Something Rotten in Norway

Written By Daniel Greenfield On August 1, 2011 @ 12:22 am In Daily Mailer,FrontPage

Anders Breivik’s attack on the youth camp of the Norwegian Labour Party has its most obvious precedent in the Maalot Massacre when Palestinian Muslim gunmen attacked an Israeli elementary school, taking over a hundred children hostage, and then using automatic weapons to kill as many of them as they could. But the link between Maalot and Utoya is more than casual. The Workers Youth League which ran the camp had a long history of supporting the same kind of terrorists who had perpetrated the Maalot Massacre.

Lars Gule, is the Secretary General of the Norwegian Humanist Association, and a defender of Muslims having the right to discriminate against women and gays. (The two are not a contradiction in Norway.) He was the leader of the Workers Youth League at the University of Bergen– and a DFLP terrorist.

The DFLP were the perpetrators of the Maalot Massacre. And two years after that attack, Lars Gule was trained by the DFLP and dispatched to Israel via Norway with explosives hidden in the covers of his books.

“The Suspect had made ​​it known to his employers that he wanted to take human life…  to strengthen Palestinian fighting spirit and morale,” Norwegian police records noted.

None of this impeded Gule’s career in any way. He went on to the University of Bergen and served as the head of the Workers Youth League, the organization that was targeted in the Utoya attack. Today he is a prominent figure on the left.

How can we make sense of this? Glenn Beck compared the Workers Youth League camp to a Hitler Youth camp. He was close, but not entirely right. The roots of the Workers Youth League are actually Communist.

Norway’s Labour Party was a member of the Communist International. The Workers Youth League was formed by the merger of the Left Communist Youth League and the Socialist Youth League of Norway. We often use “Communist” as a pejorative– but in this case the Utoya camp, literally was a Communist youth camp.

The day before the massacre, Norwegian Foreign Minister Gahre-Store visited the camp and was greeted with banners calling for a boycott of Israel, and Gahre-Store responded with an Anti-Israel speech to cheers from the campers. There is something ominous about such indoctrination of hate. It is not quite on the level of the Hitler Youth, but neither is it a world apart.

In the 1930′s, Germans were encouraged to blame their problems on the Jews. In this decade, Norwegians are encouraged to blame their problems on the Jews. There are few children of workers at the Workers Youth League camp. They are for the most part the children of the party, the sons and daughters of bureaucrats and party leaders, training the next generation to perpetrate the Labour Party state.

Breivik came from that same background. The son of the left wing elite. And if his parents’ marriage had not collapsed, with the young boy allotting a share of the blame to the Labour Party, he would likely have a comfortable spot in the socialist state. Breivik may have turned against his roots, but the idea that terroristic violence is a legitimate solution is one that he could have easily picked up on the left.

 Gahre-Store may have been greeted with a banner calling for the boycott of Israel, but he would never have been greeted with one calling for a boycott of terrorists. And indeed if there is an Islamist terrorist group that Gahre-Store doesn’t support, it’s hard to find. Gahre-Store had called for negotiating with Al-Shahaab in Somalia, an Al-Qaeda offshoot, he spoke with Hamas leader Khaled Mashal and called for a reconciliation with the Taliban.

Nor is the Workers Youth League call for the destruction of Israel a recent one. In the 70′s, the movement was already pushing for a One State Solution. The man who led the organization then went on to become the country’s Foreign Minister playing a key role in the Oslo Accords that turned Israel into a free fire zone for the terrorist allies of the League and the Labour Party.

Media commentators have made a great deal of Breivik’s radicalization, but despite his death toll, his radicalization seems to be an isolated event in comparison to the magnitude of radicalization at Utoya. If Breivik’s violence and bigotry is to be condemned– shouldn’t the species of violence and bigotry at Utoya be condemned as well?

The left can hold up Utoya as an example, but there are a legion of counterexamples. Nor the least of which is Lars Gule, traveling with explosives in his backpack, on a journey that took him from DFLP terrorist to Workers Youth League leader.

And behind that is the larger string of DFLP and Fatah atrocities. And that of other terrorist groups around the world. The Utoya attack cannot be viewed as an isolated event. It must be seen within the context of support for terrorism as a valid tactic. An idea that goes back to the Marxist roots of the Labour Party and which is embodied in its political support for terrorism. And its manifest hostility to the victims of terrorism.

Breivik and Lars Gule had their common origins in a country dominated by a political left which sees violence as a legitimate tool of political change, while dehumanizing its victims. Norway’s ambassador to Israel carefully distinguished between the Utoya attack and the terrorist attacks on Israelis. The latter would go away if Israel just followed Gahre-Store’s example and negotiated with Hamas.

But what Norway’s political elite failed to grasp is that the genie of terrorism cannot be kept in a lamp, to emerge only at your command. Once you legitimize terrorism as a tool of political change, you lose the ability to determine who will make use of it. Breivik followed the example of Lars Gule, that of the Marxist terrorists, whose intellectual legacy is the black tar that seeps through the painted walls of Norwegian foreign policy.

The hatred and terrorist collaboration on display at Utoya was the symptom of a larger disease.     “Something is rotten in the state of Denmark,” Marcellus proclaims in Hamlet. It’s equally rotten in Norway.

