The Muslim Safety Forum is a British-based organization set up to challenge the "unfair focus on the Muslim community when it came to policing activities and enforcement of anti-terror policing legislation". It was founded in 2006 with Azad Ali as its chairman. In December 2006, Ali signed an agreement with Sir Ian Blair, then Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, which stated: "The Commissioner will recognise the MSF as the principal body in relation to Muslim community safety and security."〔 By this agreement, Sir Ian or his deputy were to meet Ali and the MSF at least twice a year and to hold monthly meetings with the MSF at "New Scotland Yard or other suitable premises".〔 Met chiefs, including counter-terrorist commanders, were to attend the MSF's own meetings "whenever possible”.〔 The Met were to "use the MSF as a consultation body to help formulate policy or practice" and "progress an annual plan of work through agreed priority workstreams," jointly led by Met and MSF representatives. These workstreams included counter-terrorism and "Islamophobia." Mr Ali was the MSF lead on counter-terrorism.〔 In the wake of the controversy about the abortive Forest Gate raid in summer 2006, the Met also agreed to set up a four-man panel with the MSF, with Ali as one of the panel, to offer the Muslim community to scrutinise police intelligence.〔 Ali left the post of chairman in 2008, then, having been appointed the MSF treasurer, 〔 resigned entirely from MSF in 2009 after publicity over his extremist comments. However he remained a trustee and director of the MSF. 〔 In July 2010 he was reinstated as MSF’s chairman. 〔 The MSF has been described in ''The Jewish Chronicle'' as "an extremist group dominated by Islamists who support Hamas". ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Muslim Safety Forum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
