Italy: “Give us back our mosques or we will pray to Allah in the Vatican”

Nov 20, 2016 11:04 am By Robert Spencer

The Pope should welcome them into the Vatican and give them a church to pray in. After all, he just said: “We see, for example, how quickly those among us with the status of a stranger, an immigrant, or a refugee, become a threat, take on the status of an enemy. An enemy because they come from a distant country or have different customs. An enemy because of the color of their skin, their language or their social class. An enemy because they think differently or even have a different faith.”

The Pope doesn’t want to be thought of us one who thinks of Muslims as “an enemy because they think differently or even have a different faith,” does he? Open up the Vatican to Muslims, Pope Francis!

“Leave them; they are blind guides. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.” (Matthew 15:14)

“Muslims in Italy: ‘Give Us Back Our Mosques or We Will Pray to Allah in the Vatican,’” by Thomas D. Williams, Breitbart, November 10, 2016:

Despite a major Muslim protest at the Colosseum against the closure of illegal mosques, Rome police have continued shutting down so-called “garage mosques,” and now Muslims are threatening to invade Saint Peter’s Basilica to pray there.

This week, authorities closed down another makeshift mosque in Rome for failure to meet building norms and for non-compliance with safety standards, the sixth such mosque-closing in the last months.

In response, Muslims in Rome have threatened to invade the Vatican to pray in Saint Peter’s Basilica, which Italian media are calling Islamic “blackmail.”

“As many as 300 people can pray here; where will we go if it’s closed?”, said a young Muslim man identified only as “Hussein,” who works in a hardware store not from one of the “Islamic centers” that police have closed.

This center is located in the eastern suburbs, a district where half of the inhabitants are Muslims and the heart of the Islamic protest against the closure of Islamic places of worship.

“We live here, we work here, we cannot go to pray in Parioli [the other side of town],” says Anwar, the president of a neighborhood prayer hall.

“The problem must be solved at the social and political level,” said Bachcu, the organizer of the Coliseum protest. “Continuing with the closings will not solve anything. A prayer room cannot be closed due to a problem in urban planning. Prayer is our fundamental right and if they insist on shutting down the mosques, we will pray in the streets,” he said.

A number in Rome’s Muslim community have suggested staging a more provocative protest in the form of a “flash mob.”

“They wanted to go and pray ‘Allahu Akbar’ throughout the city, all the way to the Vatican,” said Bachcu. “In the end we managed to stop them, but if they start these initiatives, what do we do?”

Last month, thousands of Muslims gathered outside the Roman Colosseum to protest the closures of a number of “garage mosques,” purportedly to avoid young people becoming radicalized.

During the demonstration, an imam led the group in chanting “Allahu Akbar,” as they prostrated themselves on the ground….

        Muslims demonstrate their opposition to idolatry by prostrating themselves five times a day in the direction of a stone, probably part of a meteorite, situated in Mecca, in what was originally a pagan temple before the emergence of their self proclaimed “Prophet” and his preaching and incitement of intolerance, hatred and genocide towards all non Muslims.

        I believe that I have read that 3/4 of the money which goes to support the Catholic Church and all the palaces, jewels, art, etc. come from the US. That would be a powerful incentive if some Catholics do not like the use of their money to propagandize on behalf of Islam.

    I dropped by to share with you an encouraging article on in the Express (UK)

    Video shows Trump’s new National Security Advisor brand Islam a ‘malignant cancer’

    http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/734285/Michael-Flynn-Donald-Trump-National-Security-Advisor-Islam

    Now I doubt that the Express meant it to be encouraging. They probably thought they were disparaging Michael Flynn, but they reported all the facts and I’m sure many people must feel encouraged when the see the video of Flynn stating his position…

    Critics labelled the choice “terrifying” for Muslims in America after footage surfaced this week showing Mr Flynn describing Islam as a “political cancer”.

    At a talk in August this year, the former general said: “Islam is a political ideology. It definitely hides behind this notion of it being a religion.

    “I have a very, very tough time because I don’t see a lot of people screaming ‘Jesus Christ’ with hatchets or machetes or rifles shooting up clubs or hatcheting, literally axing families on a train, or like they just killed a couple of police officers with a machete.

    “It’s unbelievable. We have a problem.”

    Mr Flynn added that Islam was “a malignant cancer that has metastasised” during the speech in Dallas hosted by the anti-Islamist group Act for America.

