This paints a large target on their backs, and may ensure, since they are clueless and cowardly dhimmis, that they will fall into line with Erdogan’s plans.
“Erdoğan calls some EU politicians ‘enemies of Islam,’” SCF, March 25, 2019:
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has accused EU politicians Kati Piri, Federica Mogherini and Johannes Hahn of being enemies of Islam while criticizing a recent report adopted by the EU in favor of the official freeze of the membership process with Turkey, according to Turkish media reports on Friday.
During a recent interview on the pro-government Ülke TV, Erdoğan was asked about remarks by Piri, the Turkey rapporteur for the European Parliament (EP), against the conversion of the Hagia Sophia in İstanbul into a mosque.
In response, he said: “There is no need to talk about that woman in the EP, anyway. Let’s not spread her propaganda. … They advise [the EU] to stop accession talks with us. I wish they had done such a thing and stopped the accession talks. Our foreign minister made the necessary explanations at the meeting there to [EU foreign affairs chief] Mogherini, then to that woman [Piri] and to the Austrian [Hahn], to all of them. But they are not honest, they are not sincere. We should not forget this: We are Muslims and they are enemies of Islam.”…
Michael Copeland says
Erdogan knows his Koran. He cannot deny any verse: that brings the death penalty.
3:32 Allah does not love the unbelievers
2:98 Allah is an enemy to the disbelievers
Dutiful slaves of Allah, muslims, must share Allah’s enmities.
“Allah (SWT) tells you to … hate those whom He tells you to hate …
Therefore you must love the Muslims … and hate the kuffaar … .”
http://www.MuslimsAgainstVoting.wordpress.com
FYI says
Erdogan may know his koran and his god,allah the “BEST of deceivers” but he certainly knows nothing about God.
“The WHOLE LAW of Moses and the teachings of the prophets depend on these 2 chief commandments{of LOVE}”
Matthew 22 v 40
#1 LOVE of GOD{Deut 6:4-9}
#2 LOVE of fellow human beings{“Love thy neighbor”}Lev 19:18
Love of God ,in the Gospel,is associated with obedience to the Exodus 20{1-17} Laws
but since the teachings of the koran are at odds with these laws,True Love of God is not
promoted by the koran nor love for the non-muslim.
So allah doesn’t subscribe to the two chief commandments of God!
Both Judaism and Christianity have these 2 Chief laws of Love but islam doesn’t:instead of love you have al Walaa Wal Baraa,a doctrine of HATE ..and the classification of non-muslims as kuffar is also at odds with the 2nd chief commandment.
In fact,in OPPOSITION to the 2nd chief commandment allah ,tells muslims NOT to “love thy neighbor”when he says…
“Oh ye who believe!Take NOT the Jews and Christians for friends”
koran 5 v 51
Hagia Sophia was of course,stolen by the muslims…of course Erdogan would think it a great triumph to dedicate it to their god,allah “the BEST of deceivers” k3:54,a god who must never be confused with the Biblical version.

Most religions are not a problem. Islam sure is, though.
CRUSADER says
Religions are supposed to help humanity sort out life.
It isn’t God’s fault, but the fault of human free will which gets in the way of connecting to the Divine Source.
Savvy Kafir says
I’m with you, Laura. I’d love to see all religions go the way of the dinosaurs. Religious superstition does far more harm than good. (Although I won’t waste my time trying to debate that here.)
That being said, Islam is definitely in a class all by itself. It’s uniquely barbaric and savage, and poses a FAR greater danger to civilized societies than any other religion.
I’m willing to make common cause with Christians and religious Jews, in the resistance to Islam. But I would never align myself with Muslims for any cause.
J D.S says
Laura…..your statement has no back-up…..but there is plenty. of back-up for there being A God.
Without Christianity, a religion, the world would be in chaos. Christianity is the cement that has held the world together since it’s beginning with the birth. death and resurrection of Jesus the Christ. Without Christianity, a religion, the world would be in a barbaric situation such as islam has and is portraying.

All too typical tactic of the left. “If you don’t do what I demand, you hate me.”
I noticed this first during the Act-Up days in the 1980s. If full-bore funding from Congress and every state legislature was ponied-up pronto for AIDS research and care for all sexed-up homosexuals, then we and our representative legislators HATED homosexuals and wanted to see the all dead.
This has been used by countless leftist groups ever since.
Islam is through-and-through leftist. So it’s no surprise to see them pull these stunts.
CRUSADER says
Terrible role models!
Leftists are like rotten spoiled children who whine and bitch when they don’t get what they demand.
Act-Up was atrocious as a 100th Birthday Event at Stanford University.
With snipers on the terra-cotta rooftops and security mingling in the crowd
listening to the Governor of CA, Pete Wilson, praise the college for its achievements,
Act-Up infiltrated the crowd and began blowing whistles and pelting the governor with eggs!
He finished the speech, bravely, with egg on his face, but the Party got spoiled by rotten people
with an agenda which only cared for itself.
Islam Green does AXIS with the Leftist Red
Odd, however, Islam acts leftist but has rightist aspects of non-inclusion, heavy traditional conservative
— more reactionary.

