Israel spreading Islamophobia in West: Scholar
Israel and its Zionist supporters in the West have carried out a series of false flag terror operation in the US and Europe in the name of Muslims to spread Islamophobia, says an American scholar.
British Muslims are facing an “explosion” in faith-based hate crimes, which will get much worse following the UK’s exit from the European Union (EU), a survey warns.
Tell MAMA, a project which records and measures anti-Muslim incidents in the UK, said in its annual report on Monday that Islamphobic incidents in Britain increased by 326 percent last year, rising from 146 to 437 cases.
“We’re living through a historical period, not only in the UK, but throughout the West and throughout the world where Muslims have been scapegoated,” said Kevin Barrett, an author and political commentator in Madison, Wisconsin.
Muslims have been “made into the great civilizational enemy to replace the lost Communist ebemy of the cold war,” Barrett told Press TV on Tuesday.
“This has been engineered primarily by Zionists and the major beneficiary is the ‘state’ of Israel, which is apparently the major actor behind the series of false flag terror events beginning with 9/11,” he added.
“All of these events have either been proven to be false flags or strongly indicated as false flags and the Israelis are the prime suspects in all of this.”
The Tell MAMA survey also found that British Muslim women who wear hijab are now in such grave danger that they fear to conduct “day to day activities.”
The report showed that 61 percent of victims in the cases investigated by the organization were women, of whom at least 75 percent were identified as Muslim.
In one instance, a woman received a suspended jail sentence for abusing a pregnant Muslim woman on a bus in London last November, accusing her of being a supporter of Daesh (ISIL).
The Tell MAMA report added that the largest proportion of incidents involved perpetrators aged between 13 and 18, indicating a “radicalization” of teenagers and their lack of understanding for multiculturalism.
In another shocking report, the Muslim Council of Britain said that over the weekend alone, it had recorded some 100 hate crimes against Muslims and their mosques across the UK.
