Video on ‘progressive’ Muslim women deleted after guest’s hater history surfaces

UK Public broadcaster Channel4 News aired a film presented by reporter Assed Baig showcasing Muslim women who “fight back by rejecting stereotypes”. The film heaped praise Nadia Chan, who also happens to hold extremist views.

    Channel4 produced the short documentary celebrating a woman with a history of posting violent, racist, and religious extremist rhetoric online as an example of a Muslim role model. The woman introduced herself in the report by saying: “My name is Nadia Chan and I have a masters in law. I describe myself as an anti-colonial Islamist.”

    Viewers who looked into Chan’s online history following the broadcast last Thursday, found a Twitter account filled with racial slurs against white and mixed-race people, and support for terrorism.

    Channel 4 has meanwhile pulled the report and video from its website and deleted tweets promoting the piece. A Channel 4 News spokesman said: “Last Thursday, Channel 4 News broadcast a report looking at the role of Muslim women in British society. Following inflammatory comments made online by one of the women featured after the pre-recorded interview took place, we decided to remove the piece while we investigate further.”

    Chan described the Irish as “parasites” and called for violent militancy against the British government and white people. She has also called on Muslims to support “armed resistance from the Islamic Jihad,” on Islamic state TV.

    Chan’s tweets ranged from open hostility against whites, racist quotes by Robert Mugabe, and calls for violence against the police. “The only white man you can trust is a dead white man,” she wrote, quoting Mugabe.

    “We need straight up militancy, they trying to kill us and they’re getting brave. These honkies will kill more unless they are stopped,” she wrote. She describing whites as “parasites” and “cave people” in various tweets, because Europeans were “given” the invention of soap by Muslims. “Actually Muslims (90 percent Pakistan is Muslim) clean themselves 5 times a day, unlike u dirty white cave parasites, muslims gave y’all soap remember.”

    She expressed her dislike for mixed-race people with one European parent with comments like “[your] mum’s white ew [disgust] lol,” and “My condolences to you bitches whith white mums, but keep any reference to PAKISTANIS out of your mf’ering mouth you SWINE!”

    Channel4 quickly deleted the tweet linking to the 6-minute documentary following outrage from the public.

    The reporter Assed Baig who invited Chan, had been reprimanded earlier for calling Muslims “sell outs and Uncle Toms” for attending UK government iftars. The investigative journalist Baig attacked moderate Muslims with racial insults including “house Muslim”, even claiming that British Muslims who attend Islamic events hosted by the government were too obedient to whites.

    Baig also slurred Ahmadiyya Muslims and said British soldiers were not worthy of praise. “They are not my boys or ‘our’ boys… Since when did we start calling paid soldiers, with Kevlar protection, air support, heavy machine guns, armoured vehicles and tanks heroes?”

    The UK government has expressed concern over “hate speech” from conservatives, but the UK Public Service Broadcaster was clearly not worried about inviting Chan.

    A white British law student is meanwhile being investigated by his university after allegedly mocking Islamic State (ISIS) on social media, RT reported.

    Robbie Travers, a third-year-law student at Edinburgh University, is being investigated for a “hate crime”. No criminal investigation, however, has been opened by the police.

    Travers posted his reaction on the US bombing an ISIS stronghold in April. “I’m glad we could bring these barbarians a step closer to collecting their 72 virgins,” Travers wrote.
