MUSLIM RIOTS IN EUROPE: WE MUST PREPARE FOR CIVIL WAR.

A.) FRANCE.

As most people who get their news from blogs know by now, Paris saw a severe flare-up of the so-called French Intifada again the previous week. The incident that sparked the street violence was the accidental death on Sunday November 25 of two teenagers, Mouhsin and Lakhamy, who had no ancestors in Norway nor in Lithuania, Denmark or Wales. While driving without the compulsory crash helmets on a stolen motorcycle in the Parisian suburb of Villiers-le-Bel, they crashed at breakneck speed into a police vehicle. Their death signalled the start of extremely violent riots in which an enraged and hysterical mob already the same night destroyed two police precincts and a petrol station, torched a few dozen cars, looted stores and wounded a mimimum of 25 police officers, two of them seriously.

The second night, muslim youths not only attacked police officers and firemen in Villiers-le-Bel, but also in nearby Sarcelles and Garges-les-Gonesses. In this night's riots 82 officers got wounded, 10 of them by buckshot and pellet. According to Patrice Ribeiro of the Police Union "Synergie" the rioters included "genuine urban guerrillas". Gilles Wiart, deputy chief of the SGP-FO Police Union reported that one rioter "was firing off two shots, reloading in a stairwell, coming back out -- boom, boom -- and firing again". Even a makeshift bazooka which shot clusters of nails was used. In addition, 63 cars, two schools, a bank, a public library, and a supermarket were torched. To set the buildings ablaze, the "youths" crashed burning cars into them. The third night the mourners, still coping with their grievous loss, burned a nursery school, a car dealership and a library in vain hopes of getting over the tragedy. Distant relatives in the southern French city of Toulouse lent moral support by torching twenty cars in that locality. Omar Sehhouli, the brother of Mouhssin Sehhouli who was killed in the initial accident, was quoted as saying to a reporter from the French press agency AFP that "the eruption of violence is not what it seems. This is not violence, but just anger that needs to be expressed”.

What is obvious is that apart from the pillaging, the number of head-on attacks against the police forces takes a steep rise. Whereby over the past years mostly "only" rocks, iron bars and molotov cocktails were thrown against the gendarmerie, this time a significan number of hunting rifles and air rifles were used. No Pasaran! writes:

According to the latest available figures, some 130 police officers were injured in the rioting, with several of them being seriously wounded by gunfire (Le Figaro, Nov. 30). One police officer lost an eye; another was struck in the shoulder by a 12 mm cartridge fired from a shotgun; a third is reported to have been hit 30 times by pellets, eleven times in the face. Police have also reported being fired upon with an "improvised bazooka" (Le Figaro, Nov. 29). It is clear from the reports that still more serious injuries or even deaths were only avoided thanks to the heavy body armor that French police habitually wear in riot situations. "The use of firearms has been systematic," Patrice Ribeiro of the French police officers union Synergies Officiers told Le Figaro, "There was an intent to kill."

And from The Times Online:

“It felt like they were out to kill us,” said one of the officers in Villiers-le-Bel last week. “We knew that there were weapons in the suburbs, but they have never been turned against us like that. The kids were shooting at us at close range, loading and reloading their weapons. I’ve never seen anything like it.”

B.) THE NETHERLANDS.

The violence in Paris comes almost on the heels of the riots in Amsterdam, which started on Sunday, October 14. As readers may recall, on that day a Moroccan youth by the name of Bilal Bajaka walked into a police station in the Slotervaart neighborhood in West Amsterdam, and randomly started stabbing the officers present. One got a knife in the throat and shoulders as well as slashes in the face, another one, a woman officer, was stabbed in the chest and the back. Yet it was her who was still able to pull her weapon and shoot the scumbag dead. Bilal Bajaka was the brother of Abdullah Bajaka, who was arrested in 2005 for planning to blow up an El Al Boeing at Schiphol International Airport. He was also acquainted with Mohammed Bouyeri, Theo Van Gogh's murderer.

Bajaka's death set off a ten-day spree of carbeques, attacks on police stations, damage to public infrastructure, shop looting and generally terrorizing the neighborhood. In sharp contrast to French Police, Dutch Police during most of the riots stood by and did nothing. It's not that they didn't want to, but they were ordered not to intervene by Amsterdam's mayor, the socialist Job Cohen, in a vain attempt to "calm things down". Of course, neither can the leadership of Amsterdam's Top Cop, Bernard Welten, hardly be called inspiring: on Dutch TV he officially announced the so-called De-escalation policy in order to avoid "...a Parisian scenario. We need to keep the peace at all cost." And so Dutch police limited itself to some occasional arrests (only to release the perpetrators hours later) and escorting the fire crews, who were also assaulted by the Moroccan mob. After ten days the riots did indeed petered down, but only a fool would believe that Amsterdams problems with its muslim comunity are over. Rather, they are just beginning.


C.) BELGIUM.

At roughly the same time, two events happening thousands of miles away from each other stirred up tensions in the Turkish community in Sint-Joost-Ten Node, a Brussels neighborhood. First a Commission of the US Congress endorsed a resolution condemning Turkey's murder on an estimated 1.5 million Armenians during WWI as a genocide. Then, skirmishes along the Turkish-Iraqi border resulted in the deaths of tens of Turkish troops at the hands of PKK rebels.

Apparently both developments were too much for hundreds of Turkish hotheads, who on Sunday October 21 took to the streets of Sint-Joost-ten-Node, leaving a trail of destruction behind them. Cars were torched, public infrastructure destroyed, shops looted. Upon passing a cafe called "Le Jardin de Babylone", the mob discovered it was run by an Armenian, a certain Mr. Peter Petrossian. Concrete blocks were smashed through the windows, the guests chased away and the interior destroyed. Mr. Petrossian, who had to flee for his life, recalls that the thugs shouted: "It's an Armenian! Kill him! Bust his cafe!" Police was attacked too, to the extent that even a twit like Sint-Joost-ten-Nodes mayor, Jean Demannez, felt compelled to call for reinforcements, justifying this by saying "We have to stop the thugs. The Turks cannot hijack the rest of the population.". If a Parti Socialiste mayor says that, things must be very hot indeed. He got 80 more police officers, but these too were unable to quell the unrest. For several days cars were burnt, public transportation services attacked, with passengers thrown off the buses and utilities busted, and shop windows smashed. Even the nearby US Embassy was targeted, but - when it's good, we say it also - a large police presence there prevented any damage (although the US flag on the pole outside was stolen). Finally, even more reinforcements and widespread use of watercannon turned the tide.

The Brussels 2007 muslim riots conjure up memories of the 2006 riots, although these were mostly, if not exclusively, the work of Moroccan thughs. On September 24, 2006, a 25-year old inmate of Vorst prison, Fayçal Chaaban, acted so violently against the prison guards that they sedated him. When upon awakening he continued to beat and shout, a second dose was administered. Apparently this was an overdose, since he never woke up again. When news of his death seeped out the day after, this was the signal for a Moroccan mob to start violent riots in the Marollen neighborhood in central Brussels. Several cars and a shop were torched, windows smashed, and a trail of devastation was left in their wake. This went on for several days. Buses and trams full of commuters were pelted with stones, bus stops were shattered, and a youth center at the Place de la Querelle was burned. The firemen trying to extinguish the flames were attacked. Perhaps the most repulsive act was when the scumbags threw two molotov cocktails into the Saint Peter Hospital, luckily without too much damage...


When we examine these events, we can conclude two things.

The first is that islamic youths unmistakably use a totally skewed logic. Two young petty criminals foolishly kill themselves (France). A twentysomething with a decadelong past of robbery tries to kill cops doing civil work at their desk. Thousands of miles away, a conflict is fought between a rebel group and the Turkish Army. A young criminal dies of an accident. And yet... in all these instances, the islamic mob aims its retaliation at the very society they live in. Shops and innocent bystanders are attacked. Cars used by anonymous working class heroes torched. Public services they themselves use, are rendered unusable. Behaviour like this is anathema to westerners, who usually - provided they are not leftists - upon hearing of the shooting death of a dangerous white criminal, will actually welcome the news, often using some swell endorsement like "Good riddance". Not so our Moroccan, Turkish and/or Algerian co-citizens. And no, I'm not narrowing down my spectre to the guys who actually took to the streets. These 10 to 25-year old hotheads have mothers and fathers. Were I to know that my son took part in some violent riot one day, I'd make sure he'd long passionately to sit on the school banks the next morning - despite a raw butt. It is obvious that the perpetrators' parents don't give a flying sh*t - pardon my French - about the whereabouts of their offspring if the latter are curiously absent from the house and the telly shows carbeques round the clock.

The second thing is that, no matter how illogical the behaviour of the muslim crowds is, we are and remain faced with it. It is not going to change, to the contrary. The muslim riots, getting worse with every passing year, are a signal that our legal and judicial systems are put to the test. If anything is clear from what happened at Villiers-le-Bel, Slotervaart or Sint-Joost-ten-Node, it's that these riots are meant to indicate that territory is being claimed. Few things illustrate this more clearly than the sea of blood red Turkish flags and the ubiquitous posters of Kemal Ataturk in the latter community. And these flags and posters illustrate too the utter failure of the multicultural pipedream.

French judge and blogger Jean de Maillard (who is a Vice-president of the Superior Court of Orléans, and a professor at the Institute of Political Science in Paris), writes "Dans les banlieues, le pire reste à venir". (In the suburbs, the worst has yet to come). The Brussels Journal uses a rather "liberal" interpretation of de Maillard's post when the title of its referring post is: "A judge warns: France should prepare for civil war." But even if the good judge stopped short of writing to prepare for guerre civile, for me it's abundantly clear that the current trend can lead only to this outcome. It's that, or living in slavery in a future impoverished Eurabia where stupid muslim masses ask themselves in 2050 where the social security manna came from back in 2005. Where they may even then not realize that the exact mechanics which killed the economy in their countries: a deady marriage between islam and socialism - and which they imported here - killed Europes economy too.

What will it take for the leftist loons to wake up?

Do we really have to wait for the first dead cop?




MFBB.

DEBUNKING CHARLES JOHNSON STILL EASY AS PIE.

Charles Johnson got mail from his Belgian buddies again. This time he was provided with photos showing current VB European Parliament member Koen Dillen, son of the late Vlaams Blok founder Karel Dillen, in the company of Léon Degrelle. The photo dates from July 11, 1992. Johnson must have gotten it via the extreme leftist hatesite Blokwatch.



And on this photo you see the same Léon Degrelle, be it somewhat younger, shaking hands with a well-known socialist, deceased in April 1945:



Who was Léon Degrelle? He was the prewar founder of the Rex Party, Belgium's Wallonian fascist movement in the thirties. Like in other industrialized countries, the economic crisis had struck hard, and the traditional parties seemed unable to turn the tide. In 1936, the charismatic and populistic orator Degrelle scored high with Rex, conquering 10% of the vote. This was to be the movement's peak moment, however. News of Rex's contacts with the NSDAP and Mussolini's fascists, together with a better performing economy, had shrunk it to a marginal party by the time war reached Belgium in 1940. Initially, the Nazis ignored Degrelle and Rex, deeming the "latin" Walloons inferior to the "germanic" Flemings. That changed after Nazi Germany attacked Russia on July 22, 1941. Degrelle offered a Walloon Legion to help fight communism on the Eastern Front and the Nazis, eager for manpower, accepted. The Walloon Legion, under the - brave, it must be admitted - personal leadership of Degrelle, fought with distinction and Degrelle made quite a name of himself, so much that at one point Hitler said "that he was the only Belgian useful to him". By 1943, a bitter rivalry for manpower and resources had developed between the Wehrmacht and the Waffen SS. The power-hungry Degrelle, seeing that promotion in the latter organisation tended to be much faster than in the Army, had already managed to get his Walloon Legion transferred to the Waffen SS, where it had been named "SS Sturmbrigade Wallonien", see the propaganda poster. The charging knight evokes the glorious "Walloon" past with its powerful medieval counties, a.o. the County of Hainaut, and the Prince-Bishopric of Liège (the name "Wallonia" does in fact not emerge until the 19th century). In the winter of 1943-1944, Degrelle's unit was encircled, together with various other Waffen SS and Wehrmacht units, in the notorious Korsun Pocket near Cherkassy, Ukraine. SS Sturmbrigade Wallonien managed to extricate itself from the pocket, but was very badly mauled. For his bravery, Degrelle was personally awarded the Ritterkreuz by a grateful Fuehrer, and at this occasion Hitler reportedly said "that if he had had a son, he had wished him to be like him [Degrelle]." During 1944 the brigade was brought up to strength again and by fall even upgraded to a Waffen SS division, the 28th Waffen Grenadier "Wallonien", still under Degrelles leadership. It withered away in the spring of 1945 under the Soviet onslaught, and disintegrated completely in late April alongside - the irony! - the Flemish Waffen SS division, the 27th Waffen Grenadier "Langemarck". An opportunistic Degrelle evaded the fate that awaited many Rexists and Eastern Front veterans in Belgium - execution - by fleeing to Spain where he made a lot of money as an entrepreneur building barracks for the Spanish Army. Over the years, he became something of a celebrity among the other Third Reich fugitives there. An unrepentant hardcore Nazi to the end, who kept calling Adolf Hitler "the greatest statesman he had ever known", Degrelle died in Malaga in 1994.

To say that our friend Koen Dillen thus found himself in pretty seedy company is therefore the Mother of all Understatements. It is ironic that two Belgians, "antagonistic by nature": the one a Fleming, the other a Walloon, only found mutual understanding in their admiration for the epic combats fought by the grenadiers of the "Langemarck" and "Wallonien" divisions. All the more so since the photo session took place on... July 11, the Flemish "National" holiday, birthday of the Battle of the Golden Spurs in 1302, in which an army of Flemish volunteers virtually destroyed a French Knight's Army.

I have known about this notorious visit for a long time, and this is just one of the examples I have often referred to when I mentioned the VB's "murky past". Yes, Dillen's meeting took place fifteen years ago. And yes, it should be noted that unlike most if not all purely German Waffen SS divisions, the "Belgian" ones have no record of savagery or criminal conduct on the Eastern Front. I suppose this has a lot, if not all, to do with the fact that the Flemings and Walloons were drafted into the Waffen SS without the inhuman ideological indoctrination the German Waffen SS men received. In the case of the Flemings, Himmler simply "picked" the Flemish Legion away from the Army and the men found themselves wearing, from one day to another so to say, SS-runes. It is said that a lot of them kept wearing their necklace crosses behind those dreaded runes. Belgium was a deeply catholic country in those days - and quite a few priests exhorted glory-hungry youngsters to go fight the godless bolsheviks (the most notorious among these being a certain Cyriel Verschaeve). In the case of the Walloons, Degrelle, more a Nazi at heart than his Flemish counterparts, was even more eager to get the transition done than Himmler himself - but the effect for his men was the same. Either way, both groups fought and died bravely, and seem to have behaved "humanely" vis-à-vis the Russian population, insofar that was possible of course. But... there is no excuse here.

There is no excuse here, not then and not fifteen years later. One cannot simply reduce this to the judgment errors a young man often makes. All the more so, since I have never known Koen Dillen to excuse himself. These are the things the Vlaams Belang, successor to the Vlaams Blok, has to live with, just as Sverigedemokraterna has to live with its history of Nazi adoration and Italy's Gianfranco Fini with his neofascist MSI days.

The very serious problem I have with Charles Johnson's logic - apart from his most unnerving Holier-Than-Thou attitude - is that in his static worldview people and parties cannot change and that the efforts of hundreds of thousands cannot atone for the long past missteps of some. Some compromising photo from the old days is dug up somewhere and a whole people's movement is branded a bunch of Neonazis. If we are to apply Mr. Johnson's logic to the Democratic Party e.g., then no decent individual should ever cast his vote again for it because it has a 200-year history of racism, from promoting slavery before and during the Civil War, over Jim Crow laws, Black Codes, outright support for the Ku Klux Klan and voting against the 1957 and 1964 Civil Rights Laws, to Senator Christopher Dodd praising former KKK member Robert Byrd and saying he would have been a good Confederate General. How about that??? I however, as a Rightwinger (and a Neonazi according to Mr. Johnson), am convinced the Democratic Party IS NECESSARY in American politics. Though in all honesty, I wish less clowns would take shelter there.

The second problem I have with Mr. Johnson, is that he displays a willful ignorance of the historic background of the Flemish struggle. As stated before, for a long time and even till today, Flemings have been second-rank citizens in Belgium. During the entire nineteenth century, and the bigger part of the twentieth century, all power echelons in the Belgian state were reserved for the French-speaking Walloons, since Flemish, which relates to Dutch the way American English relates to "British" English, was considered a vulgar peasants language. In the nineteenth century, schoolchildren could be punished for speaking their mother tongue on the schoolyard. During World War I, many Flemish soldiers died because they could not comprehend their orders given to them in French by their Walloon NCO's and officers. For them, it was "Pour les Flamands la meme chose!!!" (For the Flemings, the same!!!). Ghent, one of Flanders's most famous cities, only got its first Flemish university during World War I through the efforts of... the German occupier. It took a century since the Independence in 1830 before a Belgian monarch, Albert I, addressed Parliament in Flemish. And the famous university at Leuven, a city only known in Anglosaxon countries as "Louvain", after the French way to write it, was not entirely Flemish until 1968... It is with this in mind that one has to look at, say, the - very disturbing, admitted - show of leading Vlaams Blok politicians laying flowers on the graves of Flemish Waffen SS soldiers. For besides their role on the Eastern Front, in the service of one of humanity's most evil regimes, these men had often made a name for themselves in another struggle, the Flemish struggle. YES, they chose the wrong side, and a DEAD WRONG side at that, in vain hoping that the Germans would reward their efforts and sacrifices against the USSR with at least a limited degree of self-rule. Naturally, the Nazis simply abused them. STILL, if anno 2007 we have come a very long way from the days when Flemings were looked down upon by La Belgique's Walloon establishment as an uncivilized, vulgar people speaking an atrocious, incomprehensible dialect, this is in part ALSO thanks to these men. No matter how inhuman the regime was they served. Before judging a controversial video ripped out of its context in his usual knee-jerk fashion, Charles Johnson the Anti-Racist would do better to get himself acquainted with some essential history.

