Politics / Trend Of Islamic Take Over by jellyfish86: 8:33am On Nov 12, 2015
You may have seen this one before, but it's worth reading again and sending it on to others. Adapted from Dr. Peter Hammond's book: Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat.
Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is a complete, total, 100% system of life.
Islam has religious, legal, political, economic, social, and military components. The religious component is a beard for all of the other components.

Islamization begins when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their religious privileges.

When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim demands for their religious privileges, some of the other components tend to creep in as well.
Here's how it works:
As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part be regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens. This is the case in:
United States -- Muslim 0.6%
Australia -- Muslim 1.5%
Canada -- Muslim 1.9%
China -- Muslim 1.8%
Italy -- Muslim 1.5%
Norway -- Muslim 1.8%
At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs. This is happening in:
Denmark -- Muslim 2%
Germany -- Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom -- Muslim 2.7%
Spain -- Muslim 4%
Thailand -- Muslim 4.6%

From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves -- along with threats for failure to comply. This is occurring in:

France -- Muslim 8%
Philippines -- Muslim 5%
Sweden -- Muslim 5%
Switzerland -- Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands -- Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad & Tobago -- Muslim 5.8%

At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world.

When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions.
In Paris, we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam, with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections in:

Guyana -- Muslim 10%
India -- Muslim 13.4%
Israel -- Muslim 16%
Kenya -- Muslim 10%
Russia -- Muslim 15%

After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:

Ethiopia -- Muslim 32.8%

At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:
Bosnia -- Muslim 40%
Chad -- Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon -- Muslim 59.7%

From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels, such as in:

Albania -- Muslim 70%
Malaysia -- Muslim 60.4%
Qatar -- Muslim 77.5%
Sudan -- Muslim 70%

After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and is on-going in:

Bangladesh -- Muslim 83%
Egypt -- Muslim 90%
Gaza -- Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia -- Muslim 86.1%
Iran -- Muslim 98%
Iraq -- Muslim 97%
Jordan -- Muslim 92%
Morocco -- Muslim 98.7%

While it is common to hear an argument postulated by adherents of a recent pro-Biafra agitation resurgence among young listeners of a pirate radio station operating out of the United Kingdom, Radio Biafra, that “Biafra” was the initial name of the territory to which the South of Nigeria belonged, our checks have failed to substantiate this claim.

The idea has been pushed by the Radio station run by a rather radical individual, Nwannekaenyi Kenny Okwu-Kanu, who goes by the alias, Nnamdi Kanu.


Ojukwu

Apparently the name “Biafra” or “Biafara” was picked again because the former Premiere of Nigeria’s then Eastern region, Odumegwu Ojukwu had chosen the “Biafra” name for the territory he wished to preside over; however there is no evidence that Ojukwu selected that name because he believed it was the name of his ancestral home. Rather it was the name of much of Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea and São Tomé and Príncipe and perhaps a nice name that tickled Ojukwu’s fancy. Or perhaps Ojukwu was suggesting an ancestral origin outside Nigeria in the Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon region.

The maps can be seen on the Princeton University website and enlarged to examine. We have brought out the relative parts below.



In the image above, River Camarones can be noticed at the left border of “Biafra.” This river, now called Wouri river is in the middle of today’s Cameroon.

The Region Is Benin And Not Biafra

Calabar, Nigeria’s Eastern border is seen well within territory called Benin; Benin, a large demarcated kingdom that extends deep into today’s Cameroon, before the region known as Biafra starts.

Based on these findings, “Benin” would serve as a more accurate historical fact based sobriquet for the southern parts of Nigeria in discussion.



Another map from 1644 also puts “Biafara” solidly in Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea and São Tomé and Príncipe and far from Nigeria’s furthest Eastern border. Apparently the prior name of the territory now called Biafra by this group was recognized and mapped as “Benin,” and never Biafra in all historic maps.



