Fear of Muslims benefits Europe's rightists (Socialist govts losing power across Western Europe)

COPENHAGEN - A wave of anti-Muslim sentiment has bolstered far-right parties in some European countries since Sept. 11 and left the Continent's large communities of foreigners wondering how long their welcome will last.

The changing mood has found its fullest political expression here in Denmark, where an anti-immigrant party won 12 percent of the vote in parliamentary elections in November, nearly doubling its showing from the previous election. Its campaign posters featured a picture of a young blond girl and the slogan: "When she retires, Denmark will have a Muslim majority."

Since this is originally a Washington Post story, I can't post the whole thing. Go here to read it. It's about a week old, but well worth it.

I think the big concern is that the M-E situation will push virtually all muslim immigrants into the Social-Dems column. I wonder how much the "rightists" worry about backlash.

Thanks for posting this. Your link leads to the International Herald Tribune, not the Wash Post, but that's ok.

I'm glad Europe is starting to wake up on this subject, I only hope our country does the same.

And now I want to say something potentially inflamatory. The only way out of this dilemma, for Europe, certainly, and for America too, is for the native born of each country to have more children. In fact, even if this is inflamatory it is much discussed and well documented. Abortion, the pill, the zipless f*ck (as Erica Jong put it) have brought our culture to the brink of destruction.

Yes, I believe there is a world wide Muslim movement to convert, enslave or kill us all. It's time to fight back, revitalize our culture, expand our population, and protect ourselves.

This obvious truth is ignored, on purpuse, by the western liberal media.

I fear there are too many liberals from the Clinton ilk who still harbour an unsounded hatred for conservatism who will only view this as an opportunity to liaise with the Muslims, rather than share in the defense of the Constitution.

Exactly, we have to outf*** them.

[Bogie]

Right you are! And don't forget that it was Europe that got into the "multiculturism" years ahead of the US. There are many plaes in France that are actually Arab today.

So I say, let's support and defend the Constitution. Stick it in Clinton's ear!

Yessir! I'll do my patriotic duty! Victory is ours! You think they make the women wear those bags for no reason? Cut off their supply of hair remover, and they won't be able to tell the girls from the camels!

Ping!

"Right you are! And don't forget that it was Europe that got into the "multiculturism" years ahead of the US. There are many places in France that are actually Arab today."

There are five million Arabs in France today and Le Pen's popularity is soaring. The French are on the verge of being completely overwhelmed and likely to become a Muslim country at some point in the future.

Europe needs to move right. Gotta kick out those Socialists. This is good.

Do you know anything about some Jews being in Le Pen's organization?

I think the big concern is that the M-E situation will push virtually all muslim immigrants into the Social-Dems column. I wonder how much the "rightists" worry about backlash. You have to figure in the latent hostility of Europans toward the Muslims. No country in Europe has our tolerance for foreign cultures.

That will change them ---they'll drop out of the fashion industry altogether, they'll have to stop their nude beaches. No more cheesy French movies.

"Do you know anything about some Jews being in Le Pen's organization?"

Nope. Don't know about that.

"No country in Europe has our tolerance for foreign cultures."

This is the problem - while we teach unquestioning tolerance, muslims teach their children that they and their culture alone are superior to ALL other peoples and cultures even though there is little to recommend their way of life to any other societies. So they grow up insisting on their way or the highway. If they can't convert Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, they are admonished to kill them.

Before they acquire enough strength in a region to perform these sword point conversions, this attitude will manifest itself as Arab-American groups for example with nothing at all to say about the slaughter of 3,000 of their "fellow" Americans, but scream like stuck pigs :) if Israel should dare to fight back.

[crystalk]

Yes, conservative Jews have always been a part of le Pen's National Front, would have to have been, if for no other reason, to avoid charges of anti-Semitism.

This would be the only hope for France, but no other nation has ever gone to 10% Muslim and been saved.

Some freepers have mentioned there are a few Jews in leadership roles in the Front National. The other 600,000 Jews in France no doubt voted for the "diversity" multiculturists who encouraged the North Africans who are now burning down synagogues to come into the country.

A worldwide phenonomon. You can see it NYC today. Thousands protesting Israel in a state with many Jewish congressional reps.. Ain't the Democrat party great?
