    You mightn't agree with everything he believes in but on issues of islamo fascism and the tyranny of political correctness he is spot on. In Australia he would be labelled a racist.

    • Sol Salbe says:

      Good description: he's a vile racist.

    • Ed Adamek says:

      Really Sol. Please provide your definition of a racist.

    • Sol Salbe says:

      there's an apocryphal story about someone walking to a dealership and asking of the price of the top-range model. The answer? If you need to ask how much it is, you can't afford it. There's a lesson in that story.

    • Ronald Mann says:

      That's wat they call him there too

    • Ed Adamek says:

      So you are defining a racist with an analogy which is patronising at best. I understand what a racist is and you obviously dont. From all I have read about him and his proposed policies, I do not believe that he is a racist as defined by most dictionaries. These days, with the absolute tyranny of political correctness and the mindless adherents of that culture any person articulating an alternate analysis of a social issue can be labelled a racist. What is wrong for a Dutch politician insisting that all non Dutch speaking residents must learn to speak Dutch or identifying and being highly critical and suspicious of Islamo fascism and its advocates. Islamo fascism is a global problem and the sooner that this is acknowledged the sooner the West will come up with appropriate strategies to tackle it.

      Ed Adamek your right he is not a racists, he does not hate people, he hates the ideology of which islam stands for, a person who adheres to the teachings of Islam is a fundamental danger to any society, plus one should keep in mind that are battle here is not against flesh and blood but against principles that are contrary to the principles set forth in the Bible. Islam is the religion of antichrist, and he will be a Muslim leader and their Messiah, this is why the religion is totalitarian in character, it is SATANS (ANTICHRISTS) regime to be made manifest in the end times as prophecied.

    • Ed Adamek says:

      Ed with all due respect, Islamo fascism has absolutely nothing to do with religion. It is politics at its worst and is pursued in the name of one of the 3 Abrahamic religions and it is all about achieving power and control by fear. The vast majority of Muslims are anti violent – regardless of whether they are secular or observant. Geert Wilders is a pragmatic politician who fears that the European character and liberal democratic values of the Netherlands being eroded by a value system totally alien to theirs. The growing Muslim population, the majority of whom cannot speak or communicate in the national language have therefore become marginalized. This allows this segment of the Dutch population to be easily manipulated and seduced by charismatic Mullahs who preach hatred and Jihad against Western civilization. Because this problem is now intergenerational it is now the younger generation that is being attracted to this ideology and they have become the foot soldiers of the movement. It has nothing to do with satan, antichrists or any other metaphysical identities!

Following the Boston Marathon bombing, one crucial point will likely remain overlooked. The most loathsome aspect of this or any other terror bombing attack on civilians will always lie in the inexpressibility of physical pain. While all decent people will abhor the idea of bombs expressly directed at the innocent, whether here or in other countries, none will ever be able to process the very deepest horrors of what has been inflicted.

It’s only natural to see increasing evidence of Jerusalem’s glorious Jewish past being unearthed, quite literally, under modern Israeli sovereignty. The new archaeological finds are also very timely – as the Arab onslaught attempting to detach Jerusalem from its Jewish roots gains steam, the facts on the ground, or “under” the ground, show quite otherwise.

The Talmud (Berachot 26b) says, “tefillot avot tiknum” – “prayer was established by the avot.” The Talmud then uses the following verse (Bereshit 19:27) to prove how Avraham established prayer: “Vayaskem Avraham baboker el hamakom asher amad sham et pnei Hashem” – “And Avraham got up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before God.”

Nearly 13 years ago, then-Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak journeyed to Camp David to end the conflict with the Palestinians. With the approval of President Clinton, he offered Yasir Arafat an independent Palestinian state in almost all of the West Bank, Gaza and in part of Jerusalem. Arafat said no.

The news that the Internal Revenue Service unfairly targeted conservative groups has brought renewed spotlight on a 2010 lawsuit filed by the pro-Israel group Z Street, which alleges it was also singled out by the IRS when applying for tax-exempt status.

In an editorial last week (“Circling the Wagons”) we noted the efforts by the administration and its supporters to dismiss allegations that the government’s spin on the Benghazi attack was designed to shield the president and that the IRS was improperly used to stifle opposition to Mr. Obama’s reelection.

As the controversies besetting the Obama administration continue to grow in number and intensity, the prospect that President Obama would seriously consider military action against Iran, should that country continue its drive to become a nuclear power, becomes more and more remote. So we welcome the current enhancement of sanctions against Iran on the federal and New York State levels.

Why does Europe so fear labeling Hizbollah a terrorist organization?

Over the past several years, immigrant gangs have proliferated geographically across all of Denmark.

A majority of people in France, according to a new poll, believe that Islam is too influential in French society, and almost half view Muslims as a threat to their national identity. The survey reveals a significant degradation of the image of Islam in France. The findings also show that French voters are growing increasingly uneasy about mass immigration from Muslim countries, which has been encouraged by a generation of political and cultural elites in France dedicated to creating a multicultural society.

An Islamist radical convicted of stabbing two German police officers during a protest against “offensive” cartoons has been sentenced to six years in prison. Murat K, a 26-year-old German-born Salafist of Turkish heritage from the western state of Hessen, openly admitted that he had attacked and wounded the two police officers with a kitchen knife during the cartoon riots in May. He showed no remorse, however, during his trial at the district court in the city of Bonn; he said he had been morally obligated to follow Islamic Sharia law.

In recent years, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe has been the focus of an intense lobbying campaign by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, a bloc of 57 Muslim countries that are aggressively pressuring Western countries to make it an international crime to criticize Islam. In August 1990, the Muslim member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation officially adopted the Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam, an alternative document to the 1948 United Nations’ document, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The Cairo Declaration states that people have “freedom and right to a dignified life in accordance with Islamic Sharia law.”

Muslim protests over an American-made anti-Islamic YouTube film, Innocence of Muslims, have spread to more European cities. Muslim rioters had initially clashed with police in Belgium, Britain and France, but since then, protests have spread to Austria, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Norway, Serbia and Switzerland.

Protests over an American-made anti-Islamic YouTube film, Innocence of Muslims, have spread to Europe. Muslim rioters have clashed with police in several European cities, and more demonstrations are being planned. The protests are part of widespread anger across the Muslim world about the amateur film, which ridicules Islam and depicts the Muslim Prophet Mohammed as a fraud, a madman and a sexual deviant. Muslims in many European countries are calling on governments to outlaw the controversial film.

Areas of France have become lawless and off-limits due to non-Muslims due to Muslim violence. The government has finally embarked on “North-American style” campaign to bring the areas under control, designating an initial 15 areas “Priority Security Zones.”
