Honesty About Ideology Of Islam, Not Candles And Teddy Bears
When will Europe admit that it has a problem? It has invited in countless immigrants who have no desire of joining Western society.
Giulio Meotti writes at Gatestone:
This long and sad list is the human harvest of Islamic terrorism on Europe's soil:Madrid: 191. London: 58. Amsterdam: 1. Paris: 148. Brussels: 36. Copenhagen: 2. Nice: 86. Stockholm: 5. Berlin: 12. Manchester: 22. And it does not take into account the hundreds of Europeans butchered abroad, in Bali, in Sousse, in Dakka, in Jerusalem, in Sharm el Sheikh, in Istanbul.
But after 567 victims of terror, Europe still does not understand. Just the first half of 2017 has seen terror attacks attempted in Europe every nine days on average. Yet, despite this Islamist offensive, Europe is fighting back with teddy bears, candles, flowers, vigils, Twitter hashtags and cartoons.
...Europe has still not realized that the terror which struck its metropolis was a war, and not the mistake of a few disturbed people who misunderstood the Islamic religion. Today there are more British Muslims in the ranks of ISIS than in the British Armed Forces. According with Alexandre Mendel, author of the book Jihadist France, there are more violent Salafists in France than regular soldiers in the Swedish army.
Thirteen years after the attack on Madrid's trains, Europe's leaders read from the same script: hiding the images of pain, so as not to scare anyone; concealing that the Islamist attackers are "made in Europe" insiders; repeating that "Islam is a religion of peace"; being prisoners inside our liberties; watching them removed one-by-one while we proclaiming that "we will not change our lifestyle"; and eradicating the fundamentals of our civilization -- freedom of expression, freedom of thought, freedom of movement, freedom of religion -- the entire basis, in fact, of the Judeo-Christian West.
Radical Islam is the greatest threat to Europe since Nazism and Soviet Communism.
Honesty about this is our best shot of doing anything about it.
Oh, and it isn't "radical Islam" that's the danger. It is Islam, a violent, totalitarian ideology that tells its medieval-brained followers that they get a fast-pass to heaven if only they take out a few infidels.
For a little bit about Islam, here's an excerpt from TROP about the Quran and Hadith, Mohammed and Allah:
The suras of the Quran can be grouped into two distinct periods in Muhammad's life. There is the earlier "Meccan" period, when Muhammad had little to say about violence or "fighting in Allah's way." Not only did he not have the power to force Islam on others at the time, but he was borrowing heavily from Judeo-Christian religious tradition.Then there are the "Medinan" suras and later, in which the commands to violent Jihad and intolerance increase corresponding to Muhammad's military strength. The bloody 9th Sura (the Verse of the Sword) is one of the very last to be handed down by the prophet of Islam, and it came at a time when the Muslims had already achieved power over their neighbors, forcing into exile those who would not convert.
Most of the Quran is about unbelievers and much of this is devoted to their earthly or divine punishment. People of other religions are said to be "cursed by Allah." The more tolerant verses (though popular with contemporary apologists) are less numerous than the later, more violent ones. According to the Quran itself, the later verses abrogate those that precede them (Allah doesn't change his word, 6:115, but he does "substitute" it when he comes up with something better, 2:106 16:101).
It is important to note that the Quran does not contain a single original moral value. However, it is the only major religion to do away with the rule of general benevolence found in all others - including Christianity's "Golden Rule." Instead of advocating universal love and charity, the Quran distinguishes between believers and unbelievers, drawing a sharp distinction in the value of each group and laying the foundation for discrimination and dehumanization (see Is the Quran Hate Propaganda?).
Those who abandon themselves to what the Quran literally says generally become a danger to those around them who are not like-minded. Other Muslims often maintain a discreet loyalty to a predetermined moral framework, around which they mold, filter or ignore inconvenient passages of the Quran - while placing disproportionate emphasis on limited fragments of earlier verses that appear to project a more peaceful message.
The Quran repeatedly stresses Muhammad's personal claim to being a prophet. Those who accept it are morally superior to those who don't. Muslims will receive the highest reward in paradise while the non-believers will suffer egregious torment in hell - as well as a "painful punishment" in this life.
The proclamation that Muhammad is God's prophet happens to be the only original idea in the Quran. It is supported through circular reasoning: Muhammad is Allah's prophet because Allah says so - and we know that Allah says so because that is what Muhammad says. (It isn't hard to see why the early Muslims had to kill a lot of people to get their point across).
In case you find yourself in the killing fields at present, it might be wise to learn the shahada, the Muslim declaration of faith:
"ASH-HADU ANLA ELAHA ILLA-ALLAH WA ASH-HADU ANNA MOHAMMADAN RASUL-ALLAH".The English translation is :
"I bear witness that there is no deity (none truly to be worshipped) but, Allah, and I bear witness that Mohammad is the messenger of Allah."
Yes, it's sick we have to think this way, but hey, everybody come on in and we'll hope for the best.

Imagine if liberals fought as hard against radical Islam as they do against Trump.

Did it break your heart when the guys from both the chess club AND the football team started making fun of Bieber, too?

No, it was when the guys from juvi started doing it. That was so uncalled for, the nasty things they said about my idol.
It's becoming apparent to the people of Great Britain that their leaders don't take the threat seriously. The multi-culti project is so important to the ruling class that they aren't going to imperil it by taking some action that could be seen as nationalist. And besides, the Islamists might chop their heads off. They don't have to worry about the punters from Staffordshire doing that.

Comey confirmed that Trump wasn't under investigation, and that Trump did not obstruct justice. Nothing Comey said contradicted what Trump said.
