In the wake of the Charlie Hebdo tragedy, more than ever politicians, media and elites reiterate that only a small (indeed, tiny) minority of Muslims commit acts like the recent Paris attacks.
First of all, we must observe that this is not a statement of fact, but rather an expression of hope.
For we don't know the number or percentage of would-be terrorists that the Muslim population in each Western country harbours.
Because to know how many they are would also mean knowing who they are - all of them -, in which case we would have solved the terrorist problem with closer surveillance or, much better, expulsion.
So, almost by definition, we haven't got the faintest idea of their number.
We can't even rely on the figure of aggressions actually carried out as a good indicator, because this is only a fraction of the total of terror attacks planned, most of which have been foiled by police and secret services: many of these we haven't even got to hear about. And the total number of planned offensives, prevented or executed, doesn't offer predictions about future ones in such uncertain circumstances.
What we do know is that in several countries Muslim immigrant populations tend to get more radicalised with each successive generation, so the threat is going to increase. This can explain the by-now thousands of jihadists travelling from Europe to fight in Syria and Iraq and often returning to Europe with terrorist training and intentions.
If what happens in the rest of the world, where Islamism and its violence are on the rise, is an indication for the West, the prospects are not happy.
But, even if the number of terrorists were indeed a tiny minority of the West's Muslims, this wouldn't alter the fact that there is a question to be answered: why? Why take the risk? Why deliberately expose innocent Westerners to the threat of being massacred?
We know - nobody disputes it - that Muslims periodically take up guns, explosives, airplanes or what have you to terrorise and slaughter people in buildings, cafes, trains, buses and stores in various Western countries.
We also know that no other group approaches the same level of public, direct physical menace.
Why shouldn't Western nations remove this unnecessary peril?
We can't even say that Muslims belong in Europe, that they have a traditional or cultural foothold on European soil. In fact, they have been our enemy throughout their history. Even Spain and Sicily were invaded and conquered by Muslims, but didn't welcome them.
I know I’m stating the obvious here, but, from the way the talking heads and pundits speak and write, it appears that it needs to be stated.
Something else that public figures are pleased to repeat is that most Muslims condemn this act. In reality, there is no evidence for that either. I haven’t heard of any Muslim demonstration against it. 82% of French people think that Muslims are showing no condemnation of terrorism in France.
One fact of life we’ve learned by induction is that shouting ”Allahu Akbar” is a sure sign that every deed accompanying or following this utterance is of non-Islamic nature, as every time this sequence occurs we are guaranteed that the action is not just non-Islamic but – more strongly - un-Islamic. Such an episode occurred just before Christmas, still in France, when a man ploughed his white van into a Christmas market crowd in Nantes screaming ”Allahu Akbar”, injuring dozens of people - the third incident of its kind in the country in a few days. The man was correctly not described in the newspaper report as Muslim. He might have been anything.
So, is there a benefit - it must be very, very secret as nobody has ever heard of it - that Muslims bring to our lands that compensates for and outweighs the recurring nightmares that they produce and could be even more tragic and numerous if it were not for the enormous expenditure on police and intelligence resources deployed to keep their threat at bay, public-purse money that our over-indebted countries cannot afford?
Not only there is no such benefit. There are indeed additional burdens. Mostly these are not typical of Muslims only, but of general Third-World and mass immigrants. Indeed the problem of the former and the latter are related and difficult to separate. But, since Muslims represent a more specific threat to life and limb than other immigrant groups and there is widespread acceptance of Islam specifically as a negative presence in Europe, this could be a good starting point to tackle the seemingly-intractable immigration question.
A UK 2012 poll found that Britons are far more strongly opposed to immigration, particularly from Muslim countries, than they have been at any time in recent memory. An October 2014 survey showed that three out of four Londoners (74%) think that Britons who have travelled to Syria or Iraq to fight with extremist groups should be banned from returning to the UK. Here are some issues:
What is preached by UK-based Muslim cleric Anjem Choudary is that benefits from the infidel state are a form of jizya, the tax that only non-Muslims have to pay as dhimmis, the condition of submission they are forced to live in under Islamic rule.
In Denmark, “Muslims make up 5% of the population but receive 40% of social-welfare outlays.”
In Germany, foreign nationals are consistently overrepresented in unemployment figures, with Turks being in the worst situation, with an unemployment rate of 23% and comprising one third of all unemployed foreigners.
German Journalist Dr Udo Ulfkotte has a good argument showing that expelling Muslims will even help Europe fight its financial crisis:
Muslim immigrants in Germany up until 2007, Dr Ulfkotte explains, "have taken 1 billion euros more out of our social welfare system than they have paid into our system". To give a better idea of the magnitude of this figure and put it into perspective, he adds that the total debt of the German government is 1.7 billion euros. Expelling Muslims, therefore, will help Europe fight its financial crisis.In Sweden, a 15.1% immigrant population burden 60.5% of the entire nations welfare costs.
Despite all attempts to make immigration look good, in the UK we see that, while European immigrants bring a net economic benefit to the country, non-Europeans take in benefits and services £100 billion (or 14%) more than they put back. In 17 years they cost the public purse nearly £120 billion.
This differential, indeed opposite, effect of European versus non-European immigration on British economy makes Nigel Farage, leader of the fast-rising populist, anti-EU and anti-immigration party UKIP, sound absurd when he concentrates his efforts on stopping Bulgarian and Romanian immigration instead of the much more ruinous Asian and African invasion. But obviously he doesn’t want to be called racist..
Yet for our leaders and commentators the possibility of a Muslim-free Europe is not even a remotely conceivable possibility. Listening to them is a surreal experience: they talk as if Muslim presence in our countries were an ineluctable fact of life, like death and taxes, and not a deliberate choice of corrupt politicians and self-serving elites.
They make you feel as if Muslims had profound roots on our soil and were part and parcel of Western civilisation, both of which are as far from the truth as they can be.
Maintaining the Islamic presence here is for them the Kantian categorical imperative, nay it's more than that: it's a religious commandment. "Thou shalt welcome, feed, house and accept to be killed by Muslims, and never reject or deport them en masse."
Whereas the sensible solution would be to stop Muslims from taking up residence here and expel those who have already done so.
In fact, credit should be given to ‘Amru Adib, a very popular Egyptian TV show host, for this remark he made after the Charlie Hebdo attack:
He asked pious Muslims who cannot tolerate a word against Islam, “So why are you, of your own free will, moving to these godless nations[the West] in the first place.”During the same show he pointed out that, to many Muslims, the fact that the Egyptian president Sisi entered a Christian church on the eve of January 7, the Coptic Christmas, demonstrates that he must be an infidel. The Salafi party immediately said: "We will never congratulate the Christians on their festivals. What’re you crazy?!". Adib answered these many Muslims by saying:
Okay, I get it, you hate Christians. But can you please be consistent? Why do you cooperate with them in other regards? Why do you go to their nations [reference to the West]? Why do you go to their doctors? Please, let your hate be consistent.”In short, our situation is not very far from collective madness, although I can spot a few signs that greater numbers of people, at every new atrocity, find it increasingly difficult to believe in the TV and newspapers interpretations more than in what their own eyes and ears tell them.I have no doubt that 3/4 of those hearing me are cursing me now — saying “he’s an infidel, an apostate!”…
DON CHERRY, Canadian Hockey Commentator for CBC Television, was asked on a local live radio talk show what he thought about the allegations of torture of suspected terrorists. His reply prompted his ejection from the studio but to thunderous applause from the audience.
HIS STATEMENT:
"If hooking up one rag head terrorist prisoner's testicles to a car battery to get the truth out of the lying little camel shagger will save just one Canadian or American life, then I have only three things to say: 'Red is positive, black is negative & make sure his nuts are wet."
As the multi-culti Quislings well understand.
Amen to that. Opinion stated as something it isn't. Interesting how we hear the same thing in this nation and not just about Muslims.
That is sufficient debate on this issue. Thanks.
A pro-AMERICAN, anti-radical-Islamic administration is needed first! The Islamic pandering has to stop first....in favor of America’s interests.
Percentages can be very deceiving. When talking about the “tiny percentage” who are “radical” islamists, it’s important to remember that the percentage is of a group that numbers over a billion people. The smallest percentage of such a huge group is still a very large number of people.
If this was a Christian invasion the MSM would be wetting their panties over all the stories.
Did you mean politically correct?
If 911, or the recent event in France had been done by foreign terrorists calling themselves Nazis, would the West be so eager to import more of them? Would we all be taking Nazi sensitivity courses? Would we be told repeatedly that Nazis are peaceful, and that the fanatics and extremists are not practicing true Nazism? Islam is worse than Nazism. In the entire history of Islamic expansion, there isn’t a single place on the face of the earth that is better off after being conquered by Islam. Islam is a system of slavery that destroys its believers.
I am a hockey fan, so I see Don Cherry regularly. Half the time, I think he is full of hot air, but he is right on here. He is rather entertaining at times, and those suits. Holy moly.
Development plans for an islamic center are underway for an 9-acre site in nearby Lexington, KY. These islamic centers and mosques are spreading like cancer across America.
Suggestions:
1) Immigration is a privilege, not a right.
2) Immigration is Probationary. No welfare, no crime for 5 years. Otherwise, home you go. Due process shall take no more than 6 weeks.
3) No “Anchor Babies”. Children of Immigrants who are not naturalized citizen are NOT granted US citizenship at birth. However, their citizenship is retroactive if BOTH parents become US citizens before the child’s 16th birthday.
4) Islam as a religion is fine. Worship your concept of God however you wish as long as it does not hurt others. Hurt as in “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me.”
5) Those who advocate that part of Islam which concerns political government are to be considered as agents of a foreign power and deported immediately, if crimes have not been committed. Jesus told Pilate, “My kingdom is not of this world.” However, His commands about how to treat our neighbor apply to us all and are the basis of Western law & justice. Sorry, but Mohammed’s commands do not apply here. Period.
6) There used to be a saying that the punishment should fit the crime. However, the Death Penalty, the ultimate punishment is Western law, has little or no deterrent effect on a Muslim jihadist:
“It was reported in the hadeeth of al-Miqdaam ibn Ma’di Karb that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
“The martyr (shaheed) has seven blessings from Allaah: he is forgiven from the moment his blood is first shed; he will be shown his place in Paradise; he will be spared the trial of the grave; and he will be secure on the Day of the Greatest Terror (the Day of Judgement); there will be placed on his head a crown of dignity, one ruby of which is better than this world and all that is in it; he will be married to seventy-two of al-hoor al-‘iyn; and he will be permitted to intercede for seventy of his relatives.”
Therefore, a punishment with suitable deterrent value shall be applied to jihadists, one which will negate the seven blessings Allah will purportedly bestow on them upon their martyrdom.
What honest infidel would want to live in a country with 25% muslims? If not 25%, why have any?
I wonder what it is here. I'd like to see dollar costs for ALL groups of welfare recipients.

Because they are doing so deliberately as part of a calculated plan to take over the world and declare a worldwide caliphate to bring about the arrival of their 12th Imam believed to be the AntiChrist...

And they aren’t there for just worship either. Thst are terrorist training camps and weapon caches. Everybody knows thirs now yet the looney lefties want to nvite them right in having no concept of what they are up to or if they do not realizing their own necks are goingto go on the chopping block. Damn they are idiots.
Ok, so she can’t be elected as an American President...
Can we at least have Enza Ferreri as Secretary of State?
All Muslims should be deported from Europe and the Americas.
This will have to be done over the protests of the Pope and virtually all Catholic bishops, who have aligned themselves with the super-wealthy elites in all Western countries, who want to turn every Western country into a controllable Third World dungheap.
