Muslim Council of Britain Spokesman Arrested in Stabbing Incident

World • Views: 3,132

Inayat Bunglawala of the Muslim Council of Britain, who worked at the same Reuters News Canary Wharf office from which we received a death threat in 2006, has been arrested in connection with a stabbing at his home.

A Muslim who advised the Government following the July 7 London bombings has been arrested after an alleged stabbing.

Inayat Bunglawala, 39, was held on suspicion of attacking another man at his £300,000 home.

Mr Bunglawala, who also briefed former Security Minister Tony McNulty on the threat posed by Islamic radicals in the UK, was arrested two weeks before Christmas last year.

The identity of the alleged victim is unknown and it is not clear what circumstances led to the alleged attack in the early hours of December 13 last year.

"But the MCB has enjoyed a renaissance under Gordon Brown and briefed Counter-Terrorism Minister Bill Rammell on community tensions last week. MCB representatives also advised Foreign Secretary David Miliband during last year’s Israel-Gaza War."

Perhaps the Brits could use Chas Freeman. He's seems about as objective as Bunglawala.

I've been reading a lot of Brit papers online. Whenever they report on some goober on welfare doing something gooberish they usually report on the price of the fellow's home, so the taxpayers can see how they're getting value for the money.

Now, that may not apply here. I'm not saying this gentleman is on the dole. I'm just saying.

I think we're all missing something here. To merely stab is a moderate act for a UK Muslim. I'm sure some media outlet will point that out and castigate the British people for not being grateful for Mr Bunghole's moderation.

The thing I keep remembering is the Jim Crow laws in the south. A black household could be searched for no reason and if anything that was deemed a weapon was found, it was bad for the residents. Usually the KKK would search the "target's" house by day and to make sure they would encounter no resistance when they came that night- wearing the masks of cowards, of course.

Critics claim his arrest will once again focus attention on the MCB.

In his final years as Prime Minister, Tony Blair came to distrust the organisation amid claims it was linked to Islamic extremism. But the MCB has enjoyed a renaissance under Gordon Brown and briefed Counter-Terrorism Minister Bill Rammell on community tensions last week. MCB representatives also advised Foreign Secretary David Miliband during last year’s Israel-Gaza War.

Melanie Phillips has explained that it is not "grievances" that drive Islamist extremism, it is religious ideology.

Bungy's efforts have been to persuade the British Authorities that the problem consists of just grievances, and so the solution is to try to appease the extremists. It doesn't work, because the manufactured "grievances" are just an excuse, and there is no end to the infinite list of possible "grievances", while the real driver is religious ideology.

Political Islam divides the world into us and them, the Dar al Islam and the Dar al Harb, and it mandates that Dar al Islam has to master the world, and Dar al Harb has to be eliminated. Everything else is just tactics. Sharia has to rule the world, period. And Bungy is just part of the good cop/bad cop routine that takes advantage of terrorism, and the threat of terrorism, to obtain concessions from the infidels, to help advance the goal of political Islam.

Mr Bunglawala has been released on bail while the Crown Prosecution Service considers bringing charges.


Why are they releasing him on bail while they consider bringing charges against him? Must be a real peculiarity of British law that you can make some one fork up bail when you haven't even charged him with a crime yet!
Not to say I'm defending this POS who threatened Charles, but it does seem weird, doesn't it?!

Here’s a small snippet:

“Inayat” is Inayat Bunglawala of the Muslim Council of Britain, a sinecurist whose talents were neatly encapsulated by Christopher Hitchens in Vanity Fair a few months ago: “A preposterous and sinister individual named Inayat Bunglawala, assistant secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain and a man with a public record of support for Osama bin Laden, was made a convener of Blair’s task force on extremism despite his stated belief that the BBC and the rest of the media are ‘Zionist controlled.’”

If Mr. Buglawala is such a violent man, with some suspected involvement in a knifing incident, then it is plausible that he may have been the source of the death threat to LGF that emanated from his office. In fact, speaking as a private individual and not as a juryman, it seems to me that Mr. Bunglawala would be the prime suspect for this death threat.