Origins Of The Name “Biafra”

According to Encyclopaedia britannica: a dictionary of arts, sciences …, Volume 12, the name “Biafra” from “Bight of Biafra, comes from the word, “Mafra,” a town in Portugal.

The Portuguese named a country extending from Cameroon southward to Equatorial Guinea, “Biafra,” but the name was later dropped in the later part of the 19th century.



The Bight of Biafra, or Mafra (named after the town Mafra in southern Portugal), between Capes Formosa and Lopez, is the most eastern part of the Gulf of Guinea; it contains the islands Fernando Po [Equitorial Guinea], Prince’s and St Thomas’s [São Tomé and Príncipe]. The name Biafra-as indicating the country-fell into disuse in the later part of the 19th century.

Politics / More Migrants Crossed Med In October Than All Of 2014 by jellyfish86: 10:56am On Nov 05, 2015
Just one number that shows how much damage Merkel's policy has done. A whole bunch of Afghans decided to make their way to Germany. Meanwhile Med traffic dramatically spiked .
The U.N. refugee agency says more than 218,000 migrants crossed the Mediterranean in October — a record monthly tally this year and more than in all of 2014.
The agency estimates that about 216,000 people crossed the Mediterranean last year, while another 3,000 crossed Turkey's land border.
Spokesman Adrian Edwards on Monday called the October figure "beyond anything that could have been expected even a few months ago."
UNHCR estimates that more than 600,000 people crossed the Mediterranean this year.
It'll get worse than this if Europe doesn't close the door that Merkel opened. And close it hard.
Every day that passes, more Muslims decide to make their way to Europe. Absorption capacity has already been exceeded, but the flow isn't going to stop unless it's clear that all arrivals will be sent back.

Politics / Biafra Leader Nnamdi Kanu's Death Rumour Surfaces As DSS Refuse To Produce Him by jellyfish86: 12:52am On Oct 27, 2015
The Department of State Security Service, DSS, on Friday refused to produce Radio Biafra Director, Nnamdi Kanu who was arrested last Monday on his return from United kingdom, arraigned secretly at Magistrate Court, Wuse 11, and granted bail under stringent bail conditions.

Nnamdi’s Lawyer, Mr.Egechukwu Obetta, who spoke to Vanguard in his Enugu office Saturday, said, ”we have fulfilled his bail conditions.

Although the bail conditions were stringent which required the Certificate of Occupancy of a landed property within Abuja municipality, a level 16 officer in the Ministry, which we eventually met in full.
“The documents of the landed property was transmitted to the DSS prosecuting counsel by the court clerk. On Friday, we expected that the DSS would have verified the authenticity of the landed property documents. As a matter of practice,the verification does not last beyond 24 hours. As at Friday, DSS did not transmit the verification to the court.
“On that same Friday,we brought the situation to the court’s attention upon which the court issued Form 36(FCT) ordering the DSS to produce the prisoner(Nnamdi). The Form 36 was issued by Justice Ahmed Usman Shuaibu dated October 23 ordering DSS to produce the prisoner.
“Upon the issuance of this Form 36,the court ordeal went to execute the order but came back unsuccessful. He was unable to produce the prisoner. The DSS latter granted me access to my client who is hale and hearty. He is in good spirit. His condition is very good and has also been granted access to his medical doctor.
“He(Nnamdi) has instructed me to enjoin his followers to remain calm and be law abiding citizens. The DSS instead of obeying court order to remand my client in prison custody,choose to remand him in their detention facility inorder to stall Form 36 ordering them to produce my client”.