Breivik was one expression of that rottenness. But there are many others. Like Lars Gule, and his vision of a secular atheism living side by side with bigoted Islamism. Or Gahre-Store following in the footsteps of countless left wing foreign ministers by opening Norway’s doors to every Islamist terrorist group out there. Or the children being groomed to become the future leaders of Norway taught to hate as fervently as their Fatah associates.

Islamophobia vs Anti-Semitism in Germany

Multiculturalism has found another group to victimize. I have written many essays regarding the deleterious effects that have resulted from the multicuturalists encouraged importation of hoardes of muslims has had in the UK - particularly British women and children.

My definition of Multiculturalism:

Multiculturalism - rather than being based on mutual respect - is a parasitic ideology that encourages immigrants, to not assimilate and to aggressively insist the invaded Western countries be subservient to them and their cultures. In my opinion, multiculturalism demands 'reverse assimilation' or the inevitable loss of the indigenous culture as native populations are brainwashed, goaded, shamed and threatened to place all other cultures above their own. 

Recently Angela Merkel spoke - what is obvious to even the casual observer of German/European life - Multiculturalism has been "utterly failed" and the cause of much strife in that Country.

But who are the victims of the utter failure of Multiculturalism in Germany (and elsewhere)?

Is it muslims and their much touted and overstated (myth of) Islamophobia? 

NO!

Once again in Germany it is the JEWS that are the true victims.  Anti-Semitic acts are on the rise in Germany.

Is it any wonder with a huge influx of muslims - many if not most who are outwardly anti-Semitic - going so far as to deny the existence of the Holocaust - would cause problems for Germany's Jewish population?

Yet muslims along with their German apologists and cheerleaders are ironically and erroneously equating 'Islamophobia" with Anti-Semitism.

Article in full:

Prof. Chesler: Anti-Semitism Cannot be Equated with Islamophobia

 by Professor Phyllis Chesler

Even as Chancellor Angela Merkel pronounces the failure of “multiculturalism” in Germany, the English-language German newspaper reporter, Marc Young, writing for the English-language German news at The Local, proclaims that “bigotry towards Muslims is the new anti-Semitism.”

 As the author of a book with the title The New Anti-Semitism (with an edition in German), allow me to remind Mr. Young that one of the things that is “new” about this most ancient of hatreds is that it is pandemic in the Islamic world and in Muslim communities in the West and that the multicultural relativists in the world’s universities, media, and political leadership, are collaborating with it in the name of “political correctness.”

Thus, what both Young and those who run the state-subsidized Center for Research on Anti-Semitism at the University of Berlin have learned from the Nazi Holocaust is that Europeans should not discriminate against Muslims as they once did against Jews.
 
German scholar Clemens Heni strongly disagrees:
 
“There is no other prejudice or form of racism which you can compare to this centuries-long hatred (anti-Semitism) which has no real justification. If you look at Islam today, there is a point to Islamophobia because Jihadists say, ‘We want to kill the unbelievers.’ Jews never said that. Because as a German I have a responsibility to deal with my own history, and if I see that other Germans want to downplay anti-Semitism and to minimize the threat of Islamic jihad and other forms of anti-Zionism—I think there is something deeply wrong, they didn’t learn the lesson from the Holocaust, they are even downplaying the Holocaust itself.
 
“I think it’s really important to focus on anti-Semitism as a specific phenomenon. This was the subject of my first article in the Journal for the Study of Anti-Semitism. Most people in Germany and in academia focus on anti-Semitism as one prejudice among many like racism, colonialism, imperialism, sexism, whatever. That was the reason why Robert Wistrich, the leading historian of anti-Semitism, was never invited to the Berlin Center for Research on anti-Semitism for the last 20 years. Usually an institute, well-funded, with hundreds of thousands of Euros a year—they have to invite the leading scholars. They didn’t invite him. One must ask why.”
 
Heni has paid a punishing price for his beliefs and values. He has failed the test for political correctness, both in Berlin and at Israel’s own leading “post-Zionist” universities which have, so far, refused to hire him as a professor of German history who specializes in German anti-Semitism—when such positions have actually been available.
 
Ironic, yes?
 
Heni has worked with Robert Wistrich in Jerusalem and with Charles Small at the Yale Initiative for the Interdisciplinary Study of Anti-Semitism. He has written two books about anti-Semitism in Germany: Antisemitism in Germany: Preliminary Studies of a “Heartfelt” Relationship and Antisemitism as a Specific Phenomenon, and co-written the book German Middle Eastern Studies and Islamism After 9/11. He remains an independent scholar without a tenured position.
 
In a recent interview, Heni explained to me: 
“The big controversy goes back to the conference in 2008 that equated Islamophobia and anti-Semitism, literally saying that the Muslims of today are in the same situation that the Jews were in during the late 19th century. And I’m a scholar of German history, I’ve written two books about that topic, including one about the late-19th century, so I know a little bit about what happened at that time. We had specific parties dedicated to spreading anti-Semitism, and right now we don’t have a single party spreading Islamophobia, saying ‘we don’t want any Muslims in our country,’ or that they should be killed.
 
