Channel 4's documentary 'Dispatches / Undercover Mosque: The Return', which first aired on Monday, 1st September, claims anti-Semitism and homophobia are being preached at a leading British mosque.

"A female reporter attends prayer meetings at an important British mosque which claims to be dedicated to moderation and dialogue with other faiths." said Channel 4. "She secretly films shocking sermons given to the women-only congregation in which female preachers recite extremist and intolerant beliefs. As hundreds of women and some children come to pray, a preacher calls for adulterers, homosexuals, women who act like men and Muslim converts to other faiths to be killed, saying: "Kill him, kill him. You have to kill him, you understand. This is Islam.""

The programme will also feature Muslims and Islamic academics who reject and condemn these teachings of intolerance and segregation and warn of the impact this version of Islam is having on British society.

In May Channel 4 and independent film maker Hard Cash accepted damages and an apology at the High Court following a row over the original Undercover Mosque documentary, broadcast in January 2007. The Dispatches programme showed preacher Abu Usamah at Green Lane Mosque in Birmingham calling for gay people to be executed.

    • This is no surprise. Just look what happened to Dutch politician Pym Fortuyn who campaigned against Islamists taking over the Netherlands or Theo Van Gogh who made a film that was critical of Islam. Muslims murdered them!
      Fundamentalist Islam with its hatred of Christians, Jews, Hindus, every other religion, women who are not third-class beasts of burden and homosexuals is a threat to all of Western civilization.
      For a good book on the rise of Islamist influence in Europe, read gay author Bruce Bawer's "While Europe Slept: How Radical Islam is Destroying the West from Within." Also, be sure to watch Geert Wilders' "Fitna" on the web. It's a short film with a long-lasting impact; it's chilling!