Politics / Cair Demands Muslim Indoctrination Of 12-year-olds by jellyfish86: 6:51am On Oct 16, 2015
The terrorist-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is demanding that public school students in overwhelmingly Christian Tennessee be taught that the Islamic prophet Muhammad is the one and only true messenger of God.
No one seems to know why the Volunteer State has become a target of Religion of Peace activists. A 2014 Pew Research Center study found 81 percent of Tennessee residents are Christian, and only 1 percent are Muslims. The national average is 70.6 percent Christian and 0.9 percent Muslim.
But the self-styled Muslim civil rights group is warning Tennesseans about a proposed law that would forbid public schools in the state from teaching the principles of The Religion of Peace and every other religion until the 10th grade. Of course, whether Islam is even a religion per se has become a topic of lively debate. As outspoken ex-Muslim Ayaan Hirsi Ali says "Islam is not a religion of peace, it's a political theory of conquest that seeks domination by any means it can."
As Hirsi Ali opines and FrontPage readers are painfully aware, Islam is not content to be treated equally alongside other world religions. It insists on supremacy. As the San Ramon Valley Herald reported, CAIR founder Omar Ahmad told California Muslims exactly that in 1998, years before Americans were paying attention to Islam.
"If you choose to live here ... you have a responsibility to deliver the message of Islam," he said. The report paraphrased Ahmad adding, "Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faiths, but to become dominant. The Koran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth." Ahmad also said, "Everything we need to know is in the Koran. We don't need to look somewhere else."
Since the 9/11 attacks, and particularly in the Obama era, Muslim supremacists have been crossing the increasingly fuzzy dividing line between bona fide Islamic advocacy and outright Islamist infiltration of American institutions.
Aided by the Left's relentless agitation for so-called diversity and multiculturalism, which is the crude belief that all cultures are equal, the taxpayer-funded Islamization of America is well underway.
The activism of CAIR, which has ties to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood, comes as FBI director James Comey warns that the head-cutting savages of Islamic State (a.k.a. ISIS, ISIL, and Daesh) are using social media "24 hours a day" across the United States to recruit homegrown terrorists. Aspiring jihadists who won't travel overseas are told to "kill where you are,” he said. “So we have investigations in all 50 states to try to identify, among hundreds of people who are consuming this poison, where are they on the stages from consuming to acting, and how do we stop them from acting.”
CAIR isn't concerned about terrorism and theocratic totalitarianism as it lashes out at its critics, preying on Americans' sense of fair play, as well as their belief in equality and religious freedom.
So naturally CAIR is smearing supporters of the anti-religious indoctrination bill as bigots and Islamophobes. Those who follow the news know that there is no such thing as "Islamophobia," a deliberately vague conceptual vessel into which meaning may be poured. It is a word coined by Islamists to silence critics. This is why CAIR, which the United Arab Emirates has officially designated a terrorist organization alongside Islamic State, the Taliban, and al-Qaeda, wields it like a cudgel.
The apparently popular Tennessee measure, House Bill 1418, "if it becomes law, would prevent the teaching of all 'religious doctrine' until students reach the last three years of high school," Eric Owens reports at the Daily Caller.
The bill was introduced by Republican Sheila Butt, the Majority Floor Leader in the Tennessee House of Representatives, and author of several parenting books. Butt is championing the legislation, according to the news report, after parents complained about "what they perceive as an inappropriate focus on Islam in history and social studies courses in taxpayer-funded middle schools."
"I think that probably the teaching that is going on right now in seventh, eighth grade is not age-appropriate," Butt said. Students "are not able to discern a lot of times whether it's indoctrination or whether they're learning about what a religion teaches."
