BERLIJN - UPDATE - De Duitse politie heeft met de arrestatie van zes Syriërs een mogelijke aanslag op de bij Nederlanders populaire kerstmarkt van Essen voorkomen.

Volgens Duitse media gaat het om IS-leden.

Jaarlijks trekt de markt in Essen, die volgende week start, zo’n vijf miljoen bezoekers. Onder hen vele tienduizenden Nederlanders. Bild en de Hessenschau melden dat juist deze markt was uitgezocht voor een aanval. Andere media citeren een politiewoordvoerder die Essen niet wil bevestigen.

Dat is in ieder geval één aanslag die voorkomen is, maar ongetwijfeld zitten er meer in de planning. Reken maar dat onze moslimvrienden er alles aan zullen doen om dit een bloederige Kerst te laten worden nu hun kalifaat verpletterd is.

En laat vooral die laatste alinea van dat bericht eens goed tot u doordringen:

"De arrestanten hebben voor IS hebben gevochten in het Midden-Oosten. Ze zijn volgens Duitse media tussen december 2014 en september 2015 als vluchteling naar Duitsland gekomen."

Precies waar mensen als Geert Wilders dus al jaren voor waarschuwen is gebeurd. Geharde strijders en fanatieke mohammedanen zijn van het slagveld teruggekeerd in de vluchtelingenstroom. Iets wat Judith Sargentini op 18 mei 2015 op Twitter hooghartig als volgt afdeed:

"Er is geen greintje bewijs voor de stelling dat IS-strijders op vluchtelingenbootjes naar Europa komen. Is hysterie @EricPetri1"

Het wordt hoog tijd dat we verdwaasde figuren als Judith Sargentini en al diegenen die weigeren onze grenzen te sluiten voor de massaal binnenstromende Mohammedanen verantwoordelijk houden voor de dode en verminkte slachtoffers van jihadaanslagen, ze uit hun machtsposities gooien en aanklagen voor landverraad en op zijn minst dood door schuld!

Muhammad’s Willing Executioners: How Mainstream Islam Threatens Jewish Existence

Originally posted at PJ Media, as “How Mainstream Islam Threatens Jewish Existence”


Whether one considers the masses of Muslims flowing into Europe as (primarily economic) refugees, proud hijra colonists “quietly” Islamizing the continent, or both, these newly arrived votaries of Islam express an unabashed Islamic Jew-hatred. Germany’s failed attempt to mollify this Muslim immigrant animus toward Jews by “sensitivity” visits to Nazi-era concentration camp memorials, demonstrates its deep-seated intractability.


The spectacle of brutality on display at Sachsenhausen did not awe [Syrian Muslim] Jamo, a former photographer who had known daily violence in Syria. No matter the direct perpetrator of the violence Jamo had witnessed, the greatest cause of conflict in the region, he said, was Israel…“The Arabs think what Hitler did was a good thing, because he freed them from the Jews.”

Interview with Fjordman

Interview with Fjordman
Note: This email interview was first published at the website The Apricity.

I was born in 1975. If I had any Islam-friendly or pro-Multicultural viewpoints in Norway in the 1990s, spending several years in the Middle East cured me of this. I was a student of Arabic at the American University in Cairo, Egypt, in 2001. I was in Cairo during the September 11th terror attacks in the USA that year. Some Egyptians I talked to were happy about these attacks against their American “allies.” Western mass media claimed that almost all Arabs and Muslims lamented the 9/11 attacks. I knew this was not true. I lived in the largest city in the Arabic-speaking world during these events.

In 2002 and 2003, I worked in Israel and the Palestinian territories in a civilian observer mission called Temporary International Presence in Hebron (TIPH). The mission itself is not very useful. However, I continued to learn more about Islamic culture and mentality. From my personal experiences and studies, Islam turned out to be a lot less peaceful than we are being told by the media and mainstream academia.

When I returned to Norway in August 2003, I was convinced that Europe was importing big and dangerous future conflicts because of Muslim immigration. I also took a Master’s degree at the University of Oslo with an emphasis on technology studies and Internet censorship.
I was active on various websites for several years. Eventually, in February 2005, I adopted the pseudonym Fjordman. I have been using that pen name ever since, also after my real identity became known in 2011.

Reporting on the Rohingya: “The Tip of a Huge Iceberg of Misinformation”

by Hugh Fitzgerald

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.

16 Years Later: Lessons Put into Practice?

Today marks the 16th anniversary of al-Qaida's 9/11 attacks. We learned much that tragic day, at enormous human and material cost. Perilously, however, America has already forgotten many of Sept. 11's lessons.

