Merkel boner: German Chancellor tells Germans not to attend anti-Islamization rallies

Jan 1, 2015 9:25 am By Robert Spencer

angela-merkelIt is the same story again and again and again: any voice raised against a political and social system that mandates the end of the freedom of speech and the freedom of conscience, and second-class status for women and non-believers, is consigned to “bigotry,” “hatred,” “racism,” “nativism,” “xenophobia,” etc. Those who make these charges never point to someone and say, “This person is engaging in valid criticism of Sharia and jihad terror, without tipping over into bigotry” — although Hamas-linked CAIR and others have claimed that there are such people, they have never named one, and I think it is safe to say that they never will, because for years now Hamas-linked CAIR and its allies have leveled these charges against people (including me) who were not in the least bigoted, racist, hateful or xenophobic. In reality, they tar anyone and everyone, without exception (remember Bill Maher?) with these labels if he or she dares to stand for a society that guarantees equality of rights of all people before the law, as opposed to Sharia.

The effect of this has been what I suspect was the intended effect all along: to intimidate large numbers of people (including the political and media elites) into thinking that they must not stand too strongly against Sharia, jihad terror and Islamic supremacism, because if they do, they’ll be smeared with the “bigotry” charge, which will result in their professional (and possibly personal) demonization, marginalization, and isolation.

But in refusing to acknowledge that critics of Sharia oppression and jihad terror have any valid point at all, the elites are becoming increasingly out of touch with the masses of people, who have to live with the consequences of the policies they foist upon us. By here refusing to acknowledge that PEGIDA has any valid reason to be concerned about anything regarding immigration and the Islamization of Germany, Merkel is not solving the problems that PEGIDA is calling upon her government to address. Those problems will not go away. And by foreclosing on an honest public discussion of them, Merkel is only fostering resentment among those who know the problems are real and aren’t just a question of “bigotry,” and emboldening the exponents of Islamization to become more aggressive, knowing that the government will not stand against them. All this ultimately makes it harder for there to be a resolution to these problems that doesn’t involve a serious disruption of German society.

Merkel is not alone in this, of course. She is just a clone of Cameron and Obama and Hollande and so many others. History will look back on them, if free people still exist to take that look back, as those who squandered the patrimony of Western civilization and destroyed free society in the interests of chimeras, myths, half-truths, and comforting fictions.

“Merkel tells Germans not to attend anti-Islam rallies,” by Kirsten Grieshaber, Associated Press, December 31, 2014:

BERLIN (AP) — German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Wednesday warned the country’s citizens not to participate in weekly anti-Islam rallies that have attracted growing numbers of supporters in the eastern German city of Dresden.

Merkel condemned the organizers of the protests and said they were driven by prejudices and hatred against foreigners.

The chancellor used unusually direct words in her New Year’s speech on Wednesday for the rallies organized by a group calling itself Patriotic Europeans against the Islamization of the West, or PEGIDA which have been attended by thousands.

When the protesters chant “we are the people,” they actually mean to say “you don’t belong — because of your religion or your skin color,” Merkel said.

PEGIDA organizers insist they are protesting only against extremism and not against immigrants or Islam itself, but the demonstrations have received support from far-right groups, prompting concerns that anti-foreigner sentiment might be rising….

      If a duck quacks is it a duck? Please don’t attend anti-islam rallies let the muslims murder, impose their archaic laws (sharia),don’t assimilate,work the system for free things. Please expel all non muslims from Germany that is the ultimate goal. It is time that Germans decide Germany for the people who want to be Germans or just another third world run by Muslims. Time to deport people who do not assimilate, or break the laws of the country

    I´d love to see Heide debate Merkel, unfortunately it wil not be likely to hapen, it is obvious Merkel has not the slightest honest arguments worth listening too, Merkel would be flattened. Merkel has come up from the depths of the DDR and alli its evils, she has been astoundingly succesfull, she obviously fears losing her life of untold luxuries while her country folk are killed and wounded with her imported voters, not to worry let them all come, I´m allright.

    Indeed, its appears there is a silent agreement amongst EU leaders to play the whole sinister actions of Islam down. Sweden has actually legislated to do so, keeping their epidemic of Jihad rapes away from the statisticians. In the UK the true extent of Pakistani rape and torture gangs are hidden amongst the statistics of all sex offences with commentators like James Delingpole being screamed at by a (carefully chosen) audiences in interviews for even mentioning the problem.

    What can we do? Well peacefully marching, as in Hamburg is one way. In England any peaceful marches are soon attacked by the UAF resulting in commentators always placing the blame at the EDL who are always described as a far right group. I have never heard the MSN or politicos describe Islam as a far right group, only as the religion of peace. Read A Consequence of Apathy by NR Baldwin before they find a way to stop you doing so, the truth is all in there.

    Great picture of Merkel by the way. Happy New year to all my fellow commentators keep up the good fight not only on here but on MSN comment sites. don’t let our leaders get away with taking away our voice.