The third grave problem I have with LGF's Chief Editor, is that he swallows the data being fed to him by extreme leftwing sites without criticism, while bullying away any person on or outside his blog who offers a different viewpoint or even a more nuanced approach. A lot of "material" seems to come directly or indirectly from the extreme leftwing hatesite Blokwatch or from the obscure communist Yelloman. For example, after Yelloman posted a French documentary on the "hidden face of the VB" on October 31, a link to that same video appeared on LGF on November 10. Sure, Johnson said he "got it from a Spanish reader", but after seeing his minions referring and linking ad nauseam to the same commie hateholes, I'd wager he'd have, by now, serious reason for listening to another bell. The opposite is true, however. Longtime commenters on LGF suddenly find themselves shut out, and very reasonable counterarguments by TBJ's Paul Belien are downright ignored.

Let us now have a close look at these sources. As said before, they seem to be the obscure Belgian extreme leftwing blogger Yelloman as well as the extreme leftwing Blokwatch, a group of multiculti commie loons if ever there was one. One of its leading figures, a certain Patrick Coeman, kept sticking to his alien multicultural beliefs even as his 16-year old pregnant daughter Jasmijn was violently assaulted and kicked in the belly by a bunch of Moroccan teenagers, who called her a whore and a slut. Blokwatch is affiliated with such gems as Verzet.org, another extreme leftwing site which recently sported a scathing attack on Brig. Gen. Paul Tibbets, the man who bombed Hiroshima and thus ended World War II. Another close ally of Blokwatch is the site Mensenrechten (Human Rights), an outfit curiously not interested in Human Rights violations if they happen to be at the hands of their ideological confrères.Their homepage proudly displays an ad for the upcoming movie My enemy's enemy, on Nazi henchman Klaus Barbie. As you can see from the poster, this notorious killer is linked in a not so subtle way to a certain country somewhere in the north of the American continent. A look at Mensenrechten's Board of Directors will in all likelihood not tell you very much, but no. 2 on that board is Eddy Boutmans, from the Green Party, who was a minister in the previous government. One of his aides was a certain Peter Terryn, nicknamed on Boutmans' cabinet the "Minister of Agitation" for his anarchist sympathies. On his website Terryn had called the 9/11 attacks "aesthetically beautiful". Sure, Boutmans fired Terryn... after one week of intense pressure from more sane-minded colleagues. Afterwards, Boutmans' spokeswoman deplored "that a heavy gun had been used to shoot on a trivial bug", and described Terryn's comment as "satire".


If you'd have though this was the high point of Belgian foolishness in the early days of the WOT, you'd be mistaken. In 1993, Belgium passed a so-called "Universal Jurisdiction Law", which allowed foreigners to file complaints against individuals accused of war crimes and genocide, no matter where they resided on the globe. Ten years later, the Liberation of Iraq stirred a number of Belgium's colourful association of leftwing bozos to emphatically support the complaint laid down by some Iraqis against former US President George Walker Bush and former US Army Chief of Staff General Colin Powell, for their alleged role in the bombing of a Baghdad bunker in 1991, whereby as many as 400 civilians would have been killed (curiously, the loons seem not to have discovered the excellent possibility the law gave them to prosecute a certain Middle Eastern dictator who gassed Kurdistan). The monstrosity was repealed in August 2003 when Rummy, who was also in the targets, threatened to move NATO HQ out of Belgium, a decision Blokwatch, Verzet, PvdA, the socialist party, Mensenrechten et al would actually have cheered. The crux of the matter is that Charles Johnson, who I believe referred to this stupid law back in 2003, should know that his trusted sources were all fiercely supporting the "lawsuits" against Bush 41, Powell, Cheney, Sharon and Rummy. Shall we then say, in the man's own words: "Nice company Johnson runs with"?


The proverbial elephant in the Hall of Political Correctness is that while all leftists cry murder whenever some compromising photo taken twenty years ago comes out, they, on the other hand, still demonstrate a kingly nonchalance in the practice of revering "their" heroes. In Spring 2006, Animo, the youth chapter of the Flemish Socialist Party SP.a, sported a poster of Mao on their website, announcing the good - cough - news that the winner of the May 1 Personality of 2006 Contest would be carried around on Labor Day "in true Maoist fashion". FYI, most historians now agree that during Mao's rule between 60 and 70 million Chinese died of non-natural causes, be it execution, mass stravation or other niceties. It's even worse. Leftists somehow take it for granted that they will keep enjoying absolute moral immunity in the presence of leftist dictators. A good example is Cuba. Almost fifty years have gone by since Castro removed the "rightwing" dictator Fulgencio Batista from power there. And after all those years, during which Portugal's Salazar, Taiwan's Chiang-Kai-Chek, Spain's Franco, South Korea's Chun-doo-Hwan , Guatemala's Mejía or Chili's Pinochet - ALL of them rightwing dictators - bloodlessly gave way to democratic rule... the Cubans STILL find themselves living under leftist tyranny. Let that be no problem for our moral betters at home: leftwing politicians still revere the old monster, and while there visibly enjoy being in a country where society and even Man itself is still makeable. The photo, taken a few years back, shows you former Foreign Minister Erik De Rijcke, now Minister of State, enjoying the company of El Lider. De Rijcke is a prominent member of the Flemish socialist party SP.a. Leftists fret about Guantanamo, where at most 500 islamoterrorists simultaneously were held. The gruesome truth is that the real jail begins OUTSIDE Guantanamo's gates, and at any given moment over the past fifty years it has contained over ten million people. The Cuba/Gitmo paradox is not an elephant in a room going mysteriously unremarked, it is one of those 20 mile diameter disks from Independence Day wiping away Greater Roswell including Vegas and the Air Force still pretending it was just a weather balloon.

Either way, the sad thing about the whole LGF/TBJ blogwar is that a precious front in the defense of Europe against the mortal threat posed by Islamization is critically weakened because Mr. Johnson seems not to be able to see anything but Nazis in what has, over the years, become a decent rightwing party - possibly the most GOP-like party on the European Continent. As I have stated before, I would never have joined the VB back in the streetfighting days - even though then already, I recognized, and acknowledged, the sheer necessity of their message. And this despite the at times unfresh odor emanating from the package. But today, the Vlaams Belang has moved on. It is "clean". Not as clean as can be, perhaps, but which party is? Perhaps the best rebuke of Johnsons long diatribe against a movement he should actually praise, is the VB's programme. I have copied and translated some key points. Here they are, and judge for yourself:


IDENTITY AND DEMOCRACY.The Vlaams Belang is a "nationalist party of the right" (In the continental-European semantic context, as opposed to the collectivist, etatist "left". In an Anglosaxon context the term "conservative" would be used, as opposed to "liberal"). Indeed, we recognise man as a free agent, with all his human qualities and flaws, and we reject ideologies that presuppose the "makeability" of mankind and that advocate social engineering. Tradition, virtues and morality, as these have grown through time, must be respected and are constitutive elements of the society of the future. The Vlaams Belang chooses unequivocally for democracy as political model. The people decide.


FREEDOM.Human beings are free persons. The Vlaams Belang is dedicated to protecting the individual from abuse of power by the state. The party defends the freedom of speech, as the first and most important principle in the democratic organisation of society. Other principles include - among others - the right of free assemblage and association, freedom of education, freedom of conscience and the right to life. The right of ownership and free enterprise - which constitute the foundation for economic development, employment and prosperity - are inherent freedoms of our society. In its political activities the Vlaams Belang will respect, as a minimum, the rights and freedoms guaranteed by the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms of 4 November 1950 and the related protocols which apply in Belgium. The party will ensure that itself, its various components and elected delegates also observe the right to self-determination of nations.


LAW AND ORDER.The authorities must respect the rights of every citizen and guarantee law and order. The Vlaams Belang believes that democracy and the rule of law are the best safeguards for personal freedom. Security, and the curtailment of crime, are essential to society. The authorities of a state must guarantee security for all its citizens. The criminal's personal responsibility must be recognized and appreciated as a cause of insecurity. For the Vlaams Belang a tough line on crime and zero tolerance are central to government, and the judiciary and the prison system must cooperate in this.


