 'In a generation or two, the US will ask itself: who lost Europe ?'

> Here is the speech of Geert Wilders, chairman Party for Freedom,

> The speech was sponsored by the Hudson Institute on September 25.

> Dear friends, Thank you very much for inviting me. ?Great to be

> America and the sheer survival of the West.?? The danger I see

> The United States as the last bastion of Western civilization,

> First I will describe the situation on the ground in Europe . ?
> Then, I will say a few things about Islam.? ?Thirdly, if you are

> But in all of these cities, sometimes a few blocks away from

> few visitors see and one that does not appear in your tourist

> with baby strollers and a group of children.? ?Their husbands,
> or slaveholders if you prefer, walk three steps ahead.? ?With
> mosques on many street corner.? ?The shops
> have sign s you and I cannot read.? ?You will be hard-pressed
> to find any economic activity.? ?These are Muslim ghettos
> controlled by religious fanatics.? ?These are Muslin

> There are now thousands of mosques throughout Europe .? ?With

Wow, this piece by Geert Wilders (member of the Dutch parliament and producer of the documentary Fitna) oughta be required reading for high schools and colleges everywhere, but the Tolerance crowd would never have that.

For now, back to my request for input:  In this piece, Wilders writes this:  "The war against Israel is not a war against Israel.  It is a war against the West.  It is jihad.  Israel is simply receiving the blows that are meant for all of us."

I've heard Netanyahu say similar stuff right after 9/11 (as near to a quote as I can remember):  "They don't hate the United States because the United States supports Israel.  They hate Israel because it reflects the United States."

Do the posters on this board believe that Islam hates the West in general as much as it hates Israel in particular?  Or is Israel reserved a greater portion of hatred from Islam?  I'm generally curious as to that opinion.

Shalom friends!

This is my take on the whole issue of Islamization in Europe

Firstly, Islam is a terribly weak ideology (albeit a strong religious cult) that will die out someday just like communism did. The internal contradictions are too many. Muslims are getting poorer and poorer just like the Commies in the last few years of the USSR.

Secondly, Why are the European whites not making enough kids? Islam thrives in countries with low birth rates in the West. There are two billion Chinese and Indians (or more)...why not give them European citizenship to them. Why make it easier for Arabs than Asians to get in?

Thirdly, when cultures collide, the stronger culture wins over the weaker one. Islam is a rotting culture....the Arabs and their leaders are to be blamed mostly.

Lastly, Europe's socialist policies will eventually fade out and die. The high taxes, the welfare state, the EU subsidies and other all other nonsense has to stop because Muslims historically gravitate to countries like Sweden, France and Canada where collecting money from the government is as easy as walking into the office and walking out with cash!

Contiune with being politically correct and Europe will transform into Eurabia....though I am more optimistic than most