So on the other hand, the Center says that after 9/11, we had an increase in hostility toward Muslims, which is a strange thing because Mr. Benz, the head of the center, was saying that after the killing of Theo van Gogh in the Netherlands in 2004, we had an increase in hostility toward Islam. He did not say that he was sorry about what happened to Mr. van Gogh, which was one of the most powerful political acts of killing in the last decade in Europe because it was a very Islamist, jihadist action.”
 
This precise European (and therefore post-Zionist Israeli) view of anti-Semitism was on display in a recent article in the New York Times about a new Hitler exhibit in Berlin. The article is titled “Hitler Exhibit Explores a Wider Circle of Guilt.” Those who were chosen to comment on the wisdom of such a display equated the persecution and extermination of Europe’s Jews with what is now going on in Europe vis a vis Europe’s Muslims. Thus, the University of Berlin’s Center for Research on Anti-Semitism and the post-Zionist Israeli Academy share the New York Times view that a hostile, anti-integration, pro-jihadic Muslim population in Europe is the same as a highly assimilated and/or pacifist Jewish population was in Europe in the past.
 
Leaping right over what is specific to the extermination of Europe’s Jews, Germans, as well as other Europeans today, are generalizing that tragic and unique history so as to justify the absorption of a far more dangerous and increasingly radicalized Muslim population.
 
Yes, of course: Germany welcomed “foreign workers” from Turkey whom they either never expected to stay or whom they assumed would be so grateful for a western life that they would happily integrate and become more German than Turkish. And yes, it is true: Germany has a history of racism towards Jews, gypsies, “foreigners.” However, today, Germany and the rest of Europe faces a far different challenge.
 
I wish to acknowledge the fine work of Esther’s Islam in Europe blog, and the assistance of Nathan Bloom in the preparation of this article.

 

The Student Thought Police have jackbooted into Eau Claire Wisconsin

The Thought Police have jackbooted into Eau Claire Wisconsin ripping up the First Amendment  to the United States Constitution as they march en force.

"A UW-Eau Claire student group is worried the political opinions of a tavern owner are fostering a hateful atmosphere toward Muslims at his popular Water Street bar." -See article below

The victim/offender (of voicing political opinions) is Mr. Jed Hart; owner of The Pickle tavern.  Mr Hart's 'egregious' offense? A unproven statement that the Thought Police have deemed to be "worrisome" speech or (myth of)  Islamophobic.

 (Mr. Hart) said comments he made against terrorism were misquoted and that he didn't say anything disparaging about a religion. "It wasn't an anti-Muslim comment, it was an anti-terrorism comment," he said. "When it comes to Muslims, Catholics, Jews — none of that's on the plate. It's all about terrorism." -See article below

 Mr Hart's has made his own stance on the subject clear on his web sites:

"Hart said his views are not geared toward a specific faith or nationality, just against terrorism. "It's people that don't like America," he said. Hart's website — which can be found at alwaysremember912.com and saveanamericankillaterrorist.com — includes a timeline showing 15 terrorist acts going back to 1983. It focuses on incidents that killed Americans — including several al-Qaida attacks, but also notes the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing of a federal building by Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols. "- See article below

Nevertheless the University of Wisconsin -Eau Claire 'Students for Undemocratic Thought Harassment'  have deemed themselves judge, jury and executioner and have proceeded on their crusade to besmirch, censor and punish Jeb Hart...and others:

"Senior Allison Shilling, director of the Student Life and Diversity Commission, said the current effort is aimed at gathering testimony from people who witnessed discrimination at any campus-area tavern, not specifically The Pickle."

Taking it even further:

"In a letter sent in April to The Pickle, attorney Harry Hertel wrote on behalf of the Student Life and Diversity Commission, requesting the anti-Muslim behavior be addressed in sensitivity training for management and possibly a letter of apology sent to the commission."-See article below

Yes these totalitarian teens want Mr. Hart to apologize (for what? free speech? civil rights?) and attend "sensitivity" training. (Otherwise known as brainwashing)

What gives this group of youths the self appointed right to enforce Orwellian "worrisome" thought eradication? Undoubtedly most of whom have recently swapped being mollycoddled by their parents to being nestled in the arms of college 'pseudo' parents (deans, professors, residential assistants). Isn't free speech a benchmark of college life which past students have marched and protested to expand and protect?  Does anyone recall the student demonstrations for 'anything goes'from back in the 1960s?

So what is happening on college campuses that has infected these young minds to create such a disdain for free speech? And what guarantees that anyone should live their entire life without ever experiencing the offshoot of political correctness aka "hurt feelings"?

"Students are learning both from the campus environment and from administrators themselves that it is not only acceptable to silence opinions they deem offensive, but that doing so is a noble and appropriate act. This dangerous lesson is taught to students through powerful examples coupled with a systemic campaigning of inculcation and outright misinformation let primarily by college administrators. (from low level residence assistant up to the university counsel and presidents office)" Lukianoff, Greg. "Students Against Liberty?" New Threats To Freedom.  Ed Bellow, Adam. Templeton Press. 2010 p. 138.

Thus our very own colleges - once considered bastions of free speech have become the worst offenders of same and are producing a generation of Thought Police automatons who - in their  puffed up self-importance and learned intolerance - think it is their duty to squelch and punish any ideas contrary to their rote understanding of what is right or wrong -  as taught to them by erudite collegiate elites. Apparently the First Amendment has been altered to exclude comments about Islam.