And yet, it’s like ethno nationalism – which is GENUINE Far Right – which wants Islam to dominate non Muslims. For me – it is both.
sidney penny says
Would Erdogan agree to the conversion of mosques to temples that were once temples in India.
Below is one of them.
“Even after Aurangazeb demolished the original temple and constructed a mosque over it, the remains of the erstwhile temple can be seen in the foundation, the columns and at the rear part of the mosque.”
It is one of the temples that the Hindus in India want returned to as a temple but the Muslims there do not agree.

sidney, Muslims consider Islam to be the only true religion. They say that we are all born Muslims and only the misguided moved away from Islam. They consider everybody else to be inferior and impure. They want to convert the whole world to Islam and those that refuse should be either killed, made slaves or pay outrageously high taxes. So what would be the chances that they would agree to convert a mosque back to a temple?

Turks voted for him, as the American voters in Minnesota and now Pennsylvania voted for local Muslims. Remember, Turkey repudiated western ideas by force of arms in, oh say, 1453 at the latest. I wish I could share your optimism. Oh and he’s supposed to be Caliph by 2023 and levy jizya on the world.
Erdogan embodies the will of his Muslim electorate……oh and, gradual Islam”ism” I guess involves first degrading elections to public charades until Koran 3:155, 33:37 and 2:191 can be implemented. Or as the the pre-Caliph said: “Democracy is a streetcar, you ride it to where you’re going and then get off.”

Erdogan calls the EU a “Christian club” and he knows it is one Turkey will NEVER be allowed to join. The big players, France and Germany, have both repeatedly said that it will never happen. When asked in an interview if Turkey would ever be allowed to join, Angela Merkel said: “No. And Erdogan knows this”.
And that was before anti-Islam countries like Hungary and Poland joined, and countries like Austria and Italy swung to an anti-Islam right. Since it would require unanimous agreement, Erdogan knows it will never happen. Some years ago, when it was applying for membership, it did have one supporter. Pro-Islam Britain.

Erdogan is a driving force behind the Islamic push to restore the Caliphate and has fooled the leaders of the west into thinking he supports a secular Turkey, when in actual fact he has always been an Islamist.

End PC says
For most of Islam’s 1400 year history Islam’s warriors have militarily tried to conquer, plunder & subjugate all of Europe for Allah, which effort was only thwarted by bloody battles. Yet Europeans are to be derided if they are anti-Islam?
Rod says
I wonder, End PC, whether you know who it was who “militarily tried to conquer, plunder & subjugate” all of the Americas, most of Africa, New Zealand, Australia, many of the Pacific Islands, New Guinea, India, Pakistan, much of SE Asia, and a good part of the Middle East?
Yes, End PC, it was the Christians.
Many of these territories were taken FROM people who were Muslims. And the invaders didn’t “try” to conquer and plunder. They succeeded. And you don’t have to go back 1400 years either.
So doesn’t that tell you something? Open your eyes.

What a load. Now “Rod” would have us believe that the indigenous peoples of the Americas, New Zealand, Australia, and the Pacific Islands were all Mohammedans. Try again…

AleX says
As of comments posted at 11:38 pm, according to Rod, the JW comments’ section is formed by ‘mindless admirers in this swampland of hatred’, a ‘blind community of haters’.
Moreover, Mr. Spencer here is considered making ‘untiring efforts to inspire hatred’.
I think it’s quite bold and irresponsible of Rod to blame an entire community of decent readers, contributors and authors. While accusing others with mindlessly largesse, Rod should first rid himself of prejudice before seriously consider learning more about islam, own virtue and human history.
Gwen says
Rod might like to explain the current Indonesian occupation, colonisation, dispossession, displacement, exploitation & destruction of the Christian peoples & their resources in West Papua and West Timor. We rarely hear about these people in the MSM.
Sometimes we hear about how their wildlife is close to extinction such as the tree kangaroo and orangutans due to the destruction of the forests and land through mining & palm oil plantations. We don‘t hear about the human toll.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Nusa_Tenggara
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Papua_(province)
Why is Islamic rule being forced on Melanesians by Indonesians TODAY under the boot of the Indonesian military?
And Rod, while you’re explaining that can you explain why there was the forced expulsion and ethnic cleansing of people with Dutch ancestry who had lived in Indonesia for hundreds of years? Huge numbers of people in the 1950s and 1960s.
Paul J says
Most of the deaths in the “new world” were actually from diseases the Europeans brought with them, in other words unintentional. Yes there were conflicts and killings (a lot in retaliation to native killing of settlers) but a fraction of the absolute slaughter Islam inflicted on lands it conquered. 100’s of millions alone in India (according to Islamic historians). Christians didn’t explore and expand to slaughter and enslave, Islam did/has and will.
Rod says
What a tragedy. Taking someone’s country from them, massacring them where necessary, ruthlessly exploiting their resources, destroying their culture, driving the survivors at gunpoint into reservations, watching them slowly die out, and then having to realise that you have “unintentionally” caused “most” of their deaths.
But let’s not be harsh. In some places the kindly Christians didn’t kill many of the locals. They just took over the country and helped themselves to whatever was useful. Until they were shamed into leaving, maybe 100 years later.
But, as Cogito points out, Genghis Khan was worse, so, ……..well apparently that means Muslims should be hated. It’s a bit murky, isn’t it?
What do I think, Cogito? I think I should wait for a rational response. Might take a while.
gravenimage says
The West–including the US–have been very self critical about their treatment of Native Americans and their role in slavery.
Where has Islam ever done such things? Turkey denies the Armenian Genocide, and threatens those who dare mention it:
“Turkey threatens ‘serious consequences’ after US vote on Armenian genocide”
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2010/mar/05/turkey-us-vote-armenian-genocide
Rod says
If only they were “self critical” like the West, they could ignore their own history and criticise others like we do. Is that the message? Or is Mathew 7:5 more relevant?

The idea that our criticizing our history is “ignoring it” of course makes no sense. No one can change history, but you can decide how to regard it, what lessons to take from it, and vow to do better in the future where that history has been found wanting.
And the implication that if we have not had a perfect history going back in perpetuity that we are then prevented from saying anything critical of the savagery of others today is not any kind of justice–it just ensures that there will be more unchecked brutality going forward.
That is what “Rod” is trying to do with his citing Matthew 7:5.
Were this true, Americans and Britons would have done nothing to end the Holocaust because there were some social clubs at the time in their own nations that did not accept Jewish members…
thebigW says
This “Rod” guy is cherry picking and doing drive-bys, notice how he ignores the responses that really get to the heart of his fallacies.
Rod says
Genghis Khan wasn’t worse, cogito? Well, yes, you really are challenging my comprehension.
Rod says
“Fallacies”, bigW? Is the story of white European colonialism a fallacy? Or the dispossession of the Native American people? Don’t you owe an explanation to the members of your little Hate Club? Some of them might be interested in a novel version of history, just as I am. Or is “fallacy” just a response to something you don’t like to confront? And do all of your friends just agree, as they seem to agree with whatever absurdities are dished up to them?

Yeah, Rod, you got it man. It would have been great if Ghengis Khan had conquered most of the world or if the Aztecs had spread their empire across both North and South America.

Erdogan is making a big mistake by attacking European politicians. They may or may not back down but forcing them to have bodyguards will lead to a major blowback. He will get Turkey thrown out of NATO. If he continues European countries will gang up on him and go to war. Russia may sell him weapons but will not defend him.
Gwen says
He is relying on the millions of self segregated Turks in The Netherlands and Germany. Germany has approx. 4 to 5 million and a subgroup is able to be influenced and organised directly through the Diyanet İşleri Türk İslam Birliği (DİTİB): German branch of the Turkish Presidency for Religious Affairs, Cologne. As of 2016, the Turkish government funds and provides staff for 900 of Germany’s roughly 3000 mosques run by DİTİB.
Unbelievable, right?
A_M_Swallow says
If they physically intimidate Turks in Germany Erdogan’s thugs will find they are arrested by the German police. If the Turkish workers revolt they will find that the German army’s machine guns are nearer than the Turkish army’s weapons.

According to Turkey’s top cleric, Professor Ali Erbaş, head of the Turkish government’s powerful Directorate of Religious Affairs (Diyanet), “children who do not read the Quran are with Satan and Satanic people”.
Per a Gatestone article this cleric praises Erdogan’s budget proposal for 2019 wherein the general directorate is granted a 34% increase to 10.5 billion Turkish liras ($1.97 billion), more than four times larger than the annual budget of 2.5 billion liras for the Science and Technology Ministry.
elee says
Oh and BTW they (the Diyanet) has a huge complex of buildings in Maryland. They don’t tell kafirs what it is they do there but I’d speculate it isn’t the promotion of rational deliberative democracy. Ask Rudy Giuliani what his clients are up to.

Erdogan’s rage-filled outbursts will only alert European politicians that Islam is not the RELIGION OF PEACE.
Erdogan is warming up to declaring a JIHAD that will quickly become a GENOCIDE against Christians and Europeans. I wonder how many Turks will actually want to follow this PIED PIPER OF JIHAD-TERROR ???
