Anger at Europe's far right 'anti-Islam' conference
The Times ^ | September 18, 2008 | David Crossland

A German far right group has stirred Muslim anger worldwide by holding a three-day "Anti-Islamisation Conference" to protest against the construction of mosques and Muslim immigration. Prominent members of Europe's far right, including French "Front National" leader Jean-Marie le Pen and Belgian far-right politician Filip Dewinter, have said they will attend the meeting in Cologne which is aimed at forging a European alliance against "Islamisation." The conference will include a rally in the centre of Cologne tomorrow which police say could lead to clashes with left-wing groups that plan a counter-demonstration. Trade unions, churches and other groups have also announced plans to protest against the conference. The conference organiser is a local protest group called "Pro-Cologne" which campaigned against the city's recent decision to allow the construction of a large new mosque with two 55-metre tall minarets. Around 330,000 immigrants live in Cologne, about a third of the city's population. "Mosques are shooting out of the ground like mushrooms, the muezzin call and headscarves are flooding our streets," Pro-Cologne said on its website.

The article doesn’t mention Wilders or BNP, so this sounds like a small-scale deal. Nothing major.

German far right group has stirred Muslim anger worldwide by

Other than the killing of innocents, what else makes muslims happy?

Murdering scum calling everyone else wrong.

Islam should be banned. The reading of the Koran creates homicidal manics.

The cause may be right, but the organizers are morons. They discredit themselves by hosting the bozos from the FPÖ (who offered asylum for Saddam and hosted Mullahs and are a bunch of assorted antisemitic, antiamerican Neo-Fascists). Not to mention that French clown LePen... It probably saved their reputation not to have hosted the BNP, which is probably the most low-life thug party in Europe.

Let's be frank, legitimate anti-Islamism has a serious problem in Europe and the PC left and mainstream is a chief reason for this. They criminalize protest against islamism and push legitimate conservatives out of the window. All that will be left are the Neo-Nazi populist nutjobs. The issue is far too important to be left to them.

Around 330,000 immigrants live in Cologne, about a third of the city's population.

"Mosques are shooting out of the ground like mushrooms, the muezzin call and headscarves are flooding our streets," Pro-Cologne said on its website. It said 150 "politicians and publicists" from all over Europe and 1,500 other participants will attend the conference at which it plans to launch a petition "against the Islamisation of our cities."

Germany may be forced eventually to move toward aggressive tactics to stop the invasion. Eliminating terror treats ought to be a prime goal. Of course, 'enlightened leadership' claims they must adapt to this invasion. Complex cultural pressures abound. Germans want to resist. 'Ein Folk, Ein Reich' still rings in the peoples memories. Regardless of the politically correct words the elitists spout.

Small wonder . . .

Does Germany have its own Michael Savage these days ________ ?

“far right” in Europe means “Moderate Republican” in the US.

Were I in Europe I’d attend this rally.
Some nut jobs, but it is important for the mooselimbs to know that everyone is not thrilled to see them move in.
Ya want a bunch from the 6th century to move in next door and try to force you to convert to their maniacal religion or they’ll kill ya?

“so it begins...but too little too late.”

Yup. Europe is finished, mainly because Europeans ceased believing Europe was worth fighting for.
