00:00:02,159 --> 00:00:06,520
these are the pictures and updates on

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:09,120
social media as another far-right

3
00:00:06,520 --> 00:00:12,480
anti-islamic group boasted about their

4
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:15,040
provocations against Britain's Muslim

5
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:17,400
Community this time the target was

6
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:19,240
mosques in Bradford supporters of the

7
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,000
far-right group say they targeted 10

8
00:00:19,240 --> 00:00:23,480
mosques and we know they entered at

9
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:26,000
least three including this one behind me

10
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:28,119
handing out these hatef leaflets about

11
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:31,359
Muslim grooming calling Muslims

12
00:00:28,119 --> 00:00:33,480
pedophiles and threatening those inside

13
00:00:31,359 --> 00:00:36,280
police say they are now investigating

14
00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:38,879
the incidents we had two cars loaded

15
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,640
with um some young men approximately

16
00:00:38,879 --> 00:00:42,920
about 10 of them and they parked the

17
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:46,160
cars outside and in kind of a military

18
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:48,199
style entered the Masjid um and they

19
00:00:46,160 --> 00:00:50,680
came and they were quite aggressive to

20
00:00:48,199 --> 00:00:52,800
one of the Masjid members and they began

21
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:54,359
having these leaflets and saying to him

22
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:57,800
quite aggressively these are the things

23
00:00:54,359 --> 00:01:00,199
that you people do groom um groom girls

24
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,680
Etc and then they began saying where's

25
00:01:00,199 --> 00:01:04,559
your Imam where's your

26
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:07,119
Imam George Galloway who is a Bradford

27
00:01:04,559 --> 00:01:10,680
MP visited some of the affected mosques

28
00:01:07,119 --> 00:01:14,000
on Monday it seems so far that uh no

29
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:16,360
damage was done and no one was hurt by

30
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:20,280
the grace of God but it's nonetheless

31
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:22,759
deeply disturbing it's a new set of

32
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:25,000
circumstances that these fascist

33
00:01:22,759 --> 00:01:28,040
elements are actually entering into

34
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:30,520
Muslim property with their shoes on and

35
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:32,159
with ill intent and and it could have

36
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:35,000
been far

37
00:01:32,159 --> 00:01:37,520
worse the incident fits into a broader

38
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:40,119
climate of islamophobia in Britain in

39
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:42,720
mainstream media and politics it has

40
00:01:40,119 --> 00:01:45,360
become the norm to sensationalize issues

41
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:47,479
to do with the Muslim Community for over

42
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,520
a week the papers have been full of a

43
00:01:47,479 --> 00:01:52,399
scandal to do with British restaurants

44
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:55,159
including Subway serving halal meat the

45
00:01:52,399 --> 00:01:57,479
consequence Subway was also targeted in

46
00:01:55,159 --> 00:02:01,000
Bradford but there was no reporting of

47
00:01:57,479 --> 00:02:03,079
that in fact as of going to air no other

48
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:05,520
major media Outlet in Britain has

49
00:02:03,079 --> 00:02:07,280
reported on this story it seems

50
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:13,000
sometimes silence speaks a thousand
