LONDON'S NEW MAYOR SADIQ KHAN'S UNHEALTHY TIES TO MUSLIM EXTREMISTS.

Over here as in the UK the MSM are swooning over London's first ever muslim mayor, Sadiq Khan. What we get are the feelgood stories about his humble past (son of a busdriver and all).

What we do not get is Paul Weston's revelations. Via our buddies at Gates of Vienna:

The Innocence of Sadiq Khan
by Paul Weston

"When the prevailing ethos of a country’s political and media class is one of insanity and/or national suicide, no one should be too surprised when what was once thought unthinkable becomes a sudden and shocking reality. A good example of this is the crowning of Sadiq Khan as Mayor of London, which could be compared in terms of lunacy to the appointment of Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn as Chairman of the Friends of Israel Society.

Sadiq KhanI don’t necessarily think the smoothly urbane and thoroughly slippery Sadiq Khan is a potential leader of armed Islamic insurrection in London, but nor do I believe he is the benign and unthreatening sort of awfully-nice-Muslim-next-door-chappy that the BBC et. Al. would like us to believe. After all, if judged by the company Sadiq Khan has kept, he would appear to be yet another one of those Muslim politicians who say one thing to their Eloi English audience and quite another to their own community when well out of infidel earshot.

Consider the following: Mr Khan’s brother-in-law, Makbool Javaid, was a supporter of the terrorist organisation Al-Muhajiroun which became notorious for its September 2002 conference “The Magnificent 19” praising the September 11, 2001 attacks. Mr Javaid appeared alongside some of the country’s most infamous hate preachers, and in 1998 his name appeared on a fatwa calling for a “full-scale war of jihad” against Britain and the US.

Mr Khan’s brother-in-law went on to become head of Litigation Services at the Commission for Racial Equality… the further one looks down the multicultural rabbit hole of Britain, the more surreal the whole thing becomes. Mr Javaid is currently a partner at legal firm Simons Muirhead and Burton and lists amongst his Facebook friends CAGE director Moazzam Begg and fellow director Asim Qureshi, who described the Islamic State butcher Jihadi John as a “beautiful young man”. Sadiq Khan is intimately connected with all of these people, which is not something that could be said of Boris Johnson, London’s previous and altogether different type of Mayor.


Modern Multicultural Britain

Sadiq Khan was on the board of the “civil liberties” pressure group Liberty (NCCL) for three years, along with a certain Mr Azad Ali, who has excused the murder of British soldiers and was involved with the extremist organisations Islamic Forum of Europe and Jamaat e Islami. Azad Ali is currently Head of Community Development & Engagement at the organisation MEND which seeks to undermine the British government’s counter-terrorism strategy. And speaking of going down surreal rabbit holes, Azad Ali is an adviser to the police and Home Office on police procedure, a member of the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) and sits on the Home Office’s Trust and Confidence Community Panel… and last but not least is a board member of the extremist boot-boy outfit Unite Against Fascism, which is also supported by the British Prime Minister David Cameron…


The Mayor of London has peculiar friends, it must be said, but who could possibly know just how many? Sadiq Khan has represented the Nation of Islam’s Louis Farrakhan, who — just in case people have forgotten — called for the mass murder and destruction of the white race. In addition, Khan has defended the Taliban supporter Babar Ahmad, the Saudi Arabian “charity worker” Shaker Aamer and the spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood Yusuf al Qaradawi, who called the murder of Israeli civilians a legitimate act. Strange bedfellows all, it really has to be said.

Sadiq Khan explains all this away as part and parcel of life within the civil rights world, but all those he defends seem to have a particular set of political ideals and a particular religious/racial background. I have searched for details with regard to the Mayor of London ever having defended the human rights of Sgt Blackman (Marine A) or Tommy Robinson, but my searches have sadly come to nought. Sadiq Khan has no time for patriotic Englishmen, it would seem, which is somewhat unfortunate for the non-Muslim population of London…

Mr Khan’s speechwriter Shueb Salar has finally been sacked for all sorts of vile outbursts on Twitter concerning homosexuality and women (faggots and ho’s as described by Mr Salar) and other such bugbears of Islamic prejudice — which included the suggestion that Fusilier Lee Rigby’s murder had been faked. But Sadiq Khan only got round to sacking him after the media shamed him into doing so. Considering London has more than its fair share of “faggots and hoes’ in Islamic eyes, one can only wonder how the new Mayor will treat them…

The Mayor of London has so many links to so many unpleasant people and organisations, it becomes incredibly boring transcribing them in their entirety. I suggest people read this one article which covers Sadiq Khan’s alliance with the extremist Islamic student organisation FOSIS, his praise for the Islam Channel despite its being constantly fined for promoting radicalisation, and his apparent inability to recognise the black flag of Islam as a terrorist symbol after it was waved by an audience member during a Sadiq Khan speech.






In 2004 Sadiq Khan was Chairman of the Muslim Council of Britain’s (MCB) legal affairs committee. Those in the know were already talking about the MCB as a front for the Muslim Brotherhood, but it took another five-years before the Labour government finally got around to recognising it as such and dropping it like a hot potato.


Shariah for the UK

There is far more out there about Khan’s strange past if you are prepared to search for it, but I think we can reasonably concur that whilst he may not actually be a supporter of Islamic terror, he is most certainly not the sort of man who should be Mayor of London. The fact that he took his oath on the Koran when he was first elected as an MP tells us all we need to know about his true allegiance, as does his attitude toward moderate Muslims, whom he described on Iran’s Press TV channel as Uncle Toms.

And so the previously unthinkable has become the present reality. A Muslim man with way too many extremist links to be entirely coincidental is now the Mayor of London. I suppose this is hardly a shock, though. The native English are a demographic minority (and a rapidly dwindling one) in London, whilst Muslims from Pakistan and Bangladesh are a rapidly expanding demographic.

In a couple more decades Britain may well have its first Muslim Prime Minister, and I think we can safely assume he will be of the same ideological stock as Sadiq Khan. Reality cannot argue with demographics, so the realistic future for Britain is Islamic, which doesn’t bode well for the Jews and Christians, or indeed anyone not actually Muslim. They might wake up in time, but I rather doubt it.

Why do I rather doubt it? David Cameron was denounced as a racist by white native Britons for raising concerns about Sadiq Khan’s past, and I will leave you with a taste of our probable future courtesy of Andrew Boff, Conservative leader of the Greater London Assembly, who stated that criticism of Mr Khan’s myriad links with extremists was:

“Effectively saying that people of conservative religious views are not to be trusted and you should not share a platform with them. That’s outrageous… I do believe it’s going to affect Conservatives at the sharp end, especially in those parts of London where there is a high Muslim population.”

Do you understand what he means by this? I do. He is saying the Conservative Party is aware of the growing power of Islam in Britain, and that rather than confront the extreme elements of it, politicians should instead get on their knees before it.

And until there is a revolution (or more accurately a counter-revolution) in Britain, that is exactly what will happen. We will continue to submit, even as we watch France, Germany, Holland, Sweden and ALL the ex-Communist Central European countries currently rising up in a concerted and organised political manner against Islam.

In order to fully lose your country, you first have to lose your capital city. Sadiq Khan, a Muslim with countless extremist links, won 44% of the vote. UKIP won a mere 4%. We have now lost London in religious, racial, political and cultural terms, so it is up to us as to whether we go on to lose our country. What are you going to do about it?

In point of fact, what is Nigel Farage and UKIP going to do about it? Write a letter to The Daily Telegraph?

Even better, how about writing a letter to the new Mayor of London?"

Paul Weston is a British-based writer who focuses on the damage done to Western Civilisation by the hard left’s ongoing cultural revolution, which seeks to destroy the Christian, capitalist and racial base of the West. He is now one of the leaders of PEGIDA UK, and is also the leader of Liberty GB.



Londoners, you broke it. You own it.

SATURDAY NIGHT BUFFALO TOM, CARLY SIMON.

Buffalo Tom with Taillights Fade. From the 1992 album Let me come over.