      “describe Islam as a far right group”

      One really must wonder if so-called ‘journalists’ are just too stupid to realize that Islam, as written, IS a right-wing ideology (read–one that resists change) or if dealing with truth and reality would violate their style guide rules.

          One definition of ‘right-wing’:

          ‘Although the term ‘right-wing’ originally designated traditional conservatives and reactionaries, it has also been used to describe neo-conservatives, nationalists, racial supremacists, Christian democrats, RELIGIOUS FUNDAMENTALISTS, and classical liberals.”

          As Orthodox, written Islam is a complete way of life in which politics, law, and religion are one and the same, it is not a ‘far left’ organization.

        They manage to do so because elections are few and far between, the choices are not so great, with alternative candidates often expressing similair politically correct views, and mainstream media have developed into cowards with left-facist tendencies. So change takes time. In the next round of elections, those candidates who speak out and reflect the 75% majority — and aren’t nut jobs — will come to power. Merkel knows this. She’s getting very worried right now and let her mask slip earlier when she admitted the failure of multi-culturalism.

  11. marblenecltr says

    Jan 1, 2015 at 10:28 am

    Support of Islam is delivered in ways that reveal that support as too stupid to be stupid. The core of Islam is the Quran, a book of hate writing that leads to hate speech, then to hate action. Merkel’s complaint about PEGIDA’s “…you don’t belong because of your religion…” is ridiculous at best, and it reveals lack of concern for the lives, faith, and noble traditions and culture of the best of her country.
    To all, read at least chapters 8 and 9 of the Koran, then read a good history book, then a newspaper. With reasonable intelligence, you will learn that Islam is a hate religion. Don’t trip over verses that express tolerance, they have been abrogated, as seen in history from about the time of 620 A.D. until current events as seen in newspapers, through your windows, and on the street.

    A while ago, last year I think, German leftist students developed an iPhone app (Anti-Nazi) that tracks so-called ‘far-right’ rallies, and urges Berliners and non-Berliners to face them in the streets. The app developers mention nothing about anti-Jew or anti-Israel rallies (these are radical left rallies!), but focus more on the rallies in opposition to mass middle eastern immigration.

    “Berlin has become a hotspot for rising nationalism at a time when Germany has been receiving an increasing number of refugees from the Middle East and Syria.”

    Thankfully, the EU will implode soon, and Merkel’s utopia with it, especially WHEN Britain leaves the EU; as other EU countries will follow suit. The leftists are losing, and they know it. Teehee.

    The multiculturalist leaders of Europe have, I think, more or less learned that one major part of their worldview was flawed: it is not, and never was, within their power to make Muslims willingly embrace liberal western values. I think they’re quickly going to learn something else: that it is not, and never was, within their power to make native Europeans admire and embrace Islam.

  16. Don McKellar says

    Jan 1, 2015 at 10:45 am

    Did she also warn them to pay no attention to the man behind the curtain working the machinery??? “Don’t believe your lying eyes, Germany!” Merkel is saying.

    Please, please, please let the momentum keep building on this now, before it is too late. Rise up and throw these moslem monsters out of Germany whereever possible! Block their continued colonization! They are welfare-sucking, criminal organizing, gang raping, bullying, lying, murdering members of the most massive cult the world has ever seen, and they are draining your country of valuable resources and working hard to destroy your freedoms and liberty just like they have in every single country throughout history when they have colonized. All of it based on their religious texts — which anybody can read for themselves!

    As they are playing the neo-nazis actions down, when it comes to Lithuania, Latvia, Ukraine, Hungary .
    Whenever has Frau Merkel commented on the swastikas arbored on the Ukrainian soldiers’ helmets, shown in a report on German TV? She is supporting the criminal regime in Kiev who killed more than 5,000 innocent civilians in the Eastern region.

    Tolerance… Muslims do not tolerate even each other. Suni hate Shia, both hate Ahmadiyya. The teeny tiny minority of extremist muslims are the tolerant. A tiny minority becoming even tinier each and every day. But living in a majority muslim country what would you do when faced with those odds? For the teeny tiny minority of extremists silence is the only option other than an horrific death of you and your family at the hands of the majority . Silence or tolerance of the majority not only betrays the tiny minority but ourselves as well. Western politicians sell all of us out, every single one of us.

    “All this ultimately makes it harder for there to be a resolution to these problems that doesn’t involve a serious disruption of German society.”

    Islam is not the problem, our PC traitors are. This situation will persist unless we, the free peoples of the West, decide to actually do something about it.
    What’s still holding us back is our firm belief that democracy and free elections will eventually remove them from power. WRONG.
    These oligarchs will NEVER quit; they may change tactics, they may even change parties, but they’ll always be there. They must be removed by FORCE and this whole corrupt system must change.
    They must face trial and, if found guilty of high treason, executed. Nothing else will save the West.

    Many pre EU European countries made the same mistake that many here in the U.S. have: allowing and even encouraging foreign LABORERS to immigrate–rather than to enter as guest workers who would return home at the end of a specified time–typically without the need or permission to bring the family.

    The result has been a huge increase in immigration from Muslim countries (folks who brought their non-negotiable ideology with them–to stay) with a resultant birth rate that is overwhelming the native population’s culture and laws.

    Merkel’s other issue involves ‘refugees’ from Muslim countries. Because the problem already existed when she took office, it’s probably too late, politically, for her to now tell potential Muslim ‘refugees’ from such countries that she has decided to take those who will more easily integrate (and who have been persecuted by Muslims) instead and that they should seek refuge in Muslim countries.

    Surely Saudi Arabia would be just delighted to take in a few million of their fellow Muslims, eh?

    Protestors and critics of Islam “carry hate in their hearts”, she said.

    So there we are: it’s become official policy everywhere to ban all legitimate criticism and disagreement.
    Have a problem with someone? Discover any faint resemblance whatsoever to nazism, and it’s a done thing. Or claim he burned a Quran.

    Or even better: send someone for him. A minor scandal has appeared in Denmark, very minor and it’ll be ignored by everyone. In 2013 four left-wing activists were given sentences for acquiring hacked material they could use against their right-wing opponents. This is still a crime in Denmark. A national-conservative blogger smelled a rat and was by the court allowed a look into the evidence – he had received some rough treatment at the hands of Antifa during a protest, shortly after he made public the Antifa-past of a member of the Danish Parliament – and among the emails he discovered a request from person or persons unknown “in Parliament” to take care of him.

      A vague law which can be used widely by the police to harass people. Even if a jury eventually acquits, you will still have been subject to arrest, questioning, fingerprinting, DNA sampling and probably a night in the cells.

      Blueraven, In my opinion you flatter Angela Merkel. She might have a good education and be better informed than Obama and Kerry “banged together”, but evident is the fact that she does not possess the courage and decency to confront Islam for the destructive and evil force it is. Her portrayal of those who oppose the Islamization of Germany is dishonest, cowardly and demonstrates that she hasn’t the moral fibre of a crushed cockroach. If she by now, and unlike Winston Churchill did in 1899, has not yet worked out what a retrograde force Islam is, then she is not fit to the the chancellor of Germany.

      As a well-travelled young man this is part of what Churchill saw: “How dreadful are the curses Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy.
      The effects are apparent in many countries. Inprovident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property wherever the followers of the prophet rule or live.
      A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity.
      The fact that in Mohammedan every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
      Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities but the influence of the religion paralyzes the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world.
      Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith.

      If Angela Merkel has not yet concluded these harsh realities after many years of seeing Muslim violence in Germany, then she doesn’t have much functioning in her supposedly well-informed brain. Failing that she is too cowardly and politically correct to confront Islam’s reality. Either way she is serving the German people poorly and deserves to be kicked out of office.

    Swedes are saying that it is getting weirder than we realize in Europe- (And USA). Like old Europe that our ancestors ran away from. They say that there is a growing intimidation of average citizens by government and media networks. Taking names- and things they write on new sites about immigrants or Muslims or the government Even relatively mild by some standards, They say they are only doing it to dangerous people- but it turns out that it’s just regular people spouting off mostly. Who you vote for is taken down in a file on you. What material you read. What they are saying in your Church. If you go to rallies – you are photographed. Goes in a file, etc. You can lose your job. Be prevented from employment or promotion. Or worse. You go on a poop list that will is stored forever. It could get really bad when you get old. If i sound paranoid. You can look it up, if you want, to and see that i am saying the truth. The 4th amendment has gone right out the window. and they don’t have one in Europe. Angela Merkel is threatening those people.

      Some of that is absolutely true in the UK.

      Certainly the powers that be monitor comments on sites like this. It is routine in the UK for the police to photograph the protestors. Certainly, how you vote (in what is supposed to be secret ballot) COULD be collected by the authorities…the ballot paper numbers and to whom the are given are recorded.

      And yes, people are hounded out of their jobs (usually public sector jobs) if their views don’t conform the the PC norm.

Europeans are no longer in charge of their politics, their nuclear arsenals, their air forces and military command, their beloved institutions, schools, secret service, judiciary and foreign policy and financial institutions and legal systems? Taking knowledge that Muslims and others understand things differently. What will happen when they have assumed control? Why do we have to put ourselves and our children and the world, for that matter, in the position to even find out? Why is it in our interest? The interest of the world or the Western civilization to do so?

But why does the West have to turn their house over to them? Why cant they be allowed to stay for a 3 or 4 years then be assisted to return home? And in manageable numbers. so as not to destabilize the host nations. Or frighten or disturb the host population? Also they could have human rights but not civil rights within the host nation.

      During the Cold War, anyone who pointed to the obvious coordination of various “peace” and “protest” movements with the Communist/Soviet Block was derided as paranoid, “fascist,” etc.

      A good example is the British “Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament,” (CND) an obvious Communist front group that helped smooth the career path of Tony Blair and Catherine Ashton (appointed EU “Foreign Minister”).

