Morning.











1. I did a video condemning the repression of protests by the Iranian government but also opposing foreign intervention. I stand by that position. I really don't care whether you retweeted it or not, but that is me on the record. 2. Again, please stop putting words in my mouth. It is utterly dishonest of you. I didn't refer to all "Iranian activists" as "raging Islamophobes", I said a lot were (and check my replies, a lot of them proudly say they are), and I specifically was responding to clear bigotry from Alinejad, targeting a Muslim mayor who faces constant Islamophobic attacks for celebrating a world hijab day designed to protect Muslim women in hijabs who face constant physical attacks by Islamophobes, as you know. Not sure how attacking World Hijab Day or the hijab itself helps the Iranian protest movement. 3. This argument of yours that because the Iranian government does bad things in the name of Islam, therefore Islamophobia is justified is a strange one. Would you say the same about antisemitism? Would you condemn Jews here in the West for wearing yarmulkes or going to synagogue because settlers in yarmulkes on the West Bank who go to synagogue are attacking and killing Palestinians? That would be a thoroughly bigoted position to take against Jews worldwide, so not sure why you support taking a similar stance against Muslims worldwide. 4. I have followed you for a while so I am responding, but I can no longer take you seriously as a good-faith interlocutor if you stand by Spiked, a rightwing bigoted outlet which has specifically targeted and smeared me in recent years. 5. Lastly, my original point still stands. Whether you like it or not, a lot of Muslims see pro-Shah Iranian disaspora activists saying horrific things about Islam and Muslims as a whole and therefore hold back any support for the protesters. I was making a practical point that if you want to secure support for your movement in the wider Muslim world, which I assume you do, maybe don't engage in bigotry against the wider Muslim world.


🚨 Critics believe Brighton have squandered around £300m over the past four transfer windows due to the club’s determination to be governed by data. It’s believed the club were warned off Eiran Cashin, but signed him regardless due to strong data reports. [@Matt_Law_DT] #bhafc
