Dispatch from the Eurabian Front: Austria, European Parliament, the Netherlands, Belgium

The Austrian authorities have indicted politician Susanne Winter on charges of incitement and degradation of religious symbols and religious agitation. This offence carries a maximum sentence of two years. Last January, Ms Winter said that the prophet Muhammad was “a child molester” because he had married a six-year-old girl. She also said he was “a warlord” who had written the Koran during “epileptic fits.”

The politician, a member of the Austrian Freedom Party FPÖ, an anti-immigration party which is in opposition, added that Islam is “a totalitarian system of domination that should be cast back to its birthplace on the other side of the Mediterranean.” She also warned for “a Muslim immigration tsunami,” saying that “in 20 or 30 years, half the population of Austria will be Muslim” if the present immigration policies continue.

Following her remarks, Muslim extremists threatened to kill Susanne Winter and she was placed under police protection. Today, the Justice Department in Vienna announced that Ms Winter will be charged with “incitement and degradation of religious symbols” (Verhetzung und Herabwürdigung religiöser Symbole). If convicted she may have to serve up to two years in jail for her opinions.

However, Alfred Hrdlicka, the Austrian “artist” who depicted Jesus and his apostles engaging in homosexual acts of sodomy during the Last Supper, has not been indicted. Nor will he be. Depicting Jesus sodomizing his apostles is not considered to be a “degradation of religious symbols” in Austria, but referring to the historic fact that Muhammad married a six-year old girl is “incitement to racial hatred.”

Neither has Mr Hrdlicka been threatened by Christian assassins for his “opinions.” The difference between Christian and Muslim extremists is that the former do not aim to kill those who offend them, but the latter do – which is perhaps also why the European authorities fear the radical Muslims and persecute their opponents while they subsidize those who insult Christians.

Meanwhile, it has become clear that only 144 of the 785 members of the European Parliament have supported the proposal of Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a former Dutch politician who lives in hiding following death threats from Islamists, to establish a European fund to protect people who are stalked by assassins for their opinions. Ms Hirsi Ali is under de facto house arrest because the Dutch authorities are only willing to protect her while she remains in the Netherlands, but not when she travels abroad. Due to the lack of protection she is confined to hide-outs in the Netherlands.

Last month, Henk Hofland, a leading Dutch journalist, proposed that the Dutch authorities lift the police protection of Geert Wilders, another politician whom radical Muslims want to assassinate for his opinions. Several Dutch individuals and organizations have lodged complaints against Mr Wilders for incitement to racial hatred because he made a 15-minute film, called Fitna, to express his views about Islam.

VNO-NCW, the Federation of Dutch Employers, has ordered its lawyers to see whether it is possible to claim damages from Mr Wilders for the loss of income which Dutch companies may possibly suffer as a result of a boycott of Dutch products by Muslims who are angry at Mr Wilders and at the fact that the Dutch have not been able to shut him up. “Companies like Shell, Philips and Unilever are easy to recognize as Dutch companies,” VNO-NCW chairman Bernard Wientjes told the newspaper Het Financieele Dagblad. “I do not know how rich Geert Wilders is, or how well insured he is, but if we suffer from a boycott, we will investigate whether it is possible to claim damages from him.” Last November, Doekle Terpstra, a member of the board of Unilever, called upon the Dutch to “rise in order to stop Wilders” because “Geert Wilders is evil and evil has to be stopped.”

Today in neighbouring Belgium the government’s anti-discrimination body CEOOR warned bloggers and websites to remove their links to Wilders’s movie. The CEOOR states that the movie aims to foster “fear, distrust and hatred of Muslims.” The anti-discrimination body has asked the Belgians to be “vigilant” and to report “cases of incitement to hatred and/or discrimination.”

Although I share some of your wariness, I must drive the point home that true freedom of or from religion has and never will exist. Despite periods of balance, wherein freedom is maximized, there is always a victorious ideology at any given time, or at least a first among equals.

 

The Islamic challenge cannot be met with libertarian laws. We require an ideology that can unite, mobilize and command, not an atomising one. Christianity is insufficient in this regard because of its waning influence and its peaceful and universalist undertones; Judaism remains an ethno-centric creed, and is therefore not univeralist enough.

@Frostbitten

Frostbitten: In 1618, Europeans were provided a lesson about fascist invaders intent on domination. They failed to learn the lesson.

 

What in creation are you talking about? Fascism had nothing whatsoever to do with 1618.

Frostbitten: In WWI, Europeans were provided a lesson about fascist invaders intent on domination.

 

Wrong again!

Frostbitten: In WWII, Europeans were provided a lesson about fascist invaders intent on domination.  They failed to learn the lesson.

 

I suppose that the Communist lesson is being ignored? Is Europe merely England, France and the Benelux countries?

