The more I learn about Switzerland the sanest among the Euros they seem to be.

This is huge. This is great. It’s not just a slapdown of muzzies. It’s a slapdown of tearfilled liberal sucka$$es.

I listened to a story about this 2 days ago on NPR (sorry!) and you should have heard the weeping and wailing of the leftist “journalist” how this is soooooooooooo unfair... but don’t worry, said the Swiss leftists... there’s noooooooooooo way this is going to pass.

It passed.

It’s wonderful.

Commentators had said the country risked international pariah status and a backlash across the Muslim world if a ’yes’ vote was achieved.

If the exit polls prove correct it will be a huge shock and Switzerland risks international pariah status and a backlash across the Muslim world.

This is unbelievable! A direct repeat in the next paragraph!

It's like the writer is BRAGGING:

I. Am. A. Robot. I. Repeat. What. The. Commentators. Said.

The stark "stop" posters depicting a Muslim woman in a burka against the backdrop of a Swiss flag studded with missile shaped black minarets have been banned in many towns.
Ohhhhhhh. So BANNING THE MESSAGE didn't have it's desired effect.

Isn't that a shame.

Boo f'n woo.

The reaction to the apparently harmless request...
Boy. No editorializing in THIS story, is there?

...a backlash across the Muslim world if a ’yes’ vote was achieved.

In other words, more rioting, mayhem, murder, rape, destruction, etc. I love it when MooSlime demands are denied. Aren't Swiss citizens armed? F*** you, MooSlimes!!!

Both the government and parliament had rejected the initiative

The government and parliament is completely out of touch. They have tried to keep the Swiss populist party in a little box to keep up the appearance of political correctness.

The idea was put forward by the populist, conservative Swiss People’s Party, which is wary of what it sees as the islamization of Swiss society. Euronews filmed a live debate between two figures at the heart of the argument:
Link to video, and transcript...

http://www.euronews.net/2009/11/21/debate-rages-over-swiss-minarets/

“Let’s talk about minarets. The Turkish prime minister Erdogan said that minarets are bayonets, it’s well known, don’t you remember? Erdogan was quoting a poet who directly compared the domes of mosques with soldiers’ helmets. He was comparing practising Muslims with soldiers. It’s not really a pleasant image. It’s a symbol that shows that at the heart of the argument there is political will to take power. It’s about the desire to ignore democracy and to establish, step by step, something completely different: Sharia law. And that we will not accept.”

I’m sure the reporter missed what was said here. The very last sentence.
“They call us terrorists. They call us Taliban, so many labels all wrong. They insult us. We love this country, almost more than our own. Our children were born here.”
They don’t actually wish to assimilate. They want to have their own countries within a country prior to assimilating the host country.
“almost more than our own.”

This is a great day for the Swiss! Well Done!!

And yesterday, the incomparable Swiss Didier Cuche completely controlled the opening downhill of the World Cup season Saturday (Nov. 28) at Lake Louise, Canada. Cuche, a 35 year old veteran of the White Circus was masterful in riding to a .44 of a second margin and his second win of the season.

"This minaret is a symbol of conquest and power which marks the will to introduce Sharia law as has happened in some other European cities. We will not accept that," said Ulrich Schueler, an SVP politician and leader of the "stop" minaret campaign.

Hmm, banning a minaret is not the same as banning Sharia law. In hiding minarets, you've done nothing but hidden the mindset from public view which is still there and growing.

"They call us terrorists. They call us Taliban, so many labels all wrong. They insult us. We love this country, almost more than our own. Our children were born here."

And there it is. They admit they haven't assimilated but have kept themselves apart. Which country would they defend? Not Switzerland.

This is kind of like North Carolina in 1978, 1984, 1990 & 1996. Out of nowhere the media’s bogeyman (Jesse Helms in this case) pulls through and doesn’t make the Left’s day.

Earlier this year Langenthal's 750 Muslims asked for planning permission to add a minaret, 30 feet high, to their mosque in a town with 11 churches and 14,500 inhabitants.

The reaction to the apparently harmless request has polarised Switzerland and crossed borders to feed into British, French, Dutch and Austrian fears over Islam and national identity.

"This minaret is a symbol of conquest and power which marks the will to introduce Sharia law as has happened in some other European cities. We will not accept that," said Ulrich Schueler, an SVP politician and leader of the "stop" minaret campaign.

A Good Start...

Awww. I used to love those things. Some kind of chocolate-ish outside with some kind of creamy-foamy inside. I guess the Swiss don’t want anyone else’s chocolate coming in. I think Nabisco made them.
