| Operation Gaddafi | |
| By: 90sRetroFan Date: July 27, 2020, 12:33 am | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| OLD CONTENT | |
| https://i.pinimg.com/originals/75/b9/06/75b906ce999e7c27f79cb66489551fd7.jpg | |
| It is our duty to turn Colonel Gaddafi's dream into reality: | |
| "We have 50 million Muslims in Europe. There are signs that | |
| Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe, without swords, | |
| without guns, without military conquest. The 50 million in | |
| Europe will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few | |
| decades. Allah mobilises the Muslim nation of Turkey and adds it | |
| to the European Union. That's another 50 million Muslims. There | |
| will be 100 million Muslims in Europe. Albania, which is a | |
| Muslim country has already entered the EU. Bosnia which is a | |
| Muslim country has already entered the EU. Fifty per cent of its | |
| citizens are Muslims." - Muammar Gaddafi | |
| not least because it would be Israel's worst nightmare: | |
| https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61JumLk1UYL.jpg | |
| Unfortunately, we must first admit that Gaddafi made it sound | |
| far too easy. Firstly, the Muslim demographic in the EU is in | |
| reality nowhere near what Gaddafi optimistically estimated: | |
| www.pewforum.org/2017/11/29/europes-growing-muslim-population/ | |
| [quote]The baseline for all three scenarios is the Muslim | |
| population in Europe (defined here as the 28 countries presently | |
| in the European Union, plus Norway and Switzerland) as of | |
| mid-2016, estimated at 25.8 million (4.9% of the overall | |
| population) � up from 19.5 million (3.8%) in 2010. | |
| Even if all migration into Europe were to immediately and | |
| permanently stop � a �zero migration� scenario � the Muslim | |
| population of Europe still would be expected to rise from the | |
| current level of 4.9% to 7.4% by the year 2050. This is because | |
| Muslims are younger (by 13 years, on average) and have higher | |
| fertility (one child more per woman, on average) than other | |
| Europeans, mirroring a global pattern. | |
| A second, �medium� migration scenario assumes that all refugee | |
| flows will stop as of mid-2016 but that recent levels of | |
| �regular� migration to Europe will continue (i.e., migration of | |
| those who come for reasons other than seeking asylum; see note | |
| on terms below). Under these conditions, Muslims could reach | |
| 11.2% of Europe�s population in 2050. | |
| Finally, a �high� migration scenario projects the record flow of | |
| refugees into Europe between 2014 and 2016 to continue | |
| indefinitely into the future with the same religious composition | |
| (i.e., mostly made up of Muslims) in addition to the typical | |
| annual flow of regular migrants. In this scenario, Muslims could | |
| make up 14% of Europe�s population by 2050 � nearly triple the | |
| current share, but still considerably smaller than the | |
| populations of both Christians and people with no religion in | |
| Europe. | |
| The refugee flows of the last few years, however, are extremely | |
| high compared with the historical average in recent decades, and | |
| already have begun to decline as the European Union and many of | |
| its member states have made policy changes aimed at limiting | |
| refugee flows (see sidebar). | |
| Predicting future migration levels is impossible, because | |
| migration rates are connected not only to political and economic | |
| conditions outside of Europe, but also to the changing economic | |
| situation and government policies within Europe. Although none | |
| of these scenarios will play out exactly as projected, each | |
| provides a set of rough parameters from which to imagine other | |
| possible outcomes. For example, if regular migration continues | |
| at recent levels, and some asylum seekers also continue to | |
| arrive and receive refugee status � but not as many as during | |
| the historically exceptional surge of refugees from 2014 to 2016 | |
| � then the share of Muslims in Europe�s population as of 2050 | |
| would be expected to be somewhere between 11.2% and 14%.[/quote] | |
| In other words, we must campaign for sustained immigration | |
| levels far exceeding even the "high" scenario in the analysis | |
| above if we are to have any chance of reaching Gaddafi's target. | |
| Secondly, Turkey is no closer today to joining the EU than when | |
| Gaddafi made his speech, and if anything is now more remote: | |
| en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accession_of_Turkey_to_the_European_Union | |
| [quote]Negotiations for full membership were started on 3 | |
| October 2005.[5] Progress was slow, and out of the 35 Chapters | |
| necessary to complete the accession process only 16 had been | |
| opened and one had been closed by May 2016.[6] The early 2016 | |
| refugee deal between Turkey and the European Union was intended | |
| to accelerate negotiations after previous stagnation and allow | |
| visa-free travel through Europe for Turks.[7] | |
| Since 2016 accession negotiations have stalled.[8] The EU has | |
| accused and criticized Turkey for human rights violations and | |
| deficits in rule of law.[9] In 2017, EU officials expressed that | |