No hit in the States apparently, but they did play it regularly on Studio Brussel in the early nineties. Buffalo Tom celebrates 30 years this year: they formed in 1986 in Boston, MA. The name is derived from sixties band Buffalo Springfield and the first name of the drummer, Tom Maginnis.



Carly Simon with the beautiful ballad It's hard to be tender (1989). It's the title song of the television series Sins.




Singer/songwriter from NYC. She's a daughter of Richard Simon, one of the founders of the publishing house Simon and Schuster.

A GLIMPSE OF BRITAIN'S FUTURE: MUSLIM SCHOOLCHILDREN MARCHING THROUGH BOLTON, UK, YELLING "ALLAHU AKBAR".

Watch a muslim class walking through Bolton, UK, yelling "Allahu Akbar":




Future murderers, beheaders, and breeding chickens for jihad. Courtesy Liblabcon, but Labour especially, of course.

And while we get here a glimpse of Britain's unhealthy future, we get another stark reminder of the intrusions of this vile "religion" in UK politics with the victory of Sadiq Khan in the contest to become Mayor of London. Below you see a photo of him holding a placard with one of his stated goals - importing even more electoral cattle:




Khan likes to profile himself as a "moderate" muslim and he has reportedly even backed gay marriage.

But as this Daily Mail article proves, there's a lot to worry about in his curriculum:

"The politician has apparently made nine appearances alongside Sulaiman Ghani, a radical cleric who said was a supporter of ISIS and believes homosexuality is 'unnatural'.

MailOnline also revealed this year that in 2009 he supported groups promoting Islamic extremism and gave a speech while the 'black flag of jihad' was openly flying in the hands of children.

...

But Mr Khan's former brother-in-law, Makbool Javaid, preached hatred against non-Muslims at a rally in Trafalgar Square – with the 'black flag of jihad' flying behind him.

And he suspended his Commons-based speechwriter after he laughed about seeing homosexuals being abused in public, and made reference to 'hoes' and 'f***ing f****ts' – on a Twitter feed followed by the Labour mayoral hopeful.

Shueb Salar, who has represented Mr Khan at public events, continued to post them after he started working for Mr Khan in the run-up to last year's General Election.

Among the messages Mr Salar posted on Twitter was 'advice to anyone who's looking to murder their girlfriend and get away with it LOL'."

London is 40 per cent foreigners (and 40 per cent of the country's muslims live in London). It is clear that Khan was elected not so much because of administrative qualifications, but because he was both non-white and a muslim.

The election of Sadiq Khan can be seen as the definitive start of the 'Go after Whitey' campaign. A mere twenty years from now - if that long - increasingly, whites will be treated in their own cities and countries as second rank citizens.

Winston Churchill is turning in his grave.

MUSTANG "SCAT VII" OF LEGENDARY TRIPLE ACE ROBIN OLDS FLYING FROM DEURNE AIRPORT, ANTWERP.

I don't know how they did it but a small band of Belgian aviation enthusiasts, who organized themselves in the non-profit The Vintage Dream Factory, was able to acquire the Scat VII, a P-51 Mustang flown by legendary triple ace Colonel Robin Olds. They rebuilt the famous fighter as a two-seater and are now offering paid flights from Deurne Airport, near Antwerp.

At the start of the non-profits' operations, Col. Olds' daughter, Christina Olds, was present:

And a BIG thumbs-up for our Air Force which, in a time of severe budget cuts, was willing to honor Col. Olds and his famous mount by providing a wingman in an F-16!

I have always tremendously appreciated and liked the P-51's manifold qualities, be it it's prowess as an air supremacy fighter, it's amazing radius of action, it's impressive armament, and it's sleek design. I understand there's to this day heated arguments as to which was the best WWII figher, and on the American side there's apparently still a contest going on between the P-51 and the P-47, with adamant supporters - and good arguments - for both. As for me - I'm definitely a Mustang guy.

More info later. Hopefully time will allow me to provide some background on Colonel Olds too, a legend in his own right. Time time time... always lacking time.

RECOMMENDED READS: GIULIO MEOTTI'S "THE GREAT WESTERN RETREAT".

Over at The Gatestone Institute, a brilliant article by Giulio Meotti, "The Great Western Retreat".

"... On March 11, 2004, 192 people were killed and 1,400 wounded in a series of terrorist attacks in Madrid. Three days later, Spain's Socialist leader, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, was elected prime minister. Just 24 hours after being sworn in, Zapatero ordered Spanish troops to leave Iraq "as soon as possible."

The directive was a monumental political victory for extremist Islam. Since then, Europe's boots on the ground have not been dispatched outside Europe to fight jihadism; instead, they have been deployed inside the European countries to protect monuments and civilians.

"Opération Sentinelle" is the first new large-scale military operation within France. The army is now protecting synagogues, art galleries, schools, newspapers, public offices and underground stations. Of all French soldiers currently engaged in military operations, half of them are deployed inside France. And half of those are assigned to protect 717 Jewish schools. Meanwhile, French paralysis before ISIS is immortalized by the image of police running away from the office of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo during the massacre there.

You can find the same figure in Italy: 11,000 Italian soldiers are currently engaged in military operations and more than half of them are used in operation "Safe Streets," which, as its name reveals, keeps Italy's cities safe. Italy's army is also busy providing aid to migrants crossing the Mediterranean.

In 2003, Italy was one of the very few countries, along with Spain and Britain, which stood with the United States in its noble war in Iraq -- a war that was successful until the infamous US pull-out on December 18, 2011.

Today, Italy, like Spain, runs away from its responsibility in the war against the Islamic State. Italy's Defense Minister Roberta Pinotti ruled out the idea of Italy taking part in action against ISIS, after EU defense ministers unanimously backed a French request for help.

Italy's soldiers, stationed in front of my newspaper's office in Rome, provide a semblance of security, but the fact that half of Italy's soldiers are engaged in domestic security, and not in offensive military strikes, should give us pause. These numbers shed a light not only on Europe's internal terror frontlines, from the French banlieues to "Londonistan." These numbers also shed light on the great Western retreat.

US President Barack Obama has boasted that as part of his legacy, he has withdrawn American military forces from the Middle East. His shameful departure from Iraq has been the main reason that the Islamic State rose to power -- and the reason Obama postponed a military withdrawal from Afghanistan. This US retreat can only be compared to the fall of Saigon, with the picture of a helicopter evacuating the U.S. embassy.

In Europe, armies are no longer even ready for war. The German army is now useless, and Germany spends only 1.2% of GDP on defense. The German army today has the lowest number of staff at any time in its history.

In 2012, Germany's highest court, breaking a 67-year-old taboo against using the military within Germany's borders, allowed the military to be deployed in domestic operations. The post-Hitler nation's fear that the army could develop again into a state-within-a-state that might impede democracy has paralyzed Europe's largest and wealthiest country. Last January, it was revealed that German air force reconnaissance jets cannot even fly at night.

Many European states slumber in the same condition as Belgium, with its failed security apparatus. A senior U.S. intelligence officer even recently likened the Belgian security forces to "children." And Sweden's commander-in-chief, Sverker Göranson, said his country could only fend off an invasion for a maximum of one week.

During the past ten years, the United Kingdom has also increasingly been seen by its allies -- both in the US and in Europe -- as a power in retreat, focusing only on its domestic agenda. The British have become increasingly insular - a littler England.

The UK's armed forces have been downsized; the army alone is expected to shrink from 102,000 soldiers in 2010 to 82,000 by 2020 - its smallest size since the Napoleonic wars. The former head of the Royal Navy, Admiral Nigel Essenigh, has spoken of "uncomfortable similarities" between the UK's defenses now and those in the early 1930s, during the rise of Nazi Germany.





