Leftism in Action: UK Gave Billions to Jihad Terrorist Groups

And this isn’t even the only way that the West is bringing on its own destruction.

Shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain has become notorious in recent years for a two-tier justice system in which Muslim migrants receive preferential treatment over native Britons. Those who dare to protest this and other injustices are prosecuted to the full extent of the law, while the Labour government continues to cover up Muslim rape gang activity and turn a blind eye to migrant criminality in general. Yet the British government is still finding new ways to shock and appall free people both inside and outside the country with the full extent of its craven criminality and capitulation to forces that would destroy the nation.

The Daily Mail reported Monday that Britain “gave more than £28 billion in taxpayer cash to its enemies over six years, a leaked government dossier revealed last night.” It seems unbelievable, and if only were. But it is true: heavy-laden British taxpayers, already supporting massive numbers of Muslim migrants who arrive in the country and immediately go on welfare as a substitute for the jizya they believe that non-Muslims owe them, have been supporting not just one, but several entities that want to see them dead.

The Mail notes that “terrorists such as the Islamic State in Syria group, hostile states including Russia and criminal gangs received the vast sum from foreign aid, Covid relief loans and the benefits system, which an expert said was an ‘ATM for terrorists.’” This is what the land of Richard the Lionhearted, William Wallace and Winston Churchill has come to: in its death throes, the Sceptered Isle has become not only the land of Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam, Sadiq Khan, and Humza Yusaf, but it is now reduced to the state of being an “ATM for terrorists.”

To dramatize such a pathetic state of pusillanimity would be beyond even the formidable powers of William Shakespeare. Britain, the land that once established an empire upon which the sun never set, is now a rotted fruit that is still on the vine, still being consumed from within courtesy of its leftist political class, and ready for plucking at the hands of the Sharia-adherent Muslims who more and more frequently boast about their imminent takeover.

As if funding ISIS weren’t bad enough in the first place, the more one reads into the Daily Mail story, the worse the situation gets. The report “revealed that Britain helped companies linked to the Chinese military pursue their own research between 2015 and 2021.” So add the People’s Republic of China to Russia and ISIS on the list of the enemies of Britain on the British taxpayer dole.

And even that isn’t all: “Much of the misappropriated funds went to criminal gangs, including human traffickers claiming housing benefits and disability allowances.” Rebecca Harding of the Centre for Economic Security said that “threats from adversaries, state actors and non-state actors that go through the business system. It is economic warfare, and we have been naive about all of this.” Naïve to the point of suicidal. All this is the result of the same assumptions that led politicians at all points on Britain’s political spectrum to open the doors to mass Muslim migration; the worst of these assumptions was the apparently unshakable belief that it is the responsibility of Britain, and of the West in general, to solve the problems of everyone in the world. Anyone who is experiencing any difficulty can come to Britain, or continental Europe, or the U.S. or Canada, and find refuge.

Another key false assumption is that the influx of these “refugees,” many of whom have not, in fact, come from areas that are a war zone, and were not actually in any danger, but are simply economic migrants, will not affect the host society in any adverse way, and that anyone who thinks otherwise is a racist, bigoted “Islamophobe.” Then there is the idea that giving money to ISIS in Syria, and to China and Russia, will achieve the short-term ends for which it was given, without causing any long-term harm to Britain or to any other country.

All these false assumptions are unraveling at once. The Mail notes that “Professor Nicholas Ryder, a former adviser to the Commons home affairs committee and an expert on terrorism funding, said the findings were ‘staggering’, adding: ‘The link between fraud and terrorist financing is very clear.’”

Indeed. The British people have been robbed on a massive scale, and it’s still going on. The money has gone to people who wish to enslave and destroy them. The present group of British politicians will be remembered in history as some of the most criminal traitors ever to walk the planet, who sold their country out and allowed it to be destroyed in pursuit of leftist false ideas and short-term electoral gain. Hitler, the destroyer of Germany, was a piker compared to David Cameron, Theresa May, and Keir Starmer, the destroyers of Britain.