| planned Turkish policies violate the Copenhagen criteria of | |
| eligibility for an EU membership.[10] On 26 June 2018, the EU's | |
| General Affairs Council stated that "the Council notes that | |
| Turkey has been moving further away from the European Union. | |
| Turkey�s accession negotiations have therefore effectively come | |
| to a standstill and no further chapters can be considered for | |
| opening or closing and no further work towards the modernisation | |
| of the EU-Turkey Customs Union is foreseen."[11][12][/quote] | |
| Therefore we must campaign more strongly for this. | |
| Thirdly, enough EU countries (e.g. V4) have by now (following | |
| the Zionist script) become sufficiently Islamophobic that the | |
| peaceful victory that Gaddafi dreamed of is exceedingly unlikely | |
| to occur. Instead, the Islamophobes will not hesitate to | |
| initiate violence against Muslims; even now they are planning to | |
| emulate the massacre of Muslims carried out by the Serbs in the | |
| 1990s: | |
| en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serbia_in_the_Yugoslav_Wars#War_crimes | |
| (please click on the link and study in detail) | |
| [quote]Numerous war crimes were committed by Serbian military | |
| and Serbian paramilitary forces during the Yugoslav Wars. The | |
| crimes included massacres, ethnic cleansing, systematic rape, | |
| crimes against humanity and genocide. | |
| ... | |
| Rebel Croatian Serbs' forces together with Serbian military and | |
| paramilitary forces[6] committed numerous war crimes and | |
| massacres in Republic of Croatia: | |
| Baćin massacre | |
| Bru�ka massacre | |
| Dalj massacre | |
| Erdut massacre | |
| Lovas massacre | |
| Saborsko massacre | |
| �iroka Kula massacre | |
| �kabrnja massacre | |
| Voćin massacre | |
| Vukovar massacre | |
| ... | |
| Serbian paramilitary forces and Army of the Republika Srpska | |
| committed numerous war crimes against Bosnian civilian | |
| population during the Bosnian War: | |
| Ahatovići massacre | |
| Bijeljina massacre | |
| Doboj massacre | |
| Foča massacres | |
| Korićani Cliffs massacre | |
| Prijedor massacre | |
| Vi�egrad massacre | |
| Tuzla Massacre | |
| Paklenik Massacre | |
| Markale massacres | |
| Srebrenica massacre | |
| 12 April 1993 Srebrenica shelling | |
| Zvornik massacre | |
| Siege of Bihać | |
| Siege of Gora�de | |
| Siege of Sarajevo | |
| ... | |
| In the spring of 1999, the Serbian police and the Yugoslav Army | |
| were "in an organized manner, with significant use of state | |
| resources" conducted a broad campaign of violence against | |
| Albanian civilians in order to expel them from Kosovo and thus | |
| maintain political control of Belgrade over the province.[27] | |
| ... | |
| The following is an incomplete list of massacres attributed to | |
| Serb forces: | |
| Suva Reka massacre � 48 Albanian civilians victims, including 14 | |
| children, two infants, a pregnant woman and a 100-year-old | |
| woman.[45] | |
| Račak massacre � 45 Albanians villagers.[46] | |
| Podujevo massacre - 19 Albanian civilians.[47] | |
| Massacre at Velika Kru�a � according to the Court, Serbian | |
| special police units murdered 42 persons.[48][49] | |
| Izbica massacre � approximately 120 Albanian civilians.[50] | |
| Drenica massacre � 29 bodies found.[51] | |
| Gornje Obrinje massacre - 18 bodies found in Kosovo,[52] in | |
| addition to an unspecified number of other fatalities.[53] | |
| Cuska massacre � 41 known victims.[54] | |
| Bela Crkva massacre � 62 known victims.[55] | |
| Orahovac massacre � between 50 and 200+ ethnic Albanian | |
| civilians.[56] | |
| Dubrava Prison massacre � Serbian prison guards killed more than | |
| 70 Albanian prisoners.[57] | |
| Ću�ka massacre near Peć on 14 May 1999 attributed to | |
| the �akali[citation needed] | |
| Vučitrn massacre near Vucitrn on 2 May 1999. Between 97 and | |
| 105 Albanians were killed.[/quote] | |
| And of course: | |
| en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Srebrenica_massacre | |
| [quote]On 8 July 2015, Russia, at the request of the Republika | |
| Srpska and Serbia, vetoed a UN resolution condemning the | |
| Srebrenica massacre as genocide. Serbia called the resolution | |
| "anti-Serb"[/quote] | |
| Therefore, as much as we would prefer peaceful victory, we must | |
| prepare for the possibility of civil war, which means | |
| stockpiling firearms/ammo and doing paramilitary training. (With | |
| this said, we should of course still aim for peaceful victory in | |
| EU countries where Islamophobia is comparatively less rampant.) | |
| It is vital that in the unfortunate event that civil war does | |
| break out, the sides are not portrayed as Muslims vs non-Muslims | |
| (whereupon unaligned non-Muslims are likely to join in the | |
| attacks on Muslim communities), but instead portrayed as | |
| Islamophobes vs non-Islamophobes (which gives us a much better | |
| position from which to recruit the unaligned). In other words, | |
| our side must consist significantly and visibly of | |
| anti-Islamophobic non-Muslims volunteering to defend Muslim | |
| communities, as well as the Muslim communities themselves, long | |
| before any combat even begins. | |