ECONOMY.To sustain the present level of prosperity our party is in the first place convinced that Flanders has to become an independent state [note: although a VB member myself, I do not subscribe to this view]. Furthermore, Vlaams Belang pleads for supply side economics. This means a policy steered "from beneath" and which gives ample room to individuals and companies to deploy... Free entrepreneurship is of course of the utmost importance. Freedom gives the determined individual the chance to choose a professional activity which best suits one's own talents and preference. By individually choosing education, labor, a sector and specific professional initiatives well suiting one's person, a maximum of added value for the whole of society and thus economic prowess, is generated. The role of the government is first and foremost creating a climate leaving entrepreneurs sufficient room to act in a creative and innovative way. A favourable entrepreneurial climate is only possible when taxes on wages are lowered, administrative overload disappears and the necessary incentives are available. Free competition must be assured as much as possible. A sober government limits entrepreneurs as little as possible. Decision making has to be relocated - following the subsidiarity principle - as much as possible to the lower levels. This implies a drastic reduction of government interference. Only a lean government shall be able to effectively lower and simplify taxes.


THE FAMILY AND MARRIAGE.The Vlaams Belang is an outspoken Family Party. As the Cornerstone of Society, the Family provides stability, comfort and education of children. Families form the solidarity between the generations, between the past and the future. Families are best suited to pass on norms and values. They throw up a dam against egoism and materialism, aginst indifference and the mounting violence on our society. A family-friendly climate is the best condition and guarantee for a healthy society... Marriage forms the strongest basis for families. That is why for the Vlaams Belang, marriage is a basic structure of our society.


ABORTION.The Vlaams Belang has always denounced abortion, for the following reasons: a.) Unborn Life in the mother's womb is also Human Life. b.) Innocent Human Life cannot be killed. c.) Other solutions are possible. That does not mean that we close our eyes for the painful situation of girls who unexpectedly become pregnant...
In the case of rape or in situations whereby the life of the mother herself is in danger, abortion has never been prosecuted, let alone condemned, which means that the current legislation need not be amended... In the meantime, abortion has become an ordinary operation. No serious monitoring of the phenomenon exists. For the VB human life cannot be touched. The State has as its first priority to protect the weakest in society. And the weakest is without doubt the unborn child. In order to have this protection signed into law, the VB has introduced a bill granting legal personality to the unborn child.


EUTHANASIA.The Vlaams Belang is principally against every change of the law which would render euthanasia no longer a punishable crime. Naturally, our resistance against euthanasia does not mean that the Vlaams Belang advocates therapeutical stubbornness or needlessly prolonging life and suffering. Stopping a useless medical treatment with terminal patients and administering painkillers which shorten the dying process are allowed, medical experiments are not allowed.


IMMIGRATION.Flanders is no immigration country and should not have a policy attracting immigrants. He who arrives here as an immigrant and wants to settle permanently, adapts to our language, culture and habits and is in the first place loyal towards his new country, Flanders. The solution is not, as the multicultural dogma proscribes, that numerous cultures must live next to each other. The solution is of course, that the newcomers have to adapt to our culture, not the other way round. This whole theme cannot be seen detached from Flemish history. The Flemings have very nasty experiences with people speaking other languages who did not want to adapt to our language and culture. Our capital is a painful reminder of a Flemish culture usurped by French culture, and currently by other cultures. We want to avoid a recurrence of that phenomenon in other Flemish cities. Francophones who do not want to adapt to the Dutch language in the public sector, educational system and judiciary are not welcome in Flanders. In the same manner, those who adhere to another culture must adapt to us or get back to their country of origin, where they are free to live as they want.


HOMOSEXUALITY. The VB believes that the sexual nature of individuals belongs to the private realm and what consenting adults, be it homosexuals, lesbians or heterosexuals do in the private sphere of their house or sleeping room is not our business. The VB most definitely does not plead for discrimination of gay people. But that does not mean yet that we are cheering the sexually-tinted orgies of gay parades. For the VB the marriage between a man and a woman is and remains the norm. Can it? Gay marriage and gay adoption are, as far as we are concerned, foolish and dangerous nonsense, a bridge too far. This principled rejection has nothing to do with disrimination, but everything with our concern for a healthy society and a healthy education. In the ideal situation children are raised by their biological mother and father. When that is not possible they are best brought up in an environment as stable as possible. But in no way children may become the subject of experiments with gay marriage. We would like to conclude that the VB has a fair number of otherwise oriented members, apart from several homosexual and lesbian politicians. They feel good at home within our party but don't want to make a show of it. And especially, they were not elected because of their orientation, but because of their viewpoints, engagement and other qualities.


RACISM.According to a dictionary, racism is the belief that one race is superior to another. The notion that one race would be superior to another race is just as stupid and short-sighted as the dogmatic and utopian conviction that all people would be equal. People are not equal, but in our view of equal value... The Vlaams Belang is not, as is being claimed so often, against immigrants, but we do oppose the foolish immigrant policy the authorities have applied for decades. A woolly policy standing in the way of any real integration and which has only resulted in the creation of ghettos, school troubles, unemployment, high societal tensions and a disturbing level of criminality. Self-declared "democrats" have always shoo-shooed these problems away, but taboos have never led to a solution for them. The fact that the VB opposes the multicultural society has nothing to do with racism, even though it is often portrayed as such. Our criticism on multiculturalism is no plea for ethnic cleansing. But, we do want to stay boss in our own country. Furthermore, for a well functioning democracy, the population has to agree on a number of shared norms and values... We do not want to sacrifice our freedom and our norms and values on the altar of multiculturalism.


HEY CHARLES JOHNSON!!! SOUNDS ENOUGH LIKE MEIN KAMPF FOR YA?????!!!!????


Sheesh.


MFBB.

DEBUNKING CHARLES JOHNSON IS EASY AS PIE.

These days it seems I can't open up LGF or there's another smear from Charles Johnson, LGF founder and chief editor, against the party I am a member of, the Vlaams Belang (Flemish Interest). Mr. Johnson, who, btw, I still admire very much for keeping up a blog which learns us a gazillion of facts on the true nature of the "Religion of Peace", seems to have become convinced that the Vlaams Belang, and the Sweden Democrats party for that matter, are neo-nazi parties.

I can't really speak for the Sweden Democrats (Sverigedemokraterna), of which I had never heard before the Brussels Counterjihad Conference a couple of weeks ago. After looking briefly into their past, I did indeed find quite a lot of troublesome material. However, the party seems to have gotten rid of its Nazi supporters a decade ago: at least all the openly extremist members were expelled. They formed a fascist splinter party, the National Democrats, which is actually denouncing SD. Furthermore, I think it's hard to call SD anti-Semitic when it is led by a Jew, Ted Ekeroth, especially when that Jew won the Zionist Herzl Award 2006. Sverigedemokraterna's site also states that it considers the 1948 UN Declaration on Human Rights an inalienable centerpiece of its politics. Jesus, why do I bother you with facts? Check out their site yourself, it doesn't exactly look like Der Stuermer to me. If we are to apply Johnson's standards for judging a party, then the Democratic Party should be steered clear off because its leader in the Senate, Stephen Douglas (D-Illinois) pushed a pro-slavery act through Congress in 1854. Hey wait, now there's an idea...

As for the Vlaams Belang, the first shot fired by Johnson was the allegation that in 2005, the VB shunned a Resolution condemning the Nazi death camps.

The resolution Mr. Johnson is referring to is actually an EU Resolution, more specifically the January 27th, 2005 European Parliament Resolution PE 354.156 on Remembrance of the Holocaust, Anti-Semitism and Racism. Now here's the thing: imho anyone with a clear and objective view on things should notice the stink when a party like the VB is accused of not signing a Resolution condemning the Holocaust, because really, who, apart from the Nazis themselves and Ahmadinejad plus the usual suspects would not sign such a document? Why on earth would a party which is Israel's loudest supporter in the Belgian political landscape oppose a Holocaust Resolution??? The reason is very simple. The VB did not sign this resolution since it is a Leftist/Green fabrication intended to provide "legal" basis for prosecuting any European party opposing or at least questioning unburdened immigration. When we take a close look at PE 354.156 we find under Article 1:

"1. Pays homage to all the victims of the Nazis and is convinced that lasting peace in Europe must be based on remembrance of its history; rejects and condemns revisionist views and denial of the Holocaust as shameful and contrary to historical truth, and expresses concern over the rise of extremist and xenophobic parties and growing public acceptance of their views;"

In Flemish we have a saying: "Het venijn zit in de staart" meaning "the venom is in the tail". PE 354.156 bluntly links anyone denying the holocaust with "extremist and xenophobic parties". In reality, this will boil down to calling all parties who oppose the massive and unchecked immigration wave... Holocaust Deniers. Note that the immigration wave is to a large extent instigated, and fueled, by the same leftist and green parties with the specific aim of catering for the immigrants in return for votes!

It gets even better when we examine PE 354.156 more closely. Enshrined in it is a so-called Framework Decision on combating racism and xenophobia. Its opening sentence literally states:

The purpose of this framework decision is to ensure that, in the European Union, racism and xenophobia are punishable by effective, proportionate and dissuasive criminal penalties which can give rise to extradition or surrender; to improve and encourage judicial cooperation.