      Many other serving senior politicians in Europe started in Communist front organizations.

      After the collapse of the Soviet Block, it was found – surprise! – that CND and numerous other front groups were, indeed, financed and coordinated by various Soviet Block secret services. Many other politicians, senior civil servants, industry leaders etc. had been bribed and/or blackmailed into cooperating with Communist secret services.

      Saudi influence-buying is obvious and admitted in some institutions (e.g. Georgetown University, Brookings, etc.) The Saudis control most U.S. mosques, owning the relevant land. However, it is likely that this is only “the tip of the iceberg,” and that 90% of Saudi influence-buying happens below the public radar.

      Under the administration of Barack Hussein Obama, Saudi influence-buying has accelerated since even limp-wristed law enforcement efforts in this area have stopped under the rule of Obama’s consigliere, the communist-trained Eric Holder.

They aren’t really that smart, just corrupt and secretive. They do control the most powerful political parties by now and are consolidating, using massive immigration to destabilize and cheapen our formerly civilized democratic republics. They pick the leadership nominees Now that Saudi Arabia etc. are getting big oil money cutbacks it’ll be interesting to see if they can still make their payments. International banking interests and their political operatives will have to step up and do some more bailouts. The CFR types may find all this Islamic violence entertaining, behind their walls.. They have help from as many destructive fools as can chip in their share of evil deeds. What other logical explanation for these massive group suicides of nations can there be?

    Also, many media outlets are helping by putting articles known to incite average people to say things. “click bait”. They even send provocateurs to go to media cites get people riled up. Then the rowdy things they say are taken down and put in a file on them. I also learned they work with law enforcement to “pay you visits” and subtly let you know they are paying attention to what you write on the internet. They even set you up with little “tests’ to see how you react. It is intimidation tactics by the government. I would understand if it was dangerous people but it is now just regular people with strong pro- nationalist feelings, pro-country, pro-European or pro-Western civilization feelings- or anti- Muslims or anti immigrant or anti- government feelings. This can go on for years. And be frightening.

    Now i know that i will be accused of being tin foil-y hatt-y. I expect it. I expect to be ridiculed. But i have spoken the truth. Angel Merkel is threatening Germans. “Warning’ them. It is getting very weird in the Western world right now.

    I also learned why every time there is a Muslims attack- it is immediately followed by some stories or professional rallies or political statements that are over the top Pro- Muslim. It has a name. It is called ‘love bomb”. It is meant to jam and short circuit reasonable emotions and conclusions that citizens will come to. They say it is for good reasons. but it is really strong crazy-making passive aggression and very calculated and coordinated by a hostile media, networks and government. It is meant to anger and humiliate average people. It is deliberate and with knowledge..

      @nationalist

      You are 100 percent correct about what you say, this may seem off topic but it is also related how the Government runs disinformation through mainstream media, for example, yesterday on the news service ninemsn there was this article :

      http://www.9news.com.au/world/2015/01/01/13/18/gun-safety-debate-after-mother-shot-by-two-year-old

      in this article the unknown author asserts that ” 30,000 thousand people ” die by guns and murder in the USA each year ( an absolute lie ) and then links Adam Lanza in the same article, several other large lies are put in there as well, of course you can put rowdy comments in the comments section, but you must let the news service ” monitor ” you e mail or facebook account by having accesses to your address book !, so wisdom tells you to not say anything to refute the lies, but the lies then get embedded in the social media and the public mind without anyone checking the truth and real facts I know also that when a member of my family worked for one of the large Police forces here, they worked in the intelligence services branch, the Police can and do turn mobile on peoples phones without them knowing, set up electronic remote monitoring or data, engage in data mining all without ones knowledge, sure this is ostensibly to catch real criminals, but more so its also used by the government to enforce those who refuse to tow the line in politics, business and whistle blowers, then there is the so subtle approach of having your bags singled out coming back from overseas, or medical files being lost or the intimidation of being your photo taken while at a group protesting loss of liberty or a pro gun rally or 100 police turning up to somehow keep ” the peace ” when you protest about Islam.

      Those in the Police intelligence circles are their to protect the government of the day, secondly their jobs, the ones high up are handpicked people who are a moral for the jobs, they are rigidly PC and tow the line, they know if they step out of line, then they will be thrown to the wolves, no lone rangers allowed and most definably no free thinkers, then there is the human error rate of mistakes such as the wrong house being targeted or the wrong information, the error rate is 10 percent in a normal data base.

      Most people who are free thinkers and quiet peaceful people see all this and are scared to speak up, what Merkel , Abbot, Cameron, Obama is doing are very deliberate, how can it not be ?, they may be many things, but stupid and willfully ignorant they are not.

    I think we have to look at the big picture when we see politicians making such ridiculous statements. Why in the freaking world would they say such stupid, clearly false things? It is because of this: They know that without a wholesale supply of immigrants, they will have to come up with some other way to pay for the masses of baby boomers who are now retiring and relying on social programs. At least that’s what they believe. WIthout a continued flow of new taxable workers, their election platforms will have to be based on real solutions that actually work as the economy changes. They are at a complete loss as to how they can do this and still get elected and stay in power.