    In a tweet earlier this year, Mr Flynn justified fear of Muslims as “rational”.

    He has also said America was “in a world war against a messianic mass movement of evil people, most of them inspired by a totalitarian ideology of Radical Islam”.

    Mr Trump said of the appointment: “I am pleased that Lieutenant General Michael Flynn will be by my side as we work to defeat radical Islamic terrorism, navigate geopolitical challenges and keep Americans safe at home and abroad.

    However, CAIR seemed less than enthused with Flynn’s appointment…


    Ibrahim Hooper, spokesman for CAIR, said: “Mr. Flynn’s past Islamophobic statements, and his association with the nation’s most venomous anti-Muslim hate group, should disqualify him from serving in any public office.”

      I laugh when I read articles that use the term “anti-Islamist”; a clearly ignorant notion.
      Islamist: a supporter or advocate of Islamic fundamentalism
      Being an anti-Islamist is a good thing.

      Troubling, however, about Flynn and the many others who think the problem is (a) “radical Islam”, rather than written, Orthodox Islam, and (b) “radical Islamic terrorism”, as though the regular version isn’t.

        • PRCS says

          Nov 20, 2016 at 1:38 pm

          Thanks for your response, but I do imagine using the terms “radical Nazism” during WWII, or “radical Communism” during the cold war would have resulted in noteworthy public derision.

          Stating, as the general did, that “Islam is a political ideology. It definitely hides behind this notion of it being a religion.” was not at all diplomatic–for which I applaud him–and is antithetical to his repeated references to “radical Islam”.

          It’s been 15 years since 9/11.

          Time to cast diplomatic euphemisms aside.

          My thought.

        • Wellington says

          Nov 20, 2016 at 2:36 pm

          I agree here, Oliver, with PRCS. The time for euphemisms about Islam is long past. Call it out for what it is——-spiritual fascism.

          In fact, it could be argued, and I would be prepared to argue such, that continuing to be diplomatic about Islam only further obfuscates the truth about the worst religion ever created by man and thus breathes more life into this horrid excuse of a faith. While not all Muslims are evil, all Muslims are confused human beings who adhere to a religious ideology which is a mortal enemy of liberty. Enough already.

        Nov 20, 2016 at 7:46 pm

        PRCS & Wellington,I agree. My thought/comment- was in (more or less) as an answer to PRCS as to why General Flynn said ” radical Islam” as opposed to Islam, or any other terminology.

        It looks like Mr. Trump is assembling a team on NON -PCS.

        And it is about time.

        As to the worst religion created-there were some pagan religions ( since extinct) that were also bad- child sacrifice; virgin sacrifice; etc. (Although, possibly Islam took some of their worst parts-like eating the heart of a person killed, or drinking their blood. etc. Done in Syria by the terrorists –at least, was reported to have been done, a few years ago),.

        • Wellington says

          Nov 20, 2016 at 8:58 pm

          Thanks for your response, Oliver.

          Regarding the topic of the worst religion of all time, I have no doubt there were some religions, though not many, worse in what they preached, but Islam takes the cake respecting the worst religion with the greatest influence, and when I refer to Islam as the worst religion of all time, as I have regularly done here at JW, I mean it in this context.

          After all, if the decrepit religion which is Islam only had some million and half followers instead of some billion and a half followers, its place in history to date would be immensely different, now wouldn’t it? And thus proving once again that sometimes size does matter.

        The Pope is not simply ignorant, he is a Jesuit and has an Agenda.
        What the exact Agenda is, I cannot tell.

        Waht I can tell on the other Hand is, that there is a reason why the General of the Jesuits is also referred to as the black Pope.

        The reason is clear: The Jesuits are the ones who truly rule the Vatican. Benedikt was removed by the Jesuits and replaced by Franziskus.

        Benedikt was a disgrace – but at least he was right about Islam.

        • gravenimage says

          Why was Benedict “a disgrace”? He was *definitely* right about Islam.

    Muhammad says your “lives and property” are not safe from him unless you become a Muslim

    In Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, the two most canonical hadith collections:
    Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 2, Number 24:

    Narrated Ibn ‘Umar:

    Allah’s Apostle said: “I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah’s Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform all that, then they save their lives and property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah.”

