“We want to make clear to Europeans that Islam is part of European civilisation and that it isn’t a recent import but has roots going back 13 centuries.”
Indeed, but Islam’s presence in Europe was always about invasion and conquest. It was never an integral part of European civilization, and this new Muslim migrant influx is…about invasion and conquest. How bitterly ironic that “after the Paris attacks in November 2015 and the Brussels bombings in March 2016, authorities and organisers were forced to postpone the arrival of the touring exhibition in the city.” But they didn’t wake up.
“‘Islam, It’s Also Our History!’: EU Funded Exhibition, Featuring Fake Bomb, Opens After Terror Delay,” by Liam Deacon, Breitbart, September 21, 2017:
A European Union (EU) funded exhibition, called ‘Islam, It’s also our history!’, has opened in Brussels after months of delays caused by Islamic terror attacks and security concerns.
The project tracks the impact of Islam in Europe throughout history, focusing on positive achievements in medicine, philosophy, architecture, and food, as well as the migrant crisis and recent terror attacks.
The exhibition includes items of historical interest, as well as “artistic” installations showing the full-face veil and fake terrorist bombs.
The project, in the EU’s capital, has cost the European taxpayer €2,500,000 according to the website of the European Commission, the unelected executive branch of the EU. A statement claims:
“The historical evidence displayed by the exhibition – the reality of an old-age Muslim presence in Europe and the complex interplay of two civilisations that fought against each other but also interpenetrated each other – underpins an educational and political endeavour: helping European Muslims and non Muslims alike to better grasp their common cultural roots and cultivate their shared citizenship.”
Isabelle Benoit, a historian with Tempora, the organisation that designed the exhibition, told AP: “We want to make clear to Europeans that Islam is part of European civilisation and that it isn’t a recent import but has roots going back 13 centuries.”
However, after the Paris attacks in November 2015 and the Brussels bombings in March 2016, authorities and organisers were forced to postpone the arrival of the touring exhibition in the city. Organisers also struggled to find a venue as many were concerned that the event would attract controversy.
The exhibition finally opened on the 15th of September at the Vanderborght Building, which is owned by the Brussels city authorities.
“Should we cancel it or at least postpone it until happier circumstances? Definitely not, we believe,” the website insists. “It is precisely because the timing is tragic that it is important to show our contemporaries the extraordinary richness of this history, which has helped to make us what we are.”
In fact, the event’s website claims that the timing of the event, during a wave of Islamic immigration and terror, is significant and some installation references the migrant crisis and Islamist attacks.
An installation by Danish artist Nikolaj Bendix Skyum Larsen commemorates migrants who have drowned attempting to cross the Mediterranean Sea, and an installation by a U.S. artist, Gregory Green, shows a Louis Vuitton case with a fake bomb inside.
The website says: “It turns out that our exhibition comes at a very relevant time in history when the meeting between Europe and Islam is witnessed by citizens from the continent in all its tragic manifestations – massive and chaotic waves of immigration, senseless terrorist violence, feelings of alienation, incomprehension and hostility.”
The opening of the exhibition comes as the EU releases a report claiming Muslims are discriminated against in the labour and housing markets in Europe due to their names and the way they dress….
