Islamic prayers on the streets and the rule of law

Muslims in Italy defy local laws in order to intimidate citizens using "in your face" tactics.  The local police are afraid to confront these Jihadists and so Italy moves further into dhimmitude.

Islamic prayers on the streets and the rule of law
by Samir Khalil Samir, SJ

 

A group of men stop to pray in the Milan Gallery. Municipal police called but say they can not stop them. But all public demonstrations must be authorized and the law must be above everything.

Milan (AsiaNews)

I read a news story the other day that made me jump. The scene is Milan, in the middle of the Vittorio Emanuele Gallery, Wednesday 17 March at 17:00. A group of 7 people stop in front of the Giorgio Bernasconi silverware shop. Take off their shoes and jackets, lay them on the ground and kneel on them. One of them is an imam who leads the group, which begins to pray the pray 'asr. The shop owner asks them to move away from his window. Nothing. The owner calles the police, who reply “they are praying, we can’t do anything".

Bernasconi explains: "In the Milan Gallery, any type of public event needs authorization. There are municipal police who even book artists for daring to put the foot of a tripod on one of the mosaics and if someone dares to ride a bike, they receive heavy fines. But they did nothing; they did not even check their documents".  The Muslims explained that "when the time comes for prayer, wherever they are, they kneel and begin their liturgy."

It is not an unfamiliar scene. In Viale Jenner it is a regular sight, as in many quarters of all European cities. It is obvious that, in this case at least, the action was planned and organized to give "testimony" to the "unbelievers" (kuffar) of the West!

It is a well studied act of religious propaganda!

But the scandal is not so much the attitude of the men in prayer. It is the reaction of the municipal police and the city. The street belongs to everyone, and nobody has the right to monopolize it, even for a quarter of an hour, without authorization. No matter what the reason: the procession of the Blessed Sacrament or prayer, political, social, sporting or any other kind of demonstration. The street belongs to everyone and can not be monopolized by anyone without prior authorization.

Beyond the fact that there is a question of principle. The law is above everything and everyone, even above religion. In this case, Muslims are not obliged to say their prayers immediately and on the street. The vast majority of observant Muslims, in Muslim countries, wait until they are home to pray. Furthermore, the Islamic Sharia authorizes the faithful to combine two prayers when the need requires it. So such behaviour cannot be justified by religious obligation. Anyway, it could not be used as an excuse! It is purely an act of propaganda and proselytizing.

The problem is twofold. On the one hand, Muslims often tend to think that religion is above the law and civil standards. This is because the concept of secularism in Muslim countries is almost nonexistent, despite the theories of some "orientalists" who claims that Islam, having no clergy like Christianity, is a secular religion, but we all know in our countries that clericalism in Islam is much greater than that of Christianity, even of Orthodox Christianity! In the common mentality, the "divine law" (but divine for whom?) exceeds the human law. Moreover, propaganda, Islamic Da'wa, is a religious obligation: every Muslim is expected to proclaim the profession of faith in the face of the wicked, and to invite them to Islam, the only true faith.

On the other hand, Homo Europaeus has become confused and has doubts about himself. Sometimes he behaves arrogantly in front of others, and sometimes he is silent and allows himself be droned out by the argument of others as if he felt guilty and was in need of forgiveness. Yet Europe, despite all its flaws (especially its spiritual emptiness) can be proud of its socio-political system. The mistake is to forsake this in the name of a false multiculturalism. The rules of the country, whatever they be, are binding on all. Even if they were wrong, they are valid until they are replaced by another lawful authority. Every concession is a step backwards for everyone.

We hope that this little incident will not happen again, and that everyone is made to understand what the Rule of Law means.

Italy: Mohammed called a 'paedophile' in TV spat

MP Daniela Santanche 

At last, a politician who is not afraid to "insult" Islam and who is willing to call Mohammed a pedophile, despite the PC brigades shock and horror.  More power to Daniela Santanche and may she rise to the leadership of Italy.  The dhimmi men of the Italian government (and all Western governments) should hang their heads in shame for their fear of calling out Islam as the barbaric 7th century cult it is.

Italy: Mohammed called a 'paedophile' in TV spat

Milan, 9 Nov. (AKI) - Italian feminist and former far right-wing MP Daniela Santanche has sparked a controversy after calling the Prophet Mohammed a "a polygamist and paedophile" during a TV debate. Santanche appeared on a television programme aired on the commercial channel, Canale 5 with the president of Milan's Islamic centre, Ali Abu Schwaima, on Sunday.

"Mohammed was a polygamist and a paedophile because he had nine wives, one of whom was only nine years old, that is a historical fact," said Santanche.

A former MP for the post-fascist National Alliance party, Santanche now leads the far-right La Destra party.