Attacking Butt's proposal, CAIR government affairs manager Robert McCaw predictably sneered:
Islamophobes like Rep. Butt fail to recognize that there is a big difference between teaching students about religion as an important part of world history and promoting particular religious beliefs. The education of children in Tennessee should not be delayed because of anti-Muslim bigotry.
Bigotry, of course, has nothing to do with it.
As Owens writes:
Complaining parents from across Tennessee have expressed alarm in recent weeks because their children in public middle schools are learning about the Five Pillars of Islam in a world history and social studies classes. (The first and most important pillar is roughly translated as: “There is no god but God. Muhammad is the messenger of God.”) At the same time, the parents say, the course material pointedly ignores Christianity.
One of those worried parents, Brandee Porterfield, who has a daughter in the 7th grade at Spring Hill Middle School in Spring Hill, Tenn., complained when her child came home with schoolwork focused on Islam's central tenets, including the Five Pillars of Islam.
As Owens notes, Porterfield was alarmed that her daughter was directed by her teacher to write a truncated version of the first pillar, known as the
shahada. Porterfield said the teacher directed the child to write: “Allah is the only God.”
Porterfield, who appears to be just one of many angry parents around Spring Hill, said she accepts that knowing something about Islam is essential to grasping world history. But she was alarmed that Christianity was excluded from her daughter's studies.
“I have big problem with that. From a historical point of view, that’s a lot of history these kids are missing,” Porterfield said. “Also, for them to spend three weeks on Islam after having skipped Christianity, it seems to be that they are making a choice about which religion to discuss.”
One of the taxpayer-supported agents of this Muslim indoctrination, Metro Nashville Public Schools social studies teacher Kyle Alexander, is a living, breathing example of the problem. In an interview with the
Tennessean , he defended inflating the accomplishments of the Islamic world before captive, impressionable 12-year-olds.
Demonstrating a superficial, politically correct understanding of Islam, he said, "[t]he reality is the Muslim world brought us algebra, 'One Thousand and One Nights,' and some can argue it helped bring about the Renaissance. There is a lot of influence that that part of the world had on world history."
While it is true that Muslim countries had an impact on world history, it isn't quite as Alexander described. For example, algebra. President Obama made the same claim in his fact-averse 2009 speech in Cairo that was calculated to flatter Muslims. As Ann Coulter indignantly retorted at the time:
Operating on the liberal premise that what Arabs really respect is weakness, Obama listed Muslims' historical contributions to mankind, such as algebra (actually, that was the ancient Babylonians), the compass (that was the Chinese), pens (the Chinese again), and medical discoveries (would that be clitorectomies?).
Education officials have been taking their cues from the White House.
Throughout his presidency Barack Hussein Obama, who has described the Muslim call to prayer as "one of the prettiest sounds on earth at sunset," has been obsessed with boosting self-esteem in the most backward countries on the planet. The president even made the space agency NASA into a Muslim outreach organization.
NASA chief Charles Bolden told Al-Jazeera in 2010 that he was tasked "to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math and engineering."
Michael Griffin, who ran NASA during George W. Bush's presidency, shot back:
NASA was chartered by the 1958 Space Act to develop the arts and sciences of flight in the atmosphere and in space and to go where those technologies will allow us to go. That’s what NASA does for the country. It is a perversion of NASA’s purpose to conduct activities in order to make the Muslim world feel good about its contributions to science and mathematics.
The kind of indoctrination Griffin references is legion. Universities, think tanks, and media outlets are armed to the teeth with Islamic propaganda, some of which is funded by U.S. taxpayers and Islamists overseas. For all we know, public school teaching plans in Tennessee and other states are already being based on these heavily biased materials.
