselves researchers!

Class War On The "Truth" Movement

The summer 2007 issue of the anarchist tabloid Class War has an article dissecting the 9/11 "Truth" movement. You can read it below:

9/11 Conspiraloons Opposed
One of the daftest set of theories out there comes courtesy of the “9/11 Truth Movement”. These are the jokers that try to convince the world and his wife that Osama Bin Laden was not responsible for the September 11 2001 terrorist attacks in New York.
In the UK a strange mixture of conspiracy theorists, ex-spooks (including that old red baiter David Shayler) anti-semites, new age greens and Muslims unable to accept their co-religionists ever do anything wrong, have joined forces in the UK and Ireland 9/11 Truth Movement.
They want us to believe that anyone from Mossad through to George W Bush himself was responsible, and even that the Twin Towers were not hit by planes at all but by holograms, whilst explosives planted inside the towers brought them down.
This nonsense is easily laughed off by the establishment, and of course Bush and Blair are quite happy to see people discussing conspiracy theories rather than the political issues that led the 9/11 attacks. Such as?
Perhaps all those years supporting and funding Islamist bigots as a bulwark against Communism was a bad idea. Perhaps sucking up to Saudi Arabia all the time – home to 15 of the 19 hijackers – was not such a good idea either?
This year has seen the beginnings of a backlash against these clowns, whose cult-like behaviour and dismissal of anyone who disagrees with them as “gatekeepers” is as annoying as it is telling. Expect to see Class War dismissed as “fake anarchists” or “Anarchist gatekeepers” as a result of this article.
