Dyab Abou Jahjah's Arab European League calls for sharia law, celebrates 9/11 and warned Belgian Jews to break with Israel or else. Is he defending Muslims' civil rights -- or inciting hatred?

[blueminnesota]

Why aren't Europeans about this? And how the hell are all these Muslims getting into the EU, I know they wouldn't give me citizenship.

[blueminnesota]

Should be "Why aren't Europeans concerned about this?" Guess it's a rhetorical question anyway.

[glorgau]

From the article:

Police were called, but lacking sufficient grounds for his arrest, he says, they simply gave him a ride home.

Pathetic. Don't they have anything called trespass over there?

[sheik yerbouty]

He needs to be at room temperature..

[Mister Baredog]

Amazing, letting him get away with this will only encourage more of it.

I guess a lot of them will have to DIE b4 they get serious about terrorists.

[COEXERJ145]

If this had been someone criticizing Muslims, they would have been locked away for years.

[GSlob]

Couldn't he be disappeared?

[blueminnesota]

Well apparently being a terror-inciting criminal isn't enough for him to even be arrested or questioned in Europe. No, he's a respected community LEADER there. So I don't know how he's going to get dead. Unless he tries attacking one of those Jewish communities he's complaining about. The ones with the IDF rscruits in them.

I think Arab culture would be an improvement over the French.

I don't know what the moooslim population is in Belgium, but in France its about 5 million. I figure the French are desperately trying to appease this group in order to avoid a civil war. I don't think they will be successful.

[blueminnesota]

But how do they GET there? Is there an open immigration policy? I was living in the Czech Republic for a while and took a weekend trip to Brussels. I couldn't believe when I crossed the border from E. Europe to W. Europe. "Where are the Europeans?" I said. It seemed at least 50% immigrants.

[ALPAPilot]

Am I the only one who thinks the sharia law would be a wonderfully eye opening experience for those leftists?

[McGavin999]

It's not so much how they are getting into europe, it's how they are managing to stay after they open their mouths.

[Nachum]

I think it would be instructive to reflect on past European history in various wars and conflicts here. I know we have historians amoung the readers here at FR. What is the boiling point in past wars where the indiginous populations (ie. French, Brittish, Italian, Germany etc.) finally rose up to attack foreigners in their midst? Perhaps that will give an insight as to how long it will take for actual Muslim-Euro war to begin.

"Israel must vanish," he said, his voice calm and even. "The killings of Palestinians must cease."

Typical order of priorities.

I think several European countries--Germany springs to mind--began inviting muslims into their countries to fill employment voids that their own citizens did not want.

[MrBambaLaMamba]

"...He needs to be at room temperature..."

Second that motion, along with all his friends.

The best way to end war and ensure peace is to kill the enemy.

[Guillermo]

It would, but the scary thing is France has nuclear weapons.

Do we want a nuclear armed Islamic Republic of Al-Franceera?

The Problem Isn't the "Imposition of Sharia Law; the Problem Is,--how to UN-IMPOSE "Sharia Law," when a Formerly Free Society discovers that "Sharia Law" is a form of Totalitarianism not Unlike "Naziism!"

For Some unknown Reason, Many Societies,--used to "Western Freedoms",--are UNAWARE of the PROFOUND LOSS of "Freedom" under Restrictive, Muslim "Sharia Law!!"

I Guess, "Western Societies," LONG ACCUSTOMED to "Religious Freedom," can NO LONGER COMPREHEND a "Religiously Intolerant Society!"

STRICT, WAHHABI ISLAM, is INCOMPATIBLE with Western Civilization.

So "It's Conflict or Capitulation."

'Guess "Which Way" America--& Brittian--will go........!!

There is NO WAY our Free Societies will EVER "Capitulate to" ANY "Theocracy!"

The SAD FACT REMAINS, that MOST of the Wealth & Innovation in our World has Come From our Free Societies--YET the "Wahhabi's" are OPPOSED to ANY & ALL "Free Thought!!"

Can't ANYONE in the "Islamic World" Understand that "Islam" must EMBRACE "Free Thought,"--or Perish--& Take It's "Captive Cultures" DOWN with It??

"Islam" either GROWS & Expands with Human Knowlege, or It Lies on the "Ash-heap" of Human History.

Most of "Us" are Tired of trying to Defend "Islam."

If "Islam" is Incapable of Producing a Body of Ideas aimed at the Furthurance of Human Culture, then it is a "Cult" of False Ideas.

"History will Tell."

Meanwhile, "Human History Moves On",--& "Islam" has offered LITTLE in the current Turmoil of Human History.

Time Will Tell!

began inviting muslims into their countries to fill employment voids that their own citizens did not want.

Actually, I believe that Europe started importing labor in the early 1950's due to manpower shortages after WWII. They started bringing in muslims from their old colonial countries, ie France from algeria, Spain from morrocco, Germany from turkey etc.

The first generation integrated fine, but Europe couldn't/wouldn't close the gates and the 2nd and subsequent generations started to not assimilate until the situation exists as it is now.
