Who are Salafis? What is ‘Salafi’ Islam?

A reader in a comment here asked about who and what Salafi Muslims are. I was reminded of a couple of really revealing clips I had on the now deleted vladtepesblogdotcom youtube channel that specifically exposed Salafi Islam in Europe and elsewhere.

I will re post them as I find them. The best one, was of a Dutch man who actually went undercover and joined a Salafi school in Holland for a year. His interview was really quite amazing. Meanwhile I will post the videos of Salafi as I find them here.

Hizb ut-Tahrir: Demonstration in Amsterdam
“Come and support the Syrian uprising — men and women separately.”
The radical Islamic group Hizb ut-Tahrir organized a demonstration yesterday in Amsterdam to support the protesters in Syria. In an unusual move, the organizers separated male and female demonstrators, in accordance with strict Islamic law.

If there were any doubt that the Salafist groups were involved in the “Arab Spring” uprisings, yesterday’s event would remove them. Hizb ut-Tahrir’s support for the Syrian protesters indicates a substantial Salafist presence among the regime’s opponents.

Our Dutch correspondent Bolleke has compiled a report on what happened yesterday in Amsterdam:

Cultural enrichment news from GOV. Today’s chapter, Holland

The text below copied and pasted from Gates of Vienna verbatim:

Here’s a little snippet of news from the Netherlands that’s worth pondering. The inexorable logic of Western “diversity”, “tolerance”, and “human rights” produces the following sequence of events:

An illegal immigrant — a failed asylum seeker — kills a policeman. After he is convicted of the crime, he cannot be deported, because his nationality is unknown. If the judicial system is lenient and compassionate with him — as is often the case in Europe — he will spend a relatively short time behind bars. When he is released, the entire sequence of events can be repeated indefinitely.

Multicultural ideology demands that culture enrichers be imported en masse in the name of “diversity”. “Tolerance” prevents any effective action against the barbaric behavior the enrichers bring with them. “Human rights” make it all but impossible to return even the most degraded among them whence they came.

This process is yet more evidence that some mysterious form of mass insanity has infected a large portion of the Western populace. What other explanation makes any sense?

It’s not just the “elites” or the ruling oligarchy — millions of voters return the same scoundrels to office over and over again, knowing full well the ideology and policies they will implement. Otherwise normal, well-educated, well-meaning people exhibit a bizarre compulsion to commit collective suicide, because the alternative — being thought of, or seeing themselves as “racist” — is worse than the death of their entire culture.

Utter madness.

Here’s the story from Dutch News:

Groningen Shooter’s Nationality ‘Unknown’

The man who shot dead a police officer and allegedly battered a young woman to death is a failed asylum seeker who cannot be deported because his nationality is unknown, police confirmed on Thursday evening.

The 25-year-old, known as Alasam S, was also known to the police, the Telegraaf reported. He is currently in hospital being treated for bullet wounds after police shot him five times in the leg as he tried to escape.

Local police chief Oscar Dros told a news conference the force had been shocked at the death of the 48-year-old officer who tried to stop Alasam S at the station after an alert had gone out for his arrest. The officer was in plain clothes at the time and was apparently shot with his own gun.

The shooting took place in the Groningen village of Baflo, which has a population of 1,800 and is described as a ‘close knit’ community.

Muslim population in Western Europe rising

IB NEWS… The population of Muslims in Western Europe has been steadily rising in recent decades, largely due to immigration from the Middle East, South Asia and North Africa.

In Southeastern Europe, much of which once formed part of the Ottoman Empire, Muslims have been present for many centuries, but they are a relatively new phenomenon in the western part of the continent.

On the whole, Muslim’s represent about 5 percent of the population of the EU 27.

Far-right politicians in Europe have long warned that the Muslim numbers will continue to grow due to higher birth rates. Marine Le Pen, the head of France’s anti-immigrant National Front party, who openly discusses the rising number Muslims in France, could conceivably win next year’s presidential election, according to polls.

