“For over two centuries, the Home Secretary has safeguarded the nation. Today, we begin a new chapter as we welcome Shabana Mahmood to the Home Office as the new Home Secretary,” the British government announced.
It is indeed a new chapter for the Pakistani Muslim politician, who took her oath of office on a Koran and who has now become the highest ranking Muslim in the British government.
And a new chapter for Islamic colonialism as seeing the white flag, 1,000 Muslim invaders crossed the Channel and invaded England on Mahmood’s first day at work.
But it’s also a new chapter for the people of England as a Pakistani Muslim woman who has made no secret of her hatred and contempt for them will now be empowered to persecute them using not only her control over immigration to displace them, but also her new arsenal of ‘public safety’, ‘national security’ and ‘law enforcement’ power to escalate her targeting of them.
What sort of chapter it is can be understood from Mahmood’s past declaration that “the people you see holding the English flag most of the time down my neck of the woods will be the EDL and they are white and they are male and they’re bad people.”
The Home Secretary is responsible for law enforcement. These “white men” will be the ones she comes after. Mahmood had previously proposed banning offenders from ‘pubs’ instead of arresting them. This new twist on the Starmer regime’s infamous two-tier policing would punish Englishmen while giving Muslims a pass. And implement Islamic Sharia law in the bargain.
Mahmood had urged adopting the definition of Islamophobia manufactured by the All Party Parliamentary Group on British Muslims. That definition would ban anyone from mentioning that Mohammed, the prophet of Islam, was a pedophile, referencing “Muslims spreading Islam by the sword or subjugating minority groups under their rule” and claimed that discussing the “issue of ‘grooming gangs’ which was a dangerous “trope” that increased the “vulnerability of Muslims to hate crimes”.
After a Muslim terrorist murdered three little girls, Mahmood, in her role as ‘Justice Secretary’ cheered as 500 prison cells described as “inhumane” were prepared for protesters against Islamic colonization and terrorism. Criminals were released to make room for those who had spoken out against the horrifying Islamic atrocity against English children.
Mahmood then visited a mosque and bragged of sending protesters against the Muslim murder of children to prison for years “within a week” and of show trials “broadcast” live and of “working through day and night” to find prison cells for political opponents.
While Shabana Mahmood deemed English people terrorists, actual Muslim terrorists were another matter entirely.
Mahmood had previously taken part in a Muslim Council of Britain event against ‘Islamophobia’. The Islamist organization had opposed a ban on Al Qaeda because it believed terroism was a way for some people to “claim their rights”, its founder had mused that “death is perhaps too easy” for Salman Rushdie and the MCB’s secretary general had signed a declaration demanding that all Muslims provide money to Hamas and called for war against all countries supporting Israel.
Now that Shabana Mahmood will preside over counterterrorism, an ally of the organization that labored for Al Qaeda and Hamas, what happens to the national security of the UK?
And can the United States trust any counterterrorism that falls into her hands?
Mahmood is taking part in her first ‘Five Eyes’ meeting, making it abundantly clear that global counterterrorism has been hopelessly compromised and lives will likely be lost because of it. And counterterrorism in the UK will be further twisted to enable Islamic terrorism and punish all those who oppose it.
In her first remarks, Mahmood, a Pakistani Muslim, visited Mark Rowley: the head of London’s Met Police which had arrested a man for criticizing Hamas, threatened a Jewish man near a terrorist rally that he would be arrested for being “visibly Jewish” (a policy Rowley subsequently defended) and arrested those correctly naming a Muslim terrorist as such while giving numerous Muslim terrorist supporters a pass.
“Supporting Palestine and supporting a proscribed terrorist group are not the same thing,” Shabana Mahmood tweeted after her meeting, making the laundering of support for Hamas into the takeaway of her initial meeting with the police commissioner.
A decade ago, Mahmood had appeared at an anti-Israel rally at which one of the speakers had declared, “It is Israel that are the terrorists here, not Hamas. It’s not a sin to fight for your freedom.”
The Pakistani Muslim politician had a history of attending anti-Israel and pro-terrorist rallies including a rally outside a Sainsbury supermarket protesting its sale of Israeli products and could be seen holding a “Free Palestine” sign calling for the destruction of Israel.
Now she has secured one of the most powerful positions in the UK and Europe.
“Islam, my own religion, like a lot of practicing Muslims my faith is the most important thing in my life. It is the absolute driver of everything that I do,” Shabana Mahmood once admitted.
Now Mahmood’s religion is also the “absolute driver” of the British government.
