I don't think that we can find another country that bends over backwards for Islam more than the UK. The number of Sharia Courts there has rising from five to over 80. It appears that the leaders of the UK want the country entirely placed under the Islamic boot heel, as they constantly look for new ways to cater to Muslims. Where is Winston Churchill when you need him?

This article presents two opposing viewpoints on whether the Netherlands should allow Sharia Courts like the UK has. The person against the courts is a Muslim woman, while the person in favor of them is non-Muslim Maurits Berger, a so called expert on Sharia. I believe that Mr. Berger should mind his own business here. Things with Islam in the Netherlands are bad enough already.

Something explosive is about to hit the British political arena, a book with ideas so shocking it will change the debate on the most important issue in European politics. For years, the European political class have told their peoples that mass immigration was beneficial, inevitable and historically precedented. It enriched our lives, it boosted our economy, it made us better people morally and it was a continuation of our countries’ histories of immigration, and anyone who disagrees is a racist bigot. The ruling class kitted the emperor out in his fancy new clothes and if people could not see them...

Even though UK's National Health Service has bent over backwards to please Muslims, it obviously is not enough. It will never be enough until they completely dominate the world. Muslim NHS dentist 'tried to force patients to wear traditional Islamic dress' A Muslim NHS dentist faces being struck off after a tribunal ruled he tried to force patients to wear traditional Islamic dress before treating them.

This is a followup to the "France Moves to Impose Ban on Burqa" article. President Sarkozy pulls no punches as he states his thoughts on the burqa. Sarkozy says burqas are 'not welcome' in France PARIS – President Nicolas Sarkozy lashed out Monday at the practice of wearing the Muslim burqa, insisting the full-body religious gown is a sign of the "debasement" of women and that it won't be welcome in France.

Apparently the UK does not think that Islam has changed their country enough. So they want to make it more Islamic. In the past UK prisons actually went out of the way to move the toilets so that they did not face Mecca, and as usual Muslims have just moved on to their next demand.

Recently President Obama had the Department of Justice issue a statement which was basically a license for Muslims to advance their religion across America. In the meantime France which is being overrun by Islam is changing course and starting to push back against the Islamic threat.

Obviously some of the politicians in Poland have not learned by the constant demands by Muslims in Greece, Sweden, the Netherlands, and the UK. Catering to them just puts them a little closer to dominating the non-Muslims in your country. Wake up and worry about the majority.

Good vid on what is going on in Malmo.

PASTOR JONATHAN Oloyede, the church leader behind prayer initiative Global Day of Prayer London (GDOP), has called on Christians to stand up for their faith and protect Britain’s cultural heritage. Speaking at a special GDOP prayer event held in the London Borough of Newham Pastor Oloyede said Muslims “want to take over” the country. "I used to be a Muslim. The Muslims don't just want to build a mosque. They want to take over,” he said. “If you want to roll over and play dead while the legacy of your forefathers is thrown in the dust and you can't stand...

This article was sent in by Paul Stanner an English teacher over in China. Please give his site a visit here. Who Has Queen Isabella's Jewels? By Paul Stanner I have a question for you all to ponder today. First however I will provide a little background information.

Nearly half of the predominantly Iraqi-refugees residing in Vännäs in northern Sweden have decided to permanently move out of the area after being terrorized by what police called “a lynch mob” in early May. “I thought that Vännäs was the perfect place for us. And there are many, many friendly people here. But we still don’t dare to stay; I’m seriously concerned about my children’s safety,” said father of five Ismail Ramadan to the Svenska Dagbladet (SvD) newspaper. Ramadan’s family and several others have decided to abandon plans of starting a life in the small community outside of Umeå less...

Being of a sinister disposition, I have continued to ruminate upon the likely course of events as relations between European countries and their Muslim fifth columns unravel. In particular, I would like to focus on the probable nature of attempts on the part of native populations to bring about what is euphemistically referred to as the repatriation of their Muslim populations. To recap briefly, in ‘Surrender, Genocide or What?’ (hereafter referred to as SGW), I suggested that there were three basic ways in which the number of Muslims in any given European country could, in principle, be reduced: through pressuring...