It is well past time for an investigation of that death threat that came from Mr. Bunglawala's office against LGF.

If Mr. Buglawala is such a violent man, with some suspected involvement in a knifing incident, then it is plausible that he may have been the source of the death threat to LGF that emanated from his office. In fact, speaking as a private individual and not as a juryman, it seems to me that Mr. Bunglawala would be the prime suspect for this death threat.

It is well past time for an investigation of that death threat that came from Mr. Bunglawala's office against LGF.

I agree. I've often wondered myself, and he's now clearly demonstrated he's a violent man. It should be taken seriously now as it should have been from the start.

Oldie but goodie.

John McCain and Barack Obama somehow ended up at the same barbershop. As they sat there, each being worked on by a different barber, not a word was spoken. The barbers were even afraid to start a conversation, for fear it would turn to politics.

As the barbers finished their shaves, the one who had Obama in his chair reached for the after shave.

Obama was quick to stop him saying, “No thanks, my wife Michelle will smell that and think I’ve been in a whorehouse.”

The second barber turned to McCain and said, “How about you?”

McCain replied, “Go ahead, my wife doesn’t know what the inside of a whorehouse smells like.”

Perhaps this was meant to plant ideas in our heads. After all, Mr. Bunglywungly's official current occupation is that he "runs a website," but he is also a member of an extremist Muslim front group, and some of those are known to have been subsidized by certain oil-rich foreign powers.

re: #74 realwest

Good evening y'all - I don't understand something from Charles' link:


Why are they releasing him on bail while they consider bringing charges against him? Must be a real peculiarity of British law that you can make some one fork up bail when you haven't even charged him with a crime yet!
Not to say I'm defending this POS who threatened Charles, but it does seem weird, doesn't it?!

This is what I found -

Forms of bail
In the UK there are three types of bail that can be given:

Police bail where a suspect is released without being charged but must return to the police station at a given time.
Police to court where having been charged a suspect is given bail but must attend his first court hearing at the time and Court given
Court bail where having already been in court a suspect is granted bail pending further investigation or while the case continues

re: #109 Sharmuta
I couldn't agree with you more Sharm, but I still don't understand how they could NOT charge this "person" and yet still make him post BAIL.
If he was suspected of murder or attempted murder in any of the US States, he'd at least be charged with that and maybe denied bail altogether.

I find that older novels are more understandable in Audio. Given the narrator knows what they are doing.

how so?...I've raised the issue of the invasion of Islam here and people just ignore the subject...there will be a showdown one day but nobody seems to want to discuss options...there is the rule of law...case closed

I just hope Americans wake up before it is too late. If America's future is in the hands of the children I teach right now we are in trouble. Not because of a lack of good teachers, but because parents have allowed their children to be selfish, self centered, narcissistic, and pleasure seeking. Those weak people will be easy to dominate so long as the 'bread and circuses' is provided.

Those who live by the sword, get shot by those who don’t.

Only if the other people have guns; the British government has worked to prevent them from having same. The crazy way the law works over there, if the man who had been stabbed had fought back and broken the Islamist's arm, he would have been the one charged with a crime.

Inayat Bunglawala, 39, was held on suspicion of attacking another man at his £300,000 home.

Mr Bunglawala, who also briefed former Security Minister Tony McNulty on the threat posed by Islamic radicals in the UK, was arrested two weeks before Christmas last year.

The identity of the alleged victim is unknown and it is not clear what circumstances led to the alleged attack in the early hours of December 13 last year.


But the thing to keep in mind is that there's this interesting batch of connections between Peter Parker Bunglar and Spidey Slit-the-throat Threatener, leading to the hunch that they might be the same person. And now, Bunglar is under arrest on charges of what violent crime? A stabbing. Hmm. Circumstances unclear. So---not a robbery. Not a fight over who's poaching on who's girlfriend. Not about money.

And this fellow is briefing the U.K. government about the threat posed by Islamic radicals. Does Her Majesty's government still think the fellow is as moderate as Muslims come?

Well that may well be true, but

The word Minnesota comes from the Dakota language name for the Minnesota River: Mnisota. The root Mni (also spelled mini or minne) means, "water". Mnisota can be translated as sky-tinted water or somewhat clouded water.[5][3] Native Americans demonstrated the name to early settlers by dropping milk into water and calling it mnisota.[5] Many locations in the state have similar names, such as Minnehaha Falls ("waterfall"), Minneiska ("white water"), Minnetonka ("big water"), Minnetrista ("crooked water"), and Minneapolis, which is a combination of mni and polis, the Greek word for "city

today at the factory outlet mall in castle rock I was shopping with the family for clothes and such., and I noticed (it wasnt hard) two different muslim families shopping the guys looked like suadi versions of gold chained extras from the movie goodfellas and thier wives were wearing burkas! literally only a rectangle for thier eyes to show.

and I actually watched two 14 year old american girls duck behind a pillar with horrified looks on thier faces and say allmost verbatim OH MY GOD THAT WAS SO CREEPY! they were still within earshot of the family.

I felt kinda sorry for them, them being the burka clad women. and felt like telling the men if they were gonna make thier women dress like that they should do us a favor and dress like that themselves.

oddly I cought one of the burka chicks looking at me a little too long as I me, and my wife walked by pushing a stroller...

This is at the end of the report:

A source at Bedfordshire Police claimed Mr Iqbal was sacked because he was 'not cut out to be a police officer. A spokesman added: 'We can't comment on a case that is yet to be heard but the evidence will speak for itself.

And from a comment:

He has been deemed as 'unsuitable' and his services have been dispensed with during his probationary period in accordance with Police Regulations.
It has nothing to do with his race or silly beard. He is the one who has brought that allegation forward, no doubt funded or 'supported' by another source.

re: #263 rumcrook

today at the factory outlet mall in castle rock I was shopping with the family for clothes and such., and I noticed (it wasnt hard) two different muslim families shopping the guys looked like suadi versions of gold chained extras from the movie goodfellas and thier wives were wearing burkas! literally only a rectangle for thier eyes to show.

and I actually watched two 14 year old american girls duck behind a pillar with horrified looks on thier faces and say allmost verbatim OH MY GOD THAT WAS SO CREEPY! they were still within earshot of the family.

I felt kinda sorry for them, them being the burka clad women. and felt like telling the men if they were gonna make thier women dress like that they should do us a favor and dress like that themselves.

oddly I cought one of the burka chicks looking at me a little too long as I me, and my wife walked by pushing a stroller...

whats the sense of buying nice name brand clothes at the outlet stores if your gonna hide em under a burlap sack..

Obama spokesman says he `enjoyed' watching Jon Stewart give lashing to Jim Cramer

Press secretary Robert Gibbs said he had spoken with President Barack Obama on Thursday about watching the Stewart-Cramer showdown.

"I forgot to e-mail and remind him that it was on, so I don't know if he's seen it," Gibbs said when asked by a reporter Friday. "I enjoyed it thoroughly."


Is this the same Robert Gibbs who can't ever answer a single question always claiming "I've not seen that so I can't comment on it" is apparently wasting his time watching Jon Stewart.

It does look pretty stupid. Even so, they shouldn't have laughed. Now the drums will be beated about how this proves the prevalence of "Islamophobia" while the Muslim cop collects a big, fat, settlement.

Mr Iqbal had only recently returned to work after a ninemonth leave of absence on full pay owing to depression when he was sacked for poor performance in August last year. He says he was the victim of untrue allegations, such as failing to report a rape claim. He insists the woman complained only of harassment at the time.

I've had fleeting fantasies about telling off people who, for instance, wear "stop snitching" shirts. I felt like doing that to an Obama shirt wearer a week ago.

The problem with starting public drama is, say you've told these gentlemen that they're a couple of poltroons who ought to be ashamed of themselves. That sets up the encounter as a fight in which you are the challenger. Even if your plan is NOT to involve yourself in a physical brawl, how do you intend to "win" such an encounter? How do you intend even to get out of there without making a public ass of yourself?

