The Islamist flag of Jihad being flown during a protest in London (video snippet)

In a dramatic revelation that underscores the vast extent of Islamist influence within England, a recent survey has unearthed astonishing levels of support for Hamas among British Muslims. An alarming 46% of respondents threw their backing behind the group, notorious for its acts of terror. This starkly contrasts with the mere 25% of UK Muslims who acknowledge the heinous crimes of murder and rape committed by Hamas terrorists during the chilling events of October 7 in Israel.

This eye-opening poll, orchestrated by the Henry Jackson Society, a prominent London-based think tank, casts a stark light on the sentiments harbored within the British Muslim community towards Hamas and its brutal onslaught on October 7. That day witnessed a horde of Hamas terrorists breaching Israeli borders, leaving a trail of over a thousand dead and numerous civilians ensnared as hostages, subjected to unspeakable atrocities.

Further compounding concerns is the perception among nearly half of the British Muslim respondents (46%) that Jews wield excessive influence, a belief shared by only a scant 16% of the broader British populace. This signals a troubling trend that could be indicative of deep-seated biases and misinformation.

The situation in England has escalated to a visible crisis, with Islamists seemingly tightening their grip on the country. A colossal rally saw over 200,000 demonstrators flooding the streets of central London, clamoring for an immediate halt to hostilities in Gaza. Spearheaded by groups like the Palestine Solidarity Campaign and featuring speeches from high-profile figures such as Jeremy Corbyn, the event was a stark display of the burgeoning Islamist-led political force in the UK, one that appears intent on imposing its will and intimidating those who oppose it.

This Islamist presence has reached a critical juncture, exerting unprecedented pressure on British political life. Notably, in February a throng of Islamist protestors outside the parliament prompted a significant alteration in parliamentary procedures, underlining the tangible threat they pose to the democratic process and the safety of MPs.

Amidst this backdrop of intensifying scrutiny and concern over the UK's stance towards Israel, British Foreign Minister David Cameron has made it clear that while the UK remains a committed ally of Israel, this support is contingent upon Israel's adherence to international humanitarian law. Cameron's recent comments came in the wake of an Israeli airstrike in Gaza that tragically ended the lives of seven aid workers, including three British citizens, thrusting the humanitarian crisis in Gaza into the spotlight once again.

This tumultuous series of events and revelations paints a picture of a nation grappling with the challenges posed by Islamist extremism and the implications for its foreign policy and societal cohesion.