Brussels last Sunday, May 1, 2016, not far from the Brouckère Square. We ... had wanted to visit the Royal Greenhouses at Laeken, but at the entrance they turned us down because it was 3.10pm already and there were too many people waiting there to get in. Normally that in itself is not a problem, only this year, the guard at the entrance said, the rate at which they could let people through was much slower because everybody had to be checked - courtesy the muslim terrorist threat. So we, quite upset, to the city centre, to fetch us some good books in the Waterstones Brussels. A short distance before the Waterstones, we noticed two troopers patrolling the street (notice the "W" sign right between the troopers, a little higher than their heads). I am a very pro-army guy, but this just isn't normal. It only goes to show that the more muslims you let enter your country, the more you are apt to see scenes like this - because you also import the pathologies invariably inherent in muslim societies.




In Canada, military bases are now being used to host migrants from Middle East. Justin Trudeau, the new Canadian prime minister, first halted military strikes against ISIS, then refused to join the coalition against it. Terrorism has apparently never been a priority for Trudeau -- not like "gender equality," global warming, euthanasia and injustices committed against Canada's natives.

The bigger question is: Why does anyone choose to fight in a war? Civilized nations go to war so that members of today's generation may sacrifice themselves to protect future generations. But if there are no future generations, there is no reason whatever for today's young men to die in war. It is "demography, stupid."

Spain's fertility has fallen the most -- the lowest in Western Europe over twenty years and the most extreme demographic spiral observed anywhere. Similarly, fewer babies were born in Italy in 2015 than in any year since the state was founded 154 years ago. For the first time in three decades, Italy's population shrank. Germany, likewise, is experiencing a demographic suicide.

This massive deployment of armed forces in our own cities is a departure from history. It is a moral disarmament, before a military one. It is Europe's new Weimar moment, from the name of the first German Republic that was dramatically dismantled by the rise of Nazism. The Weimar Republic still represents a cultural muddle, a masterpiece of unarmed democracy devoted to a mutilated pacifism, a mixture of naïve cultural, political reformism and the first highly developed welfare state.

According to the historian Walter Laqueur, Weimar was the first case of the "life and death of a permissive society." Will Europe's new Weimar also be brought down, this time by Islamists?"

MINDBLOWING INSANITY IN FLANDERS, BELGIUM: TOP HONCHO OF CATHOLIC EDUCATION LIEVEN BOEVE WANTS TO OFFER ISLAMIC COURSES AND PRAYER ROOMS, ALLOW HEADSCARVES IN CATHOLIC SCHOOLS.

Last week, I had a small post lamenting the islamic intrusions in French Catholic schools.

I am used to quite some lunacy over here in Europe, but I admit I was more than a little taken aback this morning when I read that in Flanders, Belgium's Dutch-speaking north, things are actually set to become far worse. These are no 'intrusions'. These are invitations.

Via Het Laatste Nieuws Online:




Read this and cry:

"The Catholic Education works on a school model wherein other religions and philosophies will get a much larger role. This means that muslims and people of other faiths, on schools where they constitute a large number, will get their own places [of worship].

There will be more tolerance for religious symbols like the headscarf, possibly special rooms to pray near the catholic chapel, and islamic lessons or trips as a voluntary out of school activity.

"It's an ambitious project, but studies show that our identity is completely watering down if we do nothing. We offer our schools a mirror to set the next step", says top honcho for Flemish Catholic Schools Lieven Boeve.

Guimard Street [so called because it's the turf of the main leading institutions and organizations of catholic education in Flanders - MFBB] wants to use the model of the "dialogue" school to attract more muslim students, but also to reinforce catholic identity. "It is no longer the intention to persuade muslims or people of other faiths to our own great truths", posits co-founder of the Dialogue Schools Didier Pollefeyt (Catholic University of Leuven). "We want to make muslims, people of other faiths and ourself feel stronger. We are not going to mix religions, but in a Dialogue School there will be, apart from a Christian chapel, also a space for muslims to pray, there will be place for the headscarf".

My oh my what gobbledegook. This is by far the most lunatic mission I have seen catholic schools embark upon in my life.

Some debunking is in order, although I feel I a bulldozer would be preferable over a keyboard:


a.) "This means that muslims and people of other faiths, on schools where they constitute a large number, will get their own places [of worship]"

This is a ridiculous spin to make it look like it's not especially aimed at accommodating muslims. In the Belgian school network, there are basically only two religions present "in large numbers". Christianity and islam. Christianity is declining sharply. Islam is on the ascendance. In Antwerp, 52 per cent of students in basic and high school are no longer autochton. The truly overwhelming majority of these 52 per cent are... muslim. There may be a scattering of Hindu students in some schools (also in Brussels) or the token Buddhist, but that's about it. And Jews as a whole number a paltry 20,000 on a Belgian population of 11 million. Ergo, those who issue this communique should have the honesty to call this initiative what it is: yet another kneefall for islam.


b.) "There will be more tolerance for religious symbols like the headscarf, possibly special rooms to pray near the catholic chapel, and islamic lessons or trips as a voluntary out of school activity."

The result will merely be an acceleration of segregation, and even more psychological pressure on the dwindling number of female muslims students who do not don the hijab yet to follow the example of the zealots.


c.) "It's an ambitious project, but studies show that our identity is completely watering down if we do nothing."

Who's responsible for these "studies"? The Centre for Equal Opportunities and Combating Racism [CGKR, now rebaptized Unia - MFBB]? OF COURSE the identity of Catholic Schools is watering down, if you do not even believe what you stand for. If teachers are ASHAMED to cast a cross before class. If Christian religion teachers admit they do not consider themselves Christian anymore. This is basically the equivalent of a guy floating in a life jacket in the middle of the ocean who, upon discovering his jacket is leaking, decides that the best strategy to counter the problem is to merrily punch another hole in it!


c.) "Guimard Street wants to use the model of the "dialogue" school to attract more muslim students, but also to reinforce catholic identity."

Muslim students are coming anyway, what with the truly catastrophic fertility rate among autochtons. As for the "Dialogue School" reinforcing Catholic Identity, I just wonder, is the author of that concept perhaps the guy from the local funny farm who walks around with a paper hat and his right hand tucked in his vest, proclaiming he is Napoleon? Because this laughable excuse of an "idea" boils down to Catholic Schools reinforcing their identity... by expressing LESS of their identity!!! This is like preparing yourself for a math exam by studying sociology. Or announcing you are going to increase the appeal of your golf school by offering courses in knitting.


d.) "We are not going to mix religions, but in a Dialogue School there will be, apart from a Christian chapel, also a space for muslims to pray, there will be place for the headscarf"."

Given the very obvious tolerance of muslims for other faiths, it can be safely assumed that fifteen years from now, that "catholic chapel" next to the islamic prayer room will be used as a place to stock automatic weapons and explosives, and the Catholic School itself will have become a madrassah.



We have met the mastermind of this insane plan, Lieven Boeve, before. In March 2014, I had a post dealing with the decision - just as idiotic - of the Catholic University of Louvain to offer a chair "Islamic Theology". You can find that post here.




Lieven Boeve is the guy - although it would be far more correct to refer to him as eunuch - to the left.

Back then, I labeled him a quisling already.

Turns out, I could not have been more right.

An eye-opening video via French site Riposte laïque: "les mosquées envahissent la France!" [Mosques are invading France - MFBB]:

You don't have to be proficient in French to get the message:




As I may or may not have mentioned before, the extraordinary growth of the number of mosques in France is a dynamic in no small part sustained by a caste of traitorous mayors, from both left and what passes for "right" (but especially from the left). It is such an outspoken phenomenon that a book has been written about it: "Ces maires qui courtisent l'Islamisme", by Joachim Véliocas:




And while French mayors are tripping over their feet to help muslims in France erect mosques à volonté...




... a church donated by the French to the Christians of Iraq in 1860 had its clock tower blown up by IS:

"Some news, which passed almost completely unnoticed this Tuesday, 26 April: Islamic State has blown up the clock tower of a church in Mosul which was offered to the Christians of the Middle East by Queen Eugénie, the wife of Napoleon III, in 1860. Information of this kind does not seem to have stirred the media, the political world and the intellectuals, having become indifferent, as the massacres, destruction, and atrocities committed and/or wrought by ISIS for over two years have by now become routine..."

THE CREEPING ISLAMIZATION OF CATHOLIC SCHOOLS IN FRANCE.