Ladies and gentlemen, there you have it: Punishable by Effective, Proportionate and Dissuasive Criminal Penalties. In other words, this so-called "Holocaust Resolution" provides nothing less than a "legal" instrument to kill parties opposing, a.o., unbridled immigration!THAT is the reason why the Vlaams Belang did not sign it!!! It's leftist reasoning all over again. If you can't beat them, sue them. You do not have to tell Filip Dewinter what that means. In a 2005 interview with a Jewish weekly he said a.o. "Yes, we’re afraid of Islam. The Islamization of Europe is a frightening thing." A multicultural youth organization (KifKif) and an "Anti-Racism" organization (aptly called MRAX, do I see a Freudian Slip there? Or is it rather a not so subtle hint?) promptly lodged a criminal complaint against him using Belgium's notorious "Anti-Racism Law", accusing him of inciting racial hatred. As a result of this complaint, one of the highest Belgian courts, the Council of State, is currently investigating whether the VB can be deprived of public funding (in Belgium, parties cannot receive gifts from companies and get funding from the State). This investigation's purpose is nothing less than an attempt to "kill" the Vlaams Belang financially. You can see how the mechanism works on the Belgian level. I shudder at the thought the same would be possible on the European level, and this is just what EU Resolution PE 354.156 intends to do.


PE 354.156, a Leftist/Green fabrication, is in its essence a shameful thing, as it recuperates one of the greatest horrors humanity has ever known for vile political purposes. To explain the VB's decision, Filip Dewinter wrote in an Open Letter to the Jewish Community on January 28, 2005:

Dear Citizens,

As a result of the unfortunate and untrue reports in the media concerning the attitude of Vlaams Belang in the European Parliament regarding a resolution “concerning the commemoration of the Holocaust, anti-Semitism and racism” I would be more than glad to put right what I for one and others would like to clarify.

Naturally Vlaams Belang bows down in deep respect for the suffering of all the victims of the Holocaust. The genocide against the Jewish people committed by the Nazi regime no one can never forget. The 60th anniversary of the release of the prisoners from the camp at Auschwitz is an excellent occasion to honor the victims and stands as a warning memory to the victims of every form of anti-Semitism and racism. I can refer to the MEP elected and party President Frank Vanhecke, who has also put this explicitly in his speech in the European Parliament with the following words: “Vlaams Belang bows down in deep respect for the Jews and for all the other victims of the criminal National Socialistic regime” [Nazi regime].

Unfortunately, some find it necessary to demonize a number of people from a successful and growing opposition with the use of a shameless abuse of the holocaust tragedy in the year 2006...

FYI, the VB did endorse a resolution condemning the Holocaust... in the Flemish Parliament. Because that resolution dispensed with the angle allowing for prosecution of immigration-critical parties. I wonder why Charles Johnson did not tell you that. Either way, LGF's Chief Editor took the accusation thrown at VB's feet hook, line and sinker. For a fella who has debunked the EU's "famous" soft-power resolutions so many times on his own blog, I thought he was smarter.


Now for his "Exhibit 2". According to Johnson, "a White Power flag at a Vlaams Belang rally this month. The other flags are Vlaams Belang."

Except this is not a VB rally, and these are not VB flags. It is a July 10, 2006 VJW rally, in which VJW stands for Vlaamse Jongeren Westland, or Flemish Youths Westland. This is their site. They are really a fringe group - until LGF posted the photo, I had not even heard of them - and it is quite hard to describe them. They appear to be fiercely nationalistic, anti-muslim but also anti-Israel, definitely anti-USA (burning US-flags), and heavily leftist leaning in their economic recipes (they favor nationalization!). And yes, I'd label these guys white supremacists. They amply use Celtic crosses, Odal runes and other (Neo)Nazi symbols, and they worship Flemish Waffen SS volunteers. To be sure, after some Internet rummaging I did find out that a handful of VJW members have ties with, or are also member of, the VB. I can only deplore this, and while I think it's a good thing the VB leadership almost from the beginning removed the (very few) VJW members from any post of importance, I'd rather like these idiots-stupid fucks-scumbags-morons-take your pick, to disappear from my party altogether.

But the bare fact remains that Johnson, when he claimed this was a VB rally and these were VB flags (the official VB flag can be seen here) was dead wrong. One really wonders why he unconditionally trusted his source, the obscure Belgian extreme-leftist blogger Yelloman. One last word about the use of Flemish flags together with a White Supremacist symbol: if we follow Johnson's logic, the US flag itself is a vile symbol, since Code Pink does also use the Star Spangled Banner at their rallies. How about that?


Then Johnson's "Exhibit 3". He writes: "As mentioned above, the predecessor to Vlaams Belang, Vlaams Blok, was outlawed in 2004. Their comeback as Vlaams Belang was applauded in 2005 by David Duke and the neo-Nazi skinheads at Stormfront." If you follow the Stormfront link, you come upon the start of a Discussion with the subject being "Pro-White Vlaams Belang Now Belgium's Strongest Party." First of all, the "Pro White Vlaams Belang" is a projection made by the Stormfront bozos. "Pro White" is not, and has never been, repeat NEVER, a VB denomination or motto. The VB-slogan which came closest to advocating white supremacy was "Eigen Volk Eerst" (Own People First), and even then it was a (very) far stretch, since "Eigen Volk" (Own People) stood for all "good" citizens with a Belgian ID, including the hundreds of thousands of Italians, French and Greeks who became, in decades past, respectable countrymen. The "Eigen Volk Eerst" slogan was dropped four years ago, when Vlaams Belang's predecessor, Vlaams Blok (Flemish Bloc) was outlawed. To be sure, I do feel more comfortable now that that motto is gone, but let us be honest here, what precisely is wrong with such an attitude? Does not a government has as its first priority the interests of its own people, and then the interests of citizens of other nationalities? Should by the logic of the Belgian Court not the whole population of Japan be outlawed, since they barely - if even that - allow immigration? A government has at its disposal a limited set of resources with which to pay employees' wages, pensions, infrastructure, hospitals, schools and what not. Is it not logical that a government uses these resources for its native inhabitants first? "Eigen Volk Eerst" is a cry from the early eighties, when nationwide unemployment was skyhigh and the leftist red carpet treatment (including positive discrimination) for newcomers, who did not even want to learn the language, started in earnest. Anno 2007 it is a demographic reality that Antwerp, the place where the slogan "Eigen Volk Eerst" was born, is slowly but steadily running out of "Whites" and people of other color fill the space. Close to 4,000 "White" Antwerpians flee the inner city every year, and 5,000 "Non-White" newcomers flow in. Is it asked too much WHY there is a White Flight? Why did native Belgians not move away when Italians moved into their neighborhoods en masse during the fifties? Furthermore, does not, in light of the stark reality of the rise of sloppiness, poverty and crime after the newcomers' arrival, sound a cry like "Eigen Volk Eerst" more like a sane, sad wish post factum than a racist battlecry? 2006 marked the first year that immigrants who do not even WISH Belgian nationality, were allowed to vote in municipal elections - exactly the reason why I joined the VB, btw. It was a common phenomenon that Moroccans, Turks and Algerians voted only for "their" candidates, which resulted in hitherto unknown Ahmeds, Fatimas and Alis, posted on "unelectable" places on (especially socialist and green) voting lists, miraculously jumped over the gullible indigenous "white" candidates. In Ghent, a Turkish candidate, Fuat Korkmazer, profiled himself in the first place as a Turk, NOT as a Belgian. Just LOOK at that poster (in Turkish!), and now look at the site of Bobby Jindal, US Congressman of Indian extraction, now Governor-Elect of Louisiana. What kind of flag is that huh? Were I an American in Louisiana, I'd feel verrrrry comfortable with my "brown" governor. Were I living in Ghent, I'd feel extremely uncomfortable with a mayor like Mr. Korkmazer. The Vlaams Blok had to drop the "Eigen Volk Eerst" slogan. "Non-whites" openly applied "Eigen Volk Eerst" - and the leftist loons pretend that their noses are bleeding.

Now back to Stormfront and David Duke. Are we to assume that the VB is a Stormfront susidiary, as Mr. Johnson alleges, just because that hatehole links to the VB site? If some Neonazi clusterfucker reads a DowneastBlog post, comes across twenty times "Stop Muslim Immigration to Western Countries", presumes I'm and links to it, does that make DowneastBlog a Neonazi site? In this very post I link to an extreme leftist blogger, the nutjob who provided Johnson with false photos. Plus, I link to the leftozoid hate site Blokwatch. Does that make ME a Code Pinko??? Jesus, and I wonder how many VB staffers even know David Duke. I will tell you one thing. David Duke may praise the Vlaams Belang, which he perceives as white supremacists because they happen to question the flood of non-whites flowing uncontrollably into our country. But the Vlaams Belang will NEVER praise David Duke.

To cut a long story short, the technique Charles Johnson uses here to attack the VB is known as "guilty by association". I read a book recently, "Digital Fortress" by Dan Brown. In it, a murderer (US government paid of course, what did you expect) kills each and everyone who came into contact, even randomly, with his target, a Japanese encoder. Guilty, or shall we say, "burned" by association. Dare I say that Mr. Johnson follows the same logic as that killer? Just because Stormfront links to the VB... the VB is guilty of the sins of Stormfront. Honestly Mr. Johnson... I am BAFFLED.