| Dugin's chaos strategy of spreading Islamophobia in the West by | |
| backing Trump, LePen, Brexit, is empowering Islamophobes. To | |
| make matters worse, such parties are being promoted by the | |
| Zionist controlled media as "populist", and thus are rapidly | |
| gaining influence. Meanwhile, non-racist, non-Islamophobic | |
| populists like Corbyn are losing their influence due to the | |
| False Left Zionist agents who secretly favor rightists and are | |
| trying to mix their brand of "populism" with Corbyn's. | |

| [quote]Antwerp will soon be �lost� to the hope of any future | |
| conservative government, local media said as data showed only a | |
| quarter of the city�s young children are Belgian natives, and | |
| studies revealed migrant background voters overwhelmingly | |
| supporting left-wing parties. | |
| That�s it � Antwerp now has more non-natives than natives,� | |
| claimed a headline in French-language news weekly, L�Express, | |
| over new figures which revealed that 53.2 per cent of residents | |
| in the city � Belgium�s most populous � are now of immigrant | |
| origin. | |
| ... | |
| With the proportion of non-Belgians in the city having grown | |
| from 46 per cent in 2014, L�Express notes that the major | |
| demographic shift �obviously has consequences� for politics in | |
| Antwerp, which has been led since 2013 by Mayor Bart De Wever, | |
| who heads the conservative New Flemish Alliance (N-VA) party. | |
| To illustrate this, the magazine pointed to a University of | |
| Antwerp study which found that almost 90 per cent of the city�s | |
| voters with Moroccan or Turkish origins voted at last October�s | |
| elections for left-wing parties, with 31 per cent opting for the | |
| extreme left Workers� Party of Belgium (PVDA). | |
| ... | |
| �It is only voters aged 40 to 50 and above who are voting for | |
| the right [N-VA] and far-right [populist Flemish Interest (VB)] | |
| in Antwerp,� said Hertogen, asserting that the figures | |
| �illustrate painfully how De Wever appeals explicitly to | |
| remnants of the far-right, and the historic frustration of old | |
| Belgians�. | |
| �De Wever is mayor of a city now already lost� to conservative | |
| politics, with demographic change making a future N-VA victory | |
| almost unthinkable, he remarked, pointing to figures which | |
| showed that � already in 2015 � 72 per cent of the city�s | |
| children aged six and under had a migrant background.[/quote] | |
| Good, but not yet good enough. It is unwise to concentrate in | |
| urban areas; we need our influence spreading to rural areas | |
| also. | |