 

Frostbitten: Do not expect North Americans to save Eurabia a third time, as your self-destructive mental illness has finally crossed the pond and infected us.

There was no United States in 1618!

Islam is not the reason for Eurabia's demise.

When hundreds of followers of Rev. Jim Jones followed him to South America to end their lives by drinking poison Kool Aid, no rational person (or even the media) blamed the mass suicide on the existence of organic toxins.  Observers rightly blamed those who willingly surrendered themselves, along with their children, to the toxin.

In 1618, Europeans were provided a lesson about fascist invaders intent on domination.  They failed to learn the lesson.

In WWI, Europeans were provided a lesson about fascist invaders intent on domination.  They failed to learn the lesson.

In WWII, Europeans were provided a lesson about fascist invaders intent on domination.  They failed to learn the lesson.

Eurabia still fails to understand that their demise will not be due to the existence of Islamic poison, but rather their suicidal desire based on self-loathing.

Do not expect North Americans to save Eurabia a third time, as your self-destructive mental illness has finally crossed the pond and infected us.

Degradation of symbols

Surely Islam does not have and does not permit symbols. Is Moh'd a symbol, is the Koran, is Aisha? As for 641 members of the EU "parliament" - aren't they exactly like the people who told the Nazis where the Jews and gypsies were hiding?

Mohammed did not write the Koran

I was under the impression that Mohammed was illiterate and that he dictated the Koran to his scribe.

 

Implying that Allah the all knowing dictated his thoughts to an illiterate trader who then dictated them to a scribe.  No risk of garbled messages there then.  Might it not have been easier for Allah to speak to the scribe?  Or miraculously teach M to write?  Or miraculously carve his thoughts onto stone (he'd already done it once)?

@ MarkE

The story the muslims tell is that Mohamed recited the different verses to several people over a period of years. Everytime he had a "vision" he came back and started reciting. Years after his death, some sources say approx. 50 years, those people then started writing those verbally transmitted and retransmitted texts.

Did Mohammed Write the Koran?

Whether divinely inspired or not, Mohammed may not have written the Koran. In his time, literacy was far from being as widespread as it is in the Western world today, so the Koran may have actually been written by others. In fact, even today literacy is not as widespread in the Muslim world as it is in the West.

Dance of the dh*mmis

All our wonderful, barely-elected, corrupt, self-seeking (sorry, trustworthy) Belgian, dhimmi politicians have a vested interested in pandering to the muslims: if they didn’t they would be out in the wilderness and the gravy train would pass them by. The ostrich-like, western voters will keep voting for these morons until, in the near future, they find that their own daughters are going to have to wear bin liners and be treated as disposable commodities. Then, like all appeasers, they may, just possibly, realize what they’ve done but, as always, too late.

Surrender

European leaders should just pick a time and place to meet with Islamic leaders in order to sign an official surrender. Watching the slow death of the cradle of western civilization is just too agonizing. The fact that this problem is self inflicted makes it even worse.

"Do European zombies ever wake up in the morning and envision just what future their kids and grandchildren are inheriting?"

No, because they don't have any kids. Therefore, there is no future to care about.

Good Point

Like one of them (the Mad Poodle) pointed out, they only care about having fun - "eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die".

Austria Indictment

Politicians rely on votes and given the "tight" electoral process in Austria between the two major parties, no one should be surprised at the pandering for votes from the Turkish and Muslim communities in Austria. This "swing" vote can turn an election, hence voter "information" phamplets written in Turkish and the "sacrificing" of an outspoken critic to molify this minority. As an Austrian politician informed a narcotics prevention unit, if we give you more officers, we will be admitting we have a drug problem! The Austrian Eagle might as well be an Austrian Ostrich as they bury their collective heads in the sand. Unfortunately, in the EU and elsewhere, they are not alone.

Utter Hypocrisy and Cowardice

"Depicting Jesus sodomizing his apostles is not considered to be a “degradation of religious symbols” in Austria, but referring to the historic fact that Muhammad married a six-year old girl is “incitement to racial hatred.

Neither has Mr Hrdlicka been threatened by Christian assassins for his “opinions.” The difference between Christian and Muslim extremists is that the former do not aim to kill those who offend them, but the latter do – which is perhaps also why the European authorities fear the radical Muslims and persecute their opponents while they subsidize those who insult Christians."

Yup, it's like beating up your grandmother.  Real courageous.

Does anyone know whether there has been any protest over that blasphemous piece of s*** by Hrdlicka?

yep

its 1938 all over again

People get the government they deserve.....

What's really pathetic is that this USSR style muzzling of free speech and fascist criminalizing of opinions and thoughts never pushes the EU's passive sheeple to take it to the polls in any serious manner or to the streets.

 

Do European zombies ever wake up in the morning and envision just what future their kids and grandchildren are inheriting?  And, who the hell do they think is going to rescue them from their self-imposed rot?
