So Much For Freedom In Belgium

I wonder if those on the Left will denounce this

Defying a legal ban, an estimated 200 people took part in a short-lived demonstration in Brussels Tuesday against "the islamization of Europe." The gathering was disrupted when Belgian police intervened and detained scores of people, including several European lawmakers.

Among the more than 150 people arrested in the area of the city where many European Union institutions are located were several far-right politicians and members of the European Parliament (MEPs), local media reported. They were released hours later.

Organizers based in several European countries who used the Internet primarily to promote the event had earlier predicted that 20,000 people might take part. They blamed the poor turnout on the legal hurdles and warnings that violence could erupt.

"Of course we’re disappointed by the turnout but it’s all the fault of the authorities," Radio Netherlands quoted Anders Gravers, a Danish co-organizer, as saying.

"The mayor had no right to stop us. And there were even terror threats against the march, so it’s no wonder people stayed home," Gravers said. "But we’re here to remind everyone that six years ago today, on 9/11, Islam declared war on the Western world."

Liberals here call the Bush admin facist for keeping serious wacko’s, intent only on disruption, away from speeches. They claim, in the middle of large demonstrations, that Bush is taking away the right of free speech. Of course, what they really mean is the right to gather peaceably, but, hey, they either have never read the Constitution, or are avoiding that part, as they are not peaceable.

This is what happens because of violent Islam: governments are too scared to allow actions such as the march, and people are too scared to participate. Religion of peace my ass!