    I would suggest they look at the Japan model, which is void of immigration, and study what is working and not working for them. Then work out some other ideas. Then formulate a real set of solutions to this 21st Century problem, rather than sticking with a 19th Century immigration model which is destroying their countries and infuraiting their citizens — sending the place towards civil war.

        The future should not be about large populations, however the ‘less technological’ nations _have_ large populations, and whose leaders are not necessarily shy about attempting to take what the more developed nations have, by force, or manufactured crises creating waves of ‘refugees’.

        The only way is, with a lower population, to have a massive preponderance of military technology and a tough ‘no’ policy to attempts to ‘shame’ us into submission.

        Our low birth rates are a concern, though. Less than 2.11 is apparently a downward spiral, and most, if not all developed countries have a birthrate less than that. Governments should have an aggressive policy of rewarding higher birthrates in the indigenous populations.

          Slightly and naturally declining populations in the world i view it as a natural collective sense of the future and possibly a good thing. There will be a temporary bottleneck of elderly to young ratio to overcome- then the future will be bright for those who come after it. And even will see a gradual increase in babies again if the natural events are allowed to occur. And not try to tamper with it by making up with large amounts of immigrants.

          Immigration is like a Mormon marriage. It is forever , even after death. So immigration policy should not be made just to satisfy the needs or ideological whims of the moment.

          Jan 3, 2015 at 12:40 am

          Yes, demography is very important, and much debated. But I agree with Nationalist that a declining birthrate is not necessarily a bad thing, even if under 2.11. Provided that all different, shall we say “cultures” decline at the same rate.

          10 years ago it seemed as if Muslims got more children than Westerners. And Khadaffi and other Muslims were predicting that Muslims would “outbreed” infidels. But gladly I learned, even from David Goldman, a.k.a. Spengler, that even Iran and Turkey had big declining birthrates.

          And all over the Muslim world, in most countries, birthrates are declining too. Maybe less than those of “infidels”, but it might only result in a increase of 23 to say 27 % Muslims of total worldpopulation and so not enough to “flood infidel countries”.

          And I for one think that when deathrates of mankind drastically fall, then birthrates should follow that fall and it seems to work out that way. You see, mice live short lives but reproduce in big numbers, but elephants live long lives, protect their young well, and are any way not much targeted by predators.

          And if humans become less like mice and more like elephants, in respect to both lifespan and number of children I think it is natural and good that humans, including Muslims, get higher lifespans and lower birthrates.

          And if Gunnar Heinsohn is correct in his theory that it is “angry young men’ when their number is a too high percentage of the population (and when many of them lack direction, sustenance and wives) that produce more war and crime, then getting a lower percentage of young men is to mankind’s advantage. Especially of young men influenced by Islam!

          You don’t have to agree with apologists like Merkel but be discerning in all things. Not all Muslims are evil( as jihadwatch makes us to believe) but it is true and clear as daylight that islam is dominated by Islamofacist groups who call the shots to return to primitive interpretations. Do lump the moderates (who refuses to submit to those interpretations) together with the islamofacists. Equally also do not be gullible enough to deny that rightwing facists maybe in charge of this anti Islam demonstrations in Germany or that the rise of neo facism is a silly thought. It might be anti Islam now but they already find it convenient to refer to them as Asians, since mono cultural, anti pluralistic rightwing sees little difference between the two.Merkel and even the Pope is right in fearing the rise of rightwing facists to replace Islamofacists especially in Europe. The danger of one evil replacing another evil is real. Be discerning. Lack of clear and firm leadership from apologetic people like Merkel might be contributory to the fulfilment of the ‘clash of civilisation’ and another world war. Jihadwatch will be equally responsible by way of their stand against reform version of koranic interpretations and their persistence in discrediting movement of the moderates. It is as if Jihadwatch is fearful that a new version of reform Islam will be more attractive to Europe than islamofacists theology. Evil and violence whether it be from islamofacists, rightwing facists or whatever facists is horrible to think about. Then maybe these evil inclinations happening today is biblical tribulation being fulfilled.

That is what some blogs intentionally or non intentionally make you perceive. The moderates have a different theological mindset and they are not liberals that some like us to think. They are no more liberals or apostate than reform Jews today who no longer follow literally the Mosaic laws and the Torah. I abhor cruel primitive version of militant Islam but truth be told that moderates do exist and bravely make their stand as in Malaysia. Having said that, let me proclaim that salvation is only found in Jesus Christ as proclaimed in the gospel the apostles taught. That proclaimation will further discredit me among some right wingers here especially the facists type.

          Barry K: So-called “moderate Muslims” are to be wholly ignored because NONE of them ever tell the truth about their “faith”. ALL of their activities amount to a form of Stealth Jihad based on the Taqiyya Principle. If they seriously believe the fallacious propaganda they put out about their “faith”, then they really are apostates.