The radical Islamicist ideology manifested that day has neither receded nor "moderated" as many naive Westerners predicted. Neither has the ideology's hatred for America or its inclination to conduct terrorist attacks. Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution brought radical Islam to the contemporary world's attention, and it is no less malevolent today than when it seized our Tehran embassy, holding U.S. diplomats hostage for 444 days.

The Taliban, which provided al-Qaida sanctuary to prepare the 9/11 attacks, threaten to retake control in Afghanistan. Al-Qaida persists and may even be growing worldwide.
While ISIS's caliphate in Syria and Iraq will not survive much longer, countries across North Africa and the Middle East ("MENA") have destabilized or fractured entirely. Syria and Iraq have ceased to exist functionally, and Libya, Somalia and Yemen have descended into chaos. Pakistan, an unstable nuclear-weapons state, could fall to radicals under many easily predictable scenarios.

Speech Geert Wilders Ambrosetti conferentie, Italië, Villa d’Este, 2 september 2017

Dames en heren,

Bedankt dat ik hier vandaag mag zijn. Ik waardeer het dat u iemand uitnodigt die uw enthousiasme voor de Europese Unie niet deelt. Of uw Europese droom zoals Euro Commissaris Frans Timmermans het zojuist noemde. Om eerlijk te zijn: zijn droom is mijn nachtmerrie.

Ik besef dat mijn mening verschilt van die van de vele leden van de Europese elite in ons midden, maar ik ben een optimist.

Ik geloof in een positieve toekomst voor Europa als een gemeenschap van onafhankelijke, soevereine en democratische landen - samenwerkend zonder een supranationale politieke unie - een Europa zonder de Europese Unie.

Ik geloof dat een echte democratie alleen kan bestaan en bloeien binnen een natiestaat. De nationale soevereiniteit gecombineerd met de binnenlandse cultuur geeft ons onze identiteit. Evenals controle over onze eigen grenzen en begroting en het recht om te beslissen hoe we het zelf als natie gebruiken.
Helaas hebben de meeste van onze regeringen steeds meer bevoegdheden overgedragen aan de EU, waardoor veel belangrijke dingen die we in de afgelopen eeuwen hebben bereikt, ondermijnd worden.

New Details on 173-Man Islamic State Terror Team Headed Towards Europe

A report released two weeks ago by Interpol publicized identifying information of 173 Islamic State operatives suspected to be headed towards -- or already in -- Europe. The report warns that it's easier for non-European operatives to slip into the continent than for European citizens of the terror group.

Today, a new report from Belgian media outlet HLN provides additional details on these ISIS operatives, and on one known Belgian operative in particular:

(translated)

Belgian Islamic State terrorist on his way to Europe

On the list of 173 IS terrorists who would be on their way to Europe to commit suicide bombings there is also a Belgian. He is a 24-year-old with Moroccan roots who is called "Abu Omar Al-Belgiki." The Belgian with dual nationality remained until recently in Mosul, the Iraqi bulwark where IS has recently been expelled. He never appeared in public before.

His nickname appears to be a tribute to Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the Molenbeek commander of the Paris terror attack who used the same alias. Where the Belgian is currently is not known. But of the other Europeans for whom Interpol expressly warns in a document we have obtained, one could certainly escape the siege of Mosul and now try to get from Syria to the West through neighboring countries.

Book Review of Ibn Warraq: The Islam in Islamic Terrorism

by Fjordman

The world is witnessing a massive wave of Islamic terrorist attacks. Hardly a week goes by without such an attack taking place somewhere in the world. Sometimes, militant Muslims carry out several deadly atrocities in just one day.

Europe and the Western world are also increasingly being targeted by such deadly terror. Western politicians and media are quick to claim that the murderous attacks carried out by militant Muslims have nothing to do with Islam. The esteemed author Ibn Warraq disproves this false claim in his new book The Islam in Islamic Terrorism: The Importance of Beliefs, Ideas, and Ideology.

The book is packed with examples showing the continuity of Islamic thought and practices for more than one thousand years. This includes revealing quotes from the Kharijites, Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Al-Ghazali, Ibn Taymiyya, Ibn Abd al-Wahhab, Syed Abul A’la Maududi, the strongly pro-Nazi Palestinian Grand Mufti Haj Amin al-Husaini, Hassan al-Banna, Sayyid Qutb and others from the Muslim Brotherhood, Muhammad abd-al-Salam Faraj, Abdullah Azzam, Ayman al-Zawahiri and Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.