An article by Tiberge over at Galliawatch, April 12, 2016:

"...A few days ago I posted an article by Guy Rouvrais on the Islamization of certain French Catholic schools where the teaching of the Koran has eclipsed catechism instruction. Novopress has published this follow-up by the same author on the French government's concern over problems in Muslim schools. Apparently the situation in these schools has become noticeable even to a Socialist government usually indulgent with immigrant students:

The Ministry of National Education, alerted by the mayors, has recently become alarmed by the expansion of Muslim schools, some under contract with the State, but more often not.

Note: Under contract means government subsidies and a requirement to follow government educational policy, even if the Koran is taught. A school not under contract would be free to teach primarily an Islamic-based curriculum. The same is true for Catholic schools.

Most of these establishments are under salafist influence. How can anyone be surprised since the prime minister has admitted that salafism "is winning the ideological and cultural battle". Moreover, aren't the schools the privileged place to wage this assault on children from an early age? It isn't the so-called "moderate" Muslims who choose those schools, but the partisans of a strict Islam, affiliated with the UOIF, the French branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. The others settle for public schools or… Catholic schools. It is no longer rare, in certain suburbs, to find Catholic schools where half the pupils, even 80% of the pupils in some cases, are Muslim. The French bishops finally expressed concern about this at their recent meeting in Lourdes.

While the government had for years neglected to examine this phenomenon, it decided, after the November 13 attacks, to send into the Islamic schools a battalion of education inspectors. These civil servants, until then, were not Arabic-speaking. They've just begun to realize that. It was about time! But even without understanding Arabic, the inspectors observed "pedagogical insufficiencies", according to the ministry. The essential thing was to live Islam rather than learn the French literature of the infidels. A former teacher at the Averroès high school in Lille, under contract, explained: "On the pretext of a republican educational program, one plays a double game and spreads, surreptitiously, a concept of Islam that derives from the Muslim Brotherhood."


....


In France, fifty Muslim schools serving five thousand pupils are currently functioning. Often they are small schools with only one or two classes and about fifteen pupils.

If they were, at the outset, financed to a great extent by foreign countries, this has changed over time. The hold of the Muslim Brotherhood, via the French-based UOIF, on Muslim education, is real. (…)

Not many schools and not many pupils. But there are millions of Muslims in France. Many of the children attend public schools, which is one reason why the public schools have deteriorated. But in addition to that there are the 2500 mosques that provide some education, though it's mostly in the form of indoctrination.

For me, the worst thing is not Muslim schools, but the infiltration of Muslims into Catholic schools. That is still a potential threat to the already struggling Catholic community of France..."

MUSLIM ETIQUETTE COMES TO EUROPE: BOMB ATTACK ON SIKH TEMPLE IN ESSEN, GERMANY.

Via PI-News:

"On Saturday evening a bomb attack on a Sikh temple in Essen took place. The night before Thursday police took into custody two suspects, who partly confessed to the act. They are two 16-year olds with clear sympathies vis-à-vis the terror scene, as Essen's police chief Frank Richter said at a press conference. The two teenage jihadists were no unknowns to police. The attack resulted in three wounded and significant damage to the building the temple was in.

The 70-strong Special Police Committee is counting on more arrests. Essen's burgomaster Thomas Kufen wonders naively, "how those two got on the wrong track?" One of the perpetrators, Yusuf T., would on his Facebook page have shown sympathy for Berlin ex-rapper and IS-fighter Denis Cuspert ("Deso Dogg"). Moreover, he would have had strong ties to the Salafist undertaking "Lies!". And there is Thomas Kufen, asking himself how such a thing could happen? We ask ourselves how someone so badly informed can be a burgomaster."

So Yusuf T. was the mastermind.

The other scumbag's name is Mohammed B.

Yusuf and Mohammed.

Not Hans and Fritz.

A fact that seems to be totally lost on Essen's idiotic mayor Thomas Kufen.

And our fatherlandish media? HLN reports that "there are no indications that terrorism is involved and that three men were arrested." As for De Standaard, it is more than happy that a fool could be found who they could quote with the following reassuring message: "There are no indications that this would be a terrorist or racist attack."

Phew! For a moment there, I feared there might somehow be an 'islam' connection!

BELGIAN INTERIOR MINISTER JAN JAMBON: "PART OF THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY WAS DANCING AFTER THE ATTACKS. THAT IS THE REAL PROBLEM".

Via HLN Online, 16 april 2016:

"But by integrating the police zones in Brussels [19 - MFBB], we will not immediately avoid a terrorist attack", says Jambon. The REAL problem, he says, is the failed immigration policy. "For years we have not acknowledged the warning signs suggesting that our policy led to misery, that in certain neighborhoods things went totally wrong. As a result the danger materialized far too serious. Therefore the necessary measures we are taking now, won't have an effect right away".

A significant part of the muslim community was dancing after the attacks. That is the real problem. That third of fourth generation migrants are openly turning against our society and is prepared to use violence or condoning it, has to do with our policy."

The Talking Steak known as Jan Jambon and currently sitting on the stool of Interior Minister has it partly wrong, as per usual. What's right is the simple acknowledgement that yes, "part" of the Belgian muslim community was cheering the attacks on Zaventem International Airport and in the Brussels Underground.

What he's got totally wrong, as could be expected, is... that he's blaming ourselves again. "OUR" policy has failed.

We "did not acknowledge the warning signs that our policy led to misery"!!!!

Aha, the famous "if only there had been jobs", you know. Opportunities. It's all our fault, because we did not give them grieving youths plush jobs, perspectives, a future, blah blah blah blah BLAH!!!

It doesn't seem to cross his mind that Salah Abdeslam and Co. had been given jobs and opportunities galore. Salah e.g., whose numerous family lived in subsidized social housing following the burning down of their original house by Salam's brother (who blew himself up in Paris), "worked" between 2009 and 2011 in the Brussels Transportation Company MIVB/STIB.

He was fired in 2011 because... he was too often absent.

Now mind you, the MIVB/STIB is a state-owned company. To be fired in a state-owned company in Belgium practically means you've got to have taken a royal crap on the CEO's desk.

Salam's brother Mohammed works, or worked, in Molenbeek's city offices....

.... at the Population Services, where he was tasked with...

... charting demographics. I kid you not.

Mohammed was fired last week too.

The reason?

Since November of last year, he did not show up anymore for his "work".

He reported sick every week, WITH the correct paperwork from doctors.

He could not function "because of all the stress and the attention".

Which means that he's been living on taxpayers' expenses since November.

I know for a fact that the Audi plant in Vorst, near which the shooting took place a couple of days before the attacks, is choke full of Moroccans... because Brussels is subsidizing the Audi plant on the condition that it hires Moroccans! Quotas of Moroccans HAVE to be observed! Talk about not providing opportunities!

There's a significant Polish community in Belgium, I would wager that in construction they constitute at least one fourth of workers. Were they to go suddenly AWOL, Belgium sits on its ass.

Poles have NEVER asked for opportunities. They just work their asses off and keep silent.

Same goes for other hardworking minorities: Armenians, some Thai, Chinese... I've never known these people to ask something from the State. As a matter of fact, I'm fairly well acquainted with the small Armenian community in my hometown. They work, pay taxes and abide the law.

NO GOVERNMENT POLICY IS NEEDED TO ADDRESS THEIR SITUATION.



Meanwhile, our bien pensant moral betters, of whom Jan Jambon is a prime example, have determined the composition of a Commission of Enquiry charged with investigating the terrorist attacks in Zaventem and Brussels.

Guess which party was expressly excluded from providing commission members?

Why, Vlaams Belang of course! From the VB website:

"One has deliberately chose to allow only parties with a responsibility in the massacres, with blood on their hands", states Barbara Pas, MP for Vlaams Belang, after learning of the political exclusion of the VB from the commission of Enquiry which must now investigate the terror attacks of March 22.

