AP: You Can’t Spell Crap Without It.

EU Report: Muslims Face ‘Islamophobia’
By BRIAN MURPHY

ATHENS, Greece (AP) – Muslims across Europe are confronting a rise in “Islamophobia” ranging from violent attacks to discrimination in job and housing markets, a wide-ranging European Union report indicated Monday.

The study, compiled by the European Monitoring Center on Racism and Xenophobia, urged European authorities to strengthen policies on integration. But it also noted that Muslims need to do more to counter negative perceptions driven by terrorism and upheavals such as the backlash to cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad.

The 117-page survey details the many divides between the EU mainstream and the estimated 13 million Muslims – now at least 3.5 percent of the 25-nation bloc’s population – and seeks to offer a street-level view of the complexities blocking efforts to bridge the differences.

`The disadvantaged position of Muslim minorities, evidence of a rise in Islamophobia and concern over processes of alienation and radicalization have triggered an intense debate in the European Union,” said Beate Winkler, director of the Vienna-based group.

Naturally I believe anything the AP says, so imagine my surprise when I see that Jews are far more likely to be victims of a hate crime than Muslims are to be.

Jews far more likely to be victims of faith hatred than Muslims
By Tom Harper and Ben Leapman

Jewish people are four times more likely to be attacked because of their religion than Muslims, according to figures compiled by the police.
     
One in 400 Jews compared to one in 1,700 Muslims are likely to be victims of "faith hate" attacks every year. The figure is based on data collected over three months in police areas accounting for half the Muslim and Jewish populations of England and Wales. The crimes range from assault and verbal abuse to criminal damage at places of worship.

Police forces started recording the religion of faith-hate crime victims only this year. They did so on the instruction of the Association of Chief Police Officers (Acpo), which wanted a clear picture of alleged community tensions around the country, following reports of Muslims being attacked after September 11 and the July 7 London bombings last year.

However, the first findings, for July to September, obtained by The Sunday Telegraph under freedom of information legislation, show that it is Jews who are much more likely to be targeted because of their religion.

The figures also suggest that many faith-hate crimes remain unsolved, contrary to the picture painted by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) in a report this month. The CPS said only 43 people were charged with "religiously aggra-vated" offences last year, and concluded that the large rise expected after the July 7 bombings had not materialised.

Police figures suggest, however, that hundreds of faith-hate crimes are being committed, with very few ever reaching court. Those figures include any crime that is reported to police which the victim believes is motivated by hatred of his or her religion.

The CPS report revealed that not a single person accused of an anti-Semitic crime had been prosecuted on a charge of religiously aggravated offending. It said: "The police statistics include incidents where no defendant has been identified or where there is insufficient evidence for a prosecution."

A report by MPs in September said British Jews were more vulnerable to attack and abuse now than for a generation. Iain Duncan Smith, the former Tory leader, who sat on the All-Party Parliamentary Inquiry into Anti-Semitism, said it was "perverse" that not all police forces recorded anti-Semitic incidents and said that some forces "verge on the complacent". The Acpo directive was ignored by most forces, whose systems are not designed to record religion, though they routinely record ethnicity. Acpo said large organisations take time to adjust to new systems.
     
The Sunday Telegraph has obtained information on faith-hate crimes from the Metropolitan Police, Greater Manchester, South Wales and West Mercia forces. In London and Manchester, where Muslims outnumber Jews by four to one, anti-Semitic offences exceeded anti-Muslim offences (see table). The figures do not record the faith of the offenders.

Rabbi Alex Chapper, 33, was the victim of a "faith-hate" crime in July last year. He was returning from a synagogue in Ilford, Essex, with three Jewish friends after conducting a service. All were wearing skull caps. Seven Asian teenagers followed them down the road shouting "Yehudi", which means Jew in Arabic. One of them shouted, "We are Pakistani, you are Jewish. We are going to kill you", before punching Rabbi Chapper in the face and hitting one of his friends over the head with a bottle.

"It was very frightening, we were all very shaken," said the rabbi. "I thought we were going to get seriously hurt but someone threatened to call the police and they ran off.

"We identified the youths and told the police but they were never prosecuted. They just did not seem interested. I feel very let down."

A spokesman for the Community Security Trust, which monitors attacks on Jews, said: "Many people hoped and believed anti-Semitism had burnt itself out. This is not the case."

I’m sure honor killings, rioting in France, increased attacks on gays, no desire to assimilate, wanting to kill all the Jews…… again, and jeez…blowing up buses and trains has nothing to do with the suspicions of Europeans.

Notice how the backlash against Asians appears to be non-existent. I also wonder if the increased anti-Semitism has anything to do with increased Muslim immigration…. .naaahhh!

Did they even bother to investigate what minority group actually received the most hate crimes? Apparently not, as doing any ( even remedial) research would get in the way of their agenda. Seriously, (and yes, it is hard to use that word and the AP in the same sentence) what would motivate the AP to focus on one group when another group has four times the number of incidents of hatred? It can’t be bias, or belonging to an organization without any hint of intellectual diversity to challenge their opinions. Nope. I personally trust the news and their commitment to presenting an unfiltered, unbiased, and objective news product. Even when, in a time when the west struggles, the MSM puts out stories retarded monkeys should be embarrassed to pen.

CNN reports nearly all white Americans may be racists
by Patrick Ishmael

A new poll from Opinion Research given front-page treatment by CNN shows that many Americans still see racism as a lingering problem. Just not a problem they have.

Almost half of black respondents to the poll — 49 percent — said racism is a "very serious" problem, while 18 percent of whites shared that view. Forty-eight percent of whites and 35 percent of blacks chose the description "somewhat serious."

Asked if they know someone they consider racist, 43 percent of whites and 48 percent of blacks said yes.

But just 13 percent of whites and 12 percent of blacks consider themselves racially biased.

The findings so far aren’t that surprising, but wait for it… the MSM gem comes in the two paragraphs that follow:

Professor Jack Dovidio of the University of Connecticut, who has researched racism for more than 30 years, estimates up to 80 percent of white Americans have racist feelings they may not even recognize.

"We’ve reached a point that racism is like a virus that has mutated into a new form that we don’t recognize," Dovidio said.

I won’t comment on this, I won’t!

I’ll ignore just how badly written this article is. If you really believe almost all whites are racist and no other race is, then I have nothing to say to you, because nothing I say will matter. However, it is just another example from a plethora of examples of the MSM commitment to bias, un-objectivity, and never letting the facts get in the way of their agenda.

I personally blame Jamil Hussein for this error.
