Swiss School Caves To Male Student Muslim Demands- No Shaking Female Teachers Hands

A school in Switzerland has caved to the religious demands of two Muslim male students who refuse to shake hands with their female teachers.

What next, demands for segregated classrooms?

And thus continues the  Islamization of the world.

Male Muslim students at a school in northern Switzerland will no longer have to shake hands with their female teachers, following a ruling that has caused an uproar across the country.

A school in the northern municipality of Therwil, in the canton of Basel, reached the controversial decision after two male students, aged 14 and 15, complained that the Swiss custom of shaking hands with the teacher is counter to their religious beliefs if the teacher is a woman.

They argued that Islam does not permit physical contact with a person of the opposite sex, with the exception of certain immediate family members.

The local Therwil council did not support the school's decision, but said it "will not intervene as [it] is the responsibility of the school to set the rules," spokeswoman Monika Wyss said.

The decision triggered an outcry across Switzerland, with the Justice Minister Simonetta Sommaruga insisting on Swiss public television Monday that "shaking hands is part of our culture".

Aussie 60 Minutes Video- Europe's Migrant Crisis, Crew Attacked In Sweden

An eye opening Australian "60 Minutes" segment about the catastrophic European refugee/migrant crisis.

I'm not sure when this aired, but it states that Sweden took in 165,000 refugees the prior year- as a result the country is on the brink of an economic and cultural disaster. There are currently 55 no go zones in Sweden, areas where police are forced to escort ambulances to ensure their safety. Just how unsafe is it?  In one suburb of Stockholm, inhabited by mostly Somali Muslims, some punk ran down the 60 minutes cameraman, then later the crew was attacked by a bunch of masked young African men.

Sweden's humanitarian and welfare state is coming back to bite them in their butts. Big time.

The Immigrant Problem In Malmö, Sweden- Video

Thirty percent of those living in the port city of Malmö, Sweden, are immigrants- in other words, mostly Muslim. The Rosengård neighbourhood of Malmö is estimated at more than 80 percent. In 2012, I posted a video about the rampant anti-Semitism there. With the influx of thousands more predominately Muslim refugees, it's only going to get worse.

There are some who are trying to integrate, but those same people complain about the lack of effort from their fellow immigrants. This leads to isolation, and in the case of Rosengård, 60 percent unemployment and major crime.

Erdogan Tells Europe - Handle Your Islamophobia Before You Criticize Turkey

Europe criticised Turkey (rightfully so) for its tanking freedom of the press, so the delusional President Recep Tayyip Erdogan countered by claiming Turkey has the world's "freest" press (not!)   and that Europe should tackle the rise in Islamophobia before it starts criticizing his country.

The European Union, which Turkey has been seeking to join for decades, said the media raids ran counter to European values, a criticism already dismissed by Erdogan. On Friday, the President repeated his discontent, with a visibly harsher tone.

"We are not Europe's scapegoat," Erdogan told a symposium of civil servants. "We are definitely not a country that Europe can point its finger at and scold. Instead of criticising us, Europe should find a solution to increasing racism and Islamophobia."

He made reference to an incident in the German city of Dormagen, where ultra nationalists drew Nazi signs on the walls of a mosque construction, according to reports in Turkish local media earlier this week.
First of all, any anti-Muslim rancor that exists today has been birthed by Islamic supremacy and Muslim entitlement. There were no problems with Muslims in the West until the conservative ones started with their demands, and then the violence. Prior to 9/11 hijabs were some exotic garb worn by some Middle Eastern women. Even back in the 1960s many Afghan women wore western clothing, same thing in Egypt, and Iran.  All that has changed. As they immigrated to the West and became more religious, the demands started and the refusal to integrate and assimilate.

So, you only have yourselves to blame Mr. Erdogan.

French Journalist Castigated For Claiming Muslims Don't Assimilate

No stranger to controversy, Eric Zemmour, a French journalist, has been blasted for simply stating a truth: that the "Muslims kept to themselves in the suburbs" and as a result the "French were forced to move out." This has been happening everywhere in Europe where Muslim immigrants congregate. They make it virtually impossible for non-Muslims to live there. This is not racism, this is not Islamophobia, this their choice, it's something they've brought upon themselves by choosing not to integrate and assimilate.

As a result of his comments during an interview with the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera, he has become persona non grata.

The iTELE channel said late Friday that Zemmour would not be invited back to a chat show he has been appearing in since 2003 following an outcry over his latest remarks.
Zemmour, who recently published a best-seller titled “The French Suicide,” is no stranger to polemics and has been convicted of inciting racial hatred.

[snip]

Zemmour is a well-known media commentator and columnist for Le Figaro newspaper who prides himself on his outspoken defiance of what he deems politically correct, woolly liberals.

Zemmour’s parents are Jewish Berbers who emigrated from Algeria in the 1950s.

France is home to five million Muslims, the largest population in Europe. It also has the largest Jewish diaspora on the continent.

The SNJ journalists union hailed the “strong decision” taken by the television channel, a position taken by SOS Racisme, an anti-racism watchdog.

Anti-Semitism In Malmö, Sweden- Video with English Subtitles

Anti-Semitism is alive and well in Sweden.

Evelyn is a Jewish woman living in Rosengård, a predominately Muslim neighbourhood in Malmö, Sweden. She talks about her persecution as a Jew living there. She says she has nothing to do with Israel and yet she is a target of Muslim hate.  This worries her since 29 Jews were killed in hate crimes in 2011.  Unfortunately, she doesn't have the money to move.

France's 'Generation Identitaire' Occupy Mosque In Poitier

The French youth are in revolt, fighting to save their country, a country they feel will soon no longer be theirs. Blaming it on multiculturalism gone bad, and the baby boomers who currently run the country who are enabling that to happen, they formed Generation Identitaire.  Back in October about 73 young men and women occupied the site of a future mosque in Poitiers, the city where Charles Martel defeated the marauding invading Muslims centuries ago. They stood on the roof holding a banner demanding a referendum on Muslim immigration and construction of mosques. The 732 on their banner is the year Martel defeated the Muslims.

They insist they are not racist, simply trying to maintain their heritage and their nation from becoming a Sharia-ridden land of Muslim immigrants. They believe assimilation is impossible now, with dangerous 'no-go zones' or Zones Urbaines Sensibles (Sensitive Urban Zones) that have become exclusively Muslim.

But it's not just the youth that are fearful and pissed off, as a recent demonstration against Islamic fascism in Paris proved. French writer Renaud Camus believes France is "being colonized by Muslim immigrants", with the help of the French government and the media.

It's a shame that it's come to this, but I don't blame them. They want to retain their culture and values, and they have every right to.

The French People March Against Islamic Fascism- Video

CBN in Paris reports on a march against Islamic fascism and Shariah law on November 12. Did anyone hear about this? No, because the leftist French media did not bother to report on this because it was considered racist.

With one of the largest Muslim immigrant populations in Europe, the French are  fed up.  The French youth have banned together creating Generation Identitaire, along with their declaration of war.

I know that most in the West would have no problem with Muslims if they would just integrate, but a good majority don't seem very interested in doing that. As radical Muslims push more for their agenda  to become accepted in Western countries (Shariah law, for one), Westerners are going to push back.  It's inevitable. Unfortunately, it could get very ugly.

Maine Mayor Tells Somali Muslims To Assimilate

I was recently in Portland, Maine and was quite surprised to discover that all the housekeeping staff in my motel were Somali Muslims. Though bedecked in their hijabs, most did show some arm skin from the elbow down; I suppose when you're cleaning toilets keeping long sleeves clean would be a chore. I saw a few more scattered throughout the city, so I googled Somalis in Maine and discovered that Lewiston, Maine has a sizable Somali population. They started arriving there about 11 or so years ago, and now number around  6,000. Lewiston's total population is a little under 37,000. That's a little over 15%.  I knew Minnesota had a very large Somali community, but was surprised to find so many in Maine.

Ironically, the day I arrived home I found the following video in my YouTube subscription channel. Lewiston Mayor Bob MacDonald is in the news again for calling upon the Somalis to assimilate.

"If you want to come in here and you want to celebrate your holidays, I don't care, I don't care. Just don't try to insert your culture, which obviously isn't working, into ours, which does."

And he's absolutely right. When we move to countries like Saudi Arabia women are forced to assimilate immediately by being required to wear head scarves and abayas. Their women should be required to do the same thing in the West. No-one is asking them to totally give up their culture, but Lewiston is not in Somalia, and they should at least try to integrate.

Even though the women at the motel weren't very friendly, I still left them a nice tip.

Saudi Arabian Non-Muslims Could Be Deported For Not Respecting Ramadan Fast

I'm of the mind that if you choose to move to another land/culture you need to integrate, and follow the rules of your newly adopted country. This does not happen often in the West. Though some immigrants do make the effort to assimilate, many don't. They tend to congregate in certain areas, and segregate themselves from the rest of the population. They refuse to learn the language and insist on forcing their ways on others. I don't mind cultural, ethnic and religious differences, just don't impose them on me.

That said, the latest official edict out of Saudi Arabia doesn't bother me one bit.

The Interior Ministry has told non-Muslim expats that they better not flaunt food in front of Muslims during Ramadan (which just started, and lasts a month) or they could be fired and/or deported.

The non-Muslim expatriates in this country should respect the sentiments of Muslims by not eating, drinking and smoking in public places, including roads and workplaces,” stated an Interior Ministry statement issued by the Saudi Press Agency, adding that violators will be either deported or sacked.

The ministry said that eating and drinking openly are seen as an embarrassment to Muslims, as abstaining from food and drinks from sunrise till sunset are one of the visible features of Ramadan that must be respected.

“Being a non-believer of Islam does not exempt an expatriate from being inconsiderate of the feelings of Muslims and the Islamic symbols of this country.”


They aren't forcing non-Muslims to honor the fast, just not to pig out in public. Fair enough, you live in a Muslim country, you follow their rules. And come August 18, they can start eating in public again.

Too bad so many Muslims don't "respect the sentiments" of non-Muslims in the West. Maybe we should threaten to deport Muslims (and others) who refuse to follow our rules.