With a red scarf tied before their mouths Vlaams Belang MP's symbolically protested against the political omerta imposed upon us by the other parties. Last week it was decided that Vlaams Belang would not be a part of the terror commission. It is not difficult to find out the reason why: to stifle every voice critical of immigration, asylum and islam. Under the motto "You do not see what you see and you do not hear what you hear", this commission has, even before it has begun, lost all credibility. "Where political correctness rules, the lie triumphs", reacted Barbara Pas.

The Chinese philosopher, general and military strategist Sun Tzu, who lived in the sixth century Before Christ, wrote in his masterpiece "The Art of War": “If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Unfortunately, thanks to decades of liberal and socialist education schemes, Europeans do not know themselves anymore. They have forgotten - indeed, most have even never known - that the West was the birthplace of things as diverse as democracy or the Apollo spacecraft. We have been taught not only not to know ourselves, but even to loathe ourselves.

To compound this dire situation, our elites have simultaneously embarked on frantic programs to deliberately not know our enemy. Which is why, every time a bomb goes off, limbs fly around, and lives are tragically cut short... our moral betters rush to the cameras and the microphones to assure us that this latest atrocity has nothing to do with islam.

And so nothing will change. And it's forward to the next terrorist attack and the next capitulation vis-à-vis islamic imperialism. I foresee that in ten years, the first politicians will start to convert to islam. It's a given that they will be socialist and green politicians.

Meanwhile, like lunatics who think you can effectively extinguish a raging fire if only you pour enough fuel on it, our insane politicians not only fail to identify ISLAM as our enemy, they are effectively even supporting and enhancing it. Last November, Flemish Interior Minister and Minister responsible for Integration and Social Economy (whatever that is) Liesbeth Homans (a bitch of a wife) catastrophically decided to subsidize 50 more mosques:




If Sun Tzu were alive today, he would amend his famous quote and it would sound something like this:

"If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, and you even subsidize him, you will succumb without battle."

BELGIUM: MR. GAY FLANDERS 2015 ATTACKED, BEATEN IN ANTWERP BY "YOUTHS".

In 2015, 21-year old hairdresser Skelte Willems was crowned Mr Gay Flanders...




... an event our progressive "elites" deemed so important that even our Prime Minister, Charles Michel, attended. See photo. To rule out all doubts, the prime minister is the bald, bespectacled guy. Mr Gay Flanders Skelte Willems is the dude with the haircliff. Anyway, Progress!!!


Now fast forward to 2016. Progress indeed. Via Het Laatste Nieuws Online:

"Skelte Willems (21), who last year was crowned Mr Gay Flanders, was attacked over the previous weekend by four youths in Antwerp, the young man himself recounted on Facebook. Around 2:30am on Saturday night, Willems was heading home after his (side)job in a restaurant when the group of youths started harassing him. "They called me names I did not understand and there was some pushing and pulling", says the 20-year old in Het Nieuwsblad. The attackers threw a glass bottle to the young man, which luckily for him missed him and fell to the ground. The man from Aarschot did receive a heavy flow from a blunt object to the head. Two boys intervened after Willems started calling for help, whereupon the attackers fled. "I don't want to think what would have happened if those two boys had not come to the rescue", says the twenty-one year old on Facebook.

According to Willems this was no case of gay bashing. "I did not wear clothes hinting at the fact that I'm gay. Besides, I never had problems with that", says the young man. "It's a pity to have to be treated this way in the city where I definitely wanted to live", he concluded. The incident left Willems with a head wound. He reported it to the police."

Some remarks.

a.) When I read that Willems had been attacked in Antwerp, I knew right away that the "youths" in question were muslims. More than half of Antwerp's youths are already of foreign origin, the overwhelming majority of them either Moroccan or Turkish. Besides, there's the fact that HLN limits itself to describing the youths as, ah, "youths". Had they been autochton, we would definitely have gotten an identification. We didn't, ergo. Last but not least, Willems "did not understand the names they were calling him". Now, it's just possible that these four attackers were run of the mill Westvloamingen from Bachten de Kupe. One can sympathize. But maybe, just maybe, it could also be because Willems doesn't know what 'faggot' means in Anatolian parlance or 'Knight of the Brown Avenue' in Marrakesh. Take your pri, uh, pick.

b.) The cognitive dissonance of our sympathetic Mr Gay Flanders is as breathtaking as it is predictable. No no no, he wasn't beaten because he acted gay or wore gay clothing. He was just... beaten, you know. Just like that. It's only normal. Happens all the time. Helpfully he adds: "Besides, I never had problems with that." No of course not, smartass. I bet you wear gay clothes in the appropriate environment, where you won't meet said "youths". I bet that subconciously you know all too well why not to wear them near the local mosque.

c.) This is the year 2016. We are fast becoming a minority in our own country. Antwerp's authochton youths already are, in their age group. As our politicians (the PM up front, as we have seen), the media, the educational and cultural estabishment et al are touting the many virtues of the gay lifestyle - and with every passing year with more fervour - our fertility rates are hitting rock bottom. The official number for Flanders is 1.3 or so but I would wager that among autochtons it's closer to 1 child per couple, since in the number 1.3... the fertility factor of the 17 or so per cent "Flemings" of foreign origin is included.

SWITZERLAND: EDUCATION AUTHORITIES RULE THAT MUSLIM STUDENTS NO LONGER HAVE TO SHAKE HANDS WITH FEMALE TEACHERS.

Via The Daily Mail, April 4, 2016:

"Outcry as Muslim students are exempted from Swiss tradition of shaking female teachers' hands at school after 'refusing to adopt their way of life'

- Muslim students will no longer need to shake their female teachers' hands
- Male students complained the custom is counter to their religious beliefs
- The decision provoked outrage in the tiny Swiss municipality of Therwil

Muslim students in Switzerland will no longer need to shake hands with their female teachers, in a ruling that has caused an uproar and consternation in the country.
Education authorities in the northern Swiss municipality of Therwil, in the canton of Basel-Country, reached the controversial decision after two male students complained about the Swiss custom.

They claimed shaking hands with the teacher is counter to their religious beliefs if the teacher is a woman.

They argued that Islam does not permit physical contact with a person of the opposite sex, with the exception of certain immediate family members.
The decision triggered an outcry across Switzerland with Felix Mueri, who heads the parliamentary commission on science, education and culture, insisting that 'shaking hands is part of our culture'.

'This is a gesture of respect and good manners,' he told the 20Minuten news site.

Christoph Eymann, who heads the Swiss Conference of Cantonal Ministers of Education, meanwhile said that 'such exceptions to the rules are not the solution'.

'We cannot tolerate that women in the public service are treated differently from men,' he told Swiss television.
Christine Akeret, in charge of the Therwil school system, told media she was not satisfied with the decision, but had not seen any other option.

'It is difficult when someone refuses to adopt our way of life,' she said, complaining that she had not received any support from the surrounding canton when she had raised the problem with the authorities there.

Basel-Country canton authorities, who have the power to overturn the Therwil decision, did not immediately respond to requests for comment."

RECOMMENDED READS: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS TIMES "10,000 FRENCH MILLIONAIRES LEAVE COUNTRY IN 2015 BECAUSE OF MUSLIM TENSIONS."

Via the International Business Times, March 31, 2016:

"Rising tensions in France, especially in Paris following a series of Islamist terrorist attacks in 2015, have spurred an exodus of its super-wealthy citizens, a new report on migration trends of millionaires and high-net worth individuals across the world reveals. The report warns that other European countries, including the UK, Belgium, Germany and Sweden "where religious tensions are starting to emerge", will also see similar trends.

Regarding a Brexit, the report suggests millionaires would want to stay in Britain even if it leaves the single currency bloc.

The report was compiled by New World Wealth, an agency that gives information on the global wealth sector. The report was based on data collected from investor visa programme statistics of each country; annual interviews with around 800 global high net worth individuals and with intermediaries like migration experts, second citizenship platforms, wealth managers and property agents; data from property registers and property sales statistics in each country; and by tracking millionaire movements in the media.