Many leading figures from the international Jihadist movements have been members of the Muslim Brotherhood. They range from Sayyid Qutb and Abdullah Azzam to Ayman al-Zawahiri, leader of the terrorist network al-Qaida after the death of Osama bin Laden, and Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the self-proclaimed caliph of the Islamic State (ISIS).

‘Laten we ophouden met de lafheid, en de waarheid spreken over de islam’

Nieuwsbrief - Partij voor de Vrijheid

 Deze week ging de documentaire “Wilders” in première, op DocFest, een jaarlijks filmfestival in de Britse stad Sheffield.

Deze documentaire is gemaakt door de Amerikaanse regisseur Stephen Robert Morse. Hoewel hij het niet met al mijn standpunten eens is, heeft hij geprobeerd een eerlijk beeld te schetsen van wie ik ben en waar ik voor sta. Dat is bij de meeste Nederlandse journalisten wel anders.

Ik stond Morse en zijn team toe om mij een aantal maanden te volgen. De documentaire laat zien hoe ik, vanwege islamitische doodsbedreigingen, moet leven onder continue politiebeveiliging. Je ziet hoe ik word rondgereden in gepantserde auto’s, en dat ik verplicht ben om een kogelvrij vest te dragen wanneer ik in het openbaar ga spreken.

Sommige anderen leven in vergelijkbare situaties, zoals de Deense cartoonist Kurt Westergaard en zijn Zweedse collega Lars Vilks, maar ook de Britse auteur Salman Rushdie, de Deense historicus Lars Hedegaard, en zo zijn er nog een paar. In zekere zin is deze documentaire ook een ode aan hen. We staan stuk voor stuk op de dodenlijst van de islam. Maar wat ik altijd apart heb gevonden is dat ik de enige volksvertegenwoordiger ben in het rijtje.

Alle politici roepen in verkiezingstijd dat ze het volk zullen dienen. Maar je kunt het volk pas dienen als je bereid bent de waarheid te vertellen. En de waarheid over de islam is geen prettige.

Wat een geruststelling zou het zijn als de islam daadwerkelijk de religie van de vrede zou zijn, zoals de meeste politici stellig beweren. Geruststellend, maar ook hopeloos naïef, want het valt niet meer te ontkennen dat tegenwoordig vrijwel alle terroristische aanslagen worden gepleegd in naam van de islam.

Veel politici durven het niet aan om de waarheid over de islam te spreken. Sommigen vinden het veel makkelijker om de politiek correcte dogma’s van links na te praten. Anderen zijn bang om net zoals ik te moeten leven, en zoals Westergaard, Vilks, Rushdie, Hedegaard en anderen.

Maar ik beschouw dit niet als een terecht bezwaar. Niemand wordt gedwongen om politicus te worden, maar als je eenmaal de keuze hebt gemaakt, mag je jezelf nooit de mond laten snoeren door de dreiging van geweld. Want als een politicus aan die angst toegeeft, dan laat hij de kant van het geweld winnen. En dat zou geen enkele democratische politicus mogen laten gebeuren.

De afgelopen decennia is de terreurdreiging in het Westen gestaag toegenomen. Deze groei heeft alles te maken met de opkomst van de islam in onze samenlevingen. Politici die weigeren om deze realiteit in te zien, houden niet alleen zichzelf voor de gek, maar brengen ook hun burgers in gevaar. Dit jarenlange wegkijken is waarom vandaag de dag iedereen op de dodenlijst staat.

We lopen allemaal gevaar en dat is compleet onaanvaardbaar. Mensen, of ze nu op het platteland of in de stad wonen, hebben het recht om in veiligheid te leven. Mijns inziens is die veiligheid belangrijker dan het recht van moslims om in onze samenleving te kunnen leven in overeenstemming met hun zogenaamde religie. Het Westen mag de islam nooit de vrijheid gunnen om de Westerse vrijheden te verdringen.

Er zijn al talloze islamitische landen op Aarde, zoals Saoedi-Arabië, Iran en Pakistan, waar sharia de basis van het recht vormt. Waarom kiezen moslims die aangeven hier de sharia in te willen voeren, er niet voor om naar die landen te verhuizen?

Vroeg of laat zullen zelfs de wegkijkende politici gedwongen worden om de problemen te erkennen. Maar tot het zover is, verliezen we kostbare tijd. En de regerende elite is daarvoor verantwoordelijk.

Des te meer islam die toestaat in ons land, des te meer vrijheden we inleveren.

