Great Britain is in the throes of a rape and pedophilia epidemic unlike anything the country has experienced in living memory.

Many of the sex crimes are being perpetrated by Muslim child grooming gangs responsible for drugging, raping and torturing hundreds and possibly thousands of British girls.

Kern, Soeren.  “UK Taxi Rapes: ‘No Woman is Safe in a Cab’.”  Gatestone Institute, July 17, 2013.

Astria Berwick was jailed for 16 months in Nottingham Crown Court yesterday after admitting to perverting the course of justice by wrongly accusing Mohammed Asif of rape on February 20, the Telegraph reports.

Alys, Francis.  “Taxi driver uses phone app to expose false rape claim.”  9 News World, July 5, 2013.

This tawdry bit of potential but not proven bigotry goes back a couple of years, at least, with a look-see request for appropriate statistics (request denied: data not compiled and therefore not available).

In 2009, The Guardian’s Sandra Laville reported “Taxi rapist may have attacked more than 100” and the “perp” was known: John Worboys (Wikipedia reference), and of Warboys, Laville went on to write,  “. . . 51, a licensed London cab driver, was told yesterday he faces a “very substantial” jail sentence after a jury convicted him of 19 charges of drugging and sexually assaulting 12 of the women, in one case raping his victim.”

Sensational reading, that, but, alas for the anti-Jihad, not Jihad reading.

Brief web searching turns up a few stories about Muslims and cabs, this one involving a driver’s unprofessional behavior — Robinson, Martin.  “Muslim taxi driver dumps family out of his cab after spotting an unopened bottle of wine saying it was against his religion.”  Mail Online, April 14, 2012 — and this one an assault by a passenger on a Muslim driver: “Accrington bank boss assaulted taxi driver,” Lancashire Telegraph, January 18, 2013: “Shorrock, 43, of Dill Hall Lane, Church, pleaded guilty to assaulting Talib Hussain.”

The name “Talib Hussain” shows up in another, more recent report:

“A 62-YEAR-old taxi driver has appeared before Blackburn magistrates charged with indecently assaulting a 16-year-old girl.

The court heard the alleged assault happened outside a house in Accrington.”

Talib Hussain was to have appeared before the court yesterday (July 17, 2013), but I see no reports (yet) on that appearance.

Another incident cited, that involving Mohamed Hacene-Chaouch of “Catfor, south-east London” has been in the news recently — Duell, Mark, “Unlicensed Algerian cab driver is jailed for rape nine years after being cleared of near identical attack,” Mail Online, June 24, 2013 — and it turns out he had been cleared of similar charges a decade ago but not on the recent ones that have brought him a seven-year sentence.

Soeren Kern’s Gatestone piece, which is burning across the anti-Jihad web, however, goes on to list 27 cases backed by news reports, but, even so, in at least one case, what does one do with, “The attacker is described as Asian, around 40, 5ft6in tall and with a big stomach”?  (Stenhouse, Kate.  “Taxi drivers ‘sickened’ after cabbie sexually assaults teenage passenger,” Nottingham Post, June 12, 2013).

Unless a throaty “Alahu Akhbar!” was involved, the emphasis on “Asian” seems to me more xenophobic than analog, and then underscored perhaps by the British colloquial use of the term “Asian” to refer to the southeast Asian Islamic quarter.

Still, 27 cases minus one (or two — I’m not checking them all, and may gods of journalism have mercy on this humble old blogger) paint a picture:

Khalile Maqsood raped the 20-year-old at knifepoint after driving her to a deserted car park in Billingham last September.

He said the young woman, who refused his advances after he picked her up as she walked alone to a party, had led him on and had been “really up for it”.

MacKnight, Hugh.  “Jail term for taxi driver rapist Khalile Maqsood.”  The Independent, April 13, 2012.

Still, one might ask, who else is in jail on similar terms and perhaps white with strawberry freckles and as Christian as the Queen?

In January 2013, the Ministry of Justice (MoJ), Office for National Statistics (ONS) and Home Office released its first ever joint Official Statistics bulletin on sexual violence, entitled An Overview of Sexual Offending in England and Wales.

It reported that:

  • Approximately 85,000 women are raped on average in England and Wales every year
  • Over 400,000 women are sexually assaulted each year
  • 1 in 5 women (aged 16 – 59) has experienced some form of sexual violence since the age of 16.

Source: Rapecrisis England and Wales.

The source references a report from the Office for National Statistics.  A summary bulletin offering an “Offender histories” section provides no reference to demography: the histories refer to “previous offending of offenders convicted for sexual offences.”

The search string “Gatestone British taxi rape story” Googles up Iron Burka, Keep the shuttle flying, Silo Breaker, Bare Naked Islam.  Other similar search will yield other, similar coverage or replays like that on Frontpage.

I’ve no doubt the egocentric qualities, malignant and narcissistic, represented in the quotation caught by Hugh MacKnight, “He said the young woman, who refused his advances after he picked her up as she walked alone to a party, had led him on and had been “really up for it” denotes an attitude that has itself a story behind it, and it’s that story about attitudes toward women, temptation, locus of control and responsibility, and lack of restraint or containment of impulses that disturbs the civil state and most certainly works in the background to promote Soeren Kern’s report.

An attitude may reveal itself through the mouth (by words) or behavior (the “grope and rape” facet coursing around the last, most recent spate of demonstrations in Cairo), but it does not wear a badge, a skin color, an ethnicity, or a religion, although it may express itself through the qualities designed into or emphasized in that last item.

The kafir bring an unopened bottle of wine into a Muslim cabby’s domain, and he ejects them for violating the tenets of his religion.  In such a way, perhaps, he had felt his faith tested by what God, the commander of fate, had thrown into his path, albeit the rear bench of his work place.

A young drunk women needs a ride home, and perhaps the Muslim cabby — not all Muslims, not all cabbies, not all Muslim cabbies — sees in her a whore, an opportunity, an excuse for indiscretion, and what he’s going to do is not really his fault in any case . . . and then he does what he does and has the temerity in court to say what is or is equivalent to, “she led him on and was really up for it.”

Sure she was.

And you had a wife.

And children.

And work.

What were you thinking?

And in Her Majesty’s fine prison, what are you thinking now?