Tonton Macoute says
I have nothing in common with Islam and proud of my Swiss and Italian ancestors. Mercenaries meeting artists.
Johnny Cuyana says
Tonton M., What? Do you not mean: barbarians meeting civilization [artists]?
There is little, if anything, that the death cult muhammedanism has to do with “mercenaries” … at least in the mortal sense; they are barbarians because they are [evil] religious fanatics with broken moral compasses.
Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
Johnny, I think Tonton Macoute is referring to the Swiss Guard when he says, “Mercenaries meeting artists.”
Correct me if I’m wrong, Tonton.
BTW, your comparison of the Swiss and the Italians made me think of the very famous The Third Man Orson Welles’ Cuckoo Clock Speech:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyuJQ_UO7OE
gravenimage says
Despite some broad cultural differences, the Swiss and Italians are both high civilized cultures.
We cannot say the same for Islam.
Shane says
The Islamic culture is violent and misogynistic at its core. Feminists who favor mass Muslim immigration certainly are not looking out for the welfare of Western women and children. Today’s feminists are FemiMarxists who are more concerned with promoting misandry, spreading the wealth, creating chaos, and destroying America and Western Civilization by destroying the institution of marriage. Women cannot have it all unless they are very wealthy and have servants.
gravenimage says
Shane, your idea that it is just “feminists” who are clueless about Muslim immigration is mistaken.
Rob Porter says
Johnny, I’m sure that in you case I really don’t need to add this, the “broken moral compass” is now also that of most of the West. The organizers who portray Islam as having any civilized penetration into the West are simply disgusting liars – probably funded by Muslims! The Muslims in 711AD invaded Spain and were finally ejected only in 1492. In 732AD they invaded France and were thrashed by Charles Martel in the battle of Tours. For about 400 years they plagued southern Italy and Sicily with their savagery that ended only when the crusades were launched. How does this utter rubbish equate to Islam being part of European civilization? I marvel at such mentally deranged liars and the fools who fall for such deception. When did British and European women walk around in such ugly dress and masked as if in enslaved chattels
carol says
Rob says…”The organizers who portray Islam as having any civilized penetration into the West are simply disgusting liars – probably funded by Muslims!”
But of course! – the tenor of the opening salvo reveals all: ““We want to MAKE CLEAR to Europeans that Islam is part of European civilisation and that it isn’t a recent import but has roots going back 13 centuries.”
Root canal anyone?
Rob says
The great normalisation move.
Richard says
“…interplay of two civilisations that fought against each other but also interpenetrated each other…”
The Muslim migrant rape gangs certainly are carrying on that fine tradition of interpenetration.
Darryl Kerney says
Exactly.
And it’s obvious when looking at the islamic majority countries that western culture has not penetrated in any significant way, as always with islam,
It’s a one way street…..
gravenimage says
Grimly spot on, Richard.
Johnny Cuyana says
Richard, your point is well taken.
I will add only that, with respect to that particular quote which you pulled, I will take extreme issue with the phrase “two civilizations”; where the death cult fundamental muhammedans are hardly an entity which I would characterize as a “civilization”; rather they are barbarians not much removed, philosophically, from the 8th century. Damn them all … and may everlasting misery and suffering be upon their psychotic false prophet.