Does your congregation have volunteers as ushers? Particularly if you're lucky enough to find a Venezuelan, introduce these two to each other and watch the little Rage Against The Machine loser get scolded.

re: #327 victor_yugo

Easy. You shut them up by exposing their hypocrisy immediately. For example, when counter-protesting against the anti-war hypocrites, I hold a sign along these lines. Not one of the moonbats could answer it.

So the answer is just to wear counter-shirts. Easy enough if you're already wearing one... but we were talking about chance encounters.

Arby Dwiar:

Since you disagree with my comment that the "Modern Whig" party are faux moderates along the lines of Jim Jeffords: perhaps you would be so kind as to provide your reasons?

Also from that site, they proudly sport a blurb from those champions of moderation, the Huffington Post. And the day before Inauguration Day, it had this to say: "In addition, we also are experiencing the realization of a dream for so many and the potential beginning of a new day for all." Sounds like a true manifesto for a "loyal opposition", if we leave out the "opposition" part. There is constant prattle of how "mainstream" they are. And then there is this from 4 March:

The Modern Whig Party has received an influx in new members over the past week. This spike was attributed to the recent divisive controversy between moderate Republicans and extreme social conservatives within the GOP. As such, these new members are seeking a viable political home where they can find common ground with moderate Democrats in a manner where common-sense and rational thought trump ideology.

Political partisans are "moderate" and good when they meet together to form a consensus, like comprehensive immigration reform or corporate bailouts. Not like those extreme social conservatives (eek!) and the... uh, nah, we can't find anything bad to say about the Democrats.

The more I look at the Whig the more I see a weasel.

Dubbed Al Qaeda’s ‘Ambassador in Europe’, Abu Qatada gave religious authority to extremist groups in the UK and abroad, including the men behind the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Centre.

Last night, a BBC News source said: ‘We were right to call Abu Qatada an extremist and we would be happy to do so again.’

Why is Mr Bungie defending a guy that even the BBC calls an extremist? It seems like a downright stupid thing to do. Even Keith Olbermann isn't that dumb. BTW-Why do the most violent of the extremists have beards that a family of pack rats could live in?

A friend of a friend was once wearing a t-shirt with something on it that I questioned him about. I forgot what it was that prompted me to ask him about it. He responded by saying he had no idea what it was because he just buys t-shirts in a bag. They sell bags of t-shirts in thrift stores with all kinds of prints on them.

I have done it several times. Cook the cabbage separate. Ten hours in a crock pot makes for very tender corned beef and very overcooked cabbage.

Ah my friend that very well may be true. But folks who wear the "Che" shirt know exactly what they're wearing and why.
In fact, when that movie "Che" comes out I'm gonna watch it for historical accuracy and if they fuckin' make him out to be a saint or a "peoples revolutionary" or some sort of Guerrilla Warfare genius, I'm gonna get on their ass like white on rice.
Che was a murderer - not in the we're at war kind of murderer either; he literally gunned down unarmed and in some cases hands tied behind their backs "common" people. And he represented Fidel and Che and that's ALL. And one "A" Team from the US Army Special Forces (8th group in Panama) tracked him and his ragtag crew of revolutionaries down in a country the 12 men of the "A" team had never been in before in less than 2 weeks. Too bad the Bolivian Colonel gunned Che when the A team had him handcuffed to a bed and thereby made him a martyr.

Oakland Activist In Stable Condition In Tel Aviv

A veteran Bay Area activist was in stable condition on Saturday after being critically injured Friday evening during a protest against the building of a separation barrier in the Palestinian village of Naalin on the West Bank, according to his girlfriend.

Tristan Anderson, 38, of Oakland, underwent surgery to have part of his frontal lobe removed. As of Saturday he was on full life support and heavily medicated at Tel Hashomer hospital in Tel Aviv, his girlfriend Gabrielle Silverman said today in a telephone interview.

"My understanding is that they are trying to let his brain rest as much as possible and do as little work as possible," Silverman said.

Silverman, who said she has been dating Anderson for about a year, was with him when he was hit with a high-velocity tear-gas canister fired by Israeli armed forces, which caused him to suffer a fractured skull and major trauma to his face.

Guess he won't be doing that again.

