Poster tells Muslims to "get the f*** out of our countries"

Poster tells Muslims to "get the f*** out of our countries"

Categories: Latest News

Friday August 21 2015

The Daily Mail reports on the presence of a Lord Kitchener style poster at The Moon on the Square pub in Feltham which tells Muslims to “get the f*** out of our countries”.

The poster, on display on a noticeboard at a JD Wetherspoon establishment in Feltham, Middlesex, was noticed by a customer.

The poster is the work of “Infidels against Islam/ The Infidel Brotherhood” and is modelled on the Lord Kitchener war recruitment poster. It features Lord Kitchener pointing his finger along with text which reads:

“MUSLIMS

Are you unhappy with our countries?

Are you offended by our culture?

Would you prefer to live under sharia law?

Get the f*** out of our countries, and go back to the monstrous s***holes you came from.

You can live under Muslim rule there and enjoy it as much as you like.”

The customer who noticed the offensive poster was at lunch with a Muslim colleague from work when he saw the poster pinned to a noticeboard on the wall on 20 August.

The customer said: “I’ll never go back to one of their pubs ever again. They should have employees making sure racist propaganda like this will not be tolerated in this country.”

A spokesperson for the pub chain apologised for the racist poster. In a statement, the pub said: “A poster was displayed on the notice board at The Moon on the Square, by a customer at the pub, without the knowledge of the pub staff.

“As soon as this came to light, staff immediately removed the discriminatory material.”

The choice of content for the poster is interesting given the references to Muslims being “offended” by “our culture”. The frequency with which the British press publishes articles about Muslims allegedly being “offended” by one thing or another is hardly, as the poster illustrates, without consequence.
