Another opinion from the naïve.
Or *cough* .. it's just a bit .. *cough* .. desperate .. *cough* ..
Desperate in what way? What do you mean?
This thread has left the cat amongst the pigeons. The reason it won't 20 pages of responses as you can't really bash muslims on here.
Presumably a fishing expedition for another outrage story?
Sorry, but "You can't really bash muslims on here" has to one of the most naive things i've ever read on DS. Not a day goes by when Muslims and Islam aren't "bashed" in some form or another in GD.
You only have to read any of the plethora of anti-religious threads on here to see proof of that.
And by "desperate" I mean that when does someone trolling another forum and getting found out warrant an entire thread on this forum unless Islam is involved in some fashion ?
That's how it seems to me!
Must've been reading DS and thought, "Ah, that's how you do it!"
Am I not reading it right? A journalist from a national newspaper known for not being particularly kind to muslims signing up to a Muslim forum to troll seems a bit... unethical... to me!
The OP is quoting a thread from a UK Muslim forum.
In it a supposedly disaffected youth is posting about pledging allegiance to the ISIS caliphate in Iraq and Syria.
Unfortunately for the poster in question, the moderators of the forum are able to see the IP address of the poster, and that IP address range belongs to the Evening Standard or Daily Mail.
So the allegation is that the Daily Mail are posting pro-terrorism propaganda to internet message boards in the hope that somebody replies positively to it, so they can run scare stories about muslim extremism on the web.
We don't have much proof of the originating IP of course, but it seems to me to be grounds for a police investigation into Associated Newspapers committing a criminal offense.
Right, ta.
So a case of the Daily Mail or Evening Standard deliberately spreading lies in order to shit stir ? Very reprehensible if true.
I hope the police are contacted.
I agree with you. I was talking about this thread in particular whereby it will not allow ds users to release their xenophobia.
If it turns out that the person in question is a journo working for either national newspaper then yes, it's very unethical and probably does warrant further investigation.
Presented as-is, it's just a feeble trolling attempt.
Have I misread the post? I didn't think this was about "bashing muslims", but about the lengths the Daily Mail and their stablemates go to to inflame bad feelings about muslims?
I think that's the point being made?
As this isn't a Muslim bashing thread there isn't much interest.
Daily Mail journalists are posing as jihadists in forums in an attempt to stir up reactions that might lead to another "Muzlimz are Eeevil" story.
Well, if the IP does 'belong' to the OP of that thread then they do work for the DM.
160-odd thread views to 20-odd replies. Tbh, I think the reason it hasn't got much interest is because the thread title and OP doesn't really explain it very well, the thread title isn't going to attract that much interest as it doesn't really state what's happened.
Also the forum is kinda quiet atm.
Wasn't it more a case of pretending to be a British Muslim urging other British muslims to join the Caliphate and declare war on the west.........
So presumably the Mail can then run a 'shock horror British muslims declare war on Tunbridge Wells' story.......
