Maybe the tide really is turning.
I remember when, in the late '60s and the '70s, hardline socialist and communist groups were still struggling to get their message accepted in Europe and the West generally. They were a tiny minority then, and their agenda seemed very far-fetched and out-of-synch with ordinary people and mainstream views.
It also looked liked it was going to remain that way. When, later on, I heard them screaming "Free Nelson Mandela", I didn't think it was going to happen. And now we know: it has happened, and much more than that has materialised.
Political correctness, which is nothing else but cultural Marxism, has become mainstream, indeed the orthodoxy and the dominant ideology.
As things turned one way in a manner that a few decades ago seemed impossible, thay can wery well turn the other way, even if we find it difficult to believe now.
In Italy, 100,000 people protested against illegal immigration, Islamisation and the European Union earlier this month at a Lega Nord (Northern League) rally in Milan.
In Germany, last Sunday about 4,800 people took to the streets of Cologne. The protest was planned by Hooligans gegen Salafisten (Hooligans against Salafists), abbreviated as HoGeSa, who had previously organised similar demonstrations in several German cities, including Essen, Nuremberg, Mannheim, Frankfurt and Dortmund. Their name derives from the fact that they belong to rival football fan clubs and are now banding together through social media.
More than 5,000 people had registered their attendance to the Cologne march on Facebook, claiming to travel from around Europe. At the event, there were clashes with the police and a thousand of counter-demonstrators. Several policement were injured.
A new demo is programmed in Berlin for 15 November and another in Hamburg, but there is talk that they may be banned. From Reuters:
The hooligans - as they term themselves - want to stage a protest against ultra-conservative Islamic Salafists at Berlin's Brandenburg Gate on Nov. 15, a week after the capital celebrates the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.Another componenet of this continental movement of resistance is Cities against Islamisation . Initiated as far back as January 2008 by Filip Dewinter of the Flemish independence party Vlaams Belang, it is a pan-European alliance that includes Austria, Belgium, Britain, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Spain.
Berlin's senator for interior affairs Frank Henkel told ARD television he had heard talk of 10,000 people wanting to attend.
"We will do everything we can to ban the demonstration," said Henkel. "We are experiencing a new quality, a new dimension of street violence and militancy. (In Cologne) it was clear from the start that it was not about a political statement but seeking physical clashes, especially with the police."...
Salafists advocate a puritanical form of Islam and the BfV [Germany's domestic intelligence agency] says their numbers in Germany are rising, along with the number of potential recruits for Islamic State.
The BfV estimates that 450 people have travelled to the region from Germany to join radical jihadist forces.

ReplyDeleteExcellent short speech demanding that Italy end its suicidal immigration policies.
Of course, the Europeans who are actually live warm bodies and who don't wish to be frozen out by Muslims and the various governments can't count on those governments any more to protect them from Islamization. I just wish they'd woken up sooner. And if the governments there attempt to ban or shut down demonstrations, then the people there should really "take it to the streets" and be prepared to shovel it right back at the cops and the Muslims.
ReplyDeletePlease don't let your hatred for Muslims blind you. I am a Muslim, do you think I want to enforce Islam on everyone? It is you whom don't know anything about Jihad, "Jihad" does NOT mean 'holy war' or anything like that, it means 'struggle', read about it here: en.Wikipedia(DOT)org/wiki/Jihad Also, Sharia law can ONLY be implemented on MUSLIMS, majority of the people in the UK are not Muslims! I don't know much about Islam, but I know it's most definitely NOT what people make it out to be. There's plenty of great verses in the Quran such as "Do you love your creator? Love your fellow humans-beings first." We Muslims have no right to implement Islamic laws on Britain, you're not better than the Zionists whom went to Palestine to claim the land for themselves.
ReplyDeleteI believe that the EDL are just as bad as religious extremists. I've heard some horrific things coming out of the mouths of EDL members, I'm sure there's some good lads in the group, though I refuse to be part of something full of heartless racists. It's also as though Tommy Robinson tries to hold all Muslims responsible for the actions of a individual. I'm sorry, but I only know how to be responsible for my actions..
The elephant in the room that nobody wants to talk about is that the West has been at war with Islam for nearly 2 decades, killing millions of Muslims in the process. That is why their coreligionists are joining egregious groups like IS. Keep killing them by "intervening", and you will just breed millions more jihadists. Seems like west is tasting its own medicine now. non-stop inflow of radicals and liberty for propaganda for any country except western created these monsters. Assad, Gadhafi, Saddam Husain were controlling these idiots too well. You invaded countries on flimsy grounds now reap benefits.

But, is it? Somehow, I doubt that the European Surrender Monkeys can ever rise against anything so Anglo-American as Islam.
ReplyDeleteThere is no compulsion in Islam. Western women have been reverting to Islam according to their own free will.
ReplyDeleteSince the 9/11 tragedy, the Hispanic community in the United States has witnessed a significant rise in conversions to Islam, especially among women, says Imam Shamsi Ali, a Muslim scholar and imam of the 96th street mosque in Manhattan, on the border of the city’s Upper East Side and Harlem. They are “mostly educated, young and professional women.”
Although 9/11 incited bias and discrimination against Muslims, many non-Muslims, who some had never heard about Islam, also started to question the meaning of the religion, explains Ali.
The percentage of new female converts to Islam in the U.S. has increased 9 percent since 2000, from 32 percent to 41 percent, according to the 2011 U.S. Mosque Survey, which interviewed leaders at 524 mosques across the country. Latinos–men and women–accounted for 12 percent of all new converts in the United States in 2011.
In 2006, the number of Hispanic Muslims was estimated at about 200,000 by the American Muslim Council, which has not provided any new figures since then.
Ahmad Akhar, the Ibn Khaldun chair of Islamic studies at American University in Washington, D.C., gave several explanations for this increase in a 2011 story in Illume Mag on the rise of Hispanics converting to Islam in the United States. The most attractive part of Islam to Latinos seeking spirituality, he said, is its strict monotheistic orientation and structured belief system. Much more literature on Islam has been translated into Spanish in the United States, he added, which has made the religion more accessible to non-Arabic readers. By converting to Islam, some Latinos may also feel as if they’re connecting to their Spanish roots, which are embedded for 800 years in Islamic history in Spain’s southeast population canters of Granada, Cordova, Seville and Andalusia.
Over the next two decades the number of Muslims living in the United States will more than double, rising from 2.6 million in 2010 to 6.2 million in 2030, according to a study published by the Pew Research Canter in 2011. The study also found that about 20 percent of the estimated 1.8 million Muslims currently in America, 18 and older, are converts.
Imam Ali says that the strength of Islam for some female converts is linked to gender equality. “Islam came with the idea that all human beings are equal, including male and female,” he said an interview at the Indonesian consulate in Manhattan. “Women have an important role in societies, not only at home.”
He adds that it’s important to differentiate between “what Muslims do in Muslim lands and what Islam is about,” in response to some Westerners’ ideas about traditional Muslim societies where gender roles are well defined and sharply divided.

Such Taqiya.
ReplyDeleteThat last paragraph made me laugh though.