Millionaire outflow

According to the report, Millionaire migration in 2015, France topped the list of countries with maximum millionaire outflows as it lost 10,000 millionaires, or 3% of its millionaire population. Among the cities that saw maximum millionaire outflow, Paris, was at the top – losing about 6% of its millionaire population or 7,000 millionaires in 2015 to the UK, the US, Canada, Australia and Israel.

"The large outflow of millionaires from France is notable – France is being heavily impacted by rising religious tensions between Christians and Muslims, especially in urban areas. We expect that millionaire migration away from France will accelerate over the next decade as these tensions escalate," the report warns.

After France, the list of countries ranked by millionaire outflows includes China ranked second, followed by Italy, India, Greece, the Russian Federation, Spain and Brazil in descending order.

Millionaire inflow

Millionaires' 8 favourite places: Australia is top destination for the super-wealthy

As for inflows, Australia was the favourite destination with maximum inflows in 2015 – a total of 8,000 new millionaires. The US was ranked second with 7,000 inflows, followed by Canada, Israel, the UAE and New Zealand.

Australian cities Sydney, Melbourne and Perth saw a significant millionaire inflow in 2015 from China, Europe, the UK, the US and South Africa, with Sydney topping the chart with 4,000 new millionaires or 4% added to its existing millionaire population, according to the report. Melbourne and Perth had 3,000 and 1,000 new millionaires in 2015, respectively. Tel Aviv, Dubai, San Francisco, Vancouver and Seattle also featured among the top eight cities with millionaire inflows."

"In early March jihadis murdered 16 Christians, among them four nuns, in a home for the elderly in Aden, Yemen. A catholic priest, Father Thomas Uzhunnalil (56, see photo), was taken as a hostage. Father Uzhunnalil was praying in the home's chapel as the fanatics stormed the building. Since then, negotiations to free the priest were undertaken. But during Easter Mass in Vienna's Stephansdom, Cardinal Christoph Schoenboern told the churchgoers that the islamic barbarians crucified Father Uzhunnalil on Good Friday.

HAPPY EASTER 2016.

Today, Easter Sunday, those of us who are Christian celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, who died at the cross for our sins on Good Friday.

DowneastBlog wishes all its readers of good will a Happy Easter:




Special prayers are asked for all those suffering physically and mentally from the horrible assaults on humanity so omnipresent today in this troubled world, but especially for...



* the people killed and wounded during the callous islamic terror attacks on Zaventem International Airport earlier this week. As I'm typing this... there's without a doubt people wide awake out there, not even very far away, either hurting like hell and completely emotionally overwhelmed by the loss of limbs or disfigurement. There's people out there who lost loved ones, fathers, mothers, children, and whose minds are screaming right now with agony and sheer and utter desperation.

* the Iraqi soccer-playing boys whose lives were either brutally cut short, or who were wounded and/or maimed for life when on Friday an islamic state suicide bomber detonated his charge just as the trophies were about to be handed out. 26 were killed and 71 wounded in Iskandariya, a town just south of Baghdad.

* Mr Asad Shah, a shopkeeper in Glasgow, Scotland, by all accounts a very decent and friendly man who operated a shop on Minard Road. On Thursday, he wished his followers/customers on Facebook a Happy Easter. He was murdered four hours later by two muslim savages, one of them stabbing Mr Shah, the other one stomping on his head. Mr Shah was an Ahmadiyya muslim, a member of a small sect founded in the late nineteenth century by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad. Ahmadiyya muslims, who worldwide number only about 10 million or so, are an extremely rare non-violent muslim branch who reject jihad. Generally, muslims regard Ahmadiyyans as heretics.



I... think that one look into the calm brown eyes of Mr Shah suffices to conclude that this man was a very kind and gentle soul:




I think that it is appropriate that I post here again Mr Shah's Happy Easter wishes. May they inspire.





Prayers.

Our Father who art in Heaven,
Hallowed be thy name;
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us;
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.

Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Good night.

SCHAARBEEK, BRUSSELS: POLICE SHOOT, ARREST TERROR SUSPECT.

Yesterday special police units tried to arrest a suspect waiting at a tram station in the borough of Schaarbeek, northern Brussels. The suspect immediately grabbed a woman and a child to use as a human shield. [UPDATE: they might have been his wife and daughter]. Still, police were able to neutralize him with a shot in the leg, whereupon both hostages could apparently wrestle themselves free. A unmanned DOVO (the Belgian Army's Ordnance Disposal service) vehicle checked the man's rucksack and blew it up, but it's not clear whether it indeed contained explosives.





A screenshot from The National dealing with the event:



The world has suddenly discovered Molenbeek, but Schaarbeek is another Parti Socialiste bulwark, and as a result also a hotbed for radicalism.




New info has emerged about Saleh Abdeslam's capture in Molenbeek last week. It's quite shocking:


"ABDESLAM ARRESTED AFTER QUIET STROLL THROUGH MOLENBEEK."

"When Salah Abdeslam was arrested Friday afternoon in Sint-Jans-Molenbeek, he just got home from a stroll. He was shot in the knee and wrestled to the ground in the house's entrance hall, together with companion Amine Choukri...

...

... after the house searches in a dwelling in Vorst, where he could escape because a companion opened fire on the police, Abdeslam did not care much to hide anymore. He called his friend Abid Aberkan who gave him shelter in his mother's house in Molenbeek's Vierwindenstraat...

... Police became convinced that he was hiding there, when suddenly a great quantity of pizzas were delivered. Not by the pizzaman himself, but by a neighbor who had ordered them.

... he had just been walking trough the neighborhood, with his hoodie up, but his face bare and only sporting a ringbeard, and was perfectly recognizable from the police photographs..."

But of course, the whole neighborhood is to-tal-ly innocent. Abdeslam's friend had spent the past decade on Antarctica, where he had unsuccessfuly been trying to set up a business as a marital counselor for pinguins, and he really didn't know how his buddy had fared in the meantime. The friend's mother lives in a parallel universe where all the jews are dead and all the infidels are dogs and, there being no need anymore for heroes of Saleh's calibre, she therefore did not recognize him. As for the neighbor who ordered the pizzas, he believed that they were for Snow White and the Seven Smurfs. Also, islam is a Religion of Peace. Take it from moi, I read it in the Fabeltjeskrant:

Unlike the 13th, the 23rd Kama never attained full divisional strength. It's combat performance was even poorer, and after large parts mutinied in October 1944, it was disbanded.

Like islamic "warriors" the world over and throughout history, the men of the 13th and 23rd were very brave and efficient when engaging unarmed civilians, especially women and children. Against well-armed and determined adversaries like e.g. the Red Army, not so much.

A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE... IN 2007, BRUSSELS MAYOR FREDDY THIELEMANS STATED "THAT IT WAS NOT SO MUCH VIOLENCE FROM ISLAMIC IMMIGRANTS THAT HE FEARED, BUT RATHER FROM RIGHTWING EXTREMISTS."

By now, the identity of the kamikaze jihadists wreaking havoc on Zaventem International Airport and in the Brussels underground is known. Interesting to note is that, like in Paris, there were two brothers among them: Ibrahim and Khalid El Bakraoui.

On the photo below, Ibrahim is the one in the middle. His brother Khalid blew himself up in the Maalbeek metro station.




But now for some interesting background, and I'm just quoting Dutch daily De Volkskrant, because in only two paragraphs it contains some key info AND at the same time posits an interesting question:

"In January 2010 Ibrahim was involved in a robbery of an exchange office in Brussels. When chased by police he opened fire on them with a Kalashnikov [one officer got shot in the leg - MFBB]. The affair got a lot of coverage in the Belgian press because then mayor of Brussels Freddy Thielemans called the shooting a 'fait divers', for which he was criticized roundly.

The oldest of the El Bakraoui brothers was sentenced to 9 years prison for the robbery. His brother Khalid got five years in 2011 for a series of carjackings. Why the brothers were set free despite their long-term (sic) convictions is not clear."

I will tell you why they were set free. They were released from jail on the basis of the notorious Lejeune Law, which stipulates that "if a convict shows exemplary behaviour in jail, he may be released after one third of the original sentence."

