Fanatics from a banned Islamic hate group have launched a nationwide poster campaign denouncing Christmas as evil.
Organisers plan to put up thousands of placards around the UK claiming the season of goodwill is responsible for rape, teenage pregnancies, abortion, promiscuity, crime and paedophilia.
They hope the campaign will help 'destroy Christmas' in this country and lead to Britons converting to Islam instead.
Labour MP and anti racist campaigner Jim Fitzpatrick branded the posters 'extremely offensive' and demanded they were immediately ripped down.The placards, which have already appeared in parts of London, feature an apparently festive scene with an image of the Star of Bethlehem over a Christmas tree.
But under a banner announcing 'the evils of Christmas' it features a message mocking the song the 12 Days of Christmas. It reads: 'On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me an STD (sexually transmitted disease). On the second day debt, on the third rape, the fourth teenage pregnancies and then there was abortion.'
According to the posters, Christmas is also to responsible for paganism, domestic violence, homelessness, vandalism, alcohol and drugs.
Another offence of Christmas, it proclaims, is 'claiming God has a son'.
The bottom of the poster declares: 'In Islam we are protected from all of these evils. We have marriage, family, honour, dignity, security, rights for man, woman and child.'
The campaign's organiser is 27-year-old Abu Rumaysah, who once called for Sharia Law in Britain at a press conference held by hate preacher leader Anjem Choudary, the leader of militant group Islam4UK.
Former Home Secretary Alan Johnson banned Islam4UK group earlier this year, making it a criminal offence to be a member, after it threatened to protest at Wootton Bassett, the town where Britain honours its war dead.
Mr Rumaysah told the Mail that he was unconcerned about offending Christians. He said: 'Christmas is a lie and as Muslims it is our duty to attack it.
In Muslim-dominated countries Christians are not even allowed to celebrate Christmas or practice their faith openly and freely. The Associated Press reports:
KIRKUK, Iraq -- Iraqi Christians on Wednesday called off Christmas festivities across the country as al-Qaida insurgents threatened more attacks on a beleaguered community still terrified from a bloody siege at a Baghdad church two months earlier.
A council representing Christian denominations across Iraq advised its followers to cancel public Christmas celebrations out of concern over new terror attacks and as a show of mourning for the victims of the church siege and other violence.
There is something desperately wrong with a multiculturalism that cannot distinguish between immigrants who want to come into Western countries and adopt a Western lifestyle and those who only want to come as invaders determined to overthrow our freedoms and impose the same kind of religious theocracy as exists in the poor, backward, totalitarian societies they are coming from. There should be zero tolerance for anyone who wishes to come to the West in order to work as a subversive fifth column seeking to overthrow the West.
Moreover, the West should demand reciprocity for every freedom offered to Muslims in the West by way of increased tolerance for Christians in Muslim countries such as the Middle Eastern states. Even atheists and agnostics should support this idea because they should realize that the kind of liberal, democratic society that we have in the West today is the result of 2000 years of Christian heritage. Islam does not produce free societies and neither do the Eastern religions. Only the Judeo-Christian culture produces the kind of societies in which there is freedom of the individual to believe or not believe according to one's conscience. This is an integral principle of Christianity and Christianity's gift to the world.
But, I suppose, the Left will welcome Muslim attacks on Christmas as yet another way of undermining the Christian heritage of the West in preparation for the revolution and the imposition of a dreary, Eastern totalitarianism.
I guess I wouldn't be worried about a few Muslim fanatics if only I had confidence in the ruling elites of Western societies not to cave in to pressure and give the fanatics what they want. They will feed the beast until it devours them and by that point it will be too late to say "I told you so."