Yes–we are being invaded by barbarians. Islam is a civilization in only the most reductive anthropological sense.

Islam is part of European history in the same manner as the Black Death is.

CogitoErgoSum, exactly … and, why more freedom-loving Westerns cannot see this — as plainly as the clear light of day — is simply beyond me.
[Hmmm … maybe they are not that interested in freedom. I suspect this to be true for many; however, more likely, IMO, is that they are suffering from the brainwashing as spooned-out by the pro-globalist govt schools.]
aDhimmiSaysWhat? says
You wonder why most westerners can’t see this? The answer is that it makes them feel good to welcome people from a different culture. In their hearts, they know they are good people for doing so. And that you and I are horrible, racist bigots for opposing it. And since this is the prevailing notion, most people agree with them. So their opinions and feelings are reinforced by a majority of the people, making them even more secure of their stance. What will make them see reality? I have no idea. I think probably Robert Spencer and Jihadwatch are a good start
Greyhound Fancier says
Except worse, because causing unnecessary suffering is a fair working definition of evil.
The Black Death was a true tragedy. Islam causes suffering deliberately.

I had exactly the same thought while reading the article …Islam is a plague brought to Europe by the Hijrah and by war rather than rodents. Infested with flees.

Here’s a brand new interview in English from a son of an Egyptian imam. The person interviewed is Hamed Samad and this is not the Finnish mainstream (politically correct) TV, but a religious, adventist media. A very fresh, realistic and truthful interview, in my opinion. He is talking precisely what the article is about!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9tjau4gA5Q

He’s is well known in Germany and of course denigrated and smeared by leftists. Thanks for posting this interview and making Hamed Samad know to JW readers.
Alien Republican says
BaZ: Your mother, who lives in Cairo, advised against writing the book* on “Islamic fascism”.
She saw what happened after my book “My Farewell from Heaven”. After a lecture in Cairo, there were calls for murder against me, death threats and insults. My mother is afraid that I am now in danger again. But I had to write this book because I don’t want to give in to the logic of the fundamentalists.
What is their “logic”?
They want to intimidate me and all those who criticise, intimidate and silence Islam. Those who give in to this pressure are doing the Islamists a favour and are asking them to take action against other authors who do not like them.
Are you also confronted with violence in Germany, where you have been living for 18 years?
I get a lot of hate letters, I have police protection at public appearances and my house is guarded.
What exactly do your opponents accuse you of?
My criticism of Islam. He believes he is in possession of the absolute truth.
So are other religions.
But Islam refers to texts and people who are inviolable. In the West, for example, you can make fun of Jesus or Abraham without endangering yourself. But anyone who criticizes the Prophet or the Koran is provoking the wrath of the Muslims.
It is probably only a minority of Muslims who then resort to violence.
No, not only fundamentalists are becoming restless. Anyone who offends the prophet deserves death from the Muslims’ point of view – there are plenty of examples of this. This is the logic of Islam and the beginning of Islamic fascism.
That’s a tough charge.
The parallels between Islamism and fascism are manifold and old. It all began with the Prophet. It is not the modern Islamists who have introduced the jihad principle. The fight is already mystified in the Qur’ an as a service to Allah. The call to attack unbelievers is also in the Koran, including Islam’s claim to world domination and the justification for Islamic anti-Semitism.
The latter is to be understood as a reaction to the founding of the State of Israel.
This is wrong. Even before the founding of Israel and before the beginning of the Middle East conflict, the anti-Semitic, forged protocols of the Wise Men were translated and sold from Zion to Arabic as the alleged truth about the Jews. Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” was also available in Arabic in the 1930s. To this day, these two books are bestsellers in the Arab world, which is a spiritual catastrophe. I would not criticise the Koran or Islam if both were only relevant for the seventh century. But his principles are still ubiquitous today. They control life and societies in the Islamic world. There is also another parallel to fascism.
Which ones?
Islam has an inferiority complex because it cannot compete with the West. Modern Islamism emerged almost simultaneously with the fascist movement in Germany and Italy. The head of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hasan al-Banna, saw both Hitler and Mussolini as role models. During the Second World War there was even a cooperation, the Muslim Brotherhood did propaganda for the Nazis.
Can Islam be reformed without it perishing?
Islam cannot be reformed because it sees everything as the word of God. Islam wants to dominate society from above, determine the laws and dictate the structures of power. All of this is incompatible with a modern democracy. However, it would be important and possible to reform the Muslim way of thinking.
After all, until recently, Erdogan showed in Turkey that moderate Islam is possible.
I have never accepted the term “moderate Islam”. I think he’s misleading. When an Islamist comes to power, he has only one goal: he wants to enforce the Islamic social order, introduce Sharia law and later conquer the world. This is Islamism. Erdogan has cleverly tricked the West to empower himself. He has silenced the military and its critics by invoking the EU. But as soon as he had silenced his domestic opponents, he showed his true face. What we now have in Turkey I call “fascism light” – and not moderate Islamism.

Peter says
Islam cannot be a part of European /Western civilization given that its adherents have repeatedly sought to destroy it since the first invasions of predatory jihadists in the late 7th century.
And, they continue to do so with the complicity, support, and acquiescence of the West’s ignorant, delusional and treasonous elites that have opened the gates and helped build and settle the thousands of Islamist Trojan horses across the West.
Greyhound Fancier says
The elites are irreligious and ignorant of history. The view all religions as irrelevant at best, dangerous at worst. These silly foolish people see little or no difference between religions that promote peace versus mohammedanism.
John A. Marre says
This is designed to make the ordinary people willingly submit and accept their new masters. Get used to it, people! You are soon going to see what it means to live in subjugation to Muslims: rapes, humiliation, murders, destruction of property.