    Sahih Muslim, Book 031, Number 5917:

    …Ali went a bit and then halted and did not look about and then said in a loud voice: Allah’s Messenger, on what issue should I fight with the people? Thereupon he (the Prophet) said: Fight with them until they bear testimony to the fact that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is his Messenger, and when they do that then their blood and their riches are inviolable from your hands but what is justified by law and their reckoning is with Allah.

    It is interesting that the Pope, when listing 7 things that can alienate an immigrant, he cites “a different faith” last, as if it is the least important factor. He knows full well that to Muslims, their faith is not just the most important factor, it is the only factor. The Pope has surrendered to Islam. Muslims will not have to invade the Vatican, Francis will welcome them inside with open arms.

  12. Stan Lee says

    Nov 20, 2016 at 12:18 pm

    These migrants explain how dire is their situation, but it is not enough for them that Italy takes them in to relieve the insecurity the migrants suffer, still they come with demands to confiscate Italian Christian churches to convert them to mosques. Obviously, despite their trying experiences, they are only too ready to forget their “memorable” hardships and to give Italy their (the migrants) conditions to be met, or they will not behave as peaceful people grateful to be in safe places.

    They want it all, whatever they can connive, or the specter of terrorism threatens to rear its ugly head by these same migrants. So, which is it? Assimilating to peaceful and tolerant conditions, or the eternal Muslim motivation for conquest of a land at peace regardless how desperate these migrants would seem to be for life’s basics.
    ,
    Obviously,to just live in a land of plenty where people are respectful of Italian laws is not satisfactory to them. It brings to my memory the old tale of the camel begging the Bedouin to be allowed to poke his head into the Bedouin’s tent in the midst of a sandstorm. Soon, through the camel’s appeals to just enter more of itself into the tent. the camel has taken the entire interior of the tent and the Bedouin no longer has his shelter.

    It should also be known to these migrants that only Italians or those able to prove past Italian bloodlines can be recognized as, or acquire Italian citizenship. This is part of Italy’s Constitution. Had the EU not acted recklessly, North Africa is large enough to have resettled these migrants, where customs, language, and religion would have been a more successful integration for these migrants. Besides The EU and No. America are in dire financial straits, and perhaps could have provided these migrants with basic sustenance, but can hardly build for them a world-class economy.

      Nov 20, 2016 at 1:02 pm

      Some (like 10 or so, I think) THE FINANCIAL TIMES (British business paper-is, or was then, unique-printed on PINK paper) had an opinion piece about the Muslims and the Middle East.’

      IN HIS VIEW, the oil wealth was a CURSE NOT A BLESSING to the Arabs/Muslims- they did not have to learn how to do anything else (ie. agriculture; manufacturing, etc).

      The Jews, on the other hand, with no large scale natural resources, had to sue their brains, and develop things.

      Still true today. The Muslims need water- but rather than train engineers and see the possibility of desalinization, they train (?) imams, and group think. They need food- but don’t ahve schools of agriculture.

      About a year or two ago ( DON’T THINK it was on JW) a Pakistani (probably murdered by now) said that the poverty in Muslim countries is the FAULT OF THE MUSLIMS. He compared the number of colleges and universities by countries and also religious groups and by per capita. Muslims were LEAST in per- capita (per 100,000).

      While much of the US secondary education seems to be going off of a cliff–I Think that the situation is more concentrated at the elite schools, and not so much at the less elite schools. (Some -perhaps many) state colleges are trying to emulate the elites). (That is why some recent college grads cannot find jobs- they did not learn marketable skills).

      • gravenimage says

        Nov 20, 2016 at 5:46 pm

        Muslims did not unearned oil wealth for hundreds of year, and they didn’t learn to develop anything then, either.

        I’m sure if Israel did have large natural resources that it would be just like the US or Canada–that would be one aspect of the economy, but not the whole enchilada, as in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States.

        The fact that the standard of living is higher in Israel than in Muslim states with large oil reserves shows–as you note–that natural resources are not everything–an innovative spirit and willingness to work hard are far more important.

          ALTHOUGH I do agree with that.

          Other examples include Zaire ( formerly first Belgian Congo then Congo) and ( as farmers/farmland) Zimbabwe , formerly Rhodesia. (When Rhodesia the breadbasket of southern Africa, as Zimbabwe, a basket case,with mass starvation).

          And I agree with your example of Zimbabwe. My understanding is that Zimbabwe is one of the richest nations on earth in terms of natural resources–yet they are so badly governed that they cannot even feed themselves, and their citizens have to immigrate to find work

          Then there are nations with few natural resources that do very well. One of the first was the Netherlands in the 17th century, which made fortunes from free trade and high-quality crafts.

