Radical mufti not welcome in The Netherlands
Radio Netherlands ^ | April 20 2008

The Hague - The former grand mufti of Jerusalem, Ikrima Sabri, is still not welcome in the Netherlands. Dutch Foreign Minister Maxime Verhagen has made clear via the Dutch consulate in Ramallah that if the mufti decides to come to the Netherlands, he will be detained and deported immediately.

The Palestinian Muslim cleric is regarded as controversial because of his radical speeches against Israel.

A Turkish organisation in the Dutch town of Zaandam has invited Ikrima Sabri for a conference. Last year the mufti was asked to come to Rotterdam, but he declined the invitation. At the time Mr Sabri was told that he would not be allowed to enter the Netherlands.

Glad to see that sort of thing happening. I hope it’s not too little, too late.

Have you not heard of the Grand Mufti of Washington D.C? If we do not watch out this coming election, we may just see him occupy part of the WH and visitors may have to remove their shoes before entering the building.

No I have not heard of this nut case.

At first, I thought you were talking about a giant horse muffin left on the street after the parade passed.

Liberals Are More Dangerous To American Than All The Worlds Terrorist Combined, No Matter What Religion They Believe In Or Not.

God Help America If Obama Is Elected.

Obama ? He looks to skinny to be a Grand Mufti. Maybe he’d make Sharpton Honorary Grand Mufti he’s got the frame for it.

“Liberals Are More Dangerous To American Than All The Worlds Terrorist Combined..”

You know why don’t you? Because they have the benefit of the protection by the 1st Amendment. That’s why they dare to act boldly in the destruction of this country. These people are basically cowards and if it wasn’t for the 1st Amendment they would all cower in their ratholes.

The big issue is demographics. The muslims in the European countries are having kids faster than the native population. I heard from Mark Steyn that in some countries 45% of the youth are muslims.

I don't know how you're going to stop the tide of population when so many are already living there.

Soon we will see muslim political parties in European countries electing local representatives to local posts and eventually parliment.

In 25 years, european culture will be indistinguishable and Mosques will fill the skyline.

There are not enough words in the dictionary to define how I really feel about those liberals who enjoy the freedoms of our country and yet can conjure up so much hate for those who protect their right to hold or spew that hatred.

It seems that this country took a turn for the worst when we did away with the draft and service to our country by all those 18 and over.

Anti-Christian, anti-American Vomit spewing punks like Maher might have a different take on the value of their rights had they served a while defending those rights.
