Indien men buiten een godsdienst geweld, haat en discriminatie verkondigt, wordt men aangeklaagd. Een godsdienst die impliciet geweld, haat en discriminatie predikt, mag dat straffeloos doen. De meeste politici zijn te laf om zich aan het onderwerp te wagen. Op dit moment staat de 'wet van godsdienstwaanzin' boven alle andere wetten. Van scheiding van 'geloof en staat' is al tijden geen sprake meer. Het is de dictatuur der godsdienstwaanzinnigen die regeert.
Rest my Case
Analysis of the Dutch discussions
Remarkably in this discussion is the opinion of a lot of people that we are dealing with just a small group of extremists and that we should keep quiet, because otherwise we will drive a lot more muslims into extremism. It's just a small group and they are being watched by secret service, and for the rest: no problems. An article in the Dutch paper AD falls into this category, coming from the head of 'fighting terrorism' in The Netherlands.(see English translation) Also a column in another paper with the title: "islam debate: Leave the faith alone" (keep belief out of the discussion). How stupid and uninformed can one get? This is also (but I don't have to tell you this) an opinion that is widespread: that belief has nothing to do with all the problems and dangers, it is all about poverty, immigration problems, cultural differences, etc.
Anyway, there is a lot going on, but it seems to go nowhere. Some people are trying to convince others of the inherent danger of islam for our free society, and others are just closing their eyes, no: they believe in the self regulating pluralistic society in which freedom and democracy will ultimately and automatically win, just because we are all people seeking for the benefit of one another and all (if we know it or not) searching for happiness and the best life for everyone on this planet. They will be surprised ... In parliament Geert Wilders (the one Joustra is speaking about in the article) is keeping the islam issue on the agenda. He does it in a somewhat blunt way and, in my opinion, to confrontational (people are almost immediately in defence when they feel so strongly opposed, and you should try to get them on your side), but he stays on the issue. He suggested to ban the Quran, to forbid it (not very clever), and also the burqa, building of more mosques and stop immigration from Muslim countries, because the society can have no more Muslim influences: it will collapse. These all sound very much extreme right-wing and so the left is countering with more pro-islam remarks and so on. The debate though is going on, but not really on the issues itself: the inherent dangers of such a belief system for a free society. I don't know where this is going. A lot of Dutchmen find the words of Wilders to harsh, but also a lot more than last year will vote for him... English translation of the forementioned article:
Demonstratierecht afgenomen
STOP ISLAMISATION OF EUROPE ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! NO SHARIA HERE! DEMOCRACY NOT THEOCRACY! These are the rallying cries that people all over Europe are shouting far and wide to islamists both within Europe and in other countries who seek to impose Sharia law upon European citizens. It is not only to muslims, who seek to expand islam across the whole of Europe, that Europeans are saying "Enough" it is also to our politicians who connive with islamists to establish Sharia law by stealth. From building regulations to burial rights, the majority of Europe's population is increasingly expected to adhere to Sharia law. "Hate" laws now make it a crime to speak out against islam even though it is just another totalitarian political system. Our free speech, which has been gained over many centuries by defeating tyrannical regimes through many bloody wars, is now being removed solely to protect muslims from being offended. Nobody has the right to not be offended. SIOE is a Pan-European movement determined to not merely stopping the surreptitious islamisation of Europe, but reversing it. The first step in this reversal is a march comprising people, from many European countries, all demanding that all non-islamic European nations remain non-islamic and a halt to encroachment of Sharia law. Anders Gravers (Founder of SIOE Denmark and leader of the political party SIAD) said: "We do not believe in the concept of 'moderate muslims'. The evidence points to islam being the opposite of moderate. The heart of Sunni islam is Saudi Arabia and the centre of Shia islam is Iran. No rational person can describe these two countries as 'moderate'; at least not when compared to European values. We now have children in Danish schools being forced to eat Halal meat so that Muslim pupils are not offended. What next? Are Danish women to be stoned to death for being raped as they are in Iran? Or are people to be beheaded for leaving islam as they are in Saudi Arabia? No! We will not allow Europe to become a huge Saudi Arabia or Iran" Dr. Udo Ulfkotte (Founder and president of the non-profit charity "Pax Europa") said: "We clearly feel the pressure of islamisation in Germany. German police and courts are more tolerant to muslims than to non-muslims. One of the highest German courts (Bundesgerichtshof) has just downgraded the punishment for islamists who publicly declare and ask for violent Jihad in Europe. Unacceptably, some judges have quoted the Quran and not German law in court cases. Polygamy, once illegal in Germany, is now permitted only for Muslim men, who may even claim state benefits for their wives. German life is changing to appease muslims. For example, Christian crosses in our public institutions are being removed and there are separate swimming times for muslims in supposedly public pools (which non-muslims' taxes pay for). German muslims demand a quota for "positive reports" from the German media, but they kick out the religious group Bahai from an inter-religious conference because they refuse to accept them within the "dialogue". All this was once described as hypocrisy, but is now actually promoted by our feeble politicians. Stephen Gash (Founder of SIOE England) said: "Appeasement of islamists has become ridiculous. Non-muslims are expected to be buried facing Mecca and to sit on toilets facing away from Mecca because cemeteries and new homes have to conform to Muslim sensitivities. Toy pigs are banned from offices and Christmas lights must now be called 'Winter Festival lights' so as not to offend muslims. None of these oppressive measures were even contemplated when Jews were the only ones who could possibly be offended by pigs and 'Merry Christmas'. Absurdly, to criticise islam results in accusations of 'racism'. Well, I've always considered racism as being the lowest form of human stupidity, but islamophobia to be the height of common sense." Charlotte Westergaard (SIAD board member) said: "The biggest danger comes from our own politicians who promote islamic values at the expense of our own values. The way things are going all European non-Muslim citizens will be paying the Jizzya tax to muslims as they did during the days of the Ottoman Empire. Of course the politicians believe they will be exempt - until the local Imam knocks on their door."