Anti free speech actions, on US college campuses, have become such a threat there is now an organization whose main purpose is to register and investigate thought police attacks against college students (and clearly private citizens located in 'campus areas'):

The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) ....has documented hundreds of brazen violations of freedom of speech on campus." Ibid. 139.

Is it any wonder that Islamic organizations  have found fertile ground on gag-happy college campuses? Fertile ground where administrators, faculties and students are all too willing to implement the Islamic standards for free speech (or lack thereof).  How ironic such sharia standards - which these same Eau-Claire students both extol and seek to punitively enforce on Jed Hart et al- would, if implemented in greater scope,  suppress and silence these same students thoughts, actions, feminist freedoms, Lesbian and Gay rights, etc in a millenia of negative or fatal ways.

One can guarantee that Islamists/sharia law would not give a damn about 'hurt feelings".

Eau Claire tavern owner disputes allegations he's anti-Muslim

By Andrew Dowd
Eau Claire Leader-Telegram

Updated: 10/14/2010 07:14:15 AM CDT

 

A UW-Eau Claire student group is worried the political opinions of a tavern owner are fostering a hateful atmosphere toward Muslims at a popular Water Street bar.

But Jed Hart, owner of The Pickle, at 341 Water St., said comments he made against terrorism were misquoted and that he didn't say anything disparaging about a religious faith.

"It wasn't an anti-Muslim comment, it was an anti-terrorism comment," he said. "When it comes to Muslims, Catholics, Jews — none of that's on the plate. It's all about terrorism."

The Student Senate's Student Life and Diversity Commission alleged that students heard the phrase "(expletive) the Muslims" repeatedly shouted by bar management from the DJ booth at The Pickle during a spring event. Hart said he didn't use the word "Muslims" in that chant but did say the word "terrorist."

In a letter sent in April to The Pickle, attorney Harry Hertel wrote on behalf of the Student Life and Diversity Commission, requesting the anti-Muslim behavior be addressed in sensitivity training for management and possibly a letter of apology sent to the commission.

Hart remembers getting the letter in spring, showing it to his attorney, and ultimately deciding it didn't warrant action or a response.

But now members of the commission are asking additional students who personally witnessed any violence or hate speech on Water Street to come forward.

Several UW-Eau Claire students handed out small green-colored paper fliers

Wednesday on the Campus Mall referring to discrimination and hate speech at "certain student affiliated establishments on Water Street." At a table set up by the students, there were copies of the letter sent to The Pickle in spring.

Senior Allison Shilling, director of the Student Life and Diversity Commission, said the current effort is aimed at gathering testimony from people who witnessed discrimination at any campus-area tavern, not specifically The Pickle.

"We've just heard a lot of complaints about establishments on Water Street," she said. "We're using this time to gather testimonies."

Hate speech creates a concern for student safety at businesses near campus, Shilling said, especially since the university's population of international students has been growing.

Davan Raj, president of the International Student Association, noted his concern over the anti-Muslim chant that students alleged happened at The Pickle.

In a letter sent to the university's student newspaper, The Spectator, Raj wrote, "The actions of the bar owner poses a dangerous threat to our Muslim friends."

Raj continued by writing about the danger that intoxicated bargoers incensed by anti-Muslim speech could then go looking for Middle Eastern students to harm.

Hart said his views are not geared toward a specific faith or nationality, just against terrorism.

"It's people that don't like America," he said.

Hart's website — which can be found at alwaysremember912.com and saveanamericankillaterrorist.com — includes a timeline showing 15 terrorist acts going back to 1983. It focuses on incidents that killed Americans — including several al-Qaida attacks, but also notes the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing of a federal building by Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols.

Along with some of his employees serving in the Afghanistan war, Hart also has a personal connection to the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. His uncle, John Hart, who served as a father figure to Jed, died in the South Tower of the World Trade Center.

Dangerous Policy of Muslim Appeasement in the U.K.

Cross post from the excellent web site Islam Watch

Dangerous Policy of Muslim Appeasement in the U.K.

Sunday, 04 July 2010 07:21 Dr. Radhasyam Brahmachari

Thirty years ago, there were 82,000 Muslims in the UK. At present, their number has swelled to 2.5 million. In other words, there has been a 30-fold increase in Muslim population in 30 years. According to the 2001 census, total population of the United Kingdom was 58,789,194. Following table shows the increase in Muslim population in the UK from 2004 to 2008:

Table 1 : Muslims in Great Britain

Year	Population
2004	1,087,000
2005	2,017,000
2006	2,142,000
2007	2,327,000
2008	2,422,000

(Source: Lanour Force Survey)

The reader should recall that everywhere in the world, Muslim population grows much faster than that of all other religious groups. It is mainly due to their planned and deliberate rejection of family-planning measures. It has been mentioned in an earlier article that the fertility rate of Muslim immigrants now living in Europe is 8.1 children per family while the figure is as low as 1.38 for other religious groups in European Union. It may be mentioned here that in India, Muslim population, between 1991 and 2001 census, increased by 29.5%; for other religious groups, the figure was 19.5%. (Source: Census Report of India, 2001)

In the UK, natural population growth in 2008 overtook net immigration as the main contributor to population growth for the first time since 1998. England's population in mid-2008 was estimated to be 51.44 million and that of Scotland to be 5.17 million. Between 2001 and 2008, the UK population increased by an average annual rate of 0.5%. This may be compared to 0.3% per year in the period between 1991 and 2001, and 0.2% in the 1981-1991 decade. Reports on demographic change in the UK reveal another unpleasant development. It has been found that in 2008 and the mid-2007, UK was home to more people of pensionable age than children under the age of 16, which indicates that workforce is not replenished in the UK and here lies the need to invite immigrants from other nations.