Just three "exhibits" debunked, 27 to go still... Or is it 28? Because Charles does not seem to get enough of it. In the process, got involved in a serious brawl with The Brussels Journal's Paul Belien. Called The Brussels Journal "Repugnant"... and gives as "proof"... three COMMENTS. Shall we examine LGF's comments section? No, honestly, can any sane individual who has regularly read Paul Belien's site over the past years claim in all seriousness that The Brussels Journal is "Repugnant"??? Either way, in my opinion Mr. Belien has done a fine job of defending both his site and the Vlaams Belang. I might add that neither I, nor Paul Belien, nor the Vlaams Belang itself have ever hidden the party's past, which has its ghosts. I wrote about that here. And I wrote again about it, not mincing my words, here:

...The struggle for recognition of the rich culture of Flanders and its language, Flemish (which relates to Dutch like American English relates to British English) inside a francophone Belgique has been long and hard, and on two occasions important organizations of Flemish activists have, in vain hopes of getting from under the Wallonian yoke, sided with a party they should have avoided: the German invader, both in World War I and in World War II. In 1914-1918 the German occupier had his Flamenpolitik, promising a degree of Flemish independence and a.o. a Flemish University in Gent. In 1940-1944 the Germans went further and extracted apart from political cooperation military cooperation: enough Flemings were drafted to finally form a Waffen SS infantry division, the 27th Waffen Grenadier “Langemarck”. In both conflicts, opportunistic Flemish populists got themselves used for unsavoury purposes for a bait, Flemish self-rule, which all to soon proved illusory – the German yoke simply replaced the Wallonian, and it was much worse. The awakening after the armistices in 1918 and 1945 was hard, and left the country with a body of embittered Flemish nationalist outcasts.

In the seventies, such various groups of Flemish Eastern Front veterans – tough men who had seen the endless steppes and proudly worn the typical shoulder patches with the Flemish Lion on a Feldgrau sleeve, almost inevitably flocked to the new political formation promising once more glory for Flanders: the Vlaams Blok, as it was called then and until 2004, when the party was banned by Belgium's politically correct establishment and it quickly had to take another identity as the Vlaams Belang.

But whether they went to Russia to fight Bolshevism or not, whether they were proud Flemings or not, I am sorry to say that among these men were convinced Nazis too, and they left their mark on the young formation. They were not in a majority position, but they were unmistakably there. And so nazi rhetoric from time to time surfaced, as well as references to white supremacy and contempt if not hatred of other races. Needless to say, back in those days I would never have joined the VB...

But that was then, and this is now. As far as I am concerned, my party is clean. No photos of Filip Dewinter (whose father and uncle were in the Resistance) with Jean-Marie Le Pen can change that. That one goes the rounds now on LGF, and it reminds me eerily of the photo with Rummy on Saddam's payroll. The (few) neonazis were expelled long ago, and today the VB is a decent, pro-free market, ethically conservative party any true GOP member would feel comfortable in. I am very glad to see that several powerful American bloggers and commentators have taken up the defense of my party, notably Pamela Geller from Atlas Shrugs. She has written very eloquently and with authority. View From the Right is truly excellent. But perhaps it is even better to let Diane West have the last word:

I refer to the very upsetting and undeserved Internet attacks — mainly being lent credence by the blog Little Green Footballs — on Vlaams Belang, the Flemish secessionist party in Belgium. The attacks allege that Vlaams Belang has ties and allegiance to Nazi-type ideologies and organizations. I find these attacks both sloppy and unconvincing. Vlaams Belang is not only the most stalwart, resolutely anti-jihad party in Europe that I know of, but also — and, not at all incidentally — the most pro-Israel party in Europe that I know of. In other words, it is ridiculous to suggest that they are Nazis — neo-, South American, Religious Right, or Other.

Indeed, it is crucial to understand that Vlaams Belang’s political opponents in Europe are the Islamo-Socialist Left, which is where vicious anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism now finds its ideological home. Vlaams Belang is fighting, virtually alone, the Islamization of Europe. For that they deserve both our gratitude and our support.

MESSAGE TO MUSLIMS.

I owe the DowneastBlog readership - the well-meaning part anyway - an explanation. DowneastBlog is not my project. This blog saw the light in Spring 2003, and its founders were Tom and Kerry D. and Scott F. from Maine, USA. I was hoisted aboard by Kerry D. in November 2003, now almost four years ago, as European guestwriter. It just happens to be that I seem to be the most prolific writer - even if my working schedule limits me to one post a week at best. Either way, one should know that the opinions voiced on this blog are not necessarily the opinions of its founders. I bear the sole responsibility for statements made in posts written by me. Also, Tom, Kerry and Scott can end our cooperation at any time, as I have told them on several occasions.

Yesterday I did a post which contained two inflammatory statements. The first was the title: "IF EUROPE IS TO SURVIVE, IT WILL HAVE TO DEPORT ALL MUSLIMS. REPEAT. ALL OF THEM." The second one could be found towards the end: "The cancer of islam must be eradicated."

A man should never take important decisions when he is angry. I took the decision to post these very harsh statements in a state of utmost anger. In the light of a new day, I now feel that the first statement is unfair towards a certain percentage of muslims - a rather small percentage though, I fear. With regards to the second statement, I feel compelled to say that even at the precise moment that I wrote it down, I only had in mind eradication of an ideology, not of people.

Either way, I'm not removing or adapting yesterday's post. Let those harsh words be a testimony to the growing anger many Europeans feel for a creeping attack on the Treasure of our Christian-inspired Values and Traditions, and hard-fought for Liberties - even, or shall I say especially, when the fight was to a great extent done by Friends from overseas.

This is a message to all muslims reading this blog. Those among you living in Europe, or planning to do so, should keep in mind that you have to abide by OUR laws. You shall RESPECT them, and you shall RESPECT our Heritage and Traditions. You SHALL NOT impose your laws or lifestyle here, for it is abundantly clear that they lead to loss of liberty, poverty and a degradation of human dignity. If you heed this advice, if you display a sound labor ethic, if you allow others to disagree with you even when that means accepting harsh judgments on your religion and traditions, and if you truly want to be a contributing citizen whose first loyalty is to the country of your choice, I GUARANTEE you that you will be accepted and respected here.

If you do not agree with the above, know that if necessary we will use VIOLENCE to defend what is ours. If you dream of Jihad, BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR. Others have wrongly thought before you that man-made democratic rule leads to weak and decadent societies. While it is true that the freedom and prosperity our liberal Western societies generate, are not appreciated by a certain class of weaklings among us, there are plenty of others who will not sit idly by when the foundations of our societies are dismantled. Winston Churchill said "We must recognize that we have a great inheritance in our possession,
which represents the prolonged achievement of the centuries;
that there is not one of our simple uncounted rights today
for which better men than we are have not died on the scaffold or the battlefield."

... and far too much blood has been shed for those "simple uncounted rights" than that we shall let them take away without a fight.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

_____________________________________________



To readers who are no muslims - know what causes our anger. Just one example among many:

MURDER ATTEMPTS ON SIOE/SIAD DENMARK LEADER AND MEMBERS.

(Note: SIOE/SIAD stands for Stop the Islamization of Europe, more precisely its Danish chapter. Its leader is Anders Gravers. The following is from their website. I polished their English up a bit, since it wasn't exactly kosher).



Sunday 21 October saw not only a severe attack on freedom of speech but an attempt to forever close the mouth of an organisation which stands up for freedom, freedom of speech and democracy. By coincidence it didn’t end up with murder like in Holland, on one of the brave advocates for freedom of expression who dare to stand in the frontline.

On Sunday October SIOE Denmark had announced a demonstration in Copenhagen. Read the previous post. Before the demo Anders Gravers (SIOE and SIAD) and 2 other members were driving in a van with three seats in front, following the security car, in which an elderly woman of 74 (photo) and member of SIAD, and another SIAD member were passengers.

Anders was driving and followed the security car down an underground parking lot so the cars would be in a secure place before the demo. He drove very slowly down the ramp because apperently the ceiling height was very limited. The driveway is very steep and is divided by concrete pillars. Because of the delay, the driver of the security car got out of his car to open the metal gate again since it was closing after 30 secs already, so that we could enter the cellar. He directed the van forwards closely along the pillars and directly in front of a big concrete pillar supporting the cellar roof.

Two to five seconds later there was a loud bang and the frontwindow was damaged. Two foreign looking types were in the front and two on each side smashing the side windows shouting "Get him out get him out!" and started hitting Anders and the SIAD passenger in the other side with iron bars. The SIAD member in the middle (foto) was hit by in the backhead by a bottle. Anders succeeded after a while to kick one of the foreigners hard in the face as he leaned in to unlock the door. Anders mananged to get out with a fire extinguisher from the van and hit another one hard on the shoulder. It transpired later that they attempted to stab him since cutting holes were found in his shirt, jacket and vest. Anders was wearing his security vest which saved his life.