Well if y'all change Liberal to Leftist, you'd have the same thing I said!
But as I said, they truly do worship a monster because he was BAD.
In point of fact the only thing Che really was BAD at was Guerrilla warfare - witness that A team of Special Forces ("Green Berets") going into a heavily jungled country none of them had ever been before and running his ass down and capturing him in a little under two weeks.

She said they underwent another 15-minute holdup at the checkpoint, the reason being, she said, that "Palestinian ambulances are not allowed to enter into the state of Israel from the West Bank."
"Tristan's life was in serious danger. He was bleeding terribly everywhere from the head," Silverman recounted. "We had to just sit and wait until eventually an Israeli ambulance from God knows where showed up and we had to change to another ambulance."

Hey honey, you know WHY they won't let the ambulances in? hmmm?

Folks, I'm going to try something again that I tried earlier on the previous thread. Charles has pointed out to me that links to survivalist type sites are in no way welcome here on LGF, so I'm not going to do that.

But I've been doing some reading on what happens when an economy goes belly up. Iceland, most recently, and Argentina before that. It's interesting. These are what I'd consider 'first world' type economies, and the people were, and are, far removed from the days when everyone was a 'rugged individualist' and provided for every need themselves.

I'm not talking about hiding in your compound fighting off hordes of starving countrymen. I'm not talking about stockpiling mounds of guns and ammo. I'm talking about simple things that happen and everyday goods and services that perhaps you, like I, just haven't thought of as being that important to a comfortable, safe, convenient life.

So I urge you to do some reading, and even more important, some thinking. , Reading about what actually does happen during an economic collapse and what strategies that citizens found helpful has surprised me in several ways. I am an optimist, especially where America is concerned. I think that we're going to come out of this economic downturn okay, eventually. I have a deep and abiding faith in my fellow countrymen. We often stumble, but we get up.

But as optimistic as I am, before I start the car I buckle my seat-belt.

re: #441 razorbacker

Even in perfectly normal times, many parts of the US are subject to natural disasters - floods, hurricanes, blizzards, earthquakes - and it only makes sense to be prepared.
And it isn't crazy to give some thought to pandemics, industrial accidents or terrorist attacks.
For those who've never given it any thought and have little to nothing on hand or planned, a good place to start, and one I don't think Charles would object to linking to, is here:

Dept. Homeland Security Emergency Planning

They have a lot of handy checklists and planning tools available on the website.

Once people have the basics covered, they can continue researching societal changes, elsewhere on the web.

re: #450 Killer Tomato

re: #451 Iron Fist

I figure that we (the wife and I) are better prepared than most. When we moved here the Sheriff was up front; don't expect help to arrive in time if some thief or worse shows up, we were told, so you'd best be prepared to defend your own self. So we got prepared.

Power was iffy. It's much better now, but every thunderstorm used to mean that power was out. So we got oil lamps and camping equipment to provide light, and as soon as possible got both a wood cookstove, a gas range, and an electric oven.

Heat is either wood, or heat pump, or both. It depends on the circumstance. I think we've used the heat pump prolly twice a year, once a year simply to make sure it still works.

Due to road conditions, we already own a 4 wheel drive.

We've always stockpiled food. Not because we're survivalists, but because both my wife and myself dislike shopping and want to do it as seldom as possible.

But still, what folks that have or are going through it have to say is eyeopening. For example, it never occurred to me that, for example, a lipstick would make a good...let's not call it a bribe...greaser to get your license renewed when the time comes. I'm not running out to stockpile lipsticks, but the idea is the same.

re: #248 NamDoc67

Of course, knife crimes have skyrocketed in the UK LINK since the total gun ban of 1997:LINK
Although the government spins it so hard, it is difficult to know if it is knife crimes that have increased, or the punishment of knife crimes, since so few crimes get punished at all.
And, of course, gun crimes have also skyrocketed in Merry Olde England.
Who would have guessed?

Gun control didn't come into force in 1997 in UK, the Labour party come into power and notice how crime including knife AND gun crime has rocketed. Such much for social democratic liberalism.