Islamophile Carl W. Ernst, Kenan Distinguished Professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, provides a resource page on so-called Islamophobia on his taxpayer-supported website. It encourages readers to gorge themselves on self-serving drivel from the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center and the Center for American Progress. It refers readers to the Bridge Initiative: A Research Project on Islamophobia at the Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding at Georgetown University and the Islamophobia Research & Documentation Project at the University of California, Berkeley. At Berkeley, the Institute for South Asia Studies offers "K-14" lesson plans.
Resources for combating Islamophobia abound on the Internet.
There is the University of Pittsburgh-based three-state Consortium for Educational Resources on Islamic Studies (CERIS). There is the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) booklet, "Guidelines for Educators on Countering Intolerance and Discrimination against Muslims: Addressing Islamophobia through Education." There is the Middle East Institute at Columbia University. There is "Teaching Tolerance," a project of the Southern Poverty Law Center. There is the teacher guide, "Islam in Asia: People, Practices, Tradition," put out jointly by the University of Washington and the Seattle Times. Portland State University provides "Middle East Teaching Tools: Resources for Educators," which is intended "to support education about the Middle East at the K-12 level." There are resource pages on the website of Harvard University's Center for Middle Eastern Studies and on the websites of many other institutions of higher learning.
In "Islam: Empire of Faith," taxpayer-supported PBS
soothingly reassures Americans that "[i]n contrast to many other religions, the basic practice of Islam is simplicity itself. The believer worships God directly without the intercession of priests or clergy or saints." PBS even provides suggested lesson plans for 5th graders.
Meanwhile, there have been other incidents involving the teaching of Islam in Tennessee.
As Owens reports:
Since the fracas about Islam in middle school erupted across Tennessee earlier this school year, state education officials have insisted that the Islam curriculum is purely secular and designed to inform students about history.
Last month Maury County Public Schools middle school supervisor Jan Hanvey told The Daily Herald, a newspaper out of Columbia, Tenn., that students learn about the Five Pillars of Islam during a one-day segment of the seventh-grade curriculum.
Students also study Buddhism and Hinduism, the former social studies teacher noted.
However, at no point do Tennessee middle school students study Christianity per se. There is not, for example, one class day dedicated to the basic Jesus story.
Hanvey promised that Maury County students would eventually come across a reference to Christianity when history teachers reach the “Age of Exploration” in eighth grade. Then, students will hear about Christians persecuting other Christians in some countries in Western Europe.
Tennessee has also been targeted by Muslims in other ways in recent years.
In July, Kuwaiti-born Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez, killed four U.S. Marines on military property in Chattanooga. In February, Islamic State urged its supporters to assassinate American-born Yasir Qadhi, a professor at Rhodes College in Memphis. In 2013 Sunset Elementary School in a Nashville suburb pandered to Islamic sensibilities by banning pork. The prohibition was lifted a day later after parents complained.
And in the age of Obama, classrooms across America have become both metaphorical, and to a lesser extent, literal, battlegrounds for Islamists.
Binghamton University anthropologist Richard T. Antoun was stabbed to death in his office in 2009 by Saudi-born graduate student Abdulsalam al-Zahrani. Antoun, reportedly a Unitarian Universalist, was on the three-member doctoral dissertation that was to judge Zahrani's thesis. Likely a jihad supporter, Zahrani "was all the time shouting in Arabic, shouting threats, insulting this country for no reason," according to his roommate.
Although the 2009 mass-shooting at the Fort Hood military base in Killeen, Texas, did not take place in a classroom, the shooter, U.S. Army Major Nidal Malik Hasan, used classrooms to advance jihad and attack the Global War on Terror.
