Barcelona Chief Rabbi Urges Jews to Leave Spain: 'This Place Is Lost'
HAARETZ ^ | Aug 18, 2017

Commenting on deadly attacks in Catalonia, the chief rabbi of that region in Spain said that his community is doomed, partly because of radical Islam and authorities’ alleged reluctance to confront it.

Rabbi Meir Bar-Hen has been encouraging his congregants to leave Spain, which he called during an interview with JTA a “hub of Islamist terror for all of Europe,” for years before the attacks Thursday and Friday, he said. At least 13 victims and five suspected terrorists were killed in Barcelona and the resort town of Cambrils, 75 miles south of the city.

(Snip)

Part of the problem exposed by the attacks, Bar-Hen said, is the presence of a large Muslim community with “radical fringes.” Once these people are “living among you,” he said of terrorists and their supporters, “it’s very difficult to get rid of them. They only get stronger.” He also said this applied to Europe as a whole. “Europe is lost,” he said....

Islam has been a threat to every one else since Mohammed launched his first jihad in 622 A.D.

If you run, you’re eventually going to run out of places to run to. Some day you will have to choose to fight or die. Might as well fight today.

Where the heck are you going to GO? The invasion is everywhere at once. They’re in the perimeter, and they were invited. Complete insanity.

Hope the Rabbi doesn’t get arrested for hate speech.

They’re going to Israel! For the last few years, France has become the largest source of new Israeli immigration. Other Euro-weenie nations with “Refugees Welcome” insane policies are soon to follow. Other posters have said “stand and fight” - Western European Jews, disarmed like most of their fellow citizens, are extremely vulnerable. In Israel, that situation is drastically different. I very much feel for the Christians in W. Europe - while they’ve basically abandoned Christianity over the last several years, the Jihadists are coming after them too. Where do they go??

This rabbi has a LOT of balls to openly say that. If he didn’t have a bounty on his head before, he certainly has one now.

“ALL EUROPEAN LIFE DIED IN AUSCHWITZ”
by Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez(*)

I walked down the street in Barcelona, and suddenly discovered a
terrible truth – Europe died in Auschwitz.

We killed six million Jews and replaced them with 20 million Muslims. In Auschwitz we burned a culture, thought, creativity, talent. We destroyed the chosen people, truly chosen, because they produced great and wonderful people who changed the world. The contribution of this people is felt in all areas of life: science, art, international trade, and above all, as the conscience of the world.

These are the people we burned. And under the pretense of tolerance, and because we wanted to prove to ourselves that we were cured of the disease of racism, we opened our gates to 20 million Muslims, who brought us stupidity and ignorance, religious extremism and lack of tolerance, crime and poverty due to an unwillingness to work and support their families with pride.

They have turned our beautiful Spanish cities into the third world,
drowning in filth and crime. Shut up in the apartments they receive
free from the government, they plan the murder and destruction of
their naive hosts. And thus, in our misery, we have exchanged culture for fanatical hatred, creative skill for destructive skill,
intelligence for backwardness and superstition.

We have exchanged the pursuit of peace of the Jews of Europe and their talent for hoping for a better future for their children, their
determined clinging to life because life is holy, for those who pursue death, for people consumed by the desire for death for themselves and others, for our children and theirs.

What a terrible mistake was made by miserable Europe.

I believe the “leaders” understand and have nefarious intentions.

There is still a town in Spain that every year has a celebration of defeating Islam. Even burns a Mohammad effigy at the end. Too bad the rest of Spain has forgot the last time Moes Mafia was in charge.
