Cat Stevens Awarded EU Peace Prize (For Support of Rushdie Fatwah?)

Islamopop star Cat Stevens, aka Yusuf Islam, gets awarded a major Eurabian prize. This gives you some idea of just how vast and established the Eurabian networks are. They are unfortunately very real, not a conspiracy theory. Yusuf Islam is notorious for having supported the Islamic death penalty for Salman Rushdie. He also refuses to denounce Hamas.

He now gets a peace prize by the EU:

Yusuf Islam is to be awarded the Mediterranean Prize for Peace today January 4, 2007 in Naples, Italy. Yusuf is being awarded the prestigious award as a result of the work he has done to increase peace in the world. […] The prize is assigned each year to personalities of political, cultural, and artistic worlds that contributed with their actions to reduce tensions and begin an upgrading process of cultural differences and shared values in the area of the Greater Mediterranean.

The Mediterranean Award:

In 1997 the Fondazione Mediterraneo funded the  Mediterranean Prize (with its sections: Peace, Culture, Art, Diplomacy, Institutions, Social Promotion, Information, Literature, Cinema, Creativity, Architecture and Silver Dolphin). It is yearly assigned to personalities of political, cultural, and artistic world that contributed with their action to reduce the tensions and begin an upgrading process of cultural differences and shared values in the area of the Greater Mediterranean. In 2005 the Fondazione Mediterraneo in partnership with the Anna Lindh Euro-Mediterranean Foundation for Dialogue between Cultures decided to launch a special category of the ‘Mediterranean Award’ entitled The Euro Mediterranean Award for the Dialogue Between Cultures.

Our so-called leaders through the European Union are busy selling our continent and the freedom of our children down the river, and smile while they are doing it. The only way to stop this is to dismantle the European Union. All of it. If we don't do so, and soon, Europe simply won’t survive.

Is This Really an EU Peace Prize?

No. It is a prize awarded by a non-profit private organisation whose purpose is to share values, combat inequality, and construct peace, and which operates out of Italy, and whose network exists in Italy, France, and the United Kingdom. While I am sure that many leftists and those seeking greater links with the Islamic World fund this organisation, it is incorrect to state that it is part of the EU government or that its prizes are European, especially as it does not operate in every European Union member state.

Yusef

The following article raises legitimate questions about whether Yussef is as distant as is purported from terrorism.  Leaders who allow their own citizens to be ravaged by negligent policies are complicit.  Those who undertake action to prevent terrorism from being conducted against the innocent men, women and children of their country are to be supported.

Subversion and conversion cycle is virulently on..

Much like Cat turned into islamic rat, many Euros and Asians are being subverted into writing islamofascist articles or get converted into islam so that the cycle of grab politics and number politics, can go virulently on..forever and ever...
----------
EVIDENCE OF SUBVERSIVE CONVERSION:
"Idris Tawfiq is a British writer who became Muslim a few years ago. Previously, he was head of religious education in different schools in the United Kingdom. Before embracing Islam, he was a Roman Catholic priest. He now lives in Egypt. For more information about him, visit www.idristawfiq.com"

I got this from one of the Indian sites:
"sankar comments: on Jul 19 2006 1:11PM
In Kerala the land reforms did not benefot the adivasis, it benefited certain backward castes like the Ezhavas. The adivasis are still landless and living in squalor and poverty. The Government even restricts them from the forests.
The naxalite movement was mainly for the adivasis, it was concentrated in areas like Wayanad because of that.
In 2004, they sre still begging and agitating for land. The agitation was brutally suppressed and their leaders, Janu and Gitanandan beaten up by cops in public.
Nothing has changed in 2006."
_____________
The tribals (adivasis) and Harijans are still reeling under penury while the muslims are being wooed with job quotas, land, cash in vote-bank politics maneuvered by number and fear politics. Hindus seldom vote for fear of savage violence and ie why they are being ruled by the islamic minority..

And his music is bilge

The guy gets an award for being a humanitarian even though he has ties to terrorists. But worse than that he hasn't made any decent music since he was actually Cat Stevens.

Enemy of Europe

"Not the first time the non EU citizen Fjordman called for the destruction of the EU."

And it is not the first time that people who believe in freedom denounce those who do not. Fjordman is emminently qualified to speak on this subject.

It´s makes a difference to criticise the policy of a certain government/administration or to call for the destruction of a political union/country, especially if the person calling for the destruction of said union is a foreigner.

Get your facts straight

Oh please!

"EU peace prize awarded to death penalty supporter."

Could you please explain to us, why you label this award a "EU" peace price?

And describe it as a "major" award?

The award is not sponsored or financed by the EU, but some foundation.