While the percentage of Muslims as part of the overall population of western European nations are in single digits, a 2009 study by the Telegraph newspaper in the UK estimated that by 2050, Muslims will account for 20 percent of the European Union’s populace. Long before that, Britain, Spain and The Netherlands will reach and surpass that figure. Continue Reading →

Netherlands: Gay couple sues city for harrasment by Muslim youths

NIS News:

UTRECHT, 22/03/11 – A gay couple from Utrecht is holding the municipality, the police and central government liable for the financial and emotional damage they suffered as a result of intimidation and violence of Moroccan youths.

The couple have made official police reports to the Utrecht police eight times in the past years. On no single occasion was a suspect arrested. Meanwhile, the two men have moved to another municipality.

The men are holding the municipality, the police and the State liable. They want to force a damages settlement from the three bodies via civil proceedings. In separate proceedings, they also want to compel judges to force the Public Prosecutor’s Office (OM) to prosecute the perpetrators.

Between the summer of 2009 and 2010, the men were continually intimidated. Windows of their house were broken and their car was damaged. Because police there said they could not take action against this, the men eventually found themselves forced to sell their home at way below its estimated value.

THE NETHERLANDS: NAZIS, COMMIES AND ISLAMONAZIS GATHER TO PROTEST ISRAELI ARMY BAND

It’s the convergence of the hard Left that supports the eradication of the Jewish state of Israel, as they turn out in their many flavors to protest an Israeli dance and song group.

The text on the black flag reads: “BrotherHood Drecht-cities”, Drechtsteden is a collections of cities ending on-Drecht. Timo says that they are clearly a Neo-Nazi group.  (pic taken by bij keesjemaduraatje)

According to Timo:

A christian group, Christians for Israel, organized three benefit concerts here in Holland with cooperation of the Israeli army band, Tzahal. Anja Meulenbelt, (pic. left with stinky Arafat) a socialist senator of the SP party, called for a counter protest, together with some pro-Palestinian groups, one of them is called Sabeel (meaning “The Way” in Arabic).

We went to the first demo to see what would happen, there was a second concert yesterday in Groningen, but not much spectacular happened there. In Dordrecht, Sabeel showed up for the protest, some time later a group of neo-Nazi’s showed up as well.

In the video you can hear one group chanting : Israel Schande Schande – Bloed aan je handen,  it means : Israel Shame Shame – Blood on your hands . You obviously here two different tones : meaning both groups singing the same chant, when the neo-Nazis sing the leftists even whistle along!

NOTE: The Tundra Tabloids has been invited to many events like this in Helsinki, but since Finland’s Muslim population is no where near the level in other European states, we don’t have any of the freaks protesting against them. KGS

DUTCH SENATOR CALLS FOR BAN ON SHARIA IN THE NETHERLANDS…….

GEERT WILDERS SEEN CLAPPING IN APPROVAL

Kudos! The pendulum is shifting in the other direction as more lawmakers are seeing the logic of Geert Wilders’ argumentation, who by the way has an excellent op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal that mentions Elisabeth’s case.

Dutch senator’s call for ban on sharia law is enthusiastically welcomed by Wilders

Monday, February 21, 2011

Islamophobiawatch: Christian Union Senator Roel Kuiper wants to amend the Dutch constitution to include a ban on Sharia, Islamic law. Senator Kuiper made his statement in an interview with newspaper Trouw.

The Christian Union politician wants to ban Islamic law because it is “not rooted in principles which form part of Dutch culture. Our rights, the way we treat each other, our norms of good and evil have all been molded by Christianity.”

Mr Kuiper argues that Islamic law is still grounded in retaliation, while the laws of a democratic constitutional state are geared toward forgiveness, correction and reconciliation. “Our laws are not based on ‘an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth’. Our legal system applies the law, but knows reconciliation must follow.” Senator Kuiper also wants to regulate the flow of money from Arab countries to Dutch mosques. The Christian Union politician says these measures are necessary “to take the Islam debate in the Netherlands a step forward”.