He once gave a medical lecture to fellow psychiatrists in which he called for Muslims to pour burning oil down the throats of infidels and slice their heads off. Studying for a master's degree in public health, "[h]e was put on probation early in his postgraduate work ... for allegedly proselytizing about his Muslim faith with patients and colleagues[.]" While other students in an environmental health course examined topics like mold and water contamination, Hasan's project was about "whether the war on terror is a war against Islam," a classmate said.
At his 2013 court-martial, Hasan bragged about his crimes. He said he "switched sides" and that "we mujahideen are imperfect soldiers trying to establish a perfect religion in the land of the supreme god." Evidence showed Hasan had been in contact with Anwar al-Awlaki, an American-born jihadist who, before he was killed by a U.S. Hellfire missile, was a senior al-Qaeda operative.
A fortnight ago Chris Harper-Mercer shot and killed eight classmates and his Jewish instructor at Umpqua Community College in Oregon. His manifesto has yet to be released. Although no publicly available evidence shows Harper-Mercer, a collector of overpriced Nazi-SS paraphernalia, was influenced by Islamofascist groups, Islamic State reportedly claimed responsibility for the attack.
Harper-Mercer murdered the bulk of his victims the same way that Muslim terrorist groups like Kenya's Al Shabaab do. The 26-year-old man reportedly asked those present if they were Christian. Those who answered in the affirmative were shot in the head.
Like Harper-Mercer, Al Shabaab asks people their religion and executes them on the spot if they give the "wrong" answer. Notably, Alek Skarlatos, a devout Christian who helped prevent a jihadist attack on a packed train in France this summer, was registered as a student at Umpqua. Hours after the attack he told TV host Ellen DeGeneres that he would have been on campus if he hadn't been in Los Angeles to appear on "Dancing with the Stars." "I had classes picked out and everything," Skarlatos said.
Robert Spencer reported last year that Sudanese cleric Muhammad Al-Jazouli said in a sermon that if the United States conducts airstrikes on Islamic State fighters in Iraq that all U.S. embassies and interests would become “legitimate targets.”
Relying on the work of the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), Spencer wrote that the Muslim leader said schools in the U.S. are fair game for jihadists:
Oh Americans, if your armed forces land in Iraq once again, this will mean a new phase in targeting you – your tourist resorts, your embassies in our Arab capitals, your diplomatic delegations, your universities and schools, your coffee shops and restaurants, your airplanes and ships, your shops and companies.
[...]
If a single American plane flies over Iraq in order to strike at ISIS, it will be one of our most obligatory religious duties to support the nucleus of the righteous caliphate, by turning all the American embassies and interests into legitimate targets. Play a role in defending the nucleus of the caliphate!
The U.S. has yet to re-invade Iraq, but it has been carrying out airstrikes against Islamic State.
As you read this, would-be killers may be preparing to honor the cleric's wishes.
Although it happened in France, one young would-be terrorist just took action for Allah in school.
The Daily Mail (UK) is reporting that a 15-year-old student attacked his teacher in a French classroom while screaming the jihadist battle cry "Allahu Akbar." The unidentified pupil shot his teacher with a BB gun after reportedly "devising a plan to kill his literature tutor and die a martyr." A week after devising the plan, the boy "brought a knife and airsoft gun and grenade to Oehmichen Technical School in the city of Chalons-en-Champagne, France."
And when it happens again, stateside or not, young American public school students will be asked to define deviancy down as they ponder the real "root causes" behind the attack and are cautioned against judging the terrorists too harshly. Islamophobia, U.S. foreign policy, the continuing, stubborn existence of Israel, capitalism, the exploitation of the Third World, poverty, or unemployment drove the jihadists, youngsters will be told.
But the clock is ticking. As Muslim values are inculcated in young Americans, toleration of Islamism is likely to spread. In fairly short order it may be too late to retrieve young American minds from error.