In the middle of one square stands a mosque with Arabic writing outside. That used to be a church. ROME (Chiesa) - In Feyenoord, veiled women can be seen everywhere, darting like a flash through the streets of the neighborhood. They avoid any sort of contact, even eye contact, especially with men. Feyenoord is the size of a city, and there are seventy nationalities coexisting there. It is an area that lives on subsidies and residential construction, and it is here that it is most obvious that Holland – with all of its rules against discrimination and all of its...

Here entire neighborhoods look like the Middle East, women walk around veiled, the mayor is a Muslim, sharia law is applied in the courts and the theaters. An extensive report from the most Islamized city in Europe. ROME, May 19, 2009 – One of the most indisputable results of Benedict XVI's trip to the Holy Land was the improvement in relations with Islam. The three days he spent in Jordan, and then, in Jerusalem, the visit to the Dome of the Mosque, spread an image among the Muslim general public – to an extent never before seen – of a...

With the rapid growth of Muslim populations in Europe, Muslim demographics represents a topic that is on everyone’s mind. From the rising radicalism of UK Muslims to the car burnings that shook Paris to the riots in Brussels and the growing acceptance that some form of Sharia law will be integrated into the legal systems of individual European nations-- not just the size, but the projected size of Muslim populations is behind attitudes toward Muslims.

"Most Terror Suspects Freed Without Charge, British Gov’t Says" Thursday, May 14, 2009 By David Stringer, Associated Press London (AP) – SNIPPET: "Britain's Home Office said 1,471 people were arrested as suspected terrorists between September 2001 and March 2008, the first time it has compiled data on the often controversial arrests. Of those, fewer than 200 have been convicted as a terrorists..."

A hotel in the Austrian region of Tyrol that said it does not accept Jewish guests has caused shock in the local media and tourism industry, the daily Tiroler Tageszeitung reported Sunday.

Sweden of today, despite the remnants of Socialism that still are found everywhere and the influx of Muslims who wish to come here and practice barbarism (and despite of this receive support from our PC, Multiculturalist politicians and our ridiculous media "professionals"), actually is a very nice place to live in. Still. Americans, as well as Danes, Norwegians and some people from the richest parts of Central Europe often get annoyed when we Swedes point out that Sweden of today, probably, has the highest standard of living of all countries (from a "materialist" perspective). In terms of living space and...

Munich - Plans for a new mosque to be built in Munich got the official go-ahead Wednesday, after years of political wrangling. The city council approved building plans for the 10-million-euro (13 million dollar) mosque to be built in the city centre, despite opposition from Bavaria's Christian Socialist Union (CSU) and another regional party. A broad political majority voted in favour of the project, including Social Democrats (SPD), Federal Democrats (FDP), Greens and the Left Party, according to a city spokesman. The Turkish-Islamic mosque organisation Ditim now has to obtain the funds to buy the land for the mosque by...

(ANSAmed) - PARIS, MAY 8 - Some 80% of Muslims in France believe they remain faithful to their countries of origin, according to a survey by the American Gallup research institute that questioned a sample of Muslims in 27 countries. In all 8% said they were not faithful to their original countries and 12% did not reply. The research also showed that in Britain Muslims "loyal" to their original countries amount to 82% and in Germany the figure is 71%. The survey published yesterday but carried out in 2008 adds that only 44% of French of other religions believe that...

A medal established by the Queen is being withdrawn after it was declared unlawful and offensive to Muslims and Hindus. The cross-shaped honour - The Trinity Cross of the Order of Trinity - has been handed to distinguished members of the former colony of Trinidad and Tobago. The Christian name and cross are now being replaced with the Order of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago - a circular medal featuring a sun, stars, water and a map of the islands. The Privy Council, made up of 12 law lords, ruled the merit decoration was unlawful because it discriminates against...

The French have an odd notion of boycotts. My good friend Scott Johnson at Power Line discovers this video of a “boycott” action in France organized, apparently, by Europalestine.com, or at least publicized by them. Take a look at the uniformed thuggery that takes place in a French grocery store: [video at link] Boycotts are perfectly legitimate free-market forms of protest — but this isn’t a boycott at all. A boycott is an organized effort to stop buying products or services from some offending source. This is an organized theft ring and nothing more. Unless they’re paying for those groceries,...