In 2008, the average total fertility rate (TFR) across the UK was 1.96 children per woman. Though the figure is considered to be satisfactory by some groups, as it is higher than 1.63 in 2001, it is much lower than 2.95 children per woman registered in 1964. The Scotland had the lowest fertility rate at only 1.8 children per woman, while Northern Ireland had the highest at 2.11 children in 2008. But the minimum fertility rate (FR) for a culture to sustain its population for coming 25 years must be 2.11 children per family (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom).

On the arrival of immigrants in the UK, an analysis by the Office for National Statistical data shows that between 1991 and 2006, 2.3 million immigrants moved to the UK and 84% of them from outside Europe. In 2008, it was predicted that 7 million immigrants would add to the UK population by 2031. The latest official figures show that in 2008, 590,000 people arrived to settle in the UK, while 427,000 left country, which means that net inward migration was 163,000.

Muslim Population in UK

According to the 2001 census, there were 1,536,015 Muslims in England and Wales, forming 3% of the population. Muslims in Scotland numbered 42,557 representing 0.84% of the population. There were a further 1,943 Muslims in Northern Ireland. The biggest groups of Muslims were from Pakistan, Bangladesh and India.  According to a Labour Force Survey, the total number of Muslims in Great Britain in 2008 was 2,422,000, some 4% of the total population. Between 2004 and 2008, the Muslim population grew by more than 500,000.

Among these immigrants, over 1 million people follow religions of Indian origin: 560,000 Hindus, 340,000 Sikhs and about 150,000 Buddhists. One Non-governmental organisation estimated that there were 800,000 Hindus and approximately 270,000 Jews in the United Kingdom in 2008. There were also a considerable Jain population, with Leicester housing one of the world's biggest Jain temples outside India. The Table 2 shows the population of various religious groups, in 2001, in UK. Table 3 shows the distribution of various religious groups in Europe.

Danger of the Rise of Muslim Population:

It has been pointed out that Muslim population all over the world grows faster than those of other religious groups. How much faster? Journalist Richard Kerbaj, after analyzing the data, has come to the conclusion that the Muslim population is rising ten times faster than the rest of the society (The Times, January 30, 2009; http://www.timesonl ine.co.uk/ tol/news/ uk/article562148 2.ece). Kerbaj says, “The Muslim population in Britain has grown by more than 500,000 to 2.4 million in just four years, according to official research collated for The Times.” He also writes, “The research by the Office for National Statistics revealed that within the same period the number of Christians in the country declined by more than 2 million.”

Experts are convinced that the said rapid increase of Muslim population was attributable to (i) immigration, (ii) a higher birthrate and (iii) conversions of indigenous people to Islam during the period of 2004-2008, when the data was gathered. They said, “It also suggests a growing willingness among the believers (Muslims) so as to project themselves as a religious group that cannot be ignored.”

It should be mentioned here that a rise in population of the religious groups, like Hindus, Buddhists, Sikhs and Jews does not pose a threat to the host country. But a rise in Muslim population poses a serious threat to the culture and social fabric of the host Christian country. This is because Islam is fundamentally a totalitarian political creed disguised as a religion. The aim of Islam is to destroy all other religions and establish Islam as the supreme religion over the entire world (see Quran 8:39, 2:193).

So, Muslim immigrants, who come to work as a labour in EU countries, also come with the desire in the core of their hearts to conquer that country for Islam and to rule that country and, thus, to replace the present Judeo-Christian culture of the host country by Arabian religio-political and cultural order. In other words, they aim to turn that country into a colony of Arab religious imperialism. These Muslims do not have any loyalty to the host country. They are loyal, firstly to Allah, then to Allah’s messenger Muhammad and Allah’s book Koran, and finally to the holy places Mecca and Medina. From this viewpoint, each and every Muslim immigrant entertains hostility toward the host country so long it remains under non-Islamic rule. 

Loyalty of the UK Muslims to Labour

It has been mentioned that the Leftist political parties around the world are generally more sympathetic to Muslims. Following this trend, the Labour Party in the UK shows more sympathy toward Muslims, simply to earn their votes. And as a return, Muslim immigrants of UK pretend to be more loyal to the Labour. Commenting on this Muslim-Labour alliance in the UK, political observer Nick Spencer writes: “There are good demographic and socio-economic reasons for that support. British Muslims are disproportionately younger and more urban. They come from lower-income households and experience higher levels of unemployment. These factors traditionally edge voters to the left. Perhaps the Muslim vote is actually made up of cross-currents of wider and more powerful demographic and socio-economic trends.” But “The Iraq war was supposed to have poisoned Labour's relations with British Muslims.” (The Guardian, February 22, 2010)

He also predicted that due to the souring of Muslim-Labour relation, the latter was expected to lose support of a considerable section of Muslims and wrote, “If there were a general election tomorrow, 35% of voting Muslims (meaning those Muslims who claim they are more likely than not to vote) would vote Labour. This compares with 22% of voting Christians and 23% of the entire voting population. By comparison, whereas 30% of the voting population would tick the Conservative box, only 13% of voting Muslims would do so.” At the same time, it is also true that, at least 49% of Muslims will continue to support the Labour Party and claim that the Labour party has been most friendly towards the Muslim faith over recent years.