          Even Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi (Chairman, International Union of Muslim Scholars now wanted by Interpol) publicly mocked so-called “moderate Muslims” explains it best in saying:
          “They speak not of the one Islam as revealed by Allah but of manufactured “Islams,” plural, several different Islams, which they desire to create. Sometimes they even divide Islam by regions. There is the Asian variety of Islam; then we have the African Islam. Sometimes, according to the ages, there is the Prophet’s era of Islam, Rashidi Islam, Umayyad Islam, Abbasid Islam, Ottoman Islam and modern Islam. Sometimes, according to race, there is Arab Islam, Indian Islam, Turkish Islam, and the Islam of the Malaysian… And so on and so forth. Sometimes, according to the doctrine, there is Sunni Islam and Shiite Islam. They even divide the Sunni and the Shia into divisions. New divisions have also been created; there is revolutionary Islam, reactionary Islam, radical Islam, classical Islam, right-wing Islam, leftist Islam, orthodox Islam, modern Islam and, finally, political Islam, spiritual Islam and theological Islam. Why do they invent such divisions that are rejected in Islam? The truth is that these divisions are all unacceptable in the eyes of a Muslim; there is only one Islam, which has no partners, which recognizes no other; it is the first Islam, the Islam of the Quran and Sunnah.” (“Accusing Islam with Politics”, Dr. Yusuf Qaradawi, 10/28/2011)

          Qaradawi gets this right; there is only one “true Islam” – the form practised by IS, Boko Haram, Al Qaeda, Al Shabab, Al Nusra et al.

          Barry K, I notice time and again JihadWatch’s reference to “Misunderstanders of Islam”. And although it is a joke, I think JW has a point that Islam gets understood in an un-democratic, totalitarian, patriarchal, mysoginistic, violent way A LOT. By millions of Muslims. I further noticed that many Muslims, I suspect caused by propaganda from Iran, and Muslim leaders in many places, are extremely anti-American, or anti-Western, and of course anti-semitic, or as they maintain; anti-Zionist. Something I did not notice before the fall of the Soviet Union and in the 90-ties.

          And I am beginning to hope that Muslims can be hold a little bit accountable for BIG AMBIGUITY of their holy texts, which seem MULTI-INTERPRETABLE, while at the same time IMMUTABLE. And also for the lack of central authority in the Islamic “movement” capable of defining and enforcing “reasonable” interpretation of Quran-Hadiths-Sira, especially on controversial and abundantly “misunderstood” passages.

          When you believe in a religion that is so often “misunderstood” as Islam is, then I think you can be held accountable for clinging to it, without attempting to clarify your interpretation and separate from the millions of “misunderstanders”.

          So moderate Islam cannot reform because the Koran does not allow ?But Jews can reform because the Torah and Mosaic laws and traditions allow ??? I need to tap into your theological expertise to help clarify this. Try and use same stringent standard of interpretation and application of laws and traditions for both faiths and tell me how you can justify reformed Judaism but illegitimise reformed Islam. If I can be convinced, then I will cease bringing up the issue again.
          I join you in hating to the uttermost the cruel primitive version of Islam whose practitioners dominate the religion. I support military actions and political /legislative measures to arrest their advance. But do not be hasty to stereotype moderate Muslims as some deceitful ploy unless you care to check first the voices of moderates in Malaysia. The Christians and non Muslims in Malaysia are well informed and experience enough to discern friends and foes. And I repeat, beware of facists.

          So I read the exchange between Barry K and Robyne. About Islam being one or there being different categories of Muslims. So we can assess what the “movement” “organisation” IS and what it’s members ARE.

          And what about them that we are AGAINST. And then arguments range among anti-Jihadists and Muslims and Political-Correct Multi-Culti’s.

          We can also try our utmost to define what it is that we are FOR. For instance, we are FOR the 5 pillars of Democracy; Elections, Separation of Church & State, Constitutional State, Freedom of the individual, Freedom of Speech. And we are for the Golden Rule and Human rights/ equal rights for women. We may well be in favor of our own history in the West and Enlightenment.

          In all of this, if you are FOR it, many Muslims, in many ways, can be seen as “unbelievers”, “Kufar”, “enemies”, “obstacles”, “negative deviations”.

          They, like Qaradawi, may be considered experts on Islam. Something we hate anyway, and don’t like to study. But we, we should be considered EXPERTS on what we are FOR. And united behind it. As much as possible.

          And we European Patriots, or Democratic Patriots, we may be called “positive deviations” in relation to many Muslims and many ignorant Westerners.

    The opposition party in Germany the Social Democratic Party (SPD) is even worth. The Premier of Niedersachsen (SPD) is now changing religious holidays and Eid will now be a public holiday and one Christian holiday gets dumped. http://www.qwire.net/2014/12/what-about-kosher.html#.VKTY-3u-mjZ

    The former Stasi operative ‘Erika’ needs to STFU. She is as good for Germany as Obama is for the U.S.