Vicjustice:

Well, like i explained, the Latvian Ministry Of Foreign Affairs is responsible for screening the personality and calibre the the person who is inviting, and also the circumstances of the one who is to be invited: and once the invitation has been given a pass, the visa is almost certain unless the embassy finds probable cause to deny it.
This regulation does not apply to someone who is applying for tourist visa without invitation.

Thank you so much brother, my girlfriend is inviting me she just submitted application at their ministry of foreign affairs, so Right Now we are waiting for their verdict.
Once again, special thanks for the reply.
Politics / 80% Of Germans Want Border Controls, 59% Oppose Syrian Migrants by jellyfish86: 4:25pm On Oct 10, 2015
The Merkel Migration gets a thumbs down from most Germans.
October 9, 2015 Daniel Greenfield 9 

The numbers are in and Merkel's policy of filling Germany and Europe with every Muslim who can hitch a ride is wildly unpopular. The Merkel Migration gets a thumbs down from most Germans. As does the open borders argument she made in the EU.
Four-fifths of respondents told pollsters that they were in favour of border controls in a new survey released on Monday.
Well over half - 59 percent - of respondents thought Chancellor Angela Merkel had been wrong to allow Syrian refugees to travel unhindered to Germany from Hungary.
That was a big turnaround from the last poll on the subject, in which 66 percent of people asked said it had been the right decision to let the Syrians in...
A major media push can override common sense, but then when the consequences kick in, they start waking up. And the consequences have been kicking in, in a big way.
Everyone can see that the majority of Muslim migrants are not sad Syrian toddlers, but angry Muslim men who stage riots and attack each other with guns, knives and iron bars. The crime rate in Germany has dramatically increased and the full numbers from this latest flood aren't even in yet. There's talk of 1.5 million and then 7 million .
The moral of the story is that public opinion on an issue can be surprisingly flexible. A big media push shifts numbers when there's no significant pushback. We've seen that happen in the US with illegal aliens. If you don't fight back, then yes the media will be scoring solid margins of support for the latest leftist disaster. Most people have a limited amount of interest in politics and if they don't hear the other side, then nothing happens.

Politics / Islamic State: If 10 Muslims Rape A Non-muslim Woman, She Becomes Muslim by jellyfish86: 11:06am On Oct 10, 2015
Apparently Islam is a lot like an STD. Except it's
transmitted through rape and mass murder. At least that's what the Islamic State says. And who can question the Caliph?
Noor (not her real name) was sold into slavery after ISIS overran her village in the Iraqi province of Sinjar. The 22-year-old says the militant who picked her out raped her -- but not before trying to justify himself.
"He showed me a letter and said, 'This shows any captured women will become Muslim if 10 ISIS fighters rape her.' There was a flag of ISIS and a picture of Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi."
After abusing her, he passed her on to 11 of his friends, who also raped her.
Islamic State Jihadists had previously described raping non-Muslim children as a form of worship of Allah.
In the moments before he raped the 12-year-old girl, the Islamic State fighter took the time to explain that what he was about to do was not a sin. Because the preteen girl practiced a religion other than Islam, the Quran not only gave him the right to rape her — it condoned and encouraged it, he insisted.
He bound her hands and gagged her. Then he knelt beside the bed and prostrated himself in prayer before getting on top of her.
When it was over, he knelt to pray again, bookending the rape with acts of religious devotion.
“I kept telling him it hurts — please stop,” said the girl, whose body is so small an adult could circle her waist with two hands.
“He told me that according to Islam he is allowed to rape an unbeliever. He said that by raping me, he is drawing closer to Allah,” she said in an interview alongside her family in a refugee camp here, to which she escaped after 11 months of captivity.
Every time that he came to rape me, he would pray,” said F, a 15-year-old girl who was captured on the shoulder of Mount Sinjar one year ago and was sold to an Iraqi fighter in his 20s. Like some others interviewed by The New York Times, she wanted to be identified only by her first initial because of the shame associated with rape.
“He kept telling me this is ibadah,” she said, using a term from Islamic scripture meaning worship.
“He said that raping me is his prayer to Allah. I said to him, ‘What you’re doing to me is wrong, and it will not bring you closer to Allah.’ And he said, ‘No, it’s allowed. It’s halal,’ ” said the teenager, who escaped in April with the help of smugglers after being enslaved for nearly nine months….
Of course CNN throws in the obligatory claim that enslaving and raping women is un-Islamic. But that would make Islam's Prophet Mohammed... Un-Islamic.
"The people of ISIS don't represent Islam at all. In fact, if anything, they are anti-Islam," says London-based Imam Ajmal Masroor. "They have hijacked Islam. They have denigrated Islam. They have desecrated it."
"In Islam taking anyone as captive, mistreating them using them as sex slaves, torturing them and killing them is totally prohibited.
Except that Mohammed had sex slaves and his men distributed captives. Is the Koran un-Islamic?
The ISIS pamphlet in support of sex slavery quotes the Koran.
"Question 4: Is it permissible to have intercourse with a female captive?
"It is permissible to have sexual intercourse with the female captive. Allah the almighty said: '[Successful are the believers] who guard their chastity, except from their wives or (the captives and slaves) that their right hands possess, for then they are free from blame [Koran 23:5-6]'..."
Mohammed enslaved and raped women. Did Mohammed hijack Islam?