Which is exactly what happened. Of Khalid's date of release I know nothing, but Ibrahim, apparently having behaved exemplary, left jail in 2014. With deadly results.


But let us go back to Mayor Thielemans, of the Parti Socialiste, he who called Ibrahim El Bakraoui robbing an exchange office and wounding a police officer with an AK47 a 'fait divers'!

Among longtime readers, the name Freddy Thielemans may ring a bell. He was a former Mayor of Brussels and prominent member of the PS, "the party of 1,000,000 scandals".

Like all socialists, Mr Thielemans is deeply in love with the followers of the Religion of Peace aka "islam", but not so much with people somewhat to the right of Stalin, e.g. Vlaams Belang members. In 2007, smack in the middle of Thielemans' tenure as Mayor, the VB wanted to commemmorate 9/11 AND warn against the dangers of islamic terrorism in a demo in the center of Brussels.

Here are some exerpts from my 2007 blogpost on the event:

"... On September 11, 2007, the SIOE organization [Stop The Islamization of Europe - MFBB] intended to organize a demo in Brussels, in front of the European Parliament, to protest against what they call the "invasion of muslim customs". In particular, SIOE protests against the encroaching influence of islamic sharia law on relations within Europes muslim communities - and, by extension, to the relations of muslims with indigenous Europeans. Societal trends and separate cases give indeed ample reason for concern, and to name but a few we cite the results of a 2006 UK poll, which revealed that 40% of British muslims wanted sharia law to be introduced in parts of the country; the purposeful "soft" expulsion and discreet intimidation of indigenous shop owners by their moroccan counterparts in Borgerhout, Antwerp; the steeply rising number of honor revenge cases, e.g. in Rotterdam; the molestation of gays and muslim apostates in Amsterdam, the continentwide building of highly visible mosques, funded with money from the Gulf region and under the auspices of Milli Gorus, the Muslim Brotherhood etc etc etc...

...

And so it was that three apolitical European organizations, concerned about the growing influence of Islam, decided to bundle their forces and hold a peaceful demonstration against the Islamization of Europe in Brussels. The event was scheduled for the 11th of September, the West's most symbolic date in its conflict with political islam, and indeed SIOE planned to hold a 1-minute silence to commemmorate the victims of 9/11. SIOE groups the UK's No Sharia Here, led by Stephen Gash, the Danish SIAD (Stop Islamiseringen af Danmark) from Anders Gravers, and last but not least the German Pax Europa, under the chairmanship of Dr. Udo Ulfkotte.

...

Well then, as late as Tuesday 7 August, SIOE's Ulfkotte and co-organizers had a meeting with some fifteen Brussels police officials and according to Ulfkotte "there were no problems whatsoever". Two days later, on 9 August, the demonstration had been forbidden by Brussels' Mayor, Freddy Thielemans. According to press reports, he did so after conferring with police and "other services", and he "feared that there would be incidents between demonstrators and immigrants who live in the neighborhood." His spokesman Nicolas Dassonville added:

"The danger for public order is too great. There is an important immigrant community nearby which might react. Moreover, the organization uses islamophobic language."

As if to provoke, Thielemans and Dassonville hastened to declare that every year, they receive between five and six hundred requests for demonstrations, and that over the past five years they only forbade five or six. So there you have it. An apolitical organization asks for permission to stage a demonstration to highlight a very obvious and worrisome development, and is denied the right to protest. By contrast, last year muslim organizations staged a demonstration in Brussels against the headscarf ban, WITHOUT EVEN HAVING ASKED PERMISSION, and... were given a free hand. The news of Thielemans' capitulation to islamic radicals, since that is what it is, caused quite some uproar in the Belgium. In response to this, Thielemans declared "that it was not so much violence from islamic immigrants he feared, but rather from rightwing extremists"."

Here's a video of the events on 9/11 2007:




And here are some notorious stills from what was basically a shameful episode for, and a stain on, the Brussels PD. Actually, not only the Brussels Police Department however, because, just to make sure he would get the upper hand against those "rightwing extremists", Freddy Thielemans had also enlisted the services of the Liège PD, Liège being some 100 kilometers to the east of Brussels. If you'd ask yourselves how that's possible, it may help to know that Liège is a veritable Parti Socialiste bulwark, surpassed possibly only by Charleroi, the "Chicago on the Sambre":



Filip Dewinter, thrown to the ground for commemmorating 9/11 without a permit from His Socialist Majesty F. Thielemans...



Thielemans' buddies among the muslim populace, who protested against the headscarf ban somewhat earlier, and who had no permit either, were by contrast handled with kid gloves and could hold their demo...



Frank Van Hecke, the then Chairman of Vlaams Belang, getting the same treatment...


The money quote is, of course, Thielemans' immortal wisdom "THAT IT WAS NOT SO MUCH VIOLENCE FROM ISLAMIC IMMIGRANTS THAT HE FEARED, BUT RATHER FROM RIGHTWING EXTREMISTS."

On Tuesday morning, March 22, 2016, the ghastly consequences of that insane worldview were plain to see for everyone.

BELGIUM F-16'S TO RESUME ANTI-ISIS OPERATIONS FROM JULY 1ST ONWARDS, "PROBABLY" ALSO OVER SYRIA.

From July 1, 2016 on, the Belgian Air Force will resume bombardments against IS targets "in the Middle East".

From September 2014 till summer 2015, a small detachment of six F-16 fighter bombers operated from a Jordanian AFB, conducting some 700 airstrikes with in excess of 100 IS targets destroyed. The detachment was then withdrawn, a move for which budget reasons were cited.

Belgium and The Netherlands being neighboring countries with a high degree of cooperation in numerous fields including defense, will from this summer on switch roles in the bombing campaigns.

For the Belgian component, the key difference may well be that this time, airstrikes on IS targets in Syria are not excluded:

"Belgium mulls Syria IS airstrikes

2nd March 2016

Belgium is considering extending its F-16 airstrikes against Islamic State jihadis in Iraq into Syria as part of stepped up efforts by the US-led anti-IS coalition, Foreign Minister Didier Reynders said Wednesday.

"I think you cannot just limit your actions to Iraq without pursuing these actions across the border when these terrorist groups cross the border" into Syria, Reynders told Bel-RTL radio.

"The Netherlands has come to the same conclusion and the Danes, and I think we are in the same position," he said.

Belgium launched its first attacks against Islamic State (IS) targets in Iraq in late 2014 but, like several other countries in the coalition, it decided against extending the air campaign into war-torn Syria amid public fears over getting dragged into a wider conflict.



However the bloody Paris attacks in November, which were claimed by IS, radically changed sentiment in favour of strikes in Syria.

As well as the Netherlands and Denmark, Britain has also changed tack and launched its first sorties against IS targets in Syria in December.

Reynders said that against this backdrop, the government would take the matter to parliament where many MPs want to go further, perhaps even to involve Libya where IS has made recent inroads.

He gave no timetable.

Washington has pushed its allies hard to step up the campaign against IS. The Belga news agency said US Defence Secretary Ashton Carter had written to his Belgian counterpart Steven Vandeput urging him to support airstrikes in Syria."

I offer my heartfelt condolences to the relatives of the deceased today, victims of callous islamic terrorism.

I encourage all the people of good will to pray for the dead, the wounded and their families, at this very moment undoubtedly torn with grief.

MOLENBEEK'S FINE UPSTANDING CITIZENS APPLAUD BRAVE POLICE OFFICERS FOR SALEH ABDESLAM CAPTURE.

Uh, another time perhaps.

Feel the love:




Video via François Desouche:




Just think about it. Imagine you're a White Christian expat in a mostly white expat community living in, say, Amman, Jordan. White fundamentalist Christians have been committing acts of terrorism aimed at islamic countries for at least 15 years. A gang of White fundamentalist Christians slaughter 130 muslims in neighboring Saudi Arabia during the hajj.

One fundamentalist Christian is known to have fled the carnage, not having found the courage to self-detonate among the followers of the prophet.

