Commentary on Mohamed Hassan - Public Enemy, Part 1,

Mohamed Hassan - Public Enemy, Part 1,

Broadcast on Radio New Zealand National Programme, Sunday 4 December 2016. 

Mohamed Hassan’s sympathetic presentation of Muslims’ grievances and ‘Islamophobia’ is another episode in an unrelenting series of Radio New Zealand’s support for Islam and its exponential growth in New Zealand and other Western countries. 

It was predictable, totally one-sided, and carried nothing in the way of insight into underlying issues.  So far, so Radio New Zealand. 

I wish I could look forward to Radio New Zealand examining issues such as Islam’s policy of vicinal arrogation, where Muslims will colonise existing suburbs to the cultural exclusion of others, imposing sharia law and Islamic standards regardless of others’ beliefs.  It results in the many hundreds of no-go zones across Europe, Thailand’s and Burma’s problems with Rohingyas, and the disaffection of ordinary people who feel alienated in their own countries resulting in the rise of the populist right.  Eventually it will result in civil war.

I’d like to see a programmed dedicated to Islam’s policy of retributive subsidiarity, where Muslims are enjoined to carry out violent actions in the perceived defence of Islam.  The consequence of this is increasing throughout the world, with jihadi attacks, suicide bombers, lone wolves, the killing of a shopkeeper for wishing his clients an enjoyable Easter or a soldier just for being a soldier, or the lessons in Islamic awareness I get at an airport’s boarding gate.  It could examine the huge increases in security and intelligence costs associated in keeping New Zealanders safe from Islam’s more active contingent.

National Radio’s audience figures would perk up if it were to bring its listeners an explication of Islam’s sexual mores, its implicit pederasty or its explicit paedophilia in its child-marriage laws.  While the former explains the rush for boys to grow beards, the latter is the absolute repudiation of female emancipation, but even feminists seem loath to give expression to protest. 

There could be a programme about the contrast between the intensity and obsession of Islam’s believers and their countries with the societal progress that secular states have made.  After all, in every measure of civilisation, Western states dominate and Islamic states fail.

Perhaps the programme we are least likely to hear from Radio New Zealand will be one where the role of the management of discourse in the West’s succumbing to Islam’s conquest is examined, because it will be too close to home.  But of all subjects related to the the epochal change we are witnessing, this is the most crucial.  It has eliminated our defences.

The sort of programmes that Radio New Zealand presents about Muslims and Islam require more than just a simple ignorance of Islam’s unbridgeable moral differences with the West.  It needs a wilful blindness to evidence, facts, statements, activities, scriptural texts, history and the testimony of objective, wise and educated Western-orientated commentators.

Instead, it listens to Muslims, who, by virtue of their religion, are required to bring the West into submission to the will of Allah.  And thanks to the likes of Mohamed Hassan, to the great shame of journalists and broadcasters, they are succeeding.
