A hidden camera sting in a Muslim lawyer’s office in England shows that kids are being told there that ISIS is nothing but western propaganda and that Islam couldn’t possibly spawn terrorism.

These are the lies Muslims tell people…

A Muslim barrister has been filmed telling a women’s workshop that the government is lying about the threat posed by Islamic State.

Ibtihal Bsis, a presenter on the London-based Islam TV channel and member of the radical Hizb ut-Tahrir group, tells the meeting in Southampton that as Muslims they are being oppressed and accuses the government of deliberately exaggerating the ISIS threat as an excuse to hound Muslims.

“ISIS are a nobody and they are a nothing; they are allowing them to grow… they are using them for propaganda.”

She also denies that holding radical views leads people to join Islamic State.

“‘If you have an extremism [sic] you’re on a pathway to terrorism’. Incidentally there is no evidence for that at all. None”

BBC South Today reports that Bsis was invited to speak on the government’s ‘Prevent’ counter-extremism strategy. She tells the gathering that they should resist questions from officers, accusing Prevent of demonising Muslims.

“If a Prevent officer, social workers or even the school have asked questions of your child about their salat, their hijab, you can say you’re not entitled to do that.”

Reality does not exist in Islam, apparently.