Freedom Party leader Geert Wilders has enthusiastically welcomed Senator Kuiper’s proposal. “Sharia is based on the Qur’an. So this means an end to head scarves, halal food, the Qur’an etc.”

NETHERLANDS PARLIAMENT REAFFIRMS THE OBVIOUS: ISRAEL IS A JEWISH STATE

Thanks to the parties that initiated this wonderful resolution and for voting favorably on it. Well done. Also, the decision to nix any move to declare, unilaterally, a Palestinian state, was a wise move as well. Without any move on the Arabs’ part to normalize their society, there is no rush or hurry to grant statehood to them. KGS

Netherlands parliament move affirms Israel as Jewish State

By BENJAMIN WEINTHAL

JPOST: BERLIN – Members of the Dutch parliament reinforced the Jewish character of Israel during a session earlier this month, with a parliamentary decision that termed it a “democratic Jewish state.”

The pro-Israel vote resulted in 113 of the 150 parliament members affirming Israel’s existence as a Jewish, democratic state and urging the EU not to recognize a unilaterally declared Palestinian state.

According to the parliamentary measure, “the unilateral declaration of a Palestinian state will not bring closer a lasting peace, and therefore the Dutch government asks to advance a European (EU) policy that rejects the unilateral declaration of a Palestinian state and means a European call to the Palestinian leaders to resume direct negotiations with Israel.

Furthermore the Palestinians should work toward a lasting solution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that takes into consideration the Palestinian problem and includes the explicit recognition of a democratic Jewish State of Israel.”

The Reformed Political Party, SGP, which is a small Protestant party, initiated the resolution. The measure was co-sponsored by the Christian Democratic Appeal party and the Christian Union, a separate Protestant party. The governing liberal party, VVD, and Geert Wilders’s Party for Freedom supported the resolution.

Surprisingly, the Dutch Labor party (PvdA) also threw its weight behind the vote. Traditionally, the Labor party has vehemently opposed Dutch legislation favoring Israel and seeking to combat radical Islamic terror.

From NISNEWS:

AMSTERDAM, 11/02/11 – An ‘interreligious dialogue march’ in Amsterdam has been marred by anti-Semitic shouting.

Prominent religious leaders walked from the Nour mosque in Amsterdam West to a church and a synagogue on Wednesday. Which synagogue this would be was not announced beforehand to avoid intimidation by Islamic youths.

Among the participants were Kursat Bal of the Muslims and Government Contact Body (CMO), Rabbi Raphael Evers and J. Plaisier of the Protestant Church Netherlands (PKN). In fact, they spoke more with the press than with each other.

Along the route, anti-Jewish slogans regularly sounded from the mouths of Islamic youths. Arriving at the synagogue, Kursat Bal excused himself for them. “These youngsters do not know Jews and they do not know their own Islam.”

The solution that Bal suggested was remarkable. “They would not have shouted these things if they had been going to Islamic schools.”

NIS News Bulletin Minister: Scrapping Ham from Menu Not Islamisation

THE HAGUE, 09/02/11 – Home Affairs Minister Piet Hein Donner has rejected suggestions that the fact the police in Gelderland are not served pigmeat any more is an illustration of Islamisation of Dutch society.

The province’s corps is no longer served any ham rolls, according to local newspaper De Gelderland. This meat is not ‘halal’ for Muslims. Party for Freedom (PVV) MPs Geert Wilders and Hero Brinkman had complained to the minister about this “example of unacceptable Islamisation of the Netherlands.”

According to the Christian democratic (CDA) minister, there is no question of this. In a letter to parliament, he writes that the ‘halal lunch packages’ are only an ‘organisational measure’. Because a number of people “for whatever reasons do not eat pigmeat,’ it was simply easier to scrap ham from the menu.

“Possibly the same could happen if the number of vegetarians increases enormously,” according to the CDA minister. “This would not be evidence of vegetarisation of Dutch society either.”
