update on Extremism

According to Baroness Neville Jones, who told Today presenter Justin Webb-  A new prevent strategy which will aim to tackle extremism as well as terrorism is being launched by the British government.

This will lead to a change in funding policy."The government feels quite strongly that it is not the job of government to be financing groups, which it was, which espouse quite different values," to British ones, she said.
But Azad Ali, chair of the Muslim Safety Forum and an adviser to the previous Labour government, said the new policy was "a conflation between security and cohesion".The Prevent strategy, he said said, was supposed to be a "counter-terrorism strategy, it isn't an ideology strategy".

The photographs that the BBC online articles have- include signs that say 'ISLAM WILL DOMINATE THE WORLD' further creating prejudice towards islamic religious groups. The backing behind this strategy grows stronger because of the media terminology used to describe Islam as a domination, a movement and an extreme group that should be de-powered. This is all speculation and propaganda.... what can the public do than to be ignorant about a religion that they know nothing about... their first instinct is to follow the direction of the media persuasion.... one area of the industry that I am about to enter that I do not approve of. Persuading the public, in an area that may be unjust and unfair to a particular group. Its not at all what I would call Fair.