| [quote]Turkey's membership to the EU would contribute greatly to | |
| both sides, the UK's ambassador to Ankara said on Friday. | |
| In an exclusive interview with Anadolu Agency, Dominick Chilcott | |
| said, "Turkey's accession process and the membership process is | |
| stalled at the moment. It's not going anywhere, and for now it's | |
| hard to be optimistic. | |
| However, evaluating Ankara's decades-long negotiations with the | |
| 28-member bloc, Chilcott said conditions could change rapidly at | |
| any time. | |
| He stressed that the current lack of progress had nothing to do | |
| with Turkey's culture, size or geographical position. | |
| "In principle, there is no reason why Turkey should not become a | |
| member state. It would be a very successful state of the EU, | |
| make a big contribution and benefit hugely from EU membership," | |
| he said. | |
| ... | |
| "With 3.6 million Syrian refugees and half a million refugees | |
| from other countries Turkey carries a huge burden," said | |
| Chilcott. | |
| "Everybody in the international community should be grateful for | |
| all the efforts Turkey makes," he said. | |
| Chilcott underlined that the EU's current contributions were | |
| only a "small part of the cost Turkey already bears."[/quote] | |
| I agree with the above analysis. Unfortunately: | |

| with Turkey, which have been suspended, should be canceled. | |
| Salvini said that he believes Turkey would be an Islamic | |
| influence in Europe and that the country is too different | |
| culturally. Salvini also pledged that they will cancel the | |
| accession process of Turkey to the EU if the new group wins a | |
| majority in the European Parliament. "The EU chooses to pursue | |
| sanctions against Hungary and Poland while giving billions [of | |
| euros] to Turkey. The path to accession should not be suspended, | |
| but instead definitively cancelled," Salvini said.[/quote] | |

| need to punish Italy, even though Italy is what stands in the | |

| [quote]Turkey currently hosts an estimated 3.5 million migrants | |
| and refugees � mainly Syrians, Iraqis and Afghans. Many of these | |
| people presumably would migrate to Europe if given the | |
| opportunity to do so. | |
| ... | |
| Turkish officials have repeatedly accused the EU of failing to | |
| keep its end of the bargain, especially with respect to visa | |
| liberalization and accession to the EU. | |
| Under the agreement, European officials promised to fast-track | |
| visa-free access for Turkish nationals to the Schengen | |
| (open-bordered) passport-free zone by June 30, 2016 and to | |
| restart Turkey's stalled EU membership talks by the end of July | |
| 2016. | |
| ... | |
| Turkey was first promised EU membership in September 1963, when | |
| it signed an "Association Agreement" aimed at establishing a | |
| customs union to pave the way for eventual accession to the EU. | |
| Turkey formally applied for EU membership in April 1987 and | |
| membership talks began in October 2005. | |
| Turkey's EU accession talks stalled in December 2006 after the | |
| Turkish government refused to open Turkish ports and airports to | |
| trade from Cyprus. Since then, talks have continued on and off, | |
| but the process has been stalled due to political opposition | |
| from France and Germany, among others. | |
| If Turkey were to join the EU, it would overtake Germany to | |
| become the EU's largest member in terms of population. | |
| Consequently, the EU's largest member state would be Muslim. | |
| Some European officials have warned that Turkish accession would | |
| cause Europe to "implode" and be "Islamized." | |
| Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy has said that Turkey has | |
| no place in the EU. In a February 2016 interview with the French | |
| news channel iT�l�, he expressed sentiments that presumably are | |
| shared by many Europeans: | |
| "Turkey has no place in Europe. I have always adhered to this | |
| position, it is based on common sense. This doesn't mean that I | |
| have anything against the Turks. We need them, they are our | |
| allies in NATO. But if we begin to explain it � that Turkey is | |
| in Europe � European school students will have to be told that | |
| the European border lies in Syria. Where's common sense? | |
| "It's not just that. What's the idea behind Europe? Europe is a | |
| union of European countries. The question is very simple, even | |
| in a geographical sense, is Turkey a European country? Turkey | |
| has only one shore of the Bosporus in Europe. Can Turkey be | |
| regarded a European country culturally, historically, and | |
| economically speaking? If we say that, we want the European | |
| Union's death."[/quote] | |

| different when it comes to younger citizens: the younger the | |
| bracket, the fewer are baptised. | |
| While 79 per cent of middle-aged citizens (35-49 years old) were | |
| baptised in 2012, the proportion fell to 70 per cent among the | |
| young adults (25-34) and to 65 per cent among the very young | |
| adults (18-25). Moreover, only 58 per cent of the baptised | |
| French were considering baptising their own children, and an | |
| even lower proportion actually did it. Among the children aged 0 | |
| to 7, "48.8 out of 100 were baptised in 1999, 40 out of 100 | |
| baptised in 2005, 34 in 2010, and 30 in 2015."[/quote] | |

