Uproar On Bbc Asian Network

[Hammertime007]

Theres been uproar on the so called Asian network that the Boring Broadcasting Company run.

EDL spokes man Gurmeet upset Muslims after making a statement about Muhammad.

Apparently Nihlal the presenter had death threats after.

The EDL leader and his 'executive' team are confused individuals who in one sentence say we are against all Muslims and then we are just against the extremist Muslims. They blame all of the Koran for the violence, when all of the Koran does not promote violence and they should be really targeting Sharia Law and verses that promote hate from the Koran, Haidith, etc. This hate they promote toward all Muslims is not what any Sikh should promote, encourage or become a follower of.

The UK Sikhs should publicly announce they don't promote or stand behind the EDL.

Here is a video, where an interview was done with EDL leader. See for yourself how stable this man is and how stable his second in command are. One of his foot soldiers has a hard time completing a sentence.

This situation is getting increasingly out of hand. Our youth are allying themselves with an organisation that is so, so wrong. Can they not see that? I'm all for combatting these extremist Muslims but don't do it off the backs of these EDL folk. Sikhi is being - and will be - hugely tarnished once the general media gets grasp of the fact that Sikhs are flocking to the side of the EDL. We're going to be made to look as nutty as the EDL lot. This can only end in tears and I guarantee it will damage our religion.

Kaljugi - is absolutely right! Most of the EDL are Nazi Racists who would gladly attack any coloured people if they thought that they could get away with it.

The Sikhs are more than capable of protecting themselves, and it's community, by itself. If we follow Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji's instruction we are more than protected. And as tax payers we are allowed to seek help from the law/police of this country.

Do not attach yourself to the EDL unless, as Kuljugi says, you want to bring shame on the panth '!!!!

"First they came…" is a famous statement attributed to Pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984) about the inactivity of German intellectuals following the Nazi rise to power and the purging of their chosen targets, group after group. The text of the quotation is usually presented roughly as follows:

When Hitler attacked the Jews I was not a Jew, therefore I was not concerned.

And when Hitler attacked the Catholics, I was not a Catholic, and therefore, I was not concerned.

And when Hitler attacked the unions and the industrialists, I was not a member of the unions and I was not concerned.

Then Hitler attacked me and the Protestant church — and there was nobody left to be concerned.

I know the media here well. If any apnay go to the Luton thing tomorrow, they will probably flash any pictures they get of them all over the media (subtly making a big deal of it).

The EDL have gone from being 'Anti Muslim extremist' to now being generally 'Anti-Islam/Koran'. What foolishness is this to make general enemies of billions of people?

Notice how in that recent Newsnight clip, the media already slyly suggested that that Guramit bloke is the brains behind all the commotion. In future they may well just blame him for any mess that happens, like a convenient brown scapegoat.

Plus they may try and deflect growing Muslim aggression/tension in this country by manipulating the representation of events to redirect this anger towards Sikhs to take the heat off whites.

People play some very dirty games out there. More simple brothers need to seriously ask themselves if they are being unwittingly manipulated, even if they misguidedly think they have our own interests at heart.

God forbid Sikhi were to ever come under the hateful, occasionally unjustified and irrational ire that Islam is subjected to from most quarters of the right-wing press in the UK. When the good people within Sikhi will be asked to explain OUR faith and principles to the wider public who are unaware of Sikhi and its teachings, will anyone really listen to us when they see members of our community galavanting with the likes of the EDL?

What are we going to say then? "Sikhs are a peaceful and tolerant people - but we also like the company of far-right groups like the EDL". We're going to be laughed out of town, and trust me when I say that when devious elements within the Islamic community will begin a dirty-tricks campaign against Sikhs, we are going to be up slack alley because we can't even stand together as a quom! I can see it now.

All the Singhs and Kaurs advising other Sikhs to stay away from the EDL are absolutely right !!!

If Sikhs are seen at any EDL marches then all the non-Sikhs will think Sikhs are racist. All our 11 Gurus spread the message of love for all of humanity.

Any Sikhs who are thinking of going to an EDL march should sit down and just think of all the acts of bravery, courage and love the Gurus and Shaheeds have committed for the good of all of humanity. Once you have thought of this then image how silly you will look standing next to a bunch of racists. You will be rolling your great history in the dirt.

Go and pray in front of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji at the Gurdwara and ask with your conscience, 'Guru Ji, should I associate with the EDL? You'll get a resounding No!!!

Remember you are a Sikh and you have the capability to protect yourself from Racist, without joining a bunch of racists. Don't unwittingly become the EDL's disciple, be the Guru's disciple!

Remember, it’s Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa (Vaheguru Ji’s Khalsa). It’s not the ELD’s Khalsa !!
