A MUSLIM EUROPE - How Close?? - THE FACTS
In a generation or two, the US will ask itself: "who lost Europe?"
Here is the speech of Geert Wilders, a member of Parliament
from the Netherlands, at the Four Seasons, New York on Sept 28, 2008:
AMERICA as THE LAST MAN STANDING
-by Geert Wilders.
I come to America with a mission. All is not well in the old world.
There is a tremendous danger looming, and it is very difficult to be
optimistic. We might be in the final stages of the Islamization of
Europe. This not only is a clear and present danger to the future of
Europe itself, it is a threat to America and the sheer survival of the
West. The United States as the last bastion of Western civilization,
facing an Islamic Europe.
First I will describe the situation on the ground in Europe. Then, I
will say a few things about Islam. To close I will tell you about a
meeting in Jerusalem.
The Europe you know is changing. You have probably seen the
landmarks. But in all of these cities, sometimes a few blocks
away from your tourist destination, there is another world. It is the
world of the parallel society created by Muslim mass-migration.
All throughout Europe a new reality is rising: entire Muslim
neighborhoods where very few indigenous people reside or are even seen.
And if they are, they might regret it. This goes for the police as well.
It's the world of head scarves, where women walk around in figureless
tents, with baby strollers and a group of children. Their husbands,
or slaveholders if you prefer, walk three steps ahead, with mosques
on many street corners. The shops have signs you and I cannot
read. You will be hard-pressed to find any economic activity.
These are Muslim ghettos controlled by religious fanatics. These
are Muslim neighborhoods, and they are mushrooming in every
city across Europe. These are the building-blocks for territorial
control of increasingly larger portions of Europe, street by street,
neighborhood by neighborhood, city by city.
There are now thousands of mosques throughout Europe. With
larger congregations than there are in churches. And in every
European city there are plans to build super-mosques that will
dwarf every church in the region. Clearly, the signal is: we rule.
Many European cities are already one-quarter Muslim: just take
Amsterdam, Marseille and Malmo in Sweden.
In many cities the majority of the under-18 population is Muslim.
Paris is now surrounded by a ring of Muslim neighborhoods.
Mohammed is the most popular name among boys in many cities.
In some elementary schools in Amsterdam the farm can no longer
be mentioned, because that would also mean mentioning the pig,
and that would be an insult to Muslims. Many state schools in
Belgium and Denmark only serve halal food to all pupils...
The history of the Holocaust can no longer be taught because of
Muslim sensitivity. In England sharia courts are now officially part
of the British legal system..
Many neighborhoods in France are no-go areas for women without
head scarves. Last week a man almost died after being beaten up
by Muslims in Brussels, because he was drinking during the
Ramadan. Jews are fleeing France in record numbers, on the run
for the worst wave of anti-Semitism since World War II. French is
now commonly spoken on the streets of Tel Aviv and Netanya,
Israel. I could go on forever with stories like this. Stories about
Islamization.
A total of fifty-four million Muslims now live in Europe. San Diego
University recently calculated that a staggering 25 percent of the
population in Europe will be Muslim just 12 years from now...
Now these are just numbers. And the numbers would not be
threatening if the Muslim-immigrants had a strong desire to
assimilate. But there are few signs of that. The Pew Research
Center reported that half of French Muslims see their loyalty to
Islam as greater than their loyalty to France. One-third of French
Muslims do not object to suicide attacks. The British Centre for
Social Cohesion reported that one-third of British Muslim students
are in favor of a worldwide caliphate. Muslims demand what they
call 'respect'. And this is how we give them respect. We have
Muslim official state holidays.
The Christian-Democratic attorney general is willing to accept
sharia in the Netherlands if there is a Muslim majority. We have
cabinet members with passports from Morocco and Turkey.
Muslim demands are supported by unlawful behavior, ranging from
petty crimes and random violence, for example against ambulance
workers and bus drivers, to small-scale riots. Paris has seen its
uprising in the low-income suburbs, the banlieus. I call the
perpetrators 'settlers'. Because that is what they are. They do not
come to integrate into our societies, they come to integrate our
society into their Dar-al-Islam. Therefore, they are settlers.
Much of this street violence I mentioned is directed exclusively
against non-Muslims, forcing many native people to leave their
neighborhoods, their cities, their countries. Moreover, Muslims are
now a swing vote not to be ignored.
The second thing you need to know is the importance of Mohammed
the prophet. His behavior is an example to all Muslims and cannot
be criticized. Now, if Mohammed had been a man of peace, let us
say like Ghandi and Mother Theresa wrapped in one, there would
be no problem. But Mohammed was a warlord, a mass murderer,
a pedophile, and had several marriages - at the same time. Islamic
tradition tells us how he fought in battles, how he had his enemies
murdered and even had prisoners of war executed. Mohammed
himself slaughtered the Jewish tribe of Banu Qurayza. If it is good
for Islam, it is good. If it is bad for Islam, it is bad.
Let no one fool you about Islam being a religion. Sure, it has a god,
and a here-after, and 72 virgins, but in its essence Islam is a
political ideology. It is a system that lays down detailed rules for
society and the life of every person. Islam wants to dictate every
aspect of life. Islam means 'submission'. Islam is not compatible
with freedom and democracy, because what it strives for is sharia.
If you want to compare Islam to anything, compare it to communism
or national-socialism, these are all totalitarian ideologies.
Now you know why Winston Churchill called Islam 'the most
retrograde force in the world', and why he compared Mein
Kampf to the Quran. The public has wholeheartedly accepted the
Palestinian narrative, and sees Israel as the aggressor. I have
lived in this country and visited it dozens of times. I support Israel.
First, because it is the Jewish homeland after two thousand years
of exile up to and including Auschwitz, second because it is a
democracy, and third because Israel is our first line of defense.
This tiny country is situated on the fault line of jihad, frustrating
Islam's territorial advance. Israel is facing the front lines of jihad,
like Kashmir, Kosovo, the Philippines, Southern Thailand, Darfur
in Sudan, Lebanon, and Aceh in Indonesia. Israel is simply in the
way. The same way West-Berlin was during the Cold War.
The war against Israel is not a war against Israel. It is a war
against the West. It is jihad. Israel is simply receiving the blows
that are meant for all of us. If there would have been no Israel,
Islamic imperialism would have found other venues to release its
energy and its desire for conquest. Thanks to Israeli parents who
send their children to the army and lay awake at night, parents in
Europe and America can sleep well and dream, unaware of the
dangers looming.
Many in Europe argue in favor of abandoning Israel in order to
address the grievances of our Muslim minorities. But if Israel
were, God forbid, to go down, it would not bring any solace to the
West. It would not mean our Muslim minorities would all of a
sudden change their behavior, and accept our values. On the
contrary, the end of Israel would give enormous encouragement to
the forces of Islam. They would, and rightly so, see the demise of
Israel as proof that the West is weak, and doomed. The end of
Israel would not mean the end of our problems with Islam, but only
the beginning. It would mean the start of the final battle for world
domination. If they can get Israel, they can get everything.
So-called journalists volunteer to label any and all critics of
Islamization as a 'right-wing extremists' or 'racists'. In my country,
the Netherlands, 60 percent of the population now sees the mass
immigration of Muslims as the number one policy mistake since
World War II. And another 60 percent sees Islam as the biggest
threat. Yet there is a danger greater than terrorist attacks, the
scenario of America as the last man standing. The lights may go
out in Europe faster than you can imagine.
An Islamic Europe means a Europe without freedom and democracy,
an economic wasteland, an intellectual nightmare, and a loss of
military might for America - as its allies will turn into enemies,
enemies with atomic bombs....