It appears as if another country is afraid of Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders because of his outspoken views about Islam and his film Fitna, which intersperses excerpts from the Koran with depictions of Islamic violence. Following the lead of Great Britain, Denmark has postponed a conference on free speech to which Wilders was invited by the Danish People’s Party. The conference was scheduled for February, then delayed until June, the Copenhagen Post reports. “But now, according to information received by Berlingske Tidende newspaper, the conference has been delayed again because of government’s concern over Geert Wilders.” The Danish Foreign Ministry...

In 1683, the armies of Islam besieged Vienna for the second time. The first occasion had been a century and a half earlier. The great Islamic Empire of the time, the Ottoman Empire, under the long reign of Suleiman the Magnificent (1520-1566) was then at its zenith. It had extended its borders on the Danube far to the west of Budapest always poising to capture Vienna that stood between its armies and Western Europe. Suleiman regarded himself then as the ruler of the world, and treated the great kings of Europe as his subjects. The actual subjugation of the rest...

Some snapshots of where Europe's headed: Following my post about Andrew Lloyd Webber, Michael Caine is now threatening to quit Britain over its tax rates. I last ran into him a year or two back at Spiaggia in Chicago (Barack Obama's favorite restaurant apparently) when I was dining with my old boss Conrad Black, and Sir Michael, who was in town filming his Alfred the Butler turn for The Dark Knight, and his lovely wife Shakira came over to say hello. Anyway, enough of the social notes. Caine works hard for his nights out at Spiaggia, which is more than...

Few outsiders took much notice of the bookshop whose shabby frontage and fading paint blended seamlessly into the rundown Leeds suburb. They were not to know that behind its door lay an incubating chamber breeding believers in a virulent jihadist ideology that one day would bring mass murder to London. The shop on Beeston Hill was called Iqra, Arabic for “recite”. It was the first word of the Koran as revealed to the Prophet. When the shop was opened in 2000 by “a dedicated core of brothers and sisters who have taken it upon themselves to propagate the message of...

For decades following WWII, any discussion regarding Germany was bound to deteriorate into a discussion of Nazism and Hitler. If I post something here on this great site about, say, the Swedish National Ice Hockey Team, that thread will sooner or later end up in a discussion about Malmö and how the Muzzies have taken over large parts of Sweden as well as other places in Europe. As a Swede/European, I don't mind. Eurabia is reality and I'm convinced Americans who accuse us Europeans of being naive do so not out of malice or hatred towards Europe, but out of...

The Western world has never taken Islam with the full seriousness it has earned. Down through history, once Islamic armies have conquered a land, with very few exceptions, that land has remained Muslim. A Christian will wish in vain that the great circle of Christian lands around the Mediterranean (and on up into Syria, Iraq, Iran, and northwards into Georgia) had not fallen irretrievably into Muslim hands, most of them before 732 A.D. For Christians who think that the future of the world favors movement in their direction, a study of the latent dynamism of Islam is not a little...

SHEIK Taj Din al-Hilali: "The Western people are the biggest liars and oppressors and especially the English race," the Mufti of Australia said in Arabic during the extensive interview in Egypt, his birthplace. [source]On the racist gang rape spree by Arab Lebanese people|Lebanese in Australia targeting specifically white girls, From the Sydney Morning Herald 2002 Racist rapes: Finally the truth comes out, So now we know the facts, straight from the Supreme Court, that a group of Lebanese Muslim gang rapists from south-western Sydney hunted their victims on the basis of their ethnicity and subjected them to hours of degrading,...

To live as God in France: both the Germans and the Dutch use this expression of longing for a life of ease and beauty, for a terrestrial paradise. It’s easy to see why. Dutch friends came to stay in my house in France and found everything enchanting—from the landscape and the weather to the politeness of the butcher and the quality of the meat he sold. The bread alone seemed worth the trip, to say nothing of the charcuterie, and France seemed a smiling land quite without problems. Opening Le Figaro for March 16, however, one discovers another France: far...

