Learning from the Gypsy community

A while ago on the forums I was linked to a Channel 4 Production titled "My Big Gypsy Wedding" - a look at the gypsy community, its challenges and its customs.

It was quite an eye opener for me and I think we should envy some of the things they have accomplished and others they have managed to keep. Ideas that many Muslims are rebelling against, they have managed to keep. Using words written by Rawrrs to describe a few of the things I am talking about:

The parents don't want kids to drink, smoke, do drugs, or go out on their own/without their permission.

No 'relations' before marriage

The Mahdi Army

Ya Ali Madaad.

The Mahdi Army was formed in 2003. It was the force of resistence of Shia muslims against the immoral and evil occupation of Iraq by the American military.

Mahdi Army was under the command of Motada Al Sadr, son of an Ayatollah.

In 2004, for the first time ever, the Satanic forces of Pentagon confronted the Mehdi Army, and lost.

At the start of the year 2004, the American General had made a vow: "To kill or capture Al Sadr and destroy the Mahdi Army." He ordered his troops to take on the Mehdi Army...

Channel SEx Education show wants to hear your story

Dear Revival,

I hope you don’t mind me contacting you directly. I’m writing from the independent television production company, Remarkable TV, an Endemol Company. We are currently making the third series of the critically acclaimed and groundbreaking Channel 4 series, The Sex Education Show. The previous two series gained plaudits from both health and education professionals with its fun but factual approach to sex education, aimed at both teenagers and adults.

@londonmuslim - people are only responsible for their own actions

Apparently London Muslim is not happy that when the mother in law of a London bomber spoke to the media, it was about the effect on her family and not an apology to the victims.

Here is news for you - she did not blow anybody up. She has nothing to apologise for.

Be as fiery as you like but the fact is she did not kill anyone, nor is there any suggestion that she promoted such activity.

Enough is enough. We should stop forcing people to apologise for things they did not do.

Her offering an apology for the London Bombings is like me apologising for the slave trade.

you aint real bro cus what you spitting aint the truth

you aint real bro cus what you spitting aint the truth,
Why you tying to kill em? me i'm tryina save the youth.
The futures not a nice place, to me it seems so bleak,
Everybody's seen a rhyme of mine but i don't let it leak.
I'm the girl you see everyday but u wont even know it.
Im the girl who cries when shes alone but i don't show it.
If you got close enough to feel what i'd felt abit,
You would know it aint easy u might feel bad abit.
Cus judging somebody you aint even ever spoke to
Aint the right move, not something that this girl would do.
I've been judged manyt times both rightly and wrongly.
So many things people think just would never even fit me.
I aint half the girl that you imagine me to be.
And i dont really care think whateva you wana think of me.