          Other examples today are Japan and–as you note–Israel.

          An abundance of natural resources are just a perk–it all depends on what you do with them.

      Yes, bags of room in North Africa, plus millions af acres of space in saudi Arabia dn Qatar. Mosques plentiful and Sharia rules.
      What more could they want?

    I am italian and I think, if they want to pray in the Vatican, I am with them. Send them all to the Vatican City and close the gates. The pope is always advocating for them and asking for more and more for whatever reason (biblical or sociopolitical), while putting the blame on anybody else.

    A part of me would take grim satisfaction in watching the mob stink up the Pope Pancho’s residence. But the Vatican, like the Coliseum, is too much of an artistic and historical treasure to waste on infantile revenge fantasies.
    Art and history are destroyed wherever Islam invades. It’s not just ISIS that wrecks heritage of our ancestors. What they don’t obliterate in successive waves of vandalism, they let the sand cover up for centuries.
    Which ironically, was good for future generations. It was Western scholars who retrieved our human birthright from the Ottomans. The Italians must fight the beginning of the second Dark Age.
    Islam, the Religion of the Wasteland.

    RE: The pope.

    Correct me if I am wrong.

    But, I have a faint memory of -perhaps 15 or so years ago, maybe more- A MUSLIM TRIED TO ASSASSINATE THE POPE. Is that correct? or, was it a deranged Baptist married to an Amish woman?

    It seems all the countries of Europe will soon have right wing governments after the next elections.
    Who can blame the people after being forced to accept these naive and stupid policies of their governments. Hollande of France will be the next to go !!!!

    • Oliver says

      Nov 20, 2016 at 7:59 pm

      Hollande of France got some 95% of the Muslim vote last time around. (Here, Clinton probably got 100% of the votes of deceased people-probably why her popular vote is going up- the votes of the dead are counted,those of the military people destroyed).

      I doubt that he will get less, and there are probably enough Frenchanal pores with the PC correctness to keepelecting him. As well as others on the dole.

      I would like to see him lose, however, along with the other lefties.

      • Carolyne says

        Nov 21, 2016 at 12:03 pm

        I read that three to four million illegals voted. That’s where this late counting is coming from. The poll workers thought they wouldn’t need them and they didn’t but not for the reason they thought, decided to count them anyway.

        • gravenimage says

          Nov 21, 2016 at 4:40 pm

          Part of the late counting is from mail-in ballots. I used a mail-in ballot myself–these are not all from illegal aliens, by any means.

    Not one of these “protests” – not one – is spontaneous.
    Muslims do as they are told – in Submission: Islam means Submission.
    If they do not obey they are beaten.
    The muslim community “possesses no power except to acknowledge and obey”, said Dr Salah al-Sawy, the secretary-general of the Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America.

    WHY did Italy allow Muslims into their nation to begin with???

    What is wrong with them?

    Deport them all back to Syria immediately!!

    • Carolyne says

      Nov 21, 2016 at 12:06 pm

      For the same reason all Western countries did. They thought they would get new workers, not understanding that Muslims are too lazy to work. But they got a lot of new voters who will vote for them because of all the free stuff. It would end if a rational government were elected. I have great hope for the United States.

  23. gravenimage says

    Italy: “Give us back our mosques or we will pray to Allah in the Vatican”

    Another token gesture like banning organizations. Start sending them back. Nobody has a right to live in Italy but Italian citizens.

      Nov 21, 2016 at 12:08 pm

      Well, George Clooney and his left-wing Lebanese wife live in Italy. She recently criticized the election of President-Elect Trump. She is not a citizen. She has no say in the matter.

      • Angemon says

        Nov 22, 2016 at 7:11 am

        George “Trump is not going to be President” Clooney and his wife can both move to Lebanon for all I care.

  25. Oliver says

    Nov 20, 2016 at 8:01 pm

    Perhaps they should all migrate to Venice (Italy, not Florida) and pray in the canals there.

    • Carolyne says

      Nov 21, 2016 at 12:09 pm

      Maybe someone could throw them a bar of soap?

    • gravenimage says

  26. Sam says

    Nov 20, 2016 at 11:45 pm

    I know I should not think this way but I would love to see muslims demanding Vatican doors be opened for them to pray to their Allah. I would love to see the face of Pope the idiot in such incident.