I have not seen the NY 9/11 Memorial Museum. The attack itself could have been an end to the insidious doctrine to remain on our land…but it wasn’t, as of course the deception and denial, the lack of doctrine facts allow all the “oppressive excuses” to want to protect the mosque doctrine from criticism and did not prevent the doctrine from expanding or staying. Turning the cheek of tolerance leads to be overcome with more deception, terror and submission. If the doctrine was hate speech, liberals protected it for fear of hurting feelings. A crazy idea when we should be protecting the lives of people who could be attacked again, the lives lost….who suffered beyond hurt feeling and there is no sense to honor jihad and it should be told not expanded with tolerance in my opinion …facts not fantasy.

The slave trade after raids in Spain, France and other mediterranean coastal areas by muslims throughout history is a great memory from Islam and its “association” with Europe.

The destruction of hundreds of churches in Spain and the subjugation and second class made of the indigenous peoples. The forced payment of the jizya and the deaths of those who refused to convert to Islam.

Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
The date is not entirely a coincidence. Mohammadin armies had the good sense (unlike Hitler) to retreat from unsuccessful campaigns before the weather turns so as not to get caught retreating/fighting in poor weather (as what happened with the first siege of Vienna).
From what I understand, the terrorist set the date of the 9/11 attack to coincide with this mammoth failure to take Vienna.

In my opinion (for whatever it is worth) the EU loves loves loves Islam. And I bet the EU pays pays pays certain groups and individuals to help the cause of Islam. So, from the perspective of those who work for the EU, this art exhibition is something to celebrate because the designers, artists, photographers, curators, delivery personnel, stock boys, material handlers, ticket makers, ticket takers and other museum personnel all made a buck from the glory and the gory of Islam. Who can possibly gripe at that? ???
Hugo Hackenbush says
The idea that “Islam” qua Islam achieved great things that benefited Europe is laughable. It is absurd on the face of it: Mostly illiterate desert dwellers somehow generated science etc. de novo over a few hundred years. I think NOT! Perhaps the purveyors of the exhibition should delve a little into the history of both Visigothic Spain and the intact eastern Roman empire (aka Byzantium) as well as the preislamic culture of Persia. How ’bout them “Arabic” numerals (ask the Hindu mathematicians about them). Thought experiment: The imagined wonderful world of the achievements of “Scientology Culture”. Suppose, overnight, everyone was forced to become Scientologists. Everything else remains intact. Could it really be claimed that any future scientific etc. achievements are due to Scientology?

