&lt;blockquote&gt;
This is simply virulent anti-Semitic Islamist smearing.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

No its simply a fact. Given the I/P conflict the Jewish Chronicle isnt an unbiased source on Muslim affairs anymore than al-Quds al-Arabi is an unbiased source on Jewish affairs.

Whats with the &quot;Islamist&quot;? how do  you claim to know  your posters religious/political affiliations ? You simply call anyone who disagrees with you an &quot;Islamist&quot; much as the far left call anyone who disagrees wth them a &quot;facist&quot; or right wing Americans called anyone a &quot;communist&quot; or zionists call anyone an &quot;anti-semite&quot;. Its laughable.

Your hysterical emotional rhetoric severly undermines your argument

&lt;blockquote&gt;Try addressing the issues rather than attacking the sources or people making the remarks. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

But when the source itself is problematic how is that possible?

&lt;blockquote&gt;
What is it with personal abuse and Islamists?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>Rob Griffiths  was the Chair of the conference - and happens to be the General Secretary of  the Communist Party of Britain. The conference was organised and run by the CPB - it even took place at its usual Welsh venue.

Do learn to read,

&lt;blockquote&gt;Since when was the Jewish Chronicle a non-biased reliable source on Muslim affairs? You at Spitton really nail your bias to the mast, dont you.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

This is simply virulent anti-Semitic Islamist smearing.

		<description>&#039;Asim is Salafi&#039; - please show me any quote, anywhere, from this guy Hafeez, where he says that he is Salafi? I&#039;d be keen to see it.

Reassuring to see Spittoon disagreeing with the assertion that Hafeez is an Islamist, but the JC article is an attack on someone&#039;s personal beliefs, barely disguised as sloppy journalism. It is disapoiting that Spittoon has repoduced it here.

what do we learn? that an adviser has strong religious views? stop press! any evidence, and i mean evidence as opposed to groundless claims, that this has had any impact on his work? umm....</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Preventing violent extremism: Community leadership fund guidance&lt;/i&gt;, April 2008, Department for Communities and Local Government, asserted that:

&lt;blockquote&gt;This grant fund is intended to support work that will build the capacity of individuals, organisations and communities to take the lead on tackling violent extremist influences.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

The document goes on to state:

&lt;blockquote&gt;All funding is limited to projects taking place in England. If you are considering a project in Wales please contact:

&lt;b&gt;Asim Hafeez &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Amazingly, given Hafeez&#039;s views, one would apply to him just in case one might show that:

&lt;blockquote&gt;All work should result in a clear improvement in the ability of the organisation or community to tackle violent extremism and their resilience to extremist ideas and influences.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
