In my opinion, the biggest problem with Western Europeans now is that they’re unprepared to fight. They’re so attached to the welfare state bubble they dwell in, it’s hard to believe their ancestors fought and died for Christendom.

What this Muslim murderer was talking about in the first part of the note was the Day of Judgement. The early, Meccan suras of the Koran are filled with references to it.

The confounding thing about the jihadists making war on the West today is that they attack countries that have committed offenses against Muslims in the modern world (the United States) as well as those that haven’t (Netherlands, France, Nepal, etc). I’m convinced that the violence we see from Muslims is because of opposition to the West qua the West, not because of specific grievances. Given that reality, it makes me sick to read John Esposito’s tirades about the need for mutual understanding between Muslims and Christians (when really he means the need for only Christians to “understand” Muslims, not vice versa), or Karen Armstrong’s lauding of the mythical Islamic tolerance of the medieval period. Whether Islamophiles like it or not, which of course they don’t, believing in the interchangeability of cultures and human beings, Huntington’s clash of civilizations expresses something real. In fact, Huntington likely understated his case.

I hope van Gogh’s murder will be an effective alarm. The Moslem murderer could hardly have made his purpose plainer. Of course, Theo van Gogh would not have counseled turning to Christianity for assistance. I gather he was almost as intolerant of his ancestors’ faith as he was (rightfully) of Islam.

We in the West have to understand the fight we are in. Mr. Auster understood this earlier than most of us, and VFR has been in the lead with an accurate diagnosis of our disease.

Setting aside the existential optimism that Christian faith commands for a minute, I remain pessimistic, however. On September 11th, 2001 I watched from my office window as people across the street leapt a quarter mile to certain death to avoid being roasted by Islam’s purifying flames. When I got home, even though the perpetrators had been named and their religious motive was clear, I was subjected to our inadequate commander-in-chief’s blatherings about how Islam is a religion of peace. His understanding has not increased one iota since. I do not know what will awaken the Christian West. I remain astonished that even the Moslem evils of September 11th could not do it. HRS

Yes, Mr. Sutherland I agree. The “Religion of Peace” mantra by President Bush rings quite hollow and is not necessary for him to chant every chance he gets. He should read John Adams on Islam.

I was in 11th grade during 9/11. The next day, our AP American History teacher lectured us about “the other Arab countries who are our friends”. I got up and said that the whole Arab world is our enemy and we should treat it as such. For this I was accused of hatemongering and was threatened with disciplinary action.
A few days later, all the doors in my HS were covered with posters printed up by the local Islamic Center. The posters asserted that the Muslim community is angry and full of sorrow like all other Americans and that the terrorists don’t represent Islam. Also, in the biggest lie of them all, the local Mohammedans stated that “Islam comes from the Arabic word ‘salaam’, which means peace”.
They were assuming that American HS students and teachers were too ignorant to know that Islam means “submission to the will of Allah”. A classic example of Muslim treachery.

The Eurocrats who 30 years ago decided it would be a grand idea to allow MILLIONS of Muslims into Europe have made a disastrous error. Their greed, stupidity and sheer recklessness intentionally ignored the hundreds of years of direct conflict with Islam.

What the heck were they thinking, that this alter-civilization could co-exist with its sworn enemy in the heart of old Western Christendom?

Is there any way to organize a one click link form letter to email all the European Dhimmis in Parliament, Brussels and elsewhere to create a storm of protest?

We are tired of you traitorous Eurocrats in Brussels fattening us up for the Islamic slaughter and we want action now or we will take it ourselves.

The resistance.

The Euro-elites could care less about public opinion. The Kritarchy/Bureaucracy is already in place. They personally have little to fear as they are surrounded by machine-gun toting security and live safely tucked away from the teeming rabble. They are just waiting for the uproar over Van Gogh’s murder to die down. At that point they will make a couple of utterly meaningless gestures and continue in their establishment of a totalitarian utopia.

To paraphrase from an earlier posting of Mr. Girin’s, they are planning to end up as the court Christians in the Caliphate of Eurabia. Quislings and traitors all. As far as resistance goes, don’t tell them - just do it. The resistance can start by ignoring all of the stupid gun laws. At least poeple could then defend themselves if attacked by jihadis coming out of the mosques.

I met a friend from Karlsruhre today. Her house was burglerized twice in one year. She wants a gun but of course it is impossible here. She has been exploring other options because she is very afraid.

Andrew2, your friend might be able to obtain a crossbow. Every bit as deadly as most firearms at close range.

No, she wants a firearm and said it may be possible to do in France. I didn’t ask for details, but she is a German who envys Americans 2nd Amendment rights. She also is concerned about Islamic immigration as she explained that a new Mosque was built in her town and the nearby town now is allowed to broadcast the Islamic call to prayer.

Her daughter dated an Kosovar Albanian Muslim who threatened to “kill” her after her daughter broke up with him. That was a few years ago and he fled Germany after he beat the living hell out of another girlfriend.

Things in this part of Eurabia are bad. I cannot stress the sheer number of Muslums in Europe. I have seen it in several EU countries I have traveled to and it does not represent diversity at all. It is either European Christians OR Immigrant Muslims. It is a very bad spot for Europe to have placed itself into.

Bat Yeo’r seems to have presented a very compelling argument that the Islamification of Europe was an engineered catastrophe.

The EU commission that is on the verge of approving the proposal to allow Turkey to join the EU will make its recommendations in December. Internal memos have surfaced indicating that approval is being railroaded through, even though some of the commissioners do not believe admitting Turkey to the EU is in the best interests of Europeans. It is not “politically correct” to oppose the membership of Turkey. Polls of ordinary citizens in EU member states have consistently shown majority opposition to admitting Turkey. Can the death spiral be stopped?

Forget about Europe and look whats happening right here on the campus of San Francisco State University. Here is a link to an article from FrontPageMagazine.com called Jihad at San Francisco State.