Lu, there are many people in deep denial over the threat of Islam–surely you don’t believe they are all being paid by Mohammedans?
Sarah says
Lu – I agree with Graven, although I see your point. (and sorry in advance for a long post).
While I would agree that there is an extremely unhealthy and extraordinarily treasonous addiction to Gulf State cash amongst the Elites and Politicians of the West, who are the deciders in this insanity to bring Islam to the West, I simply do not believe that this is an accurate reason for the majority who support Islam’s invasion into the West.
There are so many people, general citizens, across the world (whether Western or not) who are effectively, breeding worker drones. Men and women who spend their lives working hard, toeing the line and believing whatever propaganda their governments and the mainstream media, spin at them.
People who will see their Politicians say ‘Islam is the religion of peace’ and will read empty, deceitful articles in the mainstream media that just lie through the skin of their teeth about Muslim migrants and their supposed ‘benefits’ to their communities.
These people go through life, doing what they’re told. Thinking what they’re told to think. They don’t self educate on issues like Islam. They’re too busy settling in every night, after an exhausting day at work, on the couch to watch the latest reality TV show. Weekends are spent running their kids to an endless stream of sports and entertainments. Their idea of serious conversation, is to obsessively scroll their Facebook news feed and read trashy magazines over Angelina and Brad’s latest reconciliation rumour- and then gossip ad nauseum about these things to their friends, neighbours, coworkers and family members.
This is the majority. These are the people who believe what they are told. These are the people who vote these Politicians back into power time and again without complaint – they worry more about the cost of living, about their credit card debt, whether their sports team makes it to the next round etc. About upgrading their car to a newer model so they can show off, on the road. About getting fillers in their lips for vanity. They worry about the state of the grass on their lawn in the backyard and which neighbour is bickering with another.
Geo-political issues are not even on their radar. Let alone realizing and coming to terms with the fact that there are over 1 billion people living on this planet today who believe wholeheartedly in a religion that says to enslave us all and slaughter those who refuse. They can’t even comprehend that.
They worry about what is in fashion right now, and whose shout it is at the pub. And why their best friend didn’t ‘Like’ their latest post on their Facebook or Twitter feed last night, when they went out to dinner and took a picture of the fancy meal they ate. They spend their free time dreaming about which place they want to travel to next and whether they can afford a manicure this week with the bills they’ve got coming in.
When those kinds of things are your day to day priorities – trying to wrap your head around the fact that you are being lied to and controlled by your government, doesn’t exist. Wrapping your head around an ideology with a huge number of supporters, that is coming for you and everyone you know – is inconceivable. They’ve only ever known comfortable, safe, peaceful lives – and they’re not being warned of the storm coming. Just the opposite – they’re being told everything is fine and no need to worry and just keep on purchasing crap, keep on drinking, keep on spoiling their kids, keep on focusing on the silly little things that society says are just oh-so vital to worry about.
Its THOSE people we need to convince. Not the Politicians and Elites. With the majority woken up and clued in to the truth (that is right in front of their stupidly ignorant noses) – that’s when the Politicians are forced to change. That’s when the MSM is forced to be truthful on this.
And the majority aren’t being paid by Saudi oil money. The Arabs aren’t sending sneaky cheques to hundreds of millions of Westerners every month, to keep them complicit. They are being seduced by total bullshit that the people in charge of our nation’s make sure is front and centre 24/7 as a shield to protect their treasonous backside’s – and to distract the majority.
Its pure, wilful blind ignorance. Laziness from people who know nothing different, who have never known anything different. The West IS decadent nowadays. We’ve had it so good, for so long – that we can’t even see our destruction coming and probably won’t see it, til its knocking on the back door.
Lu says

Well, Sarah, I agree with such a statement … What I insinuated about the mercenarism of all who are subverting the West is probably an overstatement: they are merely the useful idiots enabling all this.
I still maintain that the elites simply cannot be so dumb. Unless the indoctrination by political correctness overcame their basic instincts so mightily that they completely submitted to it – which is not making the magnitude of their treason smaller.

History is always repeats itself, last time leftiests worship communism, and eventually communism had brought the greatest disaster in human history that cost tens of millions lives. This time leftiests worship Islam, for a reasonable human being, you should ask them how many lives do leftiests wish to sacrifice.

This doesn’t surprise me coming from Brussels. This summer there was a park in Brussels, very close to the EU headquarters, that was full of mostly African migrants passing through the city. There were most likely illegal migrants who snuck into the EU and were not claiming asylum in Belgium. The police cleaned them out after a few months, and they’ve moved on to somewhere else.

As the (very good) article points out – Islam’s contribution to European history is confined to invasion and conquest.
Its like Naziism and Hitler. Sure, both are absolutely and undeniably a part of Europe’s history.
But both are a really shit part, to be succinct, that are only remembered so far as to serve as reminders, so that Europeans NEVER REPEAT THE MISTAKES AND SINS OF THE PAST.
Its about time these bloody Europeans applied the same methodology here, to Islam.
It will never bring you (or any of us) anything good. Just bloodshed, misery, brutality and hate.

