Charia au Royaume-Uni: 45 écoles islamiques épinglées (rediff)

Addendum du 23.11.2010 : Le président de l’Islamic Human Rights Commission accuse le programme “Panorama” de la BBC qui a révélé l’existence de ces manuels “éducatifs”, de créer des clivages en se focalisant sur une sélection d’écoles musulmanes qui auraient prôné l’antisémitisme. (Source)

Après un rapport d’expert de 2008 ayant relevé que 60% des écoles musulmanes ont des enseignements criminels, après la révélation par le Times que la moitié des mosquées anglaises sont « Déobandies », la même tendance que les Talibans, une nouvelle enquête discrédite encore la vision d’un islam fondamentalement modéré…

5000 enfants sont inscrits à des « weekend schools » au sein d’établissements dont certains logés dans des murs appartenant à l’Arabie Séoudite, où est enseignée la Charia la plus orthodoxe. Au programme : châtiments corporels, extermination des homosexuels, haine du juif…Un documentaire de la BBC, Panorama investigation, a révélé cette réalité suscitant une vive polémique outre-manche…David Cameron pourra-t-il encore longtemps traiter de dangereux extrémistes l’English Defense League dénonçant l’islam conquérant et totalitaire dans son pays ?

« Children in Britain are being taught brutal Sharia law punishments, including how to hack off a criminal’s hand or foot.

So-called ‘weekend schools’ – which offer the hardline Saudi National Curriculum to Muslim children in the UK – also teach that the penalty for gay sex is execution and that ‘Zionists’ are plotting to take over the world for the Jews. 

One set text book challenges youngsters to list the ‘reprehensible’ qualities of the Jews. 

Another for six year-olds asks them to answer what happens to someone who dies who is not a believer in Islam. The answer being looked for is ‘hellfire’. 

A BBC Panorama investigation, to be screened tonight, identified a network of more than 40 weekend schools teaching around 5,000 children, from age six to 18.

The schools are run under the umbrella of ‘Saudi Students Clubs and Schools in the UK and Ireland’. 

They are not state-funded, and do not use Government buildings. They are able to exploit a loophole which means weekend schools are not inspected by Ofsted.

Last night, experts at the Policy Exchange think-tank warned that similar extremists could seek to exploit the Government’s policy of giving greater freedoms from state control to free schools and academies. 

They call for the establishment of a Due Diligence Unit to check whether those applying to open the schools have an extremist background. 

Current checks are largely limited to fraud, criminal convictions and funding.Education Secretary Michael Gove, who is believed to be supportive of the idea, said he would not tolerate anti-Semitism and homophobia in English schools.

The Panorama investigation identified a book for 15 year-olds being used in the classes which teaches about Sharia law and its punishments.It says: ‘For thieves their hands will be cut off for a first offence, and their foot for a subsequent offence.’ 

There are diagrams showing children where cuts must be made.One passage says: 

‘The specified punishment of the thief is cutting off his right hand at the wrist. Then it is cauterised to prevent him from bleeding to death.’

For acts of ‘sodomy’, children are told that the penalty is death and it states a difference of opinion whether this should be done by stoning, or burning with fire, or throwing over a cliff.

Panorama alleges that a building used for one of the schools, in Ealing, West London, is owned by the Saudi government Lire la suite
