Wakey, Wakey, Little World….
From the New York Times, no less, comes this unusually unbiased report:
BRUSSELS, Oct. 10 — “Europe appears to be crossing an invisible line regarding its muslim minorities: more people in the political mainstream are arguing that Islam cannot be reconciled with European values.
“You saw what happened with the pope,†said Patrick Gonman, 43, the owner of Raga, a funky wine bar in downtown Antwerp, 25 miles from here. “He said Islam is an aggressive religion. And the next day they kill a nun somewhere and make his point.”
Jack Straw has gotten a lot of support in the face of the usual islamic screaming for raising the issue of whether muslim women should be veiled in his office. This shows that the Brits are perhaps getting a little tired of being nice to the nasty muslims? The British Socialist and Communist newspapers are going apewah over this, calling him “anti-muslim” for wanting to see the faces of the people he talks to. That should set real well with the common bloke, eh? That simple remark has all Britain looking at Islam with more open eyes.
All over Europe, people are waking up more and more to the reality of the Monster in the house, and liking it less and less. In Belgium, “Belgium’s far-right Vlaams Belang has become the latest populist European party to make significant electoral gains. The anti-immigration Flemish separatist party won a host of seats in regional elections yesterday.” You can bet they’re going to start kicking out the muslims, too.
Even the Arabs are starting to whine about it. ARAB NEWS “It’s becoming hard to keep up with the steady stream of attacks on Islamic or its traditions coming out of the mouths of Western political and religious leaders. It’s almost as though hunting season has been declared.” Snivel, snivel….
And this article that has been reprinted even in Arab circles including Syria: By JOHN L. ALLEN JR., No retreat from ‘reciprocity’ challenge Wherein the Pope reiterated his challenge to Islam to allow equal freedom of religion to Christians.
The wave hasn’t crested yet, it’s still just a roller and a long way offshore, but it’s growing higher. When it crashes onto the shore that roar will be the world answering NO to Islam. The sleeping giant is awakening.

Ban IslamEuro ‘Centrists’; Having to Acknowledge Muslim Threat…
This seems significant. “Right Wing Extremists” are not the only ones noticing that Islam cannot be “tolerated” in progressive, enlightened countries. Now, self-described “centrists” in Europe are willing to say out …

WooHoo, and its about damned time too! Great posts, been reading but silently. Even here in far left deep south there is a sentiment of anti-islam rising in numbers. People have not gone cold in their hearts remembering the attacks in the 90’s by islam. They are seeing with eyes wide open what Chavez is doing, and his popularity is dwindling rapidly within his own borders of tyrany. Even if the politicians wish to ignore the beast that is laying in wait for their blood, the average joe is awake and screaming about the evil…Islam.

Amen. It’s about time. Excellent post. I’m not sure Jack Straw meant to stir up as much news as he did with his comment about ‘veils’.
I was busy all day, but hopefully will be back to posting tomorrow.

I do fear that all of this may be a sop to prevent people from turning to the Nationalists Parties, as the main Parties votes drop away. However, even if this is so, people will now feel free to make their voices heard and having become thoroughly disillusioned by the disastrous policies of the recent past, and the blatant bias against the indigenous populace, are very likely to look in a new direction. Once you have woken up there is no going back!