  27. Dennis says

    Nov 21, 2016 at 12:10 am

    It might be a good thing if the Muslims violated the Vatican. In Israel some wonder if a bomb misguided from the Gaza would destroy the Temple Mount. These two actions would be watered down to: Muslims have a nice interfaith picnic inside St. Peter’s and the desert winds accidentally blew a missile into the Western Wall!

  28. josmile says

    Nov 21, 2016 at 2:39 am

    Looks to me like the Muslims want their own rules – i.e. exemption from building norms and safety standards.

  29. Expat88 says

    Nov 21, 2016 at 5:36 am

    This is such a bogus problem for these Muslims in Italy. They can pray in their homes. They don’t have to have a mosque to pray in during the week. I lived in the Middle East for many years and most Muslims that I knew would only pray in the mosque on Friday at the noon prayer. The rest of the time they were just saying their prayers in their homes or in small groups in a prayer room that wasn’t even a proper mosque. So all of this is just a manufactured problem once again to try to get the Western World to give in to their demands as always.

  30. Susette says

    Nov 21, 2016 at 10:10 am

    I am saddened and angered to see these invaders in my ancestral homeland. The Romans accomplished so much in such a brief period with their architecture, derived solely from their intellect. The ancient Egyptians and Persians were equally accomplished. Post-muhammad, islamic architecture is stolen from Roman, Byzantine, Chinese and Indian influences. They create nothing on their own. Even in modern-day muslim countries, they depend on the West to design and build. They are robbing us of our heritage sites by invading and dehumanizing the architectural accomplishments of our ancestors with their a$$es in the air. To me, that position the true face of islam.

    • Carolyne says

      Nov 21, 2016 at 12:12 pm

      Equally horrible is the destruction by ISIS of the ancient monuments in Iraq and wherever those semi-humans invade.

      • Susette says

        Nov 21, 2016 at 1:31 pm

        Yes, what little they had in ancient ruins, is being destroyed by their own evil islamic religion. Can you imagine Catholics invading the Vatican and destroying the Sistine chapel, the Pieta, etc., etc??? It’s beyond the imagination how much more destructive mohammed’s people can become.

        • gravenimage says

          Nov 21, 2016 at 4:47 pm

          Yes–Muslims will do the same in the civilized West as they do in Dar-al-Islam if we don’t stop them.

  31. Cretius says

    Nov 21, 2016 at 10:16 am

    The Pope meets the definition of a useful idiot. He provides no end of humour for Muslims.

    • PRCS says

    I could not be more pleased with President-elect Trump’s selection of General Flynn. He is proving to me that I voted correctly.

    • Oliver says

      Nov 21, 2016 at 10:46 pm

      Carolyne. In my opinion. Pres. Elect Trump could put old shoes and smelly socks in his cabinet and advisory positions
      And they would still be
      At minimum
      In my view. Anywhere from 20,000 times better than a Hillary Clinton administration
      Heaven forbid
      To 23,000,000 million times better.

      At least P.E. Trump will not have Muslim advisors.

  33. Daniel says

    Nov 21, 2016 at 12:59 pm

    They need to leave and understand that if Christians went to Mecca and invaded the city to pray that they would all be beheaded. Get real and understand the significance of what they are trying to do.

  34. Carolyne says

    Nov 21, 2016 at 5:06 pm

    Within a week, this sweet little hotel will become a pigsty–all the alcohol ill disappear and since these people don’t knowhow to correctly use a toilet, they will all be broken because they climb up on them instead of sitting. You cannot put uncivilized prehistoric peoples among modern civilized humans and expect something good to come of it.

    I wonder if the Mafia is going to take this lying down.
    Imagine a Don having to share his turf. They are already fighting them and I never thought I would cheer for the Mafia.

  36. Eric Jones says

    Nov 21, 2016 at 11:31 pm

    Every country has the right to protect itself from babarians. Italy should not allow any more Muslim immigration. Italy should close down all the mosque. Muslims can pray at home. If they pray in the street arrest them. As far as their threats , call their hand. Give them what their hand calls for.

    They don’t pray in public as a demostration of piety, but as a tool to show dominace in controlling a public space.

    Eric

  37. Y says

    Nov 22, 2016 at 9:27 am

    No they are telling the ITALIAN government they will not follow the laws.
    They won’t get into the Vatican to pray because it is surrounded by a mighty WALL.