Her remark incensed Schwaima and Muslims in the audience, who had been invited to take part in a debate on the contentious issue of placing crucifixes in Italian classrooms after last week's ban by the European Court of Human Rights.

"Why don't we talk about serious things, not about your disgusting comments," he shouted at Santanche.

Santanche continued to shout back: "For us, Mohammed was a paedophile."

"You're just showing the ignorance of people like you who have no other arguments to use," bellowed Schwaima, jabbing his finger at her.

He claimed the crucifix should not be removed from classrooms in Italy.

"For us, Christ was one of the five main prophets and we respect him, like the crucifix."

But Santanche was not appeased by Schwaima's remark.

"We will never listen to Mohammed, who was a polygamist and a paedophile," screeched Santanche.

Studio ushers were seen physically restraining an irate, bearded member of the audience from lunging at her.

"I and my staff dissociate ourselves from these comments, which are offensive to Islam," Domenica Cinque's presenter, Barbara D'Urso, said in a statement issued after the programme.

A former MP for the post-fascist National Alliance party, Santanche ran for the lower house of parliament on the far-right La Destra list in last year's general election.

But the party failed to reach the 4 percent threshold required for election to the parliament.

Santanche was last year among rightwing protesters who opposed the conversion of a former velodrome into a mosque in Milan.

She opposes Muslim women wearing the veil in Italy and has called for a referendum to reopen the country's brothels.

Aisha was believed to be nine-years-old at the time of her marriage to Mohammed.

Child marriages such as Aisha's were relatively common in Bedouin societies at the time of the prophet and remain so in countries such as Yemen and Saudi Arabia among others.

Milan bomb cell 'do-it-yourself'

So we now have a new term in the lexicon: "Do-It-Yourself" Muslim terrorists.  More on the unsuccessful Muslim suicide bombing of an Italian military post.  This article from Italy is finally bringing the threat of individual, or small independent groups of Muslim terrorists into the mainstream media.  For too long, Western governments have passed off such attackers as mentally ill.  The only mental illness involved is Islam.

Milan bomb cell 'do-it-yourself'
No link to terrorist groups, intelligence says
13 October, 18:01

(ANSA) - Milan, October 13 - A man who let off a bomb outside a Milan police barracks Monday was part of a 'do-it-yourself' cell with two others with no links to jihadi groups, Italian intelligence said Tuesday.

The three acted alone and were not linked to al-Qaeda or other Islamist fighters, the sources said.

They formed a one-off cell but were ''no less dangerous because of their isolation and because they were ready to die for their cause''.

Police found some 40kg of ammonium nitrate and other bomb-making materials Tuesday and arrested the two accomplices of Mohamed Game, the Libyan who blew himself up early Monday after being spotted entering the barracks near the San Siro soccer ground.

The pair were named as Abdel Haziz Mahmoud Kol, an Egyptian neighbour of Game who allegedly drove him to the barracks, and Mohamed Imbaeya Israfel, a Libyan friend suspected of helping him make the bomb.

All three face the same charges in the bombing.

Another Muslim immigrant, a man with a common law wife and three childrenwho has licved in Italy for years has attacked the country that gave him shelter and a safe, free way of life.  His thanks to Italy was to try to bomb a  military installation.  Fortunately, he was the only one hurt seriously. 

Unfortunately, Italian MP and chief of the Italian lower house of parliament's national security committee, Francesco Rutelli claims that this attack was an "isolated act".  It's a sad state of affairs when a man charged with the defense of Italy does not understand that Muslim attacks are NEVER isolated acts, but part of a concerted effort to impose Sharia law on all of humanity.  All such acts are because of the absolute command by Mohammed that all Muslims must do their best to spread Sharia over the world.  Mr. Rutelli is not the only Western politician who does not yet accept that Islam is on the offensive against Western society.  Most Western politicians are of his misguided and dangerous opinion.

Italy: Attempted terror attack against army barracks injures soldier

Milan, 12 October (AKI) - An Italian soldier was injured on Monday after a Libyan man exploded a bomb hidden inside a toolbox at the entrance of the 'Santa Barbara' military barracks in the northern Italian city of Milan.

The 35 year-old Libyan tried to enter to enter the barracks at the same time a military vehicle was entering the gate. However, his car was stopped by a military guard.

The man then detonated a bomb. Some reports said he shouted: "The army must leave Afghanistan!"

The toolbox where the man hid the explosive device contained two more kilogrammes of explosives, and according to reports, it only partially detonated.

The injured Italian soldier was hit by ricochet splinters and received medical treatment on-site. The attack took place at 7:45am local time. Following the attack, the Libyan was taken to the Fatebenefratelli hospital in Milan where he is in critical condition.

The Libyan man suffered severe injuries to his face and eyesight and his hand has been amputated, according to medical sources at Fatebenefratelli hospital.