So, a group of experts apprehended just before the Parliamentary Election 2010 that, “Though the Muslims of UK form only a small percentage (nearly 3 per cent) of the electorate yet, paradoxically, it could be Britain’s Muslims who determine the outcome of next month’s general election. The reason is simple: although there are only about two million Muslims in a nation of 61 million, their numbers are concentrated in a relatively small number of towns and cities throughout the country.” (David Sapsted, Oxford Islamic Marketing, April 19, 2010) So, it is needless to say that, in those Muslim concentrated constituencies, Muslim votes have become a deciding factor in electoral outcomes. The Muslim Public Affairs Committee UK (MPacUK), a London-based civil liberties group, estimates that the Muslim vote could prove to be the deciding factor in as many as 82 marginal constituencies.

Blackburn is such a constituency where Muslims make 26% of the electorate, and hence considered one of Labour’s firmest strongholds. "There are about 25,000 Muslim voters in Blackburn so of course they can make a difference," said the Tory candidate, Imtiaz Ameen. “It has supplied two of the party's leading lights in Foreign Secretary Jack Straw and the late Barbara Castle. Discontent over the Iraq war is felt keenly here, where many Muslims, who make up 26% of the electorate, are starting to turn their back on their traditional support for the Labour party”, said an observer. For example, Ajaz Ellahi, a 28-year-old fabric shop owner, said: "I voted in the last election for Labour but I absolutely will not this time, due to the fact that they are murderers in disguise as you have seen in Iraq."

However, in another article, David Sapsted wrote on April 17, 2010: “The Muslim votes would be a crucial element when both the Labour and Conservative parties are fighting a close battle to get an overall majority in the 646-seat parliament. Traditionally, the bulk of the Muslim vote has gone to the ruling Labour Party, which has been regarded as more sympathetic towards Muslim immigrants.”

“Despite the British military excursions in Iraq and Afghanistan and the introduction of antiterrorism laws, 57 per cent of the country’s Muslims said they intended to vote Labour in a poll earlier this year. … The same poll, however, found that only 32 per cent of Muslims were “absolutely certain” to vote, compared to 47 per cent across the nation”, Sapsted added.

Another development that has made the politicians worried is that, a good percentage of Muslim voters were found to be reluctant to exercise their democratic right in the last election and it was found that only 32 per cent of Muslims went to polling stations to cast their votes. Such a lack of interest has prompted a variety of campaigns this year to get people to the polls.

The Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) organisation had launched a 'Muslim Vote 2010' campaign, complete with a website, targeting to bring more Muslims to the polling booths on the Election Day. It explained why it was vital for Muslims to exercise their democratic rights. Rukiya Dadhiwala, the MPacUK campaign coordinator, however, did not expect that the bulk of Muslim voters will revert to their old habits and vote for Labour candidates. “Muslim voters can no longer be taken for granted by Labour as a new politicised generation are becoming swing voters who demand action on issues from Palestine to antiterror laws,” she said. It is evident that all these factors contributed to the defeat of Labour in 2010 Parliamentary election.

Lust for Muslim vote

In a country, run by a democratic government, it is expected that an individual will cast his vote in favour of a political party of his/her personal choice. But the picture is quite different for the Muslims who live in a non-Muslim majority country; they cast their votes not according to their personal choice but according to the dictates of clerics and community leaders. This forms a Muslim block-vote and goes for a single political party. As soon as this block-vote attains a sizeable amount, or becomes a deciding factor for winning or losing election, every political party starts wooing and appeasing Muslims hoping that they would cast their votes in its favour. To please Muslims, the government starts providing more and more facilities to them, even at the sacrifice of national interest. And in this way the politics of Muslim appeasement gains momentum.

Readers may recall that as the number of Muslim voters rise fast in the UK, the Labour Party, to remain in power, has adopted the policy of Muslim appeasement as a standard practice to capture their voters. The Labour government's refusal to let Wilders enter the UK on February 12, 2009, was undoubtedly a reflection of that policy.

This also becomes apparent from the following statement of Labour MP Gerald Hain on May 12, 2008: said, “Labour needs to change tack on foreign policy to win back voters who deserted the party over the Iraq war. …. Hundreds of thousands of Muslims had been lost to Labour as a result of the worsening situation in Iraq. … We must win back Muslim voters.” (http://icwales.icnetwork.co.uk/0100n...name_page.html). (Peter Gerald Hain was a British Labour politician, who had been the Member of Parliament 1991, and had served in the Cabinets of both Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, firstly as Leader of the House of Commons under Blair and both Secretary of State for Work and Pensions and Secretary of State for Wales under Brown. He was the Member of Parliament for the Welsh constituency of Neath. He came to the UK from South Africa as a teenager, and was a noted anti-apartheid campaigner in the 1970s).

