Fox News Guest Says Birmingham, England Is 'Totally Muslim' City In Which 'Non-Muslims' Don't Enter
Business Insider ^ | 01/12/2015 | DINA SPECTOR

Steve Emerson, author and executive director of The Investigative Project on Terrorism, has apologized after calling the English city of Birmingham "totally Muslim" while appearing as a guest on a Fox News segment this weekend.

"In Britain, it's not just no-go zones, there are actually cities like Birmingham that are totally Muslim where non-Muslims just simply don't go in," Emerson told Fox News host, Judge Jeanine Pirro.

Anything approaching 10% creates an issue. 22% is guaranteed trouble.

It is nice how they muzzies congregate and partition themselves from normal human beings. It will make our job easier in the future.

That one Lewis MG would get a lot of use. They should’ve kept a few more.

They are about a quarter of the city, you see how much power homosexuals have with 2% or so I bet.

That would be a bit of a surprise to a certain friend of mine who lives there. He did say he was changing his name to “Abu”, though...

Ok, general rules for the Bronx about 20 years ago was if you are white you had to be out by 2 or 3 pm per truck drivers. Any other sweet home towns with the same rules?

So what else is new under the sun?

No problem, they are all in one place. Now arrange for them to get their 72 “virgins” (may they all look like Helen Thomas).

I have noticed, at least where I live, that Christian churches are wide open, highly visible, signs everywhere saying “welcome to all” and announcing the times of all their services. Jewish synagogues, same thing. Open, brightly lit, welcoming. Even foreign-language religious buildings (Korean Christian churches, Vietnamese Buddhist temples, etc.) are all clearly marked, welcoming, and with English signs augmenting the other languages.

Mosques, on the other hand, are almost always hidden behind hedges or fences, no signs of any kind, no indication that it is a religious building of any sort, to say nothing of a mosque. No welcome signs, no times for services, nothing.

That will change. In Virginia the mosque near Merrifield had signs (and local police guard) after 9/11. Probably still has the signs. Once Islam gets a better foothold they will build the giant mosques with the loudspeakers, no way you can miss them then.

Especially when they are armed and the British citizenry isn't.

He should apologise, as what he said is rubbish. Complete nonsense. And Emerson has a LONG history of such rubbish, going back to Oklahoma.

Cleese, a highly intelligent man, knows that cities by definition, have always been cosmopolitan. London is one of the most and always has been: Jews, blacks both Caribbean and African, Irish, Slavs, German Jews, French Protestants, Sikhs, Hindus, Muslims, Greeks, Arabs.......when John was writing Python in 69, his city was a mix of different peoples, it wasn’t all white British and Irish.