In Nederland is momenteel het formatieproces aan de gang. Hoewel de PVV, met de verkiezingen van 15 maart, de tweede partij van Nederland is geworden, kiezen de VVD en het CDA ervoor om niet eens met de PVV te willen praten over een coalitie. Dit heeft een politieke patstelling veroorzaakt waardoor het vrijwel onmogelijk is geworden om een meerderheidscoalitie te vormen.

Eerder deze week schreven de fractievoorzitters Mark Rutte en Sybrand Buma ieder een brief waarin ze hun weigering uitleggen. Zo vinden ze de PVV te radicaal. Maar het is niet de PVV die radicaal is, het is de islam.

Laten we ophouden met deze lafheid. Laten we de politieke correctheid doorbreken. Zoals de Amerikaanse generaal Patton al zei: “de lafaard is degene die de angst het plichtsbesef laat overwinnen.” Ik zal mijn plicht blijven doen, waarschijnlijk weer als leider van de oppositie. En ik zal mij uit blijven spreken, wat de prijs ook mag zijn. Ik zal de islamisering van Nederland bevechten en onze vrijheden verdedigen, compromisloos en met vastberadenheid, overtuiging en kracht, dag in dag uit.

Europe’s Jihad Epidemic: Stats Show Arrests Increasing, Prison Sentences Falling

The latest EU Terrorism Situation and Trend Report (TE-SAT) reveals the number of jihadist terrorists being arrested “sharply increased” in 2016 – but their prison terms are only getting shorter.

Prepared by Europol, the bloc’s supra-national law enforcement agency, the report says member-states logged 718 jihadist arrests in 2016; up from 687 in 2015 and 395 in 2014.

It claims that, “of 142 failed, foiled and completed attacks” reported by eight EU members, the greatest number were carried out by what it describes as “ethno-nationalist and separatist extremists” (99), with “left-wing violent extremists” in second-place (27).

However, it concedes that jihadist terrorism claimed the most actual victims, and the “vast majority” of court verdicts associated with terrorism “were pronounced in relation to jihadist terrorism” – suggesting that the threat from “ethno-nationalists” is overstated in the headline figures.

Court data also shows that the average prison sentence for terrorist offences in the EU fell to just 5 years in 2016; down from 7 in 2015.

Jesuit Scholar: Islamic Extremists Are the True Muslims

Islamic extremists who carry out acts of terror are simply applying what their faith requires of them, according to Jesuit Father Henri Boulad, an Islamic scholar of the Egyptian Greek Melkite rite.

In an interview with the National Catholic Register, Father Boulad said that “Islam is an open-ended declaration of war against non-Muslims” and those who carry out violent jihad are true Muslims who are applying exactly what their creed demands.

advertisement

Those who fail to recognize the real threat posed by Islam are naïve and ignorant of history, he said, and unfortunately many in the Church fall into this category.

Citing a letter he wrote last August to Pope Francis, Father Boulad said that “on the pretext of openness, tolerance and Christian charity — the Catholic Church has fallen into the trap of the liberal left ideology which is destroying the West.”

Additional Footage Reveals CNN Staging Fake News Muslim 'Anti-Terror' Protest

Saudi Arabia is destabilizing the world

By Stephen Kinzer

A few months ago, the governor of Indonesia’s largest city, Jakarta, seemed headed for easy re-election despite the fact that he is a Christian in a mostly Muslim country. Suddenly everything went violently wrong. Using the pretext of an offhand remark the governor made about the Koran, masses of enraged Muslims took to the streets to denounce him. In short order he lost the election, was arrested, charged with blasphemy, and sentenced to two years in prison.

This episode is especially alarming because Indonesia, the world’s largest Muslim country, has long been one of its most tolerant. Indonesian Islam, like most belief systems on that vast archipelago, is syncretic, gentle, and open-minded. The stunning fall of Jakarta’s governor reflects the opposite: intolerance, sectarian hatred, and contempt for democracy. Fundamentalism is surging in Indonesia. This did not happen naturally

Saudi Arabia has been working for decades to pull Indonesia away from moderate Islam and toward the austere Wahhabi form that is state religion in Saudi Arabia. The Saudis’ campaign has been patient, multi-faceted, and lavishly financed. It mirrors others they have waged in Muslim countries across Asia and Africa.

Successive American presidents have assured us that Saudi Arabia is our friend and wishes us well. Yet we know that Osama bin Laden and most of his 9/11 hijackers were Saudis, and that, as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton wrote in a diplomatic cable eight years ago, “Donors in Saudi Arabia constitute the most significant source of funding to Sunni terrorist groups worldwide.”

QATAR, TRUMP AND DOUBLE GAMES

Qatar’s role in undermining the stability of the Islamic world has been second only to Iran’s.