John A. Marre says
By saying that Islam is part of their history, they are implying that Islam is their future. The problem is not the past, since that cannot be changed. It’s the future of Europe under Islam. In that future, the millenniums of history and culture will be destroyed. Non-Muslim women will be able to count on being raped several times during their life. Magnificent cathedrals will become latrines for Muslims.
By abandoning all levels of the practice of Christianity, by transforming Christianity into a Progressivism that mentions Christ every once in a while, by feeling ashamed of Christianity, Europeans have rolled out the red carpet for Islam, which leaped for joy at the invitation, and is setting itself up to succeed in Europe.

The exhibition is a whitewash of the 548 jihad battles and tens of thousands of Islamic raids on Europe , its ships, its islands and its coasts.

I do not believe in teaching the stupid either. If you think deeply and logically about the current Europe’s predicament, there is only one solution, and it is not the peaceful one.
I hate so say that … being born in a land between Berlin and Vienna, I am deeply concerned about my ancestral land. The situation will escalate, maybe slowly, maybe with flares of unrests and forced quiet. But eventually the violence will prevail and Europe will be engulfed in another … large-scale conflict, because to call it a war would not be fitting to what we know wars have been so far: armies,battles, victories, retreats and liberation.
How sad to live in these times and not to see a scintilla of hope for a reversal of the downward spiral.

As long as there are patriots like ourselves willing to stand up for our civilized societies, all is not lost.

In my mind there is only one avenue. I know I risk being a bore but I will post my frequently posted comment again:
The answer is to attack their enablers. You must first drive the political Left from power (and discredit it).
This is much more painless that wrestling directly with Mohammadins. If you do battle (obviously, I am speaking figuratively) with the Left, no one will call you a “leftophobe.” Being a Conservative is a time honoured and accepted political position. You may harbour misgivings about Mohammadism, even downright hate it, but if you never show it publicly and expend all your energies doing battle with the Left (which aids and abets Mohammadism) then you are much less likely to be a target (smear campaigns, etc).
Once the Left is driven from power you will be much freer and safer to speak your mind on the subject.
For Europeans, I would recommend investigating the Identitarian movement. They are solely responsible for stopping the African invasion of Italy. (You may have noticed that migrants are now coming from Turkey instead of North Africa.)

Do these sh*t for brains idiots KNOW what their history is with Islam? Europe has been fighting off Islamic slavery for fourteen centuries. Now they are embracing it.
A European says
Islam likes to take credit for progress in science and medicine, but if you take a closer look at their claims, you’ll see that those scientific achievements were made in spite of Islam, not because of Islam. Islam was never the cause of any scientific progress.
Avicenna (Ibn Sina), for example, was a great Persian scholar and doctor from the 10th century. He wrote a book called Canon of Medicine which was used as a textbook in the universities of Montpellier and Louvain as late as 1650, and he is considered to be the father of modern medicine and pharmacology. But his achievements were in no way inspired by Islam. On the contrary! He was often at odds with islamic orthodoxy, because he used to advocate evidence-based medicine and experimental medicine, which contradicts the islamic dogma.

Propaganda working to ease the illegal decision by Merkel to flood Europe with the world’s most repulsive mainstream ideology.

“EU-funded exhibit “Islam, It’s Also Our History!” opens after delay caused by jihad massacres“.
I had to laugh at that. It’s demented.

Nazism is also part of European history, therefore, ergo…let’s bring back the swastika and all of their technological advancements, such as the gas chambers.
Oh,…don’t bother w/ Hitlerian Nazism (too much “whiteness”)…Europe seems to have more fond memories of their older IslamoNazi invaders…so much so they want to bring it back with this exhibit. Thanks to the “Gates of Vienna”… that wonderful “croissant” wouldn’t have existed w/o that wonderful Islamic culture.
Stupid IS as Stupid Does.
