Aung San Suu Kyi, the leader of Myanmar, is now all over the news, being taken to task for “not speaking out” against the mistreatment of the Rohingya, the Muslim minority in Myanmar, almost all of whom live in the western Rakhine State of Myanmar. 365,000 people have signed a petition demanding she be stripped of her Nobel Prize for not speaking out and denouncing the Buddhists of Myanmar; in Pakistan, a country renowned for its humane treatment of minorities, her photograph has been publicly burned; Al Jazeera has denounced her, and so has that champion of justice Tariq Ramadan.
In the last month, the world media reports, 250,000 Rohingya have now fled the latest cycle of violence, that began with Rohingya attacks on the military in mid-August, for Bangladesh. In fact, Aung San Suu Kyi has spoken out, but not in the way that many expected. They wanted her to categorically denounce the Burmese military and to depict the Rohingya as entirely innocent victims of Buddhist attacks; this she has refused to do. She believes the story of the Rohingyas in Myanmar is more complicated than the outside world believes. She has noted that “fake news” about atrocities in Myanmar have been relied on by much of the world’s media. More than a few of the stories about the Rohingya have indeed been accompanied by photos purportedly showing the violence against them, but which, in fact, have turned out to be photos of other atrocities experienced by other peoples, having nothing to do with Myanmar. Even the BBC’s south-east Asia correspondent, Jonathan Head, concedes that “much of it [the photos, and the coverage] is wrong.” A closer look reveals that many of the pictures supposedly from Myanmar have come from other crises around the world, with one of those tweeted by Turkey’s Deputy Prime Minister Mehmet Simsek even dating back to the Rwandan genocide in 1994.

The early 21st century is not the first time warnings of calamity have been ignored. Roman historian Livy tells us that in 391 BC a Roman plebian named Marcus Caedicius heard a warning from the goddess Vesta's sacred grove -of an imminent Gaulish attack- recommending the walls of Rome be fortified & instructing him to pass these messages on to the magistrates; but because of Caedicius's humble station this portent was not heeded & the Gauls sacked Rome in 390 BC.
Like Marcus Caedicius Fjordman has been warning of the dangers posed by barbarians, in this case those who submit to Mohammed's Dark-Age teachings (known as Muslims [Submitters]), to our Western society & culture since the beginning of the century. Alas, his message has also largely fallen on deaf ears. Rome will fall once more if we do not heed his warnings.
This is possibly the most important topic there is & one that needs as much publicity as possible especially in light of the globalist forces attempting to manipulate the Islamic hordes for their own ends.
Here I present my lengthy interview with the great Norwegian blogger, political comentator, Islam-critic & Patriot of Western Culture Peder Jensen, known by his nom de plume Fjordman
For those of you who haven't heard of Fjordman he is one of the most influential figures in the so-called "Counter-Jihad" movement with its warnings of an Islamic takeover of the West.
Excerpts from this interview may also appear in future at the famous Gates Of Vienna website but here I present it in its entirety.
I think that his responses read better as an essay -as the themes tend to blend into one another & cross-polllinate- rather than as point-by-point answers to my questions, however, I will include my questions above them in bold.
Aprecians here is my interview with the great man himself:
Hello Fjordman,
Thanks so much for your time. This interview will be for a thread on "The Apricity" European cultural community free speech forum. Our readers tend to have a deep interest in European heritage & tend to be right of centre.
It's quite a long interview so please feel free to answer which ever questions you like. I appreciate your time. I don't believe in censorship so won't edit your answers.
Questions;