A political analyst commented on Mr Hain’s statements: "Yes, and we all know how they will attempt to win back the Islamic vote. By pandering to their every whim and demand, by elevating their status over the indigenous population to an even higher level than it already is. I can understand why they need to do this. Labour is steadily losing support among ordinary Britons, including some alienated sections of the working class. They so heartily despise, as people are increasingly starting to realise what they are about. It is sheer desperation, an unscrupulous attempt to cling onto power whatever the price may be. And without a doubt the Islamic scum will demand a heavy price for the support this despicable government so desperately needs.”

Criticism of British Policy by Geert Wilders

Stephen Brown, in his article British Parliament Surrenders (FrontPageMagazine.com, February 6, 2009), criticized the policy of Muslim appeasement adopted by UK's Labour Government. He wrote:

“The place where Winston Churchill once so eloquently and forcefully rallied the British people to defeat the Nazi threat is now under siege from a new tyranny. Islamic intimidation achieved a new high last week when it forced the British Parliament, one of Western civilization's most venerable institutions, to quietly surrender its most basic of freedoms.”

Most importantly, the Dutch MP Geert Wilders, the producer of the short film FITNA and the lone fighter against the Islamization of Europe, while addressing an audience at the House of Lords on March 5, 2010, more bitterly denounced the British policy of Muslim appeasement. He said, “Islam means submission, there cannot be any mistake about its goal. That's a given. The question is whether we in Europe and you in Britain, with your glorious past, will submit or stand firm for your heritage. We see Islam taking off in the West at an incredible pace. Europe is Islamizing rapidly. A lot of European cities have enormous Islamic concentrations. Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels and Berlin are just a few examples. In some parts of these cities, Islamic regulations are already being enforced. Women's rights are being destroyed. Burqa's, headscarves, polygamy, female genital mutilation, honour-killings have started to take place in a wide scale. Women have to go to separate swimming-classes, don't get a handshake. Many European cities are already under apartheid. Jews, in an increasing number, are leaving Europe.”

He pointed out that, Islamization of Great Britain is rapidly advancing due to mass immigration of Muslims to the country and that this Islamization “has put an enormous pressure on your British society. ... British politicians who have forgotten about Winston Churchill have now taken the path of least resistance. They have given up. They have given in.” 

Questioning the economic aspect of mass immigration, he said: “Last year, my party has requested the Dutch government to make a cost-benefit analysis of the mass immigration. But the government refused to give us an answer. Why? Because it was afraid of the truth. .... A Dutch weekly magazine - Elsevier - calculated costs to exceed 200 billion Euros. Last year alone, they came with an amount of 13 billion Euros. More calculations have been made in Europe: According to the Danish national bank, every Danish immigrant from an Islamic country is costing the Danish state more than 300 thousand Euros. You see the same in Norway and France. The conclusion that can be drawn from this:

Europe is getting more impoverished by the day. More impoverished thanks to mass immigration. More impoverished thanks to demographics. And the leftists are thrilled.”

It is evident that same things are happening in Britain as well but being suppressed.

To caution the audience about the danger Islamization of Europe, Wilders said: “The Labour Government has opened the door to mass immigration as a deliberate policy to change the social structures of the UK. Andrew Neather, a former government advisor and speech writer for Tony Blair and Jack Straw, said the aim of Labour's immigration strategy was, and I quote, to "rub the Right's nose in diversity and render their arguments out of date".

“If this is true, this is symptomatic of the Left. Why the Labour Party has opened the door for mass Muslim immigrants? The Labour is contemplating to turn the Muslims immigrants into their voters through appeasement and win elections”, he added.

West Bengal in also a victim of the curse of Muslim appeasement

The picture is quite similar to what is happening in the state of West Bengal (WB) in India. A coalition government led by the Communists and other leftist parties are ruling the state for the past 30 years. Labour in Britain and Leftists in the Europe are inviting Muslim immigrants to remain in power. In West Bengal, the ruling Leftist Government has opened the porous WB-Bangladesh border and inviting the illegal Muslim infiltrators to come and settle in the state. In fact, Muslim Bangladeshi infiltrators are pouring into WB in large numbers. The appeasement of these Muslim infiltrators starts as soon as an infiltrator crosses the border and sets his foot on Indian soil.

The Communist cadres immediately start their job – firstly to find a suitable shelter for them and then to provide ration cards and get their names entered into the voters’ list, and thus turning them into citizens of India through the back door. This author has described these developments through several articles e.g. The Destiny of the Hindus of West Bengal: The Coming Days of Slavery to Islam, West Bengal in the Peril of Islamic Jihad and so on. These Leftist political leaders fail to understand that by bringing the Muslims into WB, they are axing their own legs. They will be the first victim of Islam as soon as Muslims gain majority.

In the UK, one may recall the recent stabbing of the Labour MP Stephen Timms on May 14 this year by Roshanara chaudhari, a young Muslim woman. 

How the Muslims utilise this opportunity

Sir Winston Churchill assessed Islam as thus: “How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet (Mohammed) rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child , a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.”