Caroline Glick

 

US President Donald Trump has been attacked by his ubiquitous critics for his apparent about-face on the crisis surrounding Qatar.

In a Twitter post on Tuesday, Trump sided firmly with Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and the other Sunni states that cut diplomatic ties with Qatar and instituted an air and land blockade of the sheikhdom on Monday.

 

On Wednesday, Trump said that he hopes to mediate the dispute, more or less parroting the lines adopted by the State Department and the Pentagon which his Twitter posts disputed the day before.

To understand the apparent turnaround and why it is both understandable and probably not an about-face, it is important to understand the forces at play and the stakes involved in the Sunni Arab world’s showdown with Doha.

Arguably, Qatar’s role in undermining the stability of the Islamic world has been second only to Iran’s.

Convert, Pay, or Die

Convert, pay, or die is the set of choices Islam offers infidels. Coincidentally, this is also what today's progressives and the Democratic Party offer nonbelievers, climate "deniers," white males, heterosexuals, patriots, blue-collar workers, farmers, miners, people without a college degree, the religiously devout, Republicans, and everybody else choosing not to buy into the party's version of what America is and what the nation owes both its citizens and the world.

Our country has collectively "slipped into madness." Hatred in the name of diversity and political unity has become a goal in itself – and it is ascendant in modern culture, all compelled by leftist ideology.

No matter how many are killed, maimed, or merely terrified in the name of Allah, for progressives, the problem will always be Islamophobia, or an ignorant populace too uneducated to understand the inherent nuance of the "religion of peace."

Those who suggest enhanced screening for immigrants from Islamic nations or even a limited suspension, as President Trump proposed, are greeted with rioting in the streets, for to look askance at a man who expresses an explicit desire to kill in the name of Allah is tantamount to outright racism.

Islamofascists and Marxists versus Trump...and Each Other

It was Admiral James Lyons who warned us about jihadist infiltration into the U.S. government and media. Every American with a non-P.C. brain should reread his words.

Jihad infiltration is not a new thing. The Soviet KGB infiltrated the United States in the 1940s and '50s, using the smiling propaganda image of Uncle Joe Stalin during the brief U.S.-Soviet alliance against Hitler. Once that war was won, at the cost of immense bloodshed and treasure, Stalin turned against us and had the CPUSA steal the Manhattan Project plants. The Democrats, who had committed treason in time of war (the standard for treason in the U.S. Constitution, Article 3), put up such a loud scream-fest that most Republicans and ordinary Americans were intimidated. In the 1960s, the radical left conducted a classical March through the Institutions, inspired by Italian Communist Arturo Gramsci, covered up with love and peace propaganda. Americans fell for the sucker play, and we allowed the totalitarian left to rewrite the history of the 1940s and '50s. Today, you can't find a single self-confessed Stalinist anymore, just as you can't find any self-confessed Nazis in Germany. History has been erased.

Islamic Carnage and 12 Kinds of Liberal Complicity

The liberal position on Islamic terrorism, unchallenged by the media, and shared not only by most on the political left but also by some on the right (including Republican "moderates"), relies on the following arguments:

1. Islam (as practiced by the vast majority of Muslims) is a peaceful religion.

This is a logical fallacy, known as missing the point. Basically, even if correct, this conclusion is completely irrelevant because it fails to address the actual issues. Moreover, for the sake of argument, even if 99 percent of the world's (estimated) 1.8 billion Muslims opposed acts of terrorism committed in the name of Islam, there still would be (approximately) 18 million Muslims who supported terrorism. And in reality, the number is much higher; reputable polls have repeatedly shown that 10 percent to 40 percent of Muslims from various nations in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa support terrorism. In the United States, nearly 10 percent of Muslims have consistently said that suicide bombings against civilians are justified "often" or "sometimes."

A lot more than London Bridge is falling down

by Mark Steyn

As I write, six members of the public are dead, and three attackers. I'm wary of weighing in as the situation is unfolding, but, though the details are always different, in the end the story is always the same. And, as I said only the other day, the reality of what is happening in Britain and Europe is that this problem was imported and that, until you stop importing it, you're going to have more of it.

No one likely to end up as Prime Minister or Home Secretary after this Thursday's election seems minded to say that, never mind act on it. Instead, we have the usual post-terrorist theatre: Congratulations for the speed of the emergency services, and sober anchormen announcing that Theresa May will be chairing a meeting of COBRA - as though a bunch of bureaucrats with a butch-sounding acronym has any clue about how to stop the corpse count from mounting. The cynical strategy of British and Continental leaders is to get their citizens used to this.
