The Muslim community in Switzerland has condemned the advert but said on Monday that it would not make a formal complaint.

Why should they? After all every spineless group and media outlet that is just willing to keel over for them, seems to have done their job instead.

Whoa! Go-Switz-Go!

If only the truth be allowed to flow unhindered, the demographic designs of the ummah will be laid bare beyond any reasonable defense.

Oh, and here's a link in today's NYtimes where an iraqi jihadi griup kidnaps 2 Italian female aid workers and promises to 'do with them' whatever it takes to 'burn the hearts of Berlusconi and the Italian people'. My god, what apalling obscenity this is!

Where is the offence in publishing birth rates? Why do Muslims find it offensive, when they do have the highest birth rate by far compared to anybody else in Europe. The advert didn't say that Muslims were bad people, or that Islam was a bad religion, it merely stated facts based on statistics. Why are facts so hurtful to Muslims? Could it be that facts and statistics are really and truly alarming?

My goodness muslims are a sensitive, fluffy bunch...I cant think of anything that doesnt offend them....well...except beheadings, suicide bombers, the killing and mutalating of innocent Jews and Christians, killing small children, sending their own children off to blow themselves up...the list goes on. As for the large birth rate...anyone with eyes can see that, I never see a muslim family around town with less than 5 kids, and having a large family if fine...living off the taxpayers while you pump out a kid every 11 months is not....

In 1946 the government of Czechoslovakia decided, given recent events, and given the history of German aggression in Eastern and Central Europe, to expel 3 million citizens of the Sudetenland, all of them ethnic Germans. Many of them, but not all, had been willing collaborators of Hitler. Germans had lived in the Sudetenland for some 600 years. Yet they were expelled, and no one in the civilised world thought that was wrong. Poland did something of the same; so did Russia in Koeningsberg, which was renamed Kaliningrad. The argument was simple: given reasonable fears of what such a population might do in the future, based on study of the past, we have a right to take such precautionary measures.

It is crystal clear that unless the peoples of Western Europe take immeditate steps to limit, and reverse, the size of their Muslim populations, those countries will become Muslim. This will mean the slow, or rapid, asphyxiation of what remains of Western civilzation in Europe. It will come about purely as a matter of the ignorance of Islam, amounting to criminal negligence, of European elites, who have betrayed their own peoples and polities as badly as any Quisling, and with far graver because potentially permanent consequences. And that criminal negligence has been compounded, of course, by the deliberate overbreeding, often at state expense, of Muslims who see these Lands of the Infidels as theirs by right. They are not grateful to be admitted; they have a "right" to be admitted. Their language, in Europe and in America, is instructive: "This is our nation" said a leader of the Muslim gathering in Illinois a week ago. "We are here to stay" is what Muslims at a Muslim school told an inquiring reporter a year or two ago. Not: "we want to be part of America"; not "we love America too." No, not at all:"this is our nation," "we are here to stay." The refusal to study, and to study sufficiently so as to really understand the Muslim worldview, is a great and even suicidal failure. From Jajjah in Belgium, to Tariq Ramadan, to Mullah Krekar in Norway, all of these people are mightily offended by the idea that they owe any loyalty at all to the Infidel nation-state. Some explain to their hotheaded followers that, for now, in order to conduct Da'wa quietly, under the radar, it is better to be more rather than less accomodating. But the desired goal is the same as that of Qaradawi, or Hassan al-Banna, or Bin Laden, or any other Believer: to spread Islam until it covers the globe. What makes anyone think that that, the central political tenet of the highly political belief-system of Islam, has changed in the slightest? There is no evidence for that.

And therefore, if you are a European, or if you believe that European civilization is important to your own (as many Americans do), you have to decide on a course of action. At a minimum, all Muslim migration to the Lands of the Infidels must stop. If the Muslim lands have the highest birthrate in the world, it is no accident -- they regard children, as the Palestine Authority keeps saying, as their secret weapon. Fine. Let that secret weapon be bottled up, and let them, not the Infidel world, deal with it. Then, the wholesale movement of all Muslim non-citizens back to their countries of origin, as a safety measure, should be undertaken. And finally, as to those who managed to acquire citizenship, rather than accomodate in every possible way Muslim demandss, ranging from exceptions to sound-pollution laws for mosques, to demands for prayer-rooms in schools, should be rejected. The Land of Infidels can be made Muslim-friendly or Muslim-hostile. If one thinks Western civilization, however silly and stupid it looks and certainly is at times, is worth saving, the "Muslim-hostile" approach has to be employed. And all those who demonstrate, in any number of ways, that they committed perjury when they swore allegiance to the Infidel nation-state, but really owe their allegiance only to the umma al-islamiyya, should be stripped of that citizenship. The same no-nonsense attitudes that were used against Nazi sympathizers (all of whom became very quiet when America entered the war -- and some, including tenured professors, lost their jobs as enemy sympathizers) should be employed now. The situation is graver, and will not get better.

Funny isn't it? Some Muslim countries are so racist/apartheidist (Saudi Arabia, Jordan) that they bar Jews from entry altogether (even though those same countries may have had significant Jewish populations prior to the establishment of Israel)and severely limit the free movement of people of other non-Muslim faiths and feel thoroughly justified in doing so, but when the shoe is on the other foot...

The Swiss obviously don't understand the threat or are too cowed to do anything about it. Yes, as Hugh has stated, Muslim langauge is instructive. They intend to stay and to make our lands theirs, and on top of that to make over our lands into Muslim lands with us as their dhimmis.

We are still in control at this point and we can take action to assure that the rights of the majority will not be trampled by those of any immigrant group, especially one that has an "in your face" mentality.

Accommodation of Muslim demands must be denied or we will find ourselves in similar circumstances with that of Sweden, that now has a whole city that is Muslim where no Muslim dares go, or France that has Muslim neighborhoods where the police won't go. (Sounds like Fallujah to me!) Perhaps we will become like Nigeria where Christians are being slaughtered by Muslims for a land grab and so on. Non-Muslims accommodating Muslims ALWAYS end up on the short end of the stick.

The Muslims have been hurt by this advert because it points out the painful truth, and Muslims hate that. They don't want the unsuspecting, nice dhimmis to know what's happening right under their noses. They'd prefer the oblivious nice dhimmis to think everything is wonderful so that they can be taken by surprise by the sheer numbers and hence not be able to do anything in the meantime to stop this inevitable suffocation of Europe by Islam. And USAgirl, you're on the right track there about the large families on welfare. This is another painful fact they don't want pointed out to the hardworking nice dhimmis who might start protesting that their hard-earned, high-taxed dollars are being wasted on welfare bludgers.

The advert is pointing out facts. 72% by 2040! Bye, bye Switzerland, hello Switzerstan, yet another filthy, miserable Islamic hellhole.

The Swiss were so particular during the Nazi era not to let their country's ethnic makeup be compromised by Jews fleeing Hitler's murderers that they only allowed them short-term visitors' visas.

It is surprising that in recent years, the Swiss, along with the rest of the Europeans, would allow not only an ethnically incompatible but parasitic element to swarm into their land. The danger of these parasites is that they eventually take over the host on whom they are feeeding.

Is America immune from this invasion of the parasitic disease? Not according to what the parasites themselves are announcing:
