An Islamic fatwa forbidding Muslims to pass through airport full body scanners cuts to the very heart of the issue of Islam’s fundamental incompatibility with modern secular western society.

The ruling that Muslims cannot subject themselves to the full body scans, which were ironically installed after a Muslim would-be airplane bomber hid explosives in his underpants, was issued by the Fiqh Council of North America.

The ruling was based on Koranic law which states that “It is a violation of clear Islamic teachings that men or women be seen naked by other men and women,” said the Muslim organisation.

There are already forty such scanners in nineteen airports in America and it is estimated that there will be 450 installed within the next few months.

The scanners are also being installed in Britain, where authorities have said that any passengers refusing to pass through them will not be allowed to board an aircraft.

This scanner issue is however only one symptom of the obvious and growing rift between the increasing waves of Muslim immigrants in the West and the resultant population growth caused by their dramatically higher reproduction levels.

In all aspects of society, the growing Islamic influence has shown itself to be completely opposed to the fundamental underpinnings of modern Western society.

With regards to the very principle of democracy, for example, Islam prohibits many areas on which fundamental democratic concepts are based.

In Islam only God reserves the right to make laws while in democracy people make laws. This prohibition is very widespread in the Islamic world and is based on very clear utterances in the Koran, namely:

“Do they then seek the legislation of (the Days of) Ignorance? And who is better in legislating than God for a people who have Faith.” [5:50]

“And whoever rules not by what God has revealed, those are the wrongdoers.” [5:45]

“The rule is only for God.” [12:40]

“And He (God) allows none to share in his rule.” [18:26]

This is seen in practice as well. A report in the Middle East Quarterly magazine of Fall 2007, titled “Are Muslim Countries Less Democratic?” concluded that “Islamic doctrine also places little emphasis on individual rights, especially by those Muslim sects such as the Shi‘a whose leaders have stressed a theocratic approach toward government. Although the leaders of some Muslim nations have severed the bonds between mosque and state, many of these same rulers still maintained the politically repressive traditions of their countries to enhance their own power.

“Moreover, this democracy deficit is likely to remain for many years in the future.  These conclusions imply, in turn, that exporting democracy to the Middle East or other Muslim countries may not be impossible but will certainly have a very distant horizon.”

It is no coincidence that there is not one fully democratic (in the western sense) Islamic nation on earth.

It is not only in democracy where the fundamental incompatibility of Islam and western democracies comes to the fore. The well-known topics of women’s rights, homosexuality, alcohol and freedom of religion have all been revealed as points of divergence.

Pope Benedict’s September 12, 2006 speech at the University of Regensburg aptly summed up the situation: “Islam has a total organization of life that is completely different from ours; it embraces simply everything,” he said.

“There is a very marked subordination of woman to man; there is a very tightly knit criminal law, indeed, a law regulating all areas of life, that is opposed to our modern ideas about society. One has to have a clear understanding that it is not simply a denomination that can be included in the free realm of a pluralistic society.”

“The building of minarets is banned” is now an official sentence in the constitution of Switzerland following that country’s landmark referendum. Does it mark the beginning of Europe’s fight back against Islamic colonisation?

According to Swiss politician, Daniel Zingg, the man widely credited with launching the Swiss referendum project, “The minarets are spearheads of the Sharia.

“They are signs of territory newly conquered by Islam,” Mr Zingg said, adding that the ban means that the “Swiss have solved a problem that has already become seemingly intractable elsewhere, such as in the large cities of England and France.

“It’s a well-known fact that first come the minarets, then the muezzins, with their calls to prayer, the burqas and finally Sharia law,” he says.

Controversially, Mr Zingg added this important point to the press interviews he gave in the wake of the referendum, “The Koran gives (people) the mission to Islamise the world, and the Muslims here have no other mission, otherwise they would not be Muslims.”

This remarkable clarity and understanding of the mission of Islam — to conquer as much territory as possible for that religion — is a message which the British National Party alone has sounded in Britain for the past several years.

Muslim immigration into Europe has now reached critical levels. Surveys carried out in the aftermath of the Swiss poll showed that 44 percent of Germans and 41 percent of French oppose the construction of minarets.

In addition, 55 percent of all Europeans see Islam as an “intolerant religion,” according to the polls.

Banning the minarets is however like putting an elastoplast onto cancer. The real issue is not whether Muslims want to build minarets or wear burqas. The real issue is the fact that there are enough Muslims already present to demand that they can build minarets and wear burqas.

In other words, it is no good complaining about the physical cultural manifestations which result from the presence of large Islamic populations.

It is an iron law of nature that a culture will change once the ethnic composition of the resident population changes.

If the population of Birmingham becomes Islamic through immigration and is enhanced in numbers through high birth rates, then it is logical that the outer cultural manifestations of that population change will reflect themselves — in the construction of mosques, minarets and the wearing of burqas.

This is a process known as colonisation: when a foreign people enter a new land in large numbers and set up their own way of life in the areas which they have seized from the indigenous people.

At current Muslim immigration levels, Europe will cease to be European by 2050. Projections made by the Austrian census office say that by 2050, the majority of people under the age of 15 will be Muslims.

Muhammad is already the most common name for newborn boys in Brussels and Amsterdam and at least second, if not first, in England.

As Europe has slept, Islam has been busy with what it plans to be the final step in its 1,300 year-old war to seize Europe.

In previous centuries, the Islamic hordes have used military invasion to try and seize Europe for Muhammad. Within 100 years of its founding, Islamic armies had invaded all of Christian North Africa and the Middle East, forcing the inhabitants to convert to Islam by force.

The Islamic armies then attacked Western Europe by invading through Spain, and were only defeated in that attempt by the Franks under Charles Martel who repelled the invaders at the Battle of Tours in 732.

That great victory halted the Islamic invasion from conquering all of Western Europe, although it was not until 1492 that the last Muslim invaders were driven out of Spain.

In the interim, Islamic armies had seized Sicily and parts of southern Italy, while the Muslim Ottoman Turks attacked and destroyed the Eastern Roman Empire. Once the great citadel of Constantinople had been seized in 1453, the Muslim armies advanced right up though the Balkans to the gates of Vienna.

It was only in 1683 that the invading Islamic army was defeated at the Austrian capital, and it took until the end of the First World War to finally driven the Ottoman Muslims off European soil. The damage this Muslim invasion did to Eastern Europe was so pervasive that the scars can be seen to this day.

The great Christian citadel of Constantinople was renamed Istanbul, a name by which it is still known today. The Christian church built by the Roman Emperor Justinian was turned into a mosque. This building still dominates the Istanbul skyline — but as a symbol of its subjection to Islam, it had minarets added to its four corners to demonstrate to the world that it had been seized by Muslims.

In the latter part of the 20th Century, Islam, which had never given up its intention to seize Europe, perceived that western liberalism and the insane open doors immigration policies pursued by leftist and conservative parties alike, had provided an opportunity to renew their assault.

So it is the battle of our time is not being fought at the gates of Vienna, nor around the battlements of Constantinople. This time, it is being fought against the old gang parties who seek to grant Islam its final victory by allowing the colonisation of Britain — and indeed all of Europe — via mass Third World immigration.

The British National Party and allied parties in other European nations stand as the final defence against this process which, if left unchecked, will see the green flag of Islam finally conquer Europe.

Is the Swiss referendum the first sign of European resistance to the Islamic colonisation of our continent?  Only the voters will be able to answer that question.

Recommended reading: Jihad: Islam’s 1,300 Year War on Western Civilisation, by Arthur Kemp.

For centuries, violent Muslims have been trying to capture Europe for Islam. Sweeping out from its origin in Saudi Arabia, Islam has expanded through violent conquest into North Africa, the Middle and Near East, and very nearly into Europe itself, attacking through Spain, Italy and the Balkans. Each time, the Islamic hordes were turned back by a united European military effort.

Today, the Islamic invasion is not being carried out with sieges, scimitars, or cannon, but rather by immigration, birth rates and demographics.

Given current trends, Europe is set to be overrun before the end of this century.

This book puts the current crisis into historical perspective, showing that instead of being a “religion of peace,” violent Islam has, in fact, been waging war on all its self-appointed opponents since its inception.

Finally, this book dares to say what must be done if Europe is to avoid succumbing to the new invasion. The choice is hard, but is one which will determine whether Western civilisation lives or dies. Softcover, 72 pp.  £8.95 Click here to order online.

The mere suggestion that Muslims will react violently to even the mildest criticism of their religion is already causing publishers in Europe to bow down to self-imposed censorship.

German media reports that the Dusseldorf publishing company, Droste, has cancelled plans to publish a mass-market novel out of fears that it might face violent protests due to an ‘offensive’ reference to the Koran.

The novel, titled To Those Worthy of Honour, deals with the so-called honour killing of a Muslim woman. It had been scheduled for publication in September, but Droste decided not to print it.

The publisher had first asked the author, Gabriele Brinkmann, writing under the pen name WW Domsky, to tone down dialogue which might be construed as offensive, but she had refused.

The offensive phrase in question was a character saying: “You can shove your Koran up your …”

Apparently the publisher, Felix Droste, had asked an “expert on Islamic society” to study whether the crime story’s text could compromise the safety of his firm or his family.

The expert warned that publication of the book would incite Muslims in Germany and suggested the phrase be modified to “You can shove your honour up your …”

The author, however, refused the change and the book publication was halted.

The publisher then wrote back to Ms Brinkman saying that riots over Danish cartoons that poked fun at the Prophet Mohammed in 2005 “showed that anyone publishing insults to Islam was putting their safety at risk.”

And so the Islamic colonisation of Europe continues, aided and abetted by immigration policies created by successive establishment parties all across Europe.