The man is said to have arrived in Milan aboard a train from the southern Italian city of Naples, although it is unclear when.

"A few weeks ago, during investigations, we overheard (tapped) conversations that referred to the 'via Peruchetti barracks'," Italian MP and chief of the Italian lower house of parliament's national security committee, Francesco Rutelli, told state radio.

Rutelli, however, said the attack "appears to be an isolated act."

The man has been living in Italy for many years and lives with an Italian woman with whom he has three children, sources said.

The woman is currently being interrogated by Italian police.

Italy: First veiled Italian Muslim woman runs for local elections

Creep, creep, creep. Another Muslim enters local politics in Italy. This is another incursion into secular politics by a Muslim. The only goal has to be the takeover of a secular country by political means, and then impose Sharia law. Just how are the voters, if they are so stupid to elect her, going to be able to tell if the veiled Muslim is who she says she is?

No Muslim should ever be allowed to hold elected office or a position that involves national security in any way, shape or form. In the end, every Muslim who remains true to Islam must side with Islam against whatever Western society they live in.

Italy: First veiled Italian Muslim woman runs for local elections

Perugia, 28 May (AKI) - An Italian Muslim woman wearing the veil, or hijab, in the central city of Perugia will for the first time run for local elections, on 6 and 7 June. Maymouna Abdel Qader, an Italian of Palestinian descent, is a political science graduate of the University of Perugia.

She is running for Perugia's communal council for the Sinistra e Liberta coalition, which is made up of mainly socialist, anti-war and secular parties.

"Though being the first veiled Muslim woman that has ever run for elections in Italy, until now I have received a positive response from the people, who have also appreciated my choice, and look at me as a novelty of the local political scene," said Abdel Qader in an interview with Adnkronos International (AKI).

Abdel Qader - who is the daughter of the imam of Perugia Mohammed Abdel Qader and is also one of the founders of the Young Italian Muslims association - said she is personally campaigning and distributing fliers to promote her candidacy.

"These days I am personally distributing fliers for my candidacy in order to ask the citzens of Perugia for their vote. Many have wished me well, after they see that I am Italian and not a foreigner," she told AKI.

Abdel Qader also said her objective is to represent Italy's second generation of Muslim immigrants in Italy, that are now what she calls "The new Italians".

Among the things she wants to promote if elected, is that Perugia's public pool can be reserved solely for women, at least once a week.

"It is a battle that it not just limited to Muslim women. The pool will be open to all women, and I count with the support of many women about this."

ISLAM: MARONI, NEW 'MOSQUE' EVERY 4/5 DAYS IN ITALY

A new mosque/cultural center every 5 days in Italy is a tsunami of islamic invasion. How many are created every day in America?

FROM ANSAMED.INFO:

ISLAM: MARONI, NEW 'MOSQUE' EVERY 4/5 DAYS IN ITALY (ANSAmed) - ROME, DECEMBER 5

There are two mosques in Italy which are just that: in Milan and in Rome. However, every 4/5 days a mosque is opened in the form of an Islamic cultural centre. So said in an interview Italy's Interior minister, Roberto Maroni. "Every four or five days, mosques are opened as cultural centres like the one in Macherio", he said, referring to the centre mentioned by the two Moroccan citizens arrested in Milan and accused of preparing attacks in Italy, "where there is prayer, teaching of the Koran and provision of food and drinks", even with public contributions, added the minister, drawing attention to the fact that the Milan centre is a not-for-profit organisation. Respecting the rules when opening such centres "goes for all Italians and all the more so for those who are not Italian", said Maroni, inviting councils and police to "make thorough checks".

The ironies of the West's collusion with the Arabs and Iran

Caroline Glick explores the dhimmitude and collusion of the Italian, and other western governments with radical islam.

FROM JEWISHWORLDREVIEW.COM:

The ironies of the West's collusion with the Arabs and Iran
By Caroline B. Glick
In a letter to Italy's Corriere della Serra in August, former Italian president and Senator-for-life Francesco Cossiga acknowledged that during the early 1970s, then Italian prime minister Aldo Moro signed an agreement with Yassir Arafat's PLO and affiliated organizations that enabled the Palestinians to field terrorists, operate bases and store weapons in Italy in exchange for immunity from attack for Italy and Italian interests worldwide. Cossiga also acknowledged that even when the Palestinians murdered Italians, the government still protected them. Indeed, he admitted for the first time that the largest terror attack ever to take place on Italian soil - the bombing of the Bologna train station in July 1980 which killed 85 people - was the work of PLO-affiliated terrorists from George Habash's Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
At the time of the bombing, Cossiga was Italy's prime minister. Right after it occurred, he blamed the atrocity on neo-fascists. In his words at the time, "Unlike leftist terrorism, which strikes at the heart of the state through its representatives, black terrorism prefers the massacre because it promotes panic and impulsive reactions."
In August, he claimed that it was the work of the PFLP and asserted that the bomb exploded inadvertently. That is, the Palestinians hadn't meant to kill non-Jews - so Italian authorities protected them.
On Friday, Cossiga expanded on his disclosures to Corriere della Serra in an interview with Yediot Aharonot's Rome correspondent Menachem Ganz. Cossiga admitted that it wasn't just Israeli targets that Italy permitted the Palestinians to attack with impunity, but Jewish targets as well. Indeed, in at least one and probably two incidents, the Italians colluded with the Palestinians in their attacks against Jews. On October 9, 1982, six terrorists opened fire on worshippers leaving Rome's Great Synagogue. Dozens of Jews were wounded and two-year-old Stefano Tache was murdered. Hours before the attack the Italian police detail charged with securing the synagogue was withdrawn.
Then too, in December 1985, Palestinian terrorists opened fire on the El Al ticket counter at the Rome airport. Ten people were killed. Another seven people were murdered in a simultaneous attack against the El Al ticket counter at the Vienna airport. According to Cossiga, Italian intelligence agencies received prior warning of the attack but didn't bother to share the information with Israel.
Cossiga explained to Yediot, "No Italian targets were hit. They attacked the Israeli airline at the airport. The murdered were all Israelis, Jews, and Americans."

Italy: Up to 20 arrests in anti-terror raids

Jihadi can be found in every western country. I believe that at some point, a triggering event will spur Jihadi cells wherever they are to whatever commit terrorist attacks they are working on. Central coordination is not necessary as the cells will see others going into action and decide that "now is the time". What will set them off? Who knows. But it will create pandemonium in the west and stretch law enforcement to the limits.
FROM ADNKRONOS.COM:
Italy: Up to 20 arrests in anti-terror raids
Rome, 6 Nov. (AKI) - Police have arrested at least 20 people allegedly linked to Islamic Salafite cells in a massive anti-terror campaign across Italy.

Following an order issued by a Milan court on Tuesday, police conducted raids in several northern cities and arrested several foreign nationals suspected of preparing suicide attacks in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Italian news agency Adnkronos said police found al-Qaeda instruction manuals for explosives production, long-distance triggering devices and manuals for guerilla techniques.

Police conducted dawn raids in several cities in northern Italy including Milan, Bergamo and Reggio Emilia.

The agency said warrants had been issued for about 20 people but it was not clear exactly how many had been arrested.

Investigations were continuing in Italy and other European countries where the alleged terrorists were believed to have links.

According to the Italian Carabinieri special operations group, the suspects are also alleged to have falsified identity documents, and promoted illegal immigration and supported the illegal movement of terrorism suspects.

In July Italian police uncovered an alleged bomb school for Islamic militants after raiding a mosque in the central Italian town of Perugia.

Explosives manuals and poisons were also found in the raid. Police said the suspected cell had links with al-Qaeda and they arrested the imam and two other men, all Moroccans.

CREEPING SHARIA

Italy: Court discriminates against Muslim girls
This is another example of creeping Sharia and Dhimmitude. Until the various government officials around the world find some courage to defend their own people from the outrageous attacks of Islam, the west will continue to crumble. the Italian supreme Court has put the barbaric customs of Islam above its own countries laws. This is plainly another case of physical cowardice.

FROM ISLAMINEUROPE.BLOGSPOT.COM:
Apparently, if you're a Moroccan in Italy you don't have the same rights as ethnic Italians.

The Italian supreme court recently rejected an appeal by the prosecution in the case of a Moroccan girl who had been beaten by her family, her parents and her brother. The appeal was rejected on the grounds that it was for her own good and for her non-conformity with their culture, she had gone out with a friend and her life style was not accepted by her parents.

This story starts in 2003 when the parents of Fatima R. (19), a Muslim girl from Bologna, were sentenced for tying Fatima up and beating her. The court of appeals reversed the decision and this past week the supreme court confirmed it.

According to the Italian judges that girl had not been beaten out of anger and it was unusual for the father, who had only beat his daughter three times in his life.

According to the prosecution Fatima had been tied to a chair and released only to be brutally beaten. However the supreme court ruled that Fatima had threatened suicide out of her fear and that she had been tied up in order to prevent her from doing so.

Souad Sbai of the Italian Association of Moroccan Women said that this decision was worthy of an Arab country which observed sharia law. and accused the judges of applying a double standard in the name of multiculturalism. According to Sbai a Catholic father in a similar case would have been harshly punished. Sbai says that there is excessive tolerance towards certain behaviors both from the right and left wing, who prefer political correctness over applying the Italian law.

According to the Italian Association of Moroccan Women at least nine Muslim women have been killed by their relatives in the past year.
