I mean, it’s something, but, what is it really?
European Parliament votes to confront Muslim Brotherhood, ‘Islamist entryism’ in overwhelming vote
Following the sanctioning of foreign Muslim Brotherhood groups by the Trump administration, the European Parliament recently took its own action against the transnational radical Islamist group.
As Europe begins to respond to the threat of radical Islam across the continent, an overwhelming majority of the European Parliament voted for a resolution that condemned the Muslim Brotherhood and its actions.
European Parliament member Céline Imart of France, who sponsored the resolution, called the vote “a historic victory because it is a European first. For the first time, Europe has voted on a text that tackles Islamist entryism and the Muslim Brotherhood.”
Imart posted on X that she had “broken a taboo that Europe has been dragging around like a chain: this victory signifies a major doctrinal shift in the institutions… We were able to transcend partisan divides on a major issue for our societies and our youth.”
It’s a start, but, will they actually ban the MB? They should
A press release on the resolution issued by the European Parliament’s news website stated that Islamist entryism targets “democratic institutions, the rule of law, equality between women and men and fundamental freedoms.” It stressed that Muslim citizens must be protected from discrimination as “a democratic obligation,” while “warning against treating organized Islamist networks as representative interlocutors.”
The release also stated, “While Europe must remain free, open and faithful to its principles, it can ‘no longer fund, consult or legitimize networks that use its language, procedures and funding to weaken its values from within,’” but “MEPs stress that anti-discrimination policies must not be used to shield Islam from criticism or legitimize organized Islamist networks.”
So Muslims bad but must also be protected. Do they understand that this is the same weeny language that has allowed the hardcore Muslims to infiltrate Western nations?
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that French President Emmanuel Macron called him on October 7th, which would be before Israel retaliated against Hamas — it took a day to mobilize the IDF and come up with a plan — and urged him to declare a ceasefire. It could be that Mr Netanyahu meant Monsieur Macron a day or two after October 7th, when Israel was actually moving against Hamas.
What did M Macron expect? Did he think that Israel would simply accept 1,199 unarmed civilians being slaughtered, and 251 more carried off as hostages? That would have left Hamas with a victory, and an Israeli surrender to a terrorist attack.
Despite their brave words, the Europeans have no stomach for fighting. We saw that in 1938, when Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain conceded the Sudetenland to the Third Reich rather than fight. Adolf Hitler’s generals were fretting that the Wehrmacht still needed time, and that if France attacked over the Führer’s moves, the French could walk all over Germany, but Herr Hitler guessed right: the British and French together would do anything to avoid war. After all, this was a move against Czechoslovakia, not France and the UK, right?
Mr Chamberlain and Premier Édouard Daladier of France saw that Herr Hitler was not to be appeased, and offered an unconditional guarantee of security for Poland should the Third Reich attack. The Wehrmacht rolled in on September 1, 1939, and, after a couple days of dithering, France and the United Kingdom declared war on Germany on September 3rd.
Not that they could do anything about it, of course. Neither country actually attacked Germany, as France was prepared for a wholly defensive war, having learned the lessons of World War I. When Germany turned around, several months later, and finally attacked, France learned that the lessons of World War I did not apply to the blitzkrieg.
Our European allies are braver now, sending money and war materiel to Ukraine, but not a single soldier to actually fight, and that’s an actual war against a determined, if somewhat inept, potential conqueror. So what makes anyone think that they’ll actually do anything against the Islamist hordes which they allowed into their countries?
The AfD candidate for Chancellor of Germany has promised mass deportations her first 100 days in office, and naturally every leftwing party in Deutschland is working to defeat her. If AfD wins a plurality but not a majority, look for the other parties to combine to keep her out of office, just like they have done to Geert Wilders in the Netherlands.
With the exceptions of Poland and Hungary, the European nations are having problems with Muslim immigrants, people who brought their own failed cultures along with them. Conservatives warned that this would happen, but the liberal Europeans didn’t want to listen. To confront the truth would be to realize that their entire mindset is wrong, wrong, wrong!
Marine Le Pen might win the French presidential election, and Alice Weidel of AfD could become the next Chancellor of Germany. She has promised that in her first 100 days she will have begun mass deportations of Muslim immigrants. There’s no guarantee that they’ll win, and if they win pluralities rather than majorities, the other parties will combine in coalitions to keep the sensible people out of office, as has been done to Geert Wilders in the Netherlands.
Europe is a beautiful continent, with amazing history and culture, and uncontrolled immigration is threatening to slowly ruin all of that. The left have inculcated the cockamamie notion that ‘all cultures are equal and valid,’ and that mental infection has poisoned their minds.
