Does anyone think this is a good idea? The EU (a commission part of the EU) are ordering Brittian to keep its media from disclosing when terroists are Muslim.

Not only is that etreme censorship but most people would figure it out anyway when a terrorst attack occcurs and no one reported on who may have done it or who is taking resposibility-  

For the record the Britts do not have to abide by this orde and so far are not- aybe another reason to be pleased with Brexit?

I'm a Muslim and I disagree with this law, but I also disagree with how the media currently handle it. They either name the religion of every terrorist / criminal or they name non. 

 

Secondly, they need to understand the difference between a Muslim and a Khawarij. 



"ordering" ? Typical anti EU bullshit and people like you are falling for it.

Some facts:
1. The ECRI is not the EU. Just like a British policeman is not the United Kingdom.
2. The ECRI doesn't have the power to order a country to do anything.
3. The article even calls it "recommendation" and that's exactly what this is.

Britan is soon out of the EU so there is no problem. I think this is because its mentioned when its a muslim and not mentioned when its a christian which produces the subjective feeling only muslims are to blame. UK will leave until march 2019 so its all good no?



Forgot to say, the free world has never been free for a good few millenia if not more. We live under the Illusion of freedom and democracy. It may not be as screwed up as the middle east or North Korea, but we have our problems - not better or worse, but certainly issues that are getting worse.

Take my city Leicester. 4-5 years ago the child poverty in the city hit around 80k. This is in a city and county of about 680k. This number doesn't include adults. Secondly, Leicester was not the worst hit as they are towns and cities which are worse.

I quoted the article-  the fact is the EU is trying to "lean on the Britts to censre its media- 

THe EU has caused a lot of problems for its member nations -  I understood it was supposed to help Europe compete better on a global scale but as is often the case politics have tainted the it

If a religion is a "rallying point" or core to a particular terrorists groups actions then yes religion is imprtant to name-  If not then it may not be anymore important than naming their favorite sports team- 

If a terrorist group from a muslim nation is making attacks because they are narco terrorists or some other non reliogion non Mulslim  reason and they just happen to be Muslim then I see no reason to make an issue of it at that point either-  but so far that has not often been the situation

I agree-  I m american and even the basic freedoms expressed in our Constitutions have been eroded just in my lifetime

That is an amazing (amazingly sad) statistic about the child poverty levels in Leicester-  What are the basic causes behind those high poverty rates?

Third World immigration, absolutely bleeding local councils dry. Where I live, most of the children and families living in poverty are the native Brits. Migrants get pushed to the front of the que. This in turn makes the locals bitter, and they're then branded racist for daring to complain. A totally miserable situation.

The UK is absolutely crumbling, and in my personal opinion, forced mass immigration is to blame. I see absolutely no benefit in a Somalian family arriving here here with 7 kids, to be housed, educated, given free healthcare and cash, with the family having zero intention of working. What makes it even more insulting, is we're supposed to be grateful for their diversity, they don't bring anything to the table and they're not wanted or needed here.

Blame cultural Marxism and The Frankfurt School...

As for not being allowed to name terrorists if they're Muslim? They're already kept off the chart for racist attacks and murder, see Charlene Downs & Paige Chivers for a great example, all in the name of social cohesion. This is just another page in the Leftie diversity book.



They are not ordered to do anything. They're recommended not overstress the religious background of perpetrators of terrorist acts.