| [quote]Census figures based on origin, religion or ethnicity are | |
| banned or restricted in France by law. As a result, very low and | |
| unrealistic demographic estimations of French Islam have been | |
| circulated for decades. As of today, many academics and some | |
| government agencies still routinely contend that the Muslim | |
| population does not exceed 6 to 8 per cent of the general | |
| population in Metropolitan France (the overseas counties not | |
| included), that is to say 3.9 to 5.2 million out of 65 million. | |
| According to Fourquet, these numbers do not fit squarely with | |
| other data, such as the very high proportion of Muslim first | |
| names among French children born in 2016: 18.8 per cent | |
| nationwide, 25 to 35 or 40 per cent in highly urbanised counties | |
| in Greater Paris, Greater Lyons, the Mediterranean area, Eastern | |
| France, Northern France.[/quote] | |
| 18.8% is a good start, but not enough. | |
| [quote]One reason why French Islam has been demographically | |
| underestimated is that surveys, when conducted, have focused on | |
| first generation immigrants from Muslim countries, rather than | |
| on second generation as well or on converts. True enough, the | |
| French showed in the past a remarkable ability to absorb and | |
| assimilate many immigrant communities, including non-Christian | |
| or non-European groups. But this pattern does not seem to be | |
| working when it comes to Muslims. | |
| ... | |
| 71 per cent of all Muslims fast nowadays on Ramadan, against 60 | |
| per cent in the 1990s; only 22 per cent of all Muslims admit | |
| drinking alcohol in 2016, against 39 per cent in the 1990s; 35 | |
| per cent of all Muslim women wear the hijab, against 24 per cent | |
| in 2003. | |
| ... | |
| According to Fourquet, there is an even deeper "anthropological" | |
| divide between the non-Muslim majority and a rapidly growing | |
| Muslim minority: the emphasis on female premarital virginity. | |
| While premarital "purity" is seen as "important" by only 8 per | |
| cent of the French nationwide and only 23 per cent of practicing | |
| Catholics, it is described as required by 67 per cent of the | |
| citizens who claim a "Muslim cultural heritage" and by 74 per | |
| cent of strictly religious Muslims.[/quote] | |

| [quote]Describing Italy, Gerard Baker, former editor in chief of | |
| the Wall Street Journal, recently wrote: | |
| "In much of the country... depopulation is advancing. Moving | |
| into the empty spaces have been waves of immigrants, many from | |
| North Africa and the Middle East. The migrants have filled vital | |
| gaps in the labor force, but the transformation of Italian towns | |
| has left increasing numbers of citizens resentful, fearful for | |
| their identity." | |
| He went on to call this transformation, "a kind of pioneer of | |
| Western decline". Already, the effects of mass migration are | |
| becoming dramatically visible in many of Italy's elementary | |
| schools. In just the last few days, examples from two large | |
| cities have surfaced. | |
| The first was in Turin, Italy's fourth largest city, where there | |
| are now elementary school classes with not even one Italian | |
| child[/quote] | |
| This was also the case in Riace under Mayor Lucano, and it was | |
| wonderful: | |
| www.planet360.info/en/the-riace-format/ | |
| until Salvini ruined everything. | |
| Back to the original article: | |
| [quote]There are many voices of concern. Cardinal Robert Sarah, | |
| author of a new book, The Day Is Now Far Spent, about the crisis | |
| of the West, compares the current influx of migrants to the | |
| invasions of barbarians that brought down the Roman Empire. If | |
| Europe's policies toward migrants do not change, Sarah warns, | |
| Europe will be "invaded by foreigners, just as Rome was invaded | |
| by barbarians."[/quote] | |
| This analogy is the wrong way round. The barbarians who brought | |
| down the Roman Empire were from the north, and included groups | |
| such as the Huns (ancestors of present-day Hungarians whose | |
| cruel attitudes towards refugees present-day Italian have sadly | |
| adopted). Operation Gaddafi (involving migration largely from | |
| former Roman territories!), in contrast, would eventually | |
| restore something more similar to the Roman Empire, which was | |
| known for its integrationist attitude, as I previously | |
| explained: | |