Suddenly they disappeared and Anders got around the van and saw a SIAD member (foto top) lying on the floor while he was beaten on his head by 4-5 persons with iron bars. Apperently they also tried to knife him down, but again he also wore his security vest which saved his life.

Suddenly someone screamed "RUN! RUN!" and they disappeared up the steep driveway. The elderly woman was lying on the floor completely still. She had been in the security car and had gotten out immediately when the driver shouted "OUT! OUT!" She didn’t know what to do and started running. She was hunted down by two persons and banged down with an ironbar. She lay completely still in the hope she wouldn’t get anymore. She felt they stood a moment watching her if she would move. Then they presumably ran to the other SIAD member on the floor and joined the attack on him.

It was impossible to call the police in the cellar because of bad connection. But fortunately the caretaker of the building came down right after by coincidence and alarmed the police and ambulance. The wounded, 2 men and 2 women decided that the best thing Anders could do was to complete the demonstration. That would be a slap in the face on the undemocratic and fascist forces who have tried to shut us down forever. Anders agreed, apart from bruises on arm and body he felt allright and after talking to the police he drove away and completed the demonstration in front of the Institute of human rights.


Photos via the SIAD site. So ladies and gentlemen, this is Freedom of Speech in Denmark, Europe, 2007. Did you hear anything about this in the MSM? Of course you didn't. Mr. Gravers DID make the news though one and a half month ago, when he was arrested in Brussels for peacefully protesting the Islamization of Europe. Guess what the chances are the perpetrators who narrowly failed to kill Anders & Co. will be arrested? Zero, zilch, nada, nichts, rien, niets. Speaking about our friends from the Brussels Police: one and a half month ago they had guts enough to pinch VB members in the balls. Right now, they are apparently less eager to do the same with Turkish teenagers torching cars in Brussels.

Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS Mr. Anders for succesfully fighting off the scumbags. I don't suppose they were Hindus.


MFBB.

IF EUROPE IS TO SURVIVE, IT WILL HAVE TO DEPORT ALL MUSLIMS. REPEAT. ALL OF THEM.

Actually, I don't like it. I don't like writing stuff like further up. For one thing, there's things out there that in se are way more interesting. The Boeing-Airbus controversy e.g., and why imho Airbus made the right decision to build the A380. The Large Hadron Collider currently being built near Geneva, and the Quest for the "God-Particle". The Polish elections, which were a win-win contest for the Polish Right either way. The bankruptcy of the European Welfare State. Why calling the Nazis "Extreme Right" is the Biggest Political Lie of all time. The woes of Galileo, Europes answer to the US's GPS system. Plus a host of other things.

But I keep coming back to what is rapidly becoming an existential theme.

I'm sorry if I'm boring you, but I can't shut up.

A.) WEEKLONG RIOTS IN AMSTERDAM.

On Sunday, October 14, Bilal Bajaka, a Dutch youth of Moroccan descent, or shall we rather say a Moroccan living off Dutch Social Security, stepped into a police station in Slotervaart, one of Amsterdam's western neighborhoods, and randomly started stabbing the police officers present. One policeman received five stabs (one of them deep in the throat hitting the wind pipe) as well as several cuts in face and shoulders. An artery in his head was hit. His colleague, a female sergeant, was little better off, being stabbed in the chest and the back. A pulmonary artery was cut and a lung perforated. Yet she somehow managed to pull her weapon and shoot the scumbag dead. The parents of Mr. Bajaka complained that their son had been released too early from the mental institution he was in. They were visited the day after by Slotervaart Mayor Ahmed Marcouch, who offered his condolences (there was no report from a visit to the severely wounded police officers, then still fighting for their lives). Bilal Bajaka was the brother of one Abdullah Bajaka, who two years ago was arrested for planning to blow up an El Al Boeing at Schiphol Airport. And in 2003, when in jail (Bajaka first started to appear in police records in 1998, when he was, uh, thirteen), he was visited there by Mohammed Bouyeri, the murderer of Theo Van Gogh. Of course, all this must be coincidence.


Not one day later police first reported growing tensions among the local "youths" and then stones thrown through the windows. It appeares the largely moroccan neighborhood did not appreciate the shooting of a criminal from among their own, and especially not by an infidel chick. Monday, October 17, all hell broke loose. Over the course of one week, tens of cars were torched, media crews who were filming the events attacked, and the indigenous population, I assume a minority in Slotervaart, terrorized. In a perverse act of symbolism, a funeral service for Bajaka was held in a mosque in the immediate vicinity of the police station which was attacked (Dutch blog Klein Verzet reports it was the same mosque he visited before he went into the police station). Throughout the week the Dutch police presented a baffling show of inactivity, not intervening and hardly making any arrests even when cars were put on fire literally under their noses. It's not that the officers themselves did not want to act, they were ordered not to do anything, and the Amsterdam Police Chief, Bernard Welten, even officially announced this so-called De-escalation Policy on Dutch TV. Welten literally said that he wanted to avoid a Parisian scenario and that it was therefore necessary to "keep the peace at all cost." In this he was supported firmly by Amsterdam Mayor Job Cohen, who, when a Dutch Police Union asked for at least a ban on demonstrations, replied that that was unnecessary. Job Cohen is a prominent member of the PvdA, one of the Dutch Socialist parties.


By Tuesday, fire crews had to be escorted by police. All through the week and the week thereafter, cars were set alight by rampaging moroccan youths, with the unrest spreading to the adjacent neigborhoods of Osdorp and Geuzenveld-Slotermeer. Finally, by Friday, October 27, things seemed to come to a rest at last, with "only" two cars burned the previous night. Now, while the vandalims of Amsterdam's muslim scum got a fair deal of attention, mostly thanks to blogs, similar events in another major Dutch city, Den Haag (The Hague) went almost unnoticed. A most disturbing story came from Dutch daily De Telegraaf, which wrote that indigenous inhabitants of the Transvaal and Schilderswijk neighborhoods dare not report their torched cars and damage done to their property to the police for fear of reprisals from the moroccan perpetrators. Yes, it has come so far.




B.) WEEKLONG RIOTS IN BRUSSELS.

Sorry, too sick of it all to write any further. Big photo from Elaib Harvey, TBJ editor. Little one from a Belgian newspaper. In Brussels, the perpetrators are Turkish youths. On Sunday night they busted an Armenian cafe because they were fed up with reports from PKK rebels killing Turkish troops. Apparently the Turks thought that their cause - their indignation over Kurshish muslim rebels killing regular Turkish Army conscripts - was furthered by smashing to smithereens a cafe owned by a Christian. Anyway, police was in the neighborhood but did nothing. They were more active in September, when they beat up Vlaams Belang members peacefully protesting the islamization of Europe. The incident at the cafe marked the start of a weeklong period of car burning, rock throwing, and shop busting. Filthy dogs, all of them. Biting the hand that feeds them.





More details tomorrow. Check for updates.

This can't go on. The cancer of islam must be eradicated.

UPDATE: CHARLES JOHNSON IS MAKING A BIG MISTAKE.

Over the past few days, there have been a disturbing series of allegations that the Vlaams Belang is a neonazi party. Videos have been sent - reportedly by an extreme leftwing Belgian blogger (Yelloman) to LGF's Charles Johnson and he seems to have been lured into believing the crap.

Please, for God's sake. Someone email Johnson. I have NEVER denied that the origins of the Vlaams Belang/Vlaams Blok were murky. There's even several posts in this blog which explain that in detail. But you got it all to see from a Flemish perspective. Throughout Belgian history, EVEN TILL TODAY, Flemings have been treated like second rate citizens. EVEN TODAY, Flemings must put up thousands of more votes to get an MP elected to the federal parliament compared to the number of votes it takes for the French-speaking Walloons to elect an MP of their own. EVEN TODAY, the number of Flemish ministers in the federal government is equal to the number of Walloon ministers, even though the ratio of Flemings to Walloons is 6 to 4. You MUST understand that in the past, unfortunately, SOME Flemings sided with the Germans who falsely promised them greater self-rule. I have NEVER denied that when the Vlaams Blok was raised in 1977 to fight for legitimate Flemish rights, a number of people who had collaborated with the Nazis were there too. And I would never have joined the VB in that time. But anno 2007 the VB, in the meantime the Vlaams Belang, has become a modern party with an agenda that is as close to the GOP's agenda as any European party can get. THAT IS MY HONEST OPINION.

We over here in Europe NEED parties like Vlaams Belang. We are facing a mortal threat in the form of islamization and inside Belgium, the VB is the only political power seriously addressing the issue. Who cares when Filip Dewinter was a hothead in his student years? Btw, I have NEVER seen him sporting a swastika. Jesus Christ, compared to Ann Coulter Filip Dewinter is a schoolboy. It was The Netherland's Geert Wilders who called for banning the Koran, not Dewinter: HE defended publication of that terrible book. Who cares about a few godforsaken lapsuses? WHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT A CELTIC CROSS ON HIS BOOKSHELF??? I like the Celtic Cross myself, and I am by no means someone who looks down upon people of other colour! We come from the Celts!