He is also suspected of hiding out in the enclave of White expats in Amman.

Four months later Jordanian police do find him, and arrest him.

What are you going to do when Jordanian police are suddenly omnipresent in your l'il White neighborhood?

Would you hurl insults at them? Throw stones at their vans, perhaps?

I suspect there's not a hair on your head that would think of doing that.

Well...

... in Molenbeek, just that happened.

Happens.


Meanwhile, in The Netherlands, Peter Vandermeersch, the editor-in-chief of daily NRC Handelsblad, the Dutch counterpart to Belgium's De Standaard, who is a Flemish Belgian himself and lo' and behold, a FORMER editor-in-chief of De Standaard (!) was invited to the studios of DWDD, for De Wereld Draait Door, a Dutch talk show sh(r)edding light on political and societal events:




Dixit Vandermeersch:

"DESPERATION IS THE BREEDING GROUND FOR THIS TERRORISM."

Because unemployment, raaaaaaaacist Belgians, lack of opportunities etc etc etc yada yada yada dontcha know.

In other words, ISLAM HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

The sight of this loosely coiffed, intentionally badly shaven "sophisticate", with a - so he kids himself - carefully cultivated image of mature wisdom, is almost sufficient to make me puke.

The fact that his "class" of utterly clueless, soi-disant intellectuals, who fancy defecating on their own culture for a sport, is still given ample occasions to spout their ridiculous nonsense, makes me despair for humanity.

RECOMMENDED VIDEO: HUNGARIAN PM VIKTOR ORBAN'S SPEECH "THE TIME HAS COME FOR OPPOSITION AND RESISTANCE."

Magnificent words from a Real Statesman!

At the occasion of the National Holiday of 15 March, one of three national holidays in Hungary and the one commemmorating the beginning of the 1848 Hungarian Revolution, PM Viktor Orban delivered a powerful speech without mincing his words. It stands in stark contrast to the dishonest, weak and foul language we are used to from the EU's corrupt (morally and otherwise) "leadership". Via Gates of Vienna:




Some key exerpts:

"Ladies and Gentlemen,

Europe is not free. Because freedom begins with speaking the truth. Today in Europe it is forbidden to speak the truth. Even if it is made of silk, a muzzle is a muzzle. It is forbidden to say that those arriving are not refugees, but that Europe is threatened by migration. It is forbidden to say that tens of millions are ready to set out in our direction. It is forbidden to say that immigration brings crime and terror to our countries. It is forbidden to point out that the masses arriving from other civilizations endanger our way of life, our culture, our customs and our Christian traditions. It is forbidden to point out that those who arrived earlier have have already built up their own new, separate world for themselves, with its own laws and ideals, which is forcing apart the thousand-year-old structure of Europe. It is forbidden to point out that this is not an accidental and unintentional chain of consequences, but a preplanned and orchestrated operation; a mass of people directed towards us. It is forbidden to say that in Brussels they are concocting schemes to transport foreigners here as quickly as possible and to settle them here among us. It is forbidden to point out that the purpose of settling people here is to reshape the religious and cultural landscape of Europe, and to reengineer its ethnic foundations. — thereby eliminating the last barrier to internationalism: the nation-states. It is forbidden to say that Brussels is now stealthily devouring more and more slices of our national sovereignty, and that in Brussels many are now making a plan for a United States of Europe — for which no one has ever given authorisation.



Ladies and Gentlemen,

Today’s enemies of freedom are cut from a different cloth than the royal and imperial rulers of old, or those who ran the Soviet system; they use a different set of tools to force us into submission. Today they do not imprison us, they do not transport us to concentration camps, and they do not send in tanks to occupy countries loyal to freedom. Today the international media’s artillery bombardments, denunciations, threats and blackmail are enough — or rather, have been enough so far. The peoples of Europe are slowly awakening, they are regrouping, and will soon regain ground. Europe’s beams that rest on the suppression of truth are creaking and cracking. The peoples of Europe may have finally understood that their future is at stake: Now not only are their prosperity, cosy lives, jobs at stake, but our very security and the peaceful order of our lives are menaced as well. At last, the peoples of Europe, who have been slumbering in abundance and prosperity, have understood that the principles of life that Europe has been built on are in mortal danger. Europe is the community of Christian, free, and independent nations; equality of men and women; fair competition and solidarity; pride and humility; justice and mercy.

This time the danger is not attacking us the way wars and natural disasters do, suddenly pulling the rug from under our feet. Mass migration is a slow stream of water persistently eroding the shores. It is masquerading as a humanitarian cause, but its true nature is the occupation of territory. And what is gaining territory for them is losing territory for us. Flocks of obsessed human rights defenders feel the overwhelming urge to reprimand us and to make allegations against us. Allegedly we are hostile xenophobes, but the truth is that the history of our nation is also one of inclusion. and the history of intertwining of cultures. Those who have sought to come here as new family members, as allies, or as displaced persons fearing for their lives have been let in to make a new home for themselves. But those who have come here with the intention of changing our country, shaping our nation in their own image, those who have come with violence and against our will, — have always been met with resistance.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

At first, they talk about only a few hundred, a thousand or two thousand relocated people. But not a single responsible European leader would dare to swear under oath that this couple of thousand will not eventually increase to tens or hundreds of thousands. If we want to halt this mass migration, first we must curb Brussels. The main danger to Europe’s future does not come from those who want to come here, but from Brussels’ fanatical internationalism. We should not allow Brussels to place itself above the law. We shall not allow it to force upon us the bitter fruit of its cosmopolitan immigration policy. We shall not import to Hungary crime, terrorism, homophobia and synagogue-burning anti-Semitism. There shall be no urban districts beyond the reach of the law, there shall be no mass disorder, No immigrant riots here, and there shall be no gangs hunting down our women and daughters. We shall not allow others to tell us whom we can let into our home and country, whom we will live alongside, and with whom we will share our country. We know how these things go. First we allow them to tell us whom we must take in, then they force us to serve foreigners in our own country. In the end we find ourselves being told to pack up and leave our own land. Therefore we reject the forced resettlement scheme, and we shall tolerate neither blackmail, nor threats.

The time has come to ring the warning bell. The time has come for opposition and resistance. The time has come to gather allies to us. The time has come to raise the flag of proud nations. The time has come to prevent the destruction of Europe, and to save the future of Europe. To this end, regardless of party affiliation, we call on every citizen of Hungary to unite, and we call on every European nation to unite. The leaders and citizens of Europe must no longer live in two separate worlds. We must restore the unity of Europe. We the peoples of Europe cannot be free individually if we are not free together. If we unite our forces, we shall succeed; if we pull in different directions, we shall fail. Together we are strength, disunited we are weakness. Either together, or not at all — today this is the law.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

In 1848 it was written in the book of fate that nothing could be done against the Habsburg Empire. If we had then resigned ourselves to that outcome, our fate would have been sealed, and the German sea would have swallowed up the Hungarians. In 1956 it was written in the book of fate that we were to remain an occupied and sovietised country, until patriotism was extinguished in the very last Hungarian. If then we had resigned ourselves to that outcome, our fate would have been sealed, and the Soviet sea would have swallowed up the Hungarians. Today it is written in the book of fate that hidden, faceless world powers will eliminate everything that is unique, autonomous, age-old and national. They will blend cultures, religions and populations, until our many-faceted and proud Europe will finally become bloodless and docile. And if we resign ourselves to this outcome, our fate will be sealed, and we will be swallowed up in the enormous belly of the United States of Europe. The task which awaits the Hungarian people, the nations of Central Europe and the other European nations which have not yet lost all common sense is to defeat, rewrite and transform the fate intended for us. We Hungarians and Poles know how to do this. We have been taught that one can only look danger in the face if one is brave enough. We must therefore drag the ancient virtue of courage out from under the silt of oblivion. First of all we must put steel in our spines, and we must answer clearly, with a voice loud enough to be heard far and wide, the foremost, the single most important question determining our fate: The question upon which the future of Europe stands or falls is this: “Shall we be slaves or men set free — That is the question, answer me!”
