Isiah Young-Sam a 23 year old, IT analyst at Birmingham City Council, died from a single stab wound to the chest. One of his friends was also stabbed in the back. He was a mere yards from his home when he was set upon in an unprovoked attack and murdered because he was an African. Media reports state that the Police said the ethnicity of the attackers and their motive were "unclear".

Ligali is getting several reports of similar groups of Asian men slowly driving by African women walking the streets alone or with their children and attempting to intimidate them with threats of violence, a well known Birmingham African Caribbean community centre was also besieged with threats to harm the elders resident inside whilst in London there are unsubstantiated reports of the deliberate damaging of property in the Walthamstow area in streets where African people predominantly live.

The vehemously anti African newspaper the Times is typical of how opportunist media organisations are attempting to inflame tensions. It reports of how “A black music website called Supatrax… reads: Word outta street is that members from Johnson Crew and Burger Bar have met to call a truce to recent gang warfare and unite against any attacks from the Pakistani community… For too long black people have had to stand by . . . this is a time to unite and stand strong not only for the justice of the young girl but also for the black community as a whole.”

Yesterday the paper attempted to besmirch the highly respected Blacknet Village forums and others published articles designed to introduce religion into the conflict. The majority of media stories portray the African British community as the aggressor despite the fact that both Birmingham and London launches of the Campaign for silent victims occurred peacefully.

Asian websites such as BarfiCulture.com have made incendiary comments such as “she probably consented to giving him head – but he took it out of character and f**ked her silly” whilst other comments were so offensive we refuse to publish them. Posters are saying “the black community need to apologise to the asian community for the uncalled for violence by their youth who attack innocent asians over the weekend. And black community must pay compensation to all the damage down in the riots”.

However there is a new element that has been introduced to this situation that all media organisations are ignoring. That is the manipulative agenda of elements within the wider community who are attempting to stoke the fans of hatred. In a thread on the Asian website RateDesi.com a topic entitled “Big Up The Pakis Dat Raped The [n word] Bitch In Brumland” has a comment posted by a poster named HYPA_ACTIV which reads;

THESE MOTHAFUCKING [n word] NEED TO BE TAUGHT A LESSON ESPECIALLY DA [n word] BITCHES WITH ALL DAT ATTITUDE THINKIN DAT THEY R MISS MOTHAFUCKIN WORLD, BUT LOOK LIKE MONKEYS, [n word] NEED TO BE GIVEN A TASTE OF THEIR OWN SHIT, HOW MANY [n word] RAPE OTHA WOMEN AN SHIT FUKIN SCUMBAGZ, PUNK ASS MONKEYS.

This new character to the forums that is now banned was most likely to be a European attempting to deliberately inflame tensions between African and Asian communities. However it was sad to see regular Asian posters who have responded with blatant anti African remarks such as “u kno what, u got black folk in deadly tribes killin an rapin the sh** outa women in africa an so on, spreadin aids everywhere... why the f*ck dnt the black folk go protest where protest and rage hell where its needed?!” or poster 'teddy bear' who in another related thread writes

“we had the upper hand on em ever since the abolishment of slavery... back in Africa got Black servents... they just an ignorant nation... nowonder every1 got 1 over em… there aint n uzi flying about n that just some mouthy blacks give them a week n they start shooting each other again” a particular disrespectful comment states “now we gone have Fat Jamaican women crying on the TV sayin her Angel son Winston was a good son ... and he didnt deserve to die ..”

Whilst 'VIP' members write “now why would u even rape a (n word)ette ..thats gross.. n how could u stick ur dick in something who has been f*cked 17-18times before u .. ..”

There is a plethora of far more offensive anti African comments littered all over the site and sadly we believe these type of views are widespread.
