Islam IS the Problem

From a recent speech in the Parliament of the Netherlands:

Madam Speaker, the Koran on the table before you is a handbook for terrorists. Blood drips from its pages. It calls for perpetual war against non-believers. That Koran before you is the hunting permit for millions of Muslims. A license to kill. That book is the Constitution of the Islamic State. What ISIS does is what Allah commands.

This bloodthirsty ideology was able to nestle in the Netherlands because our elites looked away. Neighborhoods such as Schilderswijk, Transvaal, Crooswijk, Slotervaart, Kanaleneiland, Huizen, you name it. There, the caliphate is under construction; there, the Islamic State is in preparation.

During the past ten years and two days , the ostrich Cabinets did nothing. It has nothing to do with Islam, they lied to the people. Imagine them having to tell the truth.

But the people have noticed. Two thirds of all Dutch say that the Islamic culture does not belong in the Netherlands. Including the majority of the electorate of the Labour Party, the majority of the voters of the VVD, the majority of the voters of the CDA, and all the voters of the PVV.

The voters demand that, after ten years and two days of slumber, measures are finally taken. The voters demand that something effective happen. No semi-soft palliatives. Allow me to make a few suggestions to the away-with-us mafia. Here are a few things which should happen starting today:

Recognize that Islam is the problem...

A few people in Europe and America are finally starting to wake up and see what's really happening. The cultural alarm clock is going off, but our so-called leaders have been hitting the snooze button for years. "Watch reality television! Listen to CBS News! Browse Facebook! Pay no attention to the man in the turban."

The unpalatable truth is that Western civilization is once again at war with Islam. That's so because Islam has declared war on the West -- against anyone who isn't a Muslim, in fact. Against infidels. You and me and pretty well everyone else who constitute Western civilization are infidels. Hence we are at war. We've been here many times over the past 1,400 years, so it shouldn't come as a surprise. Islam was created with the sole purpose of wiping out all other religions. Infidels may be converted, enslaved, or killed. You'll note that "tolerant coexistence" didn't make the list.

When someone declares war on you, saying "no" and tucking your head under the pillow isn't an option. So do we nuke the entire Middle East? No, that would be pointless. But you can do what Japan did: you can ban or severely restrict the practice of Islam inside your borders. If that violates your sense of moral superiority, if it makes you thrust a pasty-white trembling finger at the First Amendment, (which the Left are more than willing to ignore when it suits their purposes to do so), then tough nuts. Reality is a harsh mistress. You'd best learn to heed her lest she beat you to a bloody pulp.