    Under her “management” the CDU has gone so far to the left that it just about comes out on the other end.

    And this is part of an article in the German conservative newspaper “Die Welt”: Praise for the chancellor from Morocco

    The deputy chairman of the Left Party, Jan Korte, called Merkel’s definition of Pegida “welcome”. This course but had not internalized all EU politicians. “While Angela Merkel emphasizes the naturalness that refugees are sheltered in Germany, the Union served in Bavaria and Saxony with a tightening of asylum and deportation precisely that hatred that fueled the Pegida demonstrations against refugees.”

    Praise for their comments on Pegida Merkel received from the International Islamic Organization for Education, Science and Education Organization (ISESCO), based in Rabat (Morocco). The Saudi ISESCO Director General, Abdul Aziz al-Tuwairi, called on all European governments to prevent the defamation of religions, in order to provide for greater tolerance and peaceful coexistence.

    When the protesters chant “we are the people,” they actually mean to say “you don’t belong — because of your religion or your skin color,” Merkel said.

    She’s got nothing on PEGIDA so she has to resort to falsehoods. She might as well come out and say “I don’t care what they say, if you join them I’m going to label you as a racist”.

    This is why I despise politicians.

    This is overly rich coming from the first EU leader ever to publicly state that ‘multiculturalism had failed’. Now she’s telling the German populace to cop it sweet. What a fork-tongued viper Merkel is!

    The communists tried a conspiracy to take over Germany back in 1918.
    In the end it failed. A former unemployed Vienna street artist came to power.
    He proposed a different kind of Socialism. The current Frankfurt school of
    socialism with its immigrant invasion and “political correctness” will also fail.
    The laws of nature are iron laws that cannot be broken without terrifing consequences.
    Territory has to be defended to secure one’s survival. When the men of Germany have
    had enough, you can forget about voting. If Germany and any other European nation
    has to recover its territory by violence against Islam, then violence will come.
    Nature is not ruled by money or women it is ruled by the sword,
    “In this world of eternal struggle, those that are not prepared to fight do not deserve to live.”
    “I do not permit a woman to exercise authority over a man, but to be in silence, for Eve was
    deceived but Adam was not, but because Adam listened to his wife’s voice God drove him
    out of the garden of Eden.” Apostle Paul. Merkel may have been deceived but the men of
    Germany have not. Are the men of Germany going to listen to the voice of a woman and
    allow themselves to be driven out of western civilzation?

    This was an opportunity for Merkel to lead. Instead, she falls into line with the other Western leaders and denies the people she is supposed to protect – for what purpose? Societal decline, destabilization, and ultimate destruction? Why is that her goal? Why not address the problem? You see this same behavior in every Western nation. It makes no sense; it’s a suicide pact by the Western leaders. But why?

    Michael Sturzenburger writes in his blog “politically incorrect” today, Merkel is just adding fuel to the fire with pegida,.
    my words now: like the parish priest telling the boys they should not masturbate or they will go blind.

    Merkle should be ashamed of herself! HAS SHE READ THE KORAN? I’d bet NONE OF THESE POLITICOS or Newsies have read the koran. If they did, they would see what a HATE AGENDA that awful book is – they are horrorified by Main Kampf, so goes the koran. Murder, hate, butchery, beating of wives, dislike of all that we in the West enjoy – such as music – art – singing – our dogs – free women who don’t have to be veiled by black gag bag burkas. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE IGNORANT POLITICOS? If they spent a couple of days reading the koran, they would be APPALLED at what they have signed themselves up for. I know many of us readings and commentators here HAVE read the koran and given a lot of thought to WHAT IT MEANS TO WESTERN FREEDOMS – AND IT AIN”T GOOD!
    It’s not that mohammadans want to do their own thing – they WANT US TO BE FORCED TO FOLLOW THEIR RULES ALSO. AND THEY WANT TO DO THE FORCING – example is ISIS, and yes, Saudi Arabia and the appalling way women are treated in arab counties.

    How do you condemn a religion (that you know very little about) while professing great respect for the western notion of freedom of or from religion and a long held belief in the old canard, “Islam is a religion of peace”? This is one of the primary roots of the Muslim Brotherhood’s weapons they effectively use to destroy us “with our own hands.”

    It is inconceivable that Ms. Merkel and others from western nations all over the world are so stupid as to koowingly and with intent protect the Jihadists savagely raping, pillaging and brutally murdering “infidels” around the world. Until the leaders of the so called free world stop pronouncing the politically correct gibberish blaming every terrorist act on everything and anything but Islam, Angela Merkel, Barack Obama, David Cameron, et al will continue to berate and condemn any and all activities directed against Muslims while those who know the truth gnash their teeth waiting for the condemnation that necer comes. It is a so far, never ending source of frustration.