The Euro leaders’ adulation of The Obama didn’t translate into providing any more combat troops for Afghanistan. Some might chalk it up to commonplace continental fecklessness. But Tucker Carlson has offered a much more chilling explanation, one with ramifications extending far beyond the specific matter at hand. Appearing on Morning Joe today, Carlson flatly stated that “Europe is afraid of its own Muslim population.” He continued: TUCKER CARLSON: And that’s one of the main reasons it doesn’t want to commit troops to Afghanistan, because it’s afraid of domestic unrest in its own countries. So that has nothing to with how...

To become NATO secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen will apologize for the Mohammed cartoons.

Fanatics let into UK during G20 By Ian Kirby, 05/04/2009 HOME Secretary Jacqui Smith's department is under fire for allowing two leading terrorist sympathisers to enter Britain. Both spoke at the House of Commons last week at a pro-Palestinian meeting organised by a far-left Labour MP Jeremy Corbyn. One is Hussein Al Hajj Hassan, a member of the political wing of Lebanese terror group Hezbollah. The other is Dyab Abou Jahjah, a Belgian Muslim firebrand who has published disgusting anti-Semitic cartoons. Alert One showed Adolf Hitler and 15-year-old Holocaust victim Anne Frank both naked in bed with the caption: "Write...

Because it depicts Muhammad being dragged into hell by a demon. Respect Europe's culture and history? Pah! It is all worthless trash, jahiliyya! Eurabia Alert: "Corridors of Power in Milan, Italy: Bad Manners, Bad Intentions and More," by Roland Flamini in World Politics Review, March 27 (thanks to Creeping Sharia): ISLAMIC PROTEST -- Visitors to the magnificent church of St. Petronio in Bologna are now searched by Italian police before entering because in addition to protests by Muslims offended by a depiction of Mohammed in a 14th-century fresco, there have been unsuccessful attempts to blow the painting up.

Thank you UK Muslims: Rowan Williams 28/03/2009 01:02:00 PM GMT src="http://islamicmediacity.com/cms_files/news_images/1238234391.jpg";> (nola.com) I think Islam has made a very significant contribution to getting a debate about religion into public life, Williams said. CAIRO — In an unprecedented move by a Western Christian leader, Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams has praised British Muslims for bringing back religion and ethics into public life. "I think Islam has made a very significant contribution to getting a debate about religion into public life," Williams, the leader of the Anglican Church, told the Muslim News. "And I think it's very right that we should have...

Illegal immigrant raped teenage girl in alleyway 27 March 2009 By Staff Copy An Afghan man who came to this country illegally, attacked and raped a Kenilworth teenager in an alleyway just hours after arriving in the town. Rapist Jawid Armani was caught soon after the attack on the 16-year-old girl as she was walking home at 1.30am in the morning on March 14. And a judge at Warwick Crown Court heard that the 32-year-old Afghan is wanted for questioning by Thames ValADVERTISEMENTley police over a similar attack on a girl in that force's area. Armani, of no fixed address,...

All over Europe Islamic banks are establishing branches, Western banks are offering Sharia-compliant financial services, and European governments are trying to outcompete each other in welcoming them. Proponents of banking along the lines of Sharia (Islamic law) claim that the Islamic banking system is “more ethical” than the West’s capitalist system. This is not true. Unfortunately, however, in our age of crashing financial markets, many Westerners – not just the traditional anti-capitalist European left – seem very eager to buy that argument. Early this month, even the Vatican newspaper Osservatore Romano voiced its approval of Sharia banking. “The ethical principles...

What is Eurabian Culture? Gates of Vienna 20 March 2009 By Baron BodisseyI’ve written so many times in this space about the OIC (the Organization of the Islamic Conference) that it sometimes feels like I do nothing but fisk Secretary General Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu (see the bottom of this post for a list of previous articles on Prof. Ihsanoglu and the OIC).Since the UN Human Rights Council is simply a mouthpiece for the OIC, the “human rights” working papers and resolutions that come out of Turtle Bay are, for practical purposes, OIC productions, indistinguishable in style and substance from the...

British film director Ken Loach says that a rise in anti-Semitism in Europe since the Gaza crisis is "not surprising and understandable". He was responding to a report earlier this week by the Vienna-based agency for fundamental rights (FRA) which said cases of anti-Semitism had risen across Europe since last December. The agency, which collected information from 19 EU members, said rises in anti-Semitism, ranging from vandalism to physical attacks, were a serious concern. "There does seem to be a relationship between the rise of anti-Semitism in the EU and the situation in the Middle East," said Ioannis Dimitrakopoulos, one...

Fewer people are seeking asylum in Sweden, with the number of applications dropping 33 percent last year, according to new statistics. "During 2008, 24,342 persons sought asylum in Sweden, which is a decrease of 11,865 applications compared to 2007," Statistics Sweden (SCB) said in a statement on Friday. Two-thirds of applicants were men and one-third were women, a common proportion since 2000, it added. Over 100 nationalities were represented among the asylum seekers. The largest group was Iraqis who accounted for a quarter of applications. However, SCB noted that the number of Iraqi asylum seekers was down dramatically. "Iraqis represented...

Pope Benedict XVI told Muslim leaders on Thursday that true religion rejects violence, and he held up peaceful coexistence between Christianity and Islam in Cameroon as "a beacon to other African nations." In Cameroon's capital, a clapping, swaying crowd of 40,000 faithful from Africa's expanding, vibrant Catholic flock later welcomed him to a football stadium where he celebrated Mass. There, he delivered a message of encouragement for Africa and expressed compassion for the children being forced by paramilitaries to fight in some countries. To these children he said: "God loves you, he has not forgotten you." Child soldiers, often kidnapped,...

Just yesterday we read that American Muslim Organizations were threatening to end all outreach programs with the FBI. Today we see UK Islamic hate preacher Anjem Choudary telling his followers to be extra careful while plotting Islamic terrorist attacks.

Damascus - A delegation of Damascus-based politicians from Hamas is planning a European tour, a senior Hamas leader said Wednesday, in a further sign of shifting European attitudes towards the group. Ali Baraka, a senior Hamas politician based in Damascus, told Deutsche Presse-Agentur dpa that several European countries had extended invitations to the group, and that the delegation planned to accept them. Baraka declined to name the countries or the exact dates of the visit, 'for fear Israel would erect obstacles to prevent their happening.' 'The movement is coming to the realization that members of the EU parliament have a...

Hannah Shah had been raped by her father and faced a forced marriage. She fled, became a Christian and now fears for her lifeWe are all too familiar with the persecution of Christians in countries such as Pakistan and Afghanistan. Yet sitting in front of me is a British woman whose life has been threatened in this country solely because she is a Christian. Indeed, so real is the threat that the book she has written about her experiences has had to appear under an assumed name. The book is called The Imam’s Daughter because “Hannah Shah” is just that:...

I still don't know who wanted me dead. I was sitting in my car one day last november, not far from my house in the northwest Pakistani city of Peshawar, when a group of strangers walked up. One of them pointed a pistol through my window. I remember he wore a turban and shalwar kameez—the tunic and baggy pants common in the area—and he had a long beard, dyed red with henna. He shot me in the chest, hand and arm, and then fled with his friends. Miraculously, none of the bullets hit any arteries or vital organs, and as...

The repellent spectacle of Muslims demonstrating in Luton against the British soldiers returning from Iraq does more than turn our stomach. It tells us in graphic form that this country has not only utterly failed to combat a threat to itself from within but - astoundingly - turns not against those who threaten it but against those who seek to defend it. When the returning troops of the 2nd Battalion, the Royal Anglian Regiment paraded through Luton they had to run the gauntlet of Muslim protesters waving placards saying: ‘Anglian soldiers: Butchers of Basra,’ and ‘Anglian soldiers: cowards, killers, extremists.’...

A Muslim fundamentalist leader today told of his vision of Britain under Sharia law.Anjem Choudary said he wanted the “flag of Allah” flying over Downing Street, all women wearing burkas and caning for drunkenness. He is the leader of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaah, founded as a successor to the banned fundamentalist sect al-Muhajiroun, which was led by now-exiled preacher Omar Bakri Muhammad. The self-proclaimed Sharia judge admitted his followers had organised protests against British soldiers in Luton this week, waving placards which called them “murderers” for their conduct in Iraq. Mr Choudary, a 41-year-old lawyer, said he was proud to...
