Ashura is a bloody Shi’ite Muslim ritual where the men beat themselves to a bloody pulp. Muslims flagellate themselves and their children with whips and chains until bloody to lament the death of our former President’s namesake, Hussein. And they share knives, thereby bringing this new viral blood infection into Britain. More of the poison fruit of mass Muslim migration. Britain is lost, but why is this savagery tolerated in the US, considering that blood-borne illnesses are so hazardous? This should be banned as a matter of disease control. But it’s more important to adhere to and to respect the sharia and not offend Islam. That is the priority.
“Mystery infections traced to blood-shedding religious ritual,” by Mike Stobbe, Associated Press, March 13, 2019 (thanks to Wendy):
NEW YORK (AP) — Add self-flagellation to the list of ways to get a dangerous viral blood infection.
Story continues below advertisementResearchers said Wednesday that they were initially puzzled how 10 British men had become infected with a little-known virus, because the men hadn’t taken risks usually associated with the infection.
But then investigators learned they had participated in blood-shedding religious rituals — cutting or whipping themselves — in Iraq, Pakistan, India and the United Kingdom.
“There have been suggestions that you might spread infections through this route, but it has never been described before” in a published medical study, said Dr. Divya Dhasmana of St. Mary’s Hospital in London….
The men were infected with human T-cell leukemia virus type 1. Most people infected with the virus never develop symptoms, but some develop terrible illnesses, like a deadly blood cancer or a debilitating nervous system condition.
HTLV-1 spreads through breastfeeding, sex, blood transfusion and sharing of needles. Experts have estimated that up to 10 million people worldwide are infected, though it is considered relatively rare in the United States and United Kingdom….
One ritual involves striking the forehead with a knife and then passing it along to other men. Another involves striking the back with a chain of blades or other bladed implement.
One man said that when he did it, the blades being passed around were soaked in a bucket containing an over-the-counter antiseptic solution. But that is inadequate to prevent spread of HTLV-1, Dhasmana said.
The practice of whipping or cutting oneself has been practiced among different religious groups, most notably by Shiite Muslims on the holy day Ashoura. Usually only men do it, and it’s controversial even within religious communities.
Dhasmana said: “Our message is not ‘Don’t do it.’ Our message is ‘If you do it, don’t share equipment.’”

Re-Elect Trump again if America has to be saved from becoming another Left/liberal garbage country like EU/UKistan
Sharia Police in Uk are not willing to protect those who speak truth about islam https://tinyurl.com/ya6j3phj
Instead go after those who expose the jihadi crimes and oppose their Left/Liberal supporters !

WOW. A bunch of anti-Constitutional BLOCKERS that took this great video down. That’s OKAY, you will never be able to STOP the truth. IT will always be out there for those of us who are discerning, to find and reveal to those who are not DEAF, DUMB, AND BLIND spiritually.

Seems I’ve read about this ritual in history before. Hmm now where was it? Oh yeah, 1 Kings 18:28.
Seems there really isn’t anything new under the sun…

An apt comparison. That passage references another group of deluded devotees following an equally impotent equivalent of Allah – Baal worshipers, and did they ever get their youknowwhat handed to them that day.

Don’t worry, this can be easily cured by drinking a bottle of camel urine.

Who was it that was quoted as saying, “there is no fun in islam”? So, yeah let’em have their fun, if moslems die from their fun…well at least they are in paradise. Well maybe….

Winston Churchill described the devotees of the muslim cult in I believe The River Wars. You see it often repeated on line because it is perfect. His only failing in his critique might be that the “salvation of the west resting safely in the arms of science” which might still be correct.

Is this disease transmitted any other way besides blood contact? If transmission is limited to their religious activities and only to those who participate, then I think we should not interfere with their religious freedom and practises.

In pakistain, buses were stopped by Sunni terrorists and the men were forced to reveal their backs and if they were scarred by self-flagellation they were gunned down and isn’t that just TFB?

There seems to be no end to the list of vile and/or moronic Islamic practices. Evil coupled with ignorance, and even mental deficiency, is a dangerous combination.

If they were truly devout muslims they would pass around a pistol and each take a shot to the temple. Go get their 57 swinging dicks.