    It seems like that Chancellor Markel is a supporter of the crime which is done against humanity by Islam . Jihadist can do criminal activity where as the general mass cannot do the protest Maya. How disgusting it it
    There should be freedom of speech

    I agree with Merkel…I call her “Saint Politician”…Savages use religions to kill…Because they having killing genes like Ottoman Turks…
    Turks killed Us but the real Muslim Arabs saved us…Read by translated poetry from Arab poets who wrote against the Turks…Who claimed they are muslims…But they are Turks
    Sons of Ginghs Khan nothing to do with muslims…They spoiled name of Islam…
    I have translated and Included in my 4 out of 14 poetry book…
    all available on many sites… Amazon, Barnes and Noble…and more
    “A poetic Soul Shined of Genocides, 2008”
    “My Son~ My sun, Chants Ann, Obama’s Mother, 2011″
    ” Bring-Out, Our Genocided Skulls and Artful Hands” will go to press soon …2015
    “Gomidas my Musical God” 2015
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Arab Poet, Assad Rustom stanzed in 1916,
    “The sons of Turks, you are never Muslims!”

    Can any human view such atrocities?
    Jesus was one of many men and women.
    Left nude on a cross
    Without even a small piece of covering cloth.

    Where was God to see?
    No place on any planet has been
    Such unbelievable cruelty
    By criminal beasts . . . so called men,
    Who not only raped and slayed, but also crucified
    And left victoms nude to dry on the wood
    Under Der-Zor burning sun,
    Their lips wet with tears till sigh.

    Which religion on earth can accept that?
    Only “Godless Turks” can commit such a crime.
    Arab poets like Assad Rustom and many others were correct
    When they wrote their stanzas . . .
    “The sons of Turks, you are never Muslims.”

    April 24, 2013
    Arab Poets During the Ottoman Era
    Poeted Sharply on the Savage Populace

    When the Arab poet, Assad Rustom, who lived in Washington, the USA,
    heard that his friends were hanged on May 6, 1916,
    he wrote a famous poem sharply criticizing, insulting Jamal the butcher:

    The sons of Turks you are never Muslims
    “Jamal—Sir!
    Your name means beauty,
    But you’re awfully ugly
    Your tongue and palms are fully dirty.
    You are senseless, criminals full of sins
    You have no spirit, no clean soul,
    Deficient of manhood humanity.”
    ~~~~~
    The Syrian poet, Nasseb Areedah (1888-1940)
    living in America wrote his untitled poem:

    “Coffin his body
    Bury his soul
    In the deepest grave
    Don’t feel sorry
    Don’t lament
    Who is disloyal
    Remain soulless dead
    Can never wake up to feel
    Yet to regret.”
    ~~~~~
    The poet, Khayr-eldeen Al-Zarkali, wrote his titled poem:

    The Arabs and the Turks
    “Those Turks the grandsons of Genghis Khan.
    Took young Arabs pushed them to a slave bazaar.
    Promised statements changed abruptly,
    Acting exactly the opposite for those held in custody
    Torturing, humiliating, insulting the braves.
    Yet on what they swore, pretending agreed.
    They are dishonest, soulless, enjoy greed.”
    ~~~~~

    The Lebanese poet, Fuad Al-Khateeb (1880-1957),
    wrote his untitled poem, blaming the Turks,

    “You Turks harmed our people in their joints so hard
    Till sword blades awoke to vengeance sharply shard.”
    ~~~~~
    The Armenians helped Jamal the so-called alsaffah (the butcher) to reach high rank in the Ottoman Empire-Astana. Later he betrayed not only the Armenians but also the entire nationalists of the Middle East. He started killing them from the Anatolian Mountains (Armenian Highland) reaching Yemen, including the holy land of Muslims, Arabia.

    The auther refers these poems in two poetry books:
    A Poetic Soul Shined of Genocides (2008) and,
    My Son-My Sun, Chants Ann, Obama’s Mother (2011)

    The above poems were translated from Arabic into English by Dr. Sylva Portoian and Daniel Janoyan from the poetry book published in Syria written by famous Arab Poets during five hundred years of Seljuk-Ottoman invasion and occupation.

    The Image of Turks by Recent Arabic Poetry (1870-1920)
    By Dr. Naeem Al-Yaffi & Maher Al-Munjid
    Published by “Dar Al Hewar”, Syria, 1995, of 236 pages

    Islam was Hitler’s favourite religion and he often expressed the wish that Islam
    had conquered Christianity.
    Mrs Merkel is in danger of being portrayed in a very unpleasant light.

  59. Littlenan says

    Jan 3, 2015 at 1:39 pm

    She sounds a very controlling woman. Don’t the German people have a right to their own ideas on what is right and what is wrong, without her demands that they do as she says?

  60. Harvey Harrison says

    Jan 4, 2015 at 7:56 am

    Merkel has no right to tell the German people what to do or what not to do. She was elected to take care of the interests of the German people and to uphold their laws and traditions, and thus has to listen to them, not dictate to them. Instead of that she is facilitating the implementation of an alien form of governance which violates the separation of church and state and one of the corner stones of western civilisation and which Islam and Sharias forecefully undermine. I do not know why this should not be treated as treason.