BTW, the explosion in knife crime in the major English cities is a recent occurrence it's been a problem up here in Scotland in the major cities and towns for decades. Found a link here about the razor gangs that were around in Glasgow after WW2.

More on Bungle, hus support for terrorists, and the Reuters-LGF affair:

In January 1993 Bunglawala wrote a letter to Private Eye
Private Eye, a satirical magazine, in which he called the blind Sheikh Omar Abdel-Rahman"courageous." After Abdel-Rahman's arrest on charges of masterminding the bombing of the World Trade Center
World Trade Center New York in July that year, Mr Bunglawala guessed that it was only because of his "calling on Muslims to fulfill their duty to Allah and to fight against oppression and oppressors everywhere". Five months before the September 11, 2001 attacks, Bunglawala also circulated writings of Osama bin Laden, whom he called a "freedom fighter", to hundreds of Muslims in Britain.

In May of 2006, Charles Johnson, the owner of political blog Little Green Footballs, received an e-mailed death threat that he traced back to Reuters
Reuters, where Mr. Bunglawala is employed.(*) Johnson believed it to be from Mr. Bunglawala, and provided circumstantial evidence to support the allegation. In the comment section of one of Bunglawala's editorials for The Guardian,(*) he first brushed off the threat as "Zionists...up to mischief", and then with a more detailed "I will repeat: I did not send any message to LGF. I have never sent any message to LGF either by email or through posting on their website. I wholeheartedly detest LGF and the space it gives to racist and anti-Muslim tirades."

Bunglawala opposed a government proposal to ban Hizb ut-Tahrir
Hizb ut-Tahriran Islamist organization, under Terrorism Act 2006
Terrorism Act 2006. Bunglawala sees the late Ahmed Yassin, the co-founder and leader of Hamas, as a renowned Islamic scholar. He has not supported the expulsion of the Muslim Association of Britain from the Muslim Council, although senior MAB member Azzam Tamimi supports suicide bombings in Israel. He said in response: "Let me make clear then, once and for all, we condemn the killing of all innocent people, wherever they are. Human lives everywhere are of equal value, whether they are British, American, Iraqi or Palestinian. Jewish lives are not worth more than Palestinian lives. All are worth equal and it's been quite nauseating over the past week to see how Israel and its highly-placed supporters in the media have been trying to make political capital out of last week's atrocities against Londoners. It is shameful on them and shameful on those who are trying to help Israel improve its PR image after the brutalities it commits against the Palestinian people."

How many times must he show violent tendencies before they decide to treat this bunghole as a violent person who belongs in jail?

Just another RoP stabbing.

Maybe his propensity towards criminal brutality has been 'honor' violence short of some killing and perfectly legit within the RoP...(even the thought is sick)

461 Pupdawg  Sun, Mar 15, 2009 9:22:36am

According to the Land Registry’s records, Mr Bunglawala bought his large Luton townhouse for £300,000 in August 2007.

I wonder if Mr. Bunghole is considered a 'community organizer' in England?

I also wonder if ACORN has connections in England?

I wonder if Mr. 'cornholio' Bunglawalapalooza is to receive some much needed stimulus from Mr. T 'moneybags' Obambi?

The identity of the alleged victim is unknown and it is not clear what circumstances led to the alleged attack.


That's a lot of alleging.
If you catch someone in your house without invitation, you don't allege that they're a burglar. You know that they are.
Alleged stabbing incident ? Did the victim have a knife wound or not ?

Inayat Bunglawala is a well known spokesman at Islamonazi headquarters
(aka theMCB)and has become less outspoken on behalf of the ROP of late.
He is a little weed of a man(circa 105 pounds)and has an annoying sneering tone of voice;when representing the muslim point of view.
What I have against him is that about a year ago. I sent him a souvenir mug
of Mo's marriage to Aisha and I got no note of thank you for my efforts.
It will be interesting to see what transpires; as Bungo is about as physically intimidating as Woody Allen

468 sas  Sun, Mar 15, 2009 4:13:57pm

Law of attraction: Bungie threatened Charles with a knife to the throat then reality manifests as Bungie stabbing another person. ROP strikes again.