It's like calling an award by some leftwing American group a "US peace price"

"The only way to stop this is to dismantle the European Union."

How would that stop some private foundation from giving a price to Cat Stevens?

Fjordman for President

"Not the first time the non EU citizen Fjordman called for the destruction of the EU."

And it is not the first time that people who believe in freedom denounce those who do not.  Fjordman is emminently qualified to speak on this subject.  Whether the statement on Cat Stevens was issued by the formal apparatus or by one of the favored EU outlets for dissemination of their anti-American views is of minor consequence.  The fact that some Europeans actually believe the leftist social dialogue pretending to be for the interest of their citizens is somewhat amazing.  If you choose to run against Fjordman, please state your qualifications. 

Flanders Field

It is not a question of believing "the leftist social dialogue" as you call it.
Fjordman presents this award as being The EU Peace Prize. It isn´t.
There is no such thing as a EU Peace Prize.
It took me 20 sec. to find the background informations about the Foundation behind the award using Google.
Fjordman could have done the same. If he wanted to.

Common Sense

If Mr. Shimon Peres of Israel or Mr. Murderer can be awarded the Nobel Prize for peace what is the big deal when Yusuf Islam gets EU Peace prize. Maybe he ought to support Israel so he can deserve your worthy prizes?

nonsense that causes ignorance!

What nonsense are you talking OiZNOP!! All of your comment is full of lies and assumptions. Perhaps try finding out the facts before you act as if you have all the knowledge in the world. People like you cause divides, think about it, you come across as a racist.

get yourself together and don't lie.

Why, Fjordman

Do you claim to speak on the behalf of the EU citizens ("Our so-called leaders through the European Union... "), when you yourself are Norwegian.

Fjordman is wrong

The prize is NOT awarded by the EU at all.
The Fondazione Mediterraneo is a Meditarian based organisation with no connection to the EU.

EU leaders are Collaborators

The people who are members of the EU are not the only ones who are being sold out by their leadership.  The West itself is being brought to a point where it is in mortal danger from demonic forces purporting to be religious.  The prima donnas of the EU preach anti-Americanism to their citizens and rail at American assertions of force in the world even where it is done for what is ultimately for the benefit of Europe.

 

Instead of attacking the US, they could exercise some of that diplomacy they claim to be so expert in to assist the US in military efforts to defeat the bad guys of the world.  That should be the natural thing for Europe to do. Their leaders choose not to do so and even engage in courtship with those who are clearly enemies of all of us of the West.  They exercise that privilege under the umbrella of American military protection from the USA.  They spend their money on shorter work weeks and social assurances to their people while the US taxpayer foots their bill for defense.  I doubt they even realize what the cost must actually be for their defense.

 

Maybe it is time they lost the assurance of military protection.  Assuming that the US did not exist, what would be their posture at this point in time?  There is no doubt that the EU would not survive. The citizens would lose their work week under Sharia as their time would be replaced with daily prayers.  It is incapable of protecting itself or anyone else and unfortunately for all many Europeans  believe in the mantra of diplomacy without credible force.  EU leaders are collaborators in destruction of the West.  I guess that is a difficult trait for some to overcome.

Rats for the EU

Dismantle the EU now!....

That will not happen anytime soon. The only way it will is if the citizens of the continent start revolting. Hopefully the voting down of the EU Constitution by the French and Dutch populace back in '05 was a step in that direction!

Cat Stevens is a FRAUD!

He converted to Islam to piss off his ultra conservative Greek Orthodox English father.....He has ties to notorious Islamic fundamentailist, terrorst and criminal organizations...And he was denied entry into the United States as a result!.....Hopefully he will never be allowed back here....You guys over there in the EU have a problem with your "tolerant" leaders giving this fraud a peace prize....He deserves a prize that is just the opposite considering his history....Now I understand he is teaching at some Universtiy in London (Oxford???)....Brainwashing the youths of the UK.....Nice, just plain nice!........I guess there is no way you can deport a citizen of the UK, is there?.......

Dismantle the EU now!....

That my friends will not happen anytime soon, unless the citizens of the continent wake up at start speaking out!....Hopefully, the votes by the French and Dutch Citizenry back in '05 shooting down the proposed EU Constitution is a stepping stone in that direction....

"Our so-called leaders

"Our so-called leaders through the European Union are busy selling our continent and the freedom of our children down the river...".

No offense, but what children? Europe first needs to get its collective birth rate of 1.38 children per women up into the positive range. There will be no Europe to defend without Europeans.

"The only way to stop this

"The only way to stop this is to dismantle the European Union. All of it. If we don't do so, and soon, Europe simply won’t survive."

Yes.  But how?