Please, tell Charles Johnson he is making a GRAVE MISTAKE by smearing the VB. In a time like this, WE NEED TO BE ALLIES, NOT ENEMIES. He's being bombarded now with futile reports and dubious photos from leftists.... and he's stepping into the trap. Let me show you another Filip Dewinter:



VB strongman Filip Dewinter shaking hands with rabbi Pinchas Meyers. TELL CHARLES JOHNSON THE VB IS PROTECTING BELGIUM'S JEWS!!!!

In March 2004, Filip Dewinter held in a meeting organized by the Antwerp VB chapter a passionate plea for the State of Israel, saying that "Israel is the vanguard of the West in a feudal Middle East". Among those present was Avi Lipkin, a jewish author and former spokesman for the Israeli Army. Dewinter's speech was so eloquent and convincing, highlighting Israels brave struggle and its prodigious accomplishments, that after the speech Mr. Lipkin HEARTILY EMBRACED FILIP DEWINTER!!!

CHARLES JOHNSON, DOES THIS GUY SOUND LIKE YOUR TYPICAL NEO-NAZI TO YOU??????

Please, let someone tell Mr. Johnson that he is wrong with his misgivings. I emailed him, but I fear he didn't notice. I'm not "pulling", I do not do this for attention. I am just a very concerned citizen - I am not telling you one hundredth of what happens here - and I fear for the future of my children in an islamized Europe.

I DO NOT WANT MY CHILDREN TO LIVE IN AN ISLAMIZED EUROPE. IN BELGIUM, THE VLAAMS BELANG IS OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE TO SAFEGUARD OUR LIBERTIES AND STAND UP FOR OUR VALUES. IT MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL THAT LGF AND JOHNSON, OF ALL PEOPLE, SHOULD COME TO DENOUNCE US. WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER. WE CANNOT AFFORD DIVISION.

BAD NEWS FROM IRAQ.

From Yahoo!News:

AS VIOLENCE FALLS IN IRAQ, CEMETERY WORKERS FEEL THE PINCH

By Jay Price and Qasim Zein, McClatchy Newspapers
Tue Oct 16, 2:40 PM ET

NAJAF, Iraq — At what's believed to be the world's largest cemetery, where Shiite Muslims aspire to be buried and millions already have been, business isn't good.

A drop in violence around Iraq has cut burials in the huge Wadi al Salam cemetery here by at least one-third in the past six months, and that's cut the pay of thousands of workers who make their living digging graves, washing corpses or selling burial shrouds....

...Dhurgham Majed al Malik, 48, whose family has arranged burial services for generations, said that this spring, private cars and taxis with caskets lashed to their roofs arrived at a rate of 6,500 a month. Now it's 4,000 or less, he said... The burials aren't expensive, usually $200 or less, but many people draw their income from them....

That @/?##ç0§ç!è#&!!!!!! BUSH!!! BUSH IS THE CRIMINAL!!!!!

Hat tip Blackfive. Jesus Christ.

COUNTERJIHAD BRUSSELS 2007.

Better late than never. Last Thursday and Friday, October 18 and 19, more than 70 organizations and personalities gathered in both the European Parliament and the Flemish Parliament to signal the start of a European network to resist the increasing Islamization of most European countries. Actually, I was amazed that such meetings could be held in the EP and the Flemish Parliament altogether, given the still overwhelming footprint of politically correct politicians in both Halls of Power. I strongly suspect that Vlaams Belang parliamentarians from both the EP and the FP somehow managed to have the tribunes available for what turned out to be an impressive cast. Indeed, speakers included Bat Ye’or, author of Eurabia and Dhimmitude and Jihadwatch's Robert Spencer, author of Religion of Peace? Why Christianity is and Islam Isn’t, and Dr. Patrick Sookhdeo, Director of the Institute for the Study of Islam and Christianity and a former muslim. Furthermore David Littman, UN Human Rights expert, MK (Member of Knesset) Dr. Arieh Eldad, leader of the new Israeli political movement Hatikvah (hope), Sam Solomon, Director of the Fellowship of Faith for Muslims and author of the Charter of Muslim Understanding, Dr. Marc Cogen from Ghent University, Dr. Andrew Bostom, author of The Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism, and many more.

If you check out blogs dealing with the subject you will find that several use this photo, which I find a somewhat unfortunate choice. It's an aerial shot from between the two spires of the Koekelberg Basilica, or National Basilica of the Holy Heart (magnificent photo here), one of the world's greatest churches, designed by architect Albert Van Huffel in Art Deco style and built between 1905 and 1970 (!). The blog photo superimposes two islamic crescents on the spires as well as one at what appears to be the end of the Leopold II boulevard. I'm sorry, but imho my choice for an illustration is a better fitting one, see above. The statue on Brussels' Royal Square of Godfrey of Bouillon, the "Belgian" crusader, born around 1060 in Baisy-Thy near Brussels, who together with Bohemund of Normandy , Raymond of Toulouse and Robrecht of Flanders answered Pope Urban II's call to wrestle Jerusalem from Islamic control and set out on the First Crusade in 1096. I am sorry to say that the taking of Jerusalem in 1099 was accompanied by widespread looting, burning and murder (it is said all muslims inside the city walls were killed, including women and children), in which, luckily, Godfrey seems to have taken no part. After several other prominent crusaders refused the title of King of Jerusalem, Godfrey of Bouillon was the logical choice, but while he indeed accepted responsibility, he refused to be named King himself, asking to be called only Defender of the Holy Sepulchre.

Enough about history now, on both meetings anti-islamization experts and activists from fourteen European countries offered reports on the current state of Islamisation and jihadism in their respective nations, as well as on attempts to mount a defense of our Christian-inspired values and hard-fought for constitutional liberties; they were:

from Austria: Elizabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff
from Belgium: Filip Dewinter
from the Czech Republic: Matyas Zmo
from Denmark: Lars Hedegaard
from Finland: not disclosed publicly
from France: Nidra Poller
from Germany: Stefan Herre
from Italy: Adriana Bolchini Gaigher
from The Netherlands: Dr. Johannes J.G. Jansen
from Norway: Jens Anfindsen
from Romania: Traian Ungureanu
from Sweden: Ted Ekeroth
from Switzerland: Dr. Arnaud Dotezac
from the United Kingdom: Gerard Batten

Other activists represented Canada, Israel and the United States. I would wager that one of the most impressive US participants was Pamela Geller, from Atlas Shrugs. I hope that she won't hold it against me that I use a photo of her together with Dr. Arieh Eldad, who was for 25 years Chief of the IDF's Medical Corps:



She has an outstanding, very elaborate post on the Counterjihad Conference (which on October 18 went through in the European Parliament and the day after in the Flemish Parliament), provides videos and text fragments and cites many speakers, such as Mrs. Adriana Bolchini Gaiger, Lega Nord politician and organiser of 9/11 commemmoration rallies. Mrs. Gaigher:

Muslims are demanding seperate beaches and restricted use of swimming pools and calls to consider Friday the festive day for Muslims (where it is not even in practice in Islamic countries.) Further demands are being made for 5 pauses for prayer during study and work times which interrupts the rhythms of all other workers and damages the freedom of study and work for the Italian population at large.

Reports of maltreatment of women dominate the newspaper crime reports. These are the ones that come to the attention of the public, but we know the tragedy of Muslim women segregated at home and subjected to ill treatment is so very widespread. Their Calvary begins when they arrive in Italy. They are isolated from the indigenous population are not sent to school, do not learn the language and therefore they cannot communicate with us and cannot ask for assisitance. Not that they would. Terrified to I am sure.

New and hurried construction of mosques has become an emergency, they excpect them as an urgent need and there is not one Italian city that is not affected by this problem. They are not simply mosques but Islamic citadels, catering to their needs from birth to death seperating them from the Italians. The main problem is that these Centers are under the influence of UCLII (unione delle Communita' e Organization Islamiche in Italia) whose President and former secretary Robberto Piccado was investigated for "incitement to to ethni and religious hatred" and "apologism for terrorism". Charges levelled by two paliamentarians.

These meetings are hopefully the start of a Europeanwide awareness of the grave dangers that islamification poses to Europe, not only to its values and liberties, but ultimately also to its cultural and historical heritage as well as its economic and scientific progress. With regards to the latter, the threat posed to them by Islamification may well constitute the most convincing impetus for Europe to stop its pandering to this heinous, alien politico-religious ideology. It may - again - not be the most politically correct thing to say, but throughout Europe we can clearly see that the muslim communities in our midst do not, repeat NOT, provide us with skilled labour and bright scientists. If the demographic trends continue, who then will man Europes factories and laboratories come the year 2050?

I can imagine that leftozoid whackos can live with churches converted into mosques, beheaded 16th-century statues and Botticelli's The Birth of Venus painted over or burnt - because that is the fate of that work if one bad day a muslim becomes Director of Florence's Uffizi Gallery. After all, all cultures are equal except ours which is actually inferior, and those Bamiyan Buddhas were crumbling anyway. But will they accept that our industry crumbles down, not longer producing swell cars and high-tech gizmos? I doubt it.
