‘Monty Python’ legend John Cleese doubles down after incendiary posts about Islam spark UK complaint

"Monty Python" legend John Cleese is doubling down on his months-long string of incendiary posts about Islam after activists filed a complaint that asked Britain's counter-radicalization program to scrutinize him over the missives.

"How exciting," the 86-year-old comedian wrote after learning that a member of the public had referred him to Prevent, a British government program designed to intervene when authorities believe someone may be vulnerable to radicalization or becoming involved in terrorism.

The September 22 referral, first reported by Muslim-focused British news outlet 5Pillars, accused Cleese of a "sustained pattern" of online activity that "demonizes, dehumanizes, and collectively attributes violence and criminality to Muslims and Islam."

Maybe the muzzies would forgive Cleese if he apologized like he did in “A Fish Called Wanda”, but I doubt it. They would probably set him on fire and let him drop.

“I’ve always loved that guy!”

Yes, a great comedian. And apparently a great British patriot that the muslim apologists are now trying to silence. It makes me like him even more.

Violence is not in the Muslim/Islam handbook aka the Koran. /s

Qur’an 9:5 — the famous “sword verse” “Then kill the polytheists wherever you find them, capture them, besiege them, and lie in wait for them at every place of ambush.”

Qur’an 9:29 — concerning the People of the Book (traditionally Jews and Christians): “Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day… from among those who were given the Scripture, until they pay the jizyah with willing submission and feel themselves subdued.”

Qur’an 47:4 — “So when you meet those who disbelieve [in battle], strike their necks until you have thoroughly subdued them…”

Qur’an 9:5 ... “And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them [go] on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.”

Qur’an 9:29... “Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture—[fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled.”

I’m personally glad he feels that way about that particular bunch of criminal misfits.

I have heard different folks talking about how many Muslims were being converted to Christianity, but I have to wonder how effective it is. Is the Islamic belief system multiplying so fast as to offset the movement to Christianity or what? It seems so hard these days to get down to the real truth of a situation.

Cleese is an across the board liberal on most issues, but unlike most leftists, he hasn't managed woke doublethink when it comes to Islam.

Most leftists are perfectly happy to talk about "women's lib" and "gay rights" in one breath while shrieking about "Islamophobia" in the next breath, completely oblivious to the fact that the feminists and homosexuals get a much better deal in Christian societies than in Muslim ones.

Older liberals like John Cleese and Richard Dawkins (i.e. anti-Muslim liberals) simply haven't acquired the doublethink that's standard operating procedure for the woke left and its freak-show coalition of mutually incompatible factions.

Maybe they’ll force him to stop doing Silly Walks or ban him from the Argument Clinic.

Yes, well, that's the sort of blinkered, philistine pig ignorance I've come to expect from you non-creative garbage. You sit there on your loathsome, spotty behinds squeezing blackheads, not caring a tinker's cuss for the struggling artist. You excrement! You whining, hypocritical toadie.

I was a bit on edge just now, but— but if I was a mason, I’d just sit at the back and not get in anyone’s way.
