Roger condemns YouTube video 'Innocence of Muslims' as gratuitous.
Posted by Roger Godsiff, MP for Birmingham, Hall Green, at 09:36, Mon 8 October 2012:
Roger said: “This film has already been condemned, in the strongly possible terms, by the American President and Hillary Clinton, his Secretary of State, and I share their condemnation.”
He went on to say: “I deplore gratuitous attacks on anybody’s religious beliefs but it is quite obvious that the makers of film wanted to be as controversial as possible in order to maximise their financial gain from the resulting publicity - which their nasty little film was guaranteed to evoke. It would have been much better if the video had been totally ignored by everybody because the makers would have failed in their objectives of getting publicity and financial gain from it.
Mr Godsiff concluded: “Because the video was produced in America the British Government has no powers to take action against the makers of the video but if a similar one was made in this country then there might well be powers under the laws against ‘inciting racial hatred’ for the authorities to initiate proceedings.”

Condumnation per se is not enough if no actions are taken against the culprits who are Americans - the writer, the produces, the financiars, the maker of the film, etc. As it is Britain is the puppet of American. Politicians have more sympathy for Jews cause than the Muslims cause, then why are they concerned? The obvious reason is that they want Muslim votes who are treated as third class citizens. It is high time that the Muslims wake up and unite under one banner of Islam and have their own political party, say Moderate Muslim Party(MMP) which will ensure that the Muslims have a voice by having some MPs in the Parliament. The Muslim MPs will also have a say in un-Islamic practices (like homosexuality, loan sharks, casino banking, etc.) which is ruining the good people of this country.

I have seen a bit of this film and it is complete rubbish but so what. Certainly no reason to kill anyone. My advice - don't watch it.

Deliberate tacktick is employed to incite the Muslims and who are being killed? It is the innocent Muslims in demostration and not the producer of the film. The questions are: why make the film in the first place, why show it in the utube and then the suggetion don't watch it does not make sense.

I must agree with you Mr Godsiff, anyone in their right mind knew it would cause trouble, obviously america had their heads buried in the sand! The same thing has been done by Cameron, he has incited hatred for disabled people and more abuse and attacks have taken place on disabled people since he took over.