Isn’t this properly called sadomasochism? If they do this in public, I don’t want to imagine what they do privately to themselves?

With this recent massacre of Muslims in Christchurch, NZ, the Muslim community (Ummah) ‘secretly’ rejoices those Muslim martyrs because they have died to further the demographic jihad take over of New Zealand w/o any opposition from the majority population to the evil inherent in Islam against the Western infidels. Violent backlash from the filthy kaffirs was inevitable… but all that accomplishes is for Muslims to reinforce their Victimhood status and jihad. No infidel should commit violence against Muslims in the West…just get politicians to ban Muslims from invading your country like Orban has done in Hungary.
No Muslims = No terror on either side.
Shall we be seeing any “apologists” for the general Western majority non-Muslim population concerning this act of terror against minority Muslim victims within the Muslim community?

And the world is, once again, totally outraged about this ‘abuse’ and ‘murder’ of moslems.
Strange how all the imbeciles and hypocrites can be so vocal about this, but when it comes to two white girls having their heads sawn off in morrocco, on video, by moslem ‘men’, there wasn’t a peep from any of them. Nothing. It wasn’t even deemed worthy of a news report or a newspaper headline.

Exactly! Only Westerners can collectively be called EVIL. The 3rd world anti-WEST barbarians get a “pass.” For example, Ilhan Omar got a pass w/ her inbred Islamic anti-Semitism. A Hijab has “magical” properties…it transforms the Muslim bigot into an automatic “victim.” It even transforms Linda Sarsour into a “person of color,” per her own words (let’s call it trans-racial). Yes, Muslim women are victims in male-dominated Muslim countries or male-dominated Muslim no-go Sharia zones in the West. Otherwise, in the “House of War” which is all the infidel territory…they can act as supremacist activists for Islam (they now finally have POWER). It’s rare to have a Western leader who understands Islam…most are ignorant…or simply afraid of criticizing them for fear of the violent backlash typical of Muslims in response to criticism of their heinous culture and their bigoted violent ideology. Muslims have a chokehold on common sense and freedom of speech in the West. Where ever Muslims migrate en masse, HELL follows.

Everything you said is so true.
Nothing as sick as a moslem, or a collaborationist politician.
It disgusts me that these ‘leaders’ not only allow it, but encourage it.
They should all be executed for crime against humanity.

Why can’t we ban this in the US, you ask? Because of a little thing called the First Amendment, which guarantees the free exercise of religion. If we banned all religious practices that drew blood, wouldn’t we also have to ban the various Catholic sects who also believe in self-flagellation, or in climbing up stone steps on bloody knees to make a pilgrimage to a shrine? Wouldn’t we also have to ban circumcision — both the Jewish and Muslim variety?
Belgium tried to ban Halal slaugher, and the law they drafted wound up banning Kosher slaughter as well — just one more nail in the coffin of religious freedom and tolerance. The Santeria and Voodoo cults in the USA get to practice animal sacrifice, and the Jews and Muslims get to practice ritual slaughter without stunning the animal into unconsciousness first, because of the First Amendment protection, too. Just because something looks alien, primitive, and disgusting to snowflake sensibilities of the right OR the left does not mean it should be banned. I agree with the final words of the quoted article: “Our message is not ‘Don’t do it.’ Our message is ‘If you do it, don’t share equipment.’”
Because — I GUARANTEE you — YOUR religious practices, whatever they are, look alien, primitive, and disgusting to somebody else, somewhere.

Um, the US Constitution isn’t a suicide pact. Please point out to me any Catholics who still practice self flagellation on the order the Shitite vermin do or who ever HAVE done so.

Because of my feelings for the whole slimer cult and in a true spirit of diversity I think the religious holiday should be at least a full month longer. Thus we allow the true believers to really prove their devotion to a pedophile with no harm to humans.
Or a less bloody and much less tiring ritual could have them all hold a loaded rifle, point it straight ahead everyone then stands in a circle shoulder to shoulder, scream “Sally Ackbar” (pboh) and have everyone pull the triggers at the same time.
Repeat as required until everyone is purified..Put video on you tube so all real humans can enjoy them.