In fact, Islam is a nonspiritual political creed. It is not a religion, but a political party and each and every mosque is its party office. The religious address (khutba) delivered by the imams of the mosques after Friday prayers are nothing but political lectures. So, as a religious group, Muslims are politically more conscious and active than other religious groups. As a result, as soon as Muslims in a non-Muslim country could sense that the ruling government or the ruling political are greedy for their votes and has adopted the policy of Muslim appeasement, they start bargaining to squeeze out as much benefit as possible from that ruling party. And they go on demanding unjust financial, religious or any other benefit and concessions from the government, because they know that government would bow down to their most unjust and illegal demands for their votes.

In addition to that, they intensify their jihadi and other unlawful activities because they know that the government would turn a blind eye to these activities for the fear of losing their votes.

In this manner, they elevate themselves as citizens of the first category, while the indigenous people of the country are reduced to second category citizens. As a consequence of this political game, they have already succeeded in establishing Sharia courts in the U.K. as a parallel system judiciary. As a matter of fact, through establishment of Sharia court, they have been able to advance the process of Islamization of UK a step further. Discussion on the other curses of Muslim appeasement would follow in another article.

London Theater Bows to Anti-Semitics & Cancels Jewish Event

UK theater nixes Yom Ha'atzmaut event

A London theater that hosted a Deir Yassin commemoration has bowed to pressure by anti-Zionist groups and canceled an Israel Independence Day celebration.

The Bloomsbury Theater in central London was scheduled to host the UK Jewish community's annual Independence Day event organized by the Zionist Federation of the UK (ZF) on April 28.

Initially, after the theater received complaints from anti-Israel groups, the ZF agreed to exclude an IDF entertainment troupe that had been scheduled to take part, but following further protests, the theater decided to cancel the event completely.

A letter sent to the theater by a fringe group calling itself the International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network said: "How will you monitor that IDF performers will not appear under another guise? On a matter so serious as entertaining the presence of those accused of genocide by the UN and others respected for human rights monitoring, surely you don't intend to be satisfied that the IDF's removal from the ZF's publicity is enough."

In an e-mail sent on Thursday to the protesters, the theater's director, Peter Cadley, said: "Further to my recent e-mail regarding proposed performances at the theater by an entertainment troupe associated with the Israel Defense Force, it has now been decided that, despite assurances that the troupe had been withdrawn from the line-ups, the events in question will now be canceled. Thanks again for your e-mail; I hope to welcome you to an event at the Bloomsbury Theater in the future."

In April 2006, the Bloomsbury Theater hosted an event to commemorate the events of Deir Yassin. Titled "How Palestine became Israel," it was organized by a fringe group called Deir Yassin Remembered (DYR), led by Paul Eisen.

On the group's board of advisers is Swedish journalist Joran Jermas, also known as Israel Shamir. Both Eisen and Shamir have been accused of Holocaust denial.

The ZF called the theater's cancellation regrettable, but said that in the wake of moving the celebrations to a north London venue, it had been inundated with calls of support and requests for tickets.

"It is a sad day for Britain when ill-informed minority lobbies attempt to limit freedom of expression in a family cultural program that has had a similar format for many years," ZF Chairman Andrew Balcombe said.

"We are delighted that the shows are going ahead and, because of the recent publicity, we have been inundated with calls of support and ticket requests. The audience from the Jewish and general communities will be coming together to celebrate Israel's 61st birthday and see the rich cultural diversity that is Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East," he added.

Bloomsbury Theater representatives were not available for comment.

NEW PARIS FASHION = NAZI INSPIRED ANTI SEMITIC T-SHIRTS

What do you think would happen if a boutique in Paris began selling T-shirts with "Muslims forbidden from entering the park" printed in bold letters on the shirt front?

Can you imagine the outrage - angry mobs of muslims with contorted facing running into the streets while they rant and rave over the (myth of) Islamophobia. Loud demands would be issued calling for the store be closed (more likely it would be set on fire), the owner punished and likely a fatwa would be called against the shirt designer. Mobs of "North African youths" would pour into the streets and cars would be set on fire and other riot behaviors would begin. Politicians would be tripping over themselves in a rush to publicly denounce the shirts. Clearly this scenario would likely precede the burning of cars (if they can find anymore cars left to torch) and other muslim riot behaviors. The muslim pandering mainstream media and other so called "leaders" would have front page articles and public speeches all aghast at this mistreatement of poor misunderstood and abused muslims - thus certifying their dhimmitude.

So why is their virtual silence from the media, politicians, and other human rights proponents?  Why?

Because the T-shirt described above is NOT about muslims - it is directed at Jews.

A shop in the Belville area of Paris, known to be the site of ongoing fighting between groups youths of North African origin (mediaspeak for muslims) & Jews, has been selling T-shirts emblazoned in German and Polish language that translate as "Jews forbidden from entering the park".

If that isn't bad enough - the shirts are replicas of Nazi  signs that targeted Polish Jews back in 1940.

                                                               

So where is the outrage??? Why are no public figures rushing forward to get their "photo opportunity" to show their support for the Jewish people and to denounce these anti- Semitic shirts??

The "cricket chirping" silence says it all.