| [quote]we consider Islam to be the statist successor to the | |
| Roman Empire, and hence as statists side with both ... On the | |
| other hand, those who complain about the historical Islamic rule | |
| in Europe should on the same grounds complain about the | |
| historical Roman rule in Europe also, but they don�t, because | |
| they have double-standards.[/quote] | |
| Back to the original article: | |
| "If Europe disappears, and with it the priceless values of the | |
| Old Continent, Islam will invade the world and we will | |
| completely change our culture, anthropology and moral vision". | |
| An Italian think-tank, Fondazione Fare Futuro, also just | |
| predicted that due to mass migration and the different | |
| birthrates of Christians and Muslims, by the end of the century | |
| half of the population of Italy could be Muslim. In just ten | |
| years, the number of migrants in Italy has surged by 419%. | |
| ... | |
| Immigration is once again becoming a political question. Just | |
| weeks after forming a government with the Five Star Movement, | |
| the Democratic Party is advancing the so-called "birthright | |
| citizenship" -- a pledge to reverse the stringent migration | |
| policy of former Interior Minister Matteo Salvini. In Latin this | |
| right to citizenship is called ius culturae. The new law would | |
| allow foreign minors under the age of 12 to become citizens | |
| after just five years at school in Italy. The bill is being | |
| advanced by Laura Boldrini, a former president of Italy's | |
| Parliament, who famously said: "The lifestyle of the migrants | |
| will be ours". Will Italians, as in those elementary schools, | |
| integrate into the new culture of the migrants? | |
| Boldrini thinks like a Roman: | |

| [quote]In Virgil�s Aeneid, and also according to Livy,[4] the | |
| Rutuli are led by Turnus, a young prince to whom Latinus, king | |
| of the Latins, had promised the hand of his daughter Lavinia in | |
| marriage. When the Trojans arrived in Italy, Latinus [Note: | |
| great-grandson of Saturn, by no coincidence] decided to give his | |
| daughter to Aeneas because of instructions he had received from | |
| the gods to marry his daughter to a foreigner. Turnus was | |

| It comes after the prime minister was accused of �Islamophobia | |
| and racism� following a number of controversial comments he made | |
| in the past, including his remarks in a 2005 Spectator article | |
| in which he claimed it was only �natural� for the public to be | |

| ... | |

| former soldiers and white working class English people. | |
| �But I�m scared for my personal safety, I worry about my | |

| Mr Ali went on to accuse the prime minister of �Islamophobia and | |
| racism� because of his past remarks and �failure to root out | |
| Islamophobia in his party�. | |
| He added that Britain was his home and he didn�t know where else | |
| to go, but his family are in agreement that they should move to | |

| [quote]�the Islamization of minds,� in particular among of the | |

| remains a minority, its importance is indeed growing and | |
| especially is becoming visible. Islamization is visible in | |
| several ways: in beliefs, behaviors, religious practice, and | |
| political life. | |
| A Shiite political party named �ISLAM� was formed in 2012. It | |
| calls for the imposition of Islam�s strictest teachings: no | |
| shaking of hands between men and women, banning of mixed-sex | |
| schools and public transport, the wearing of the headscarf from | |

| �anything but ridiculous,� as noted by a journalist in the | |
| magazine Le Vif [breaking the 4% threshold in the notorious | |
| Brussels neighborhood of Molenbeek, for instance] and the strict | |
| conception of Islam is progressing in Belgium. | |
| According to a 2017 study by a Belgian foundation, 33% of | |

| way of life� (women�s autonomy, alcohol, eroticism, etc), | |
| whereas 29% consider that �the laws of Islam are superior to | |

| Europeans, mirroring a global pattern. | |

| ry | |
| [quote]Pope Francis has praised this little Balkan nation for | |
| its notable religious tolerance, saying it should serve as an | |
| example for the world. | |
| Although this was the first time I�d met Hasib Buba, I had | |
| already heard his voice a number of times echoing through the | |
| winding streets and alleyways of Berat, a small city in | |
| south-central Albania. | |
| With neatly parted dark hair, a well-maintained beard and a | |
| slim-fitting button down, the 25-year-old religious leader | |
| explained that as muezzin, one of his duties is to deliver the | |
| adhan, the Islamic call to prayer broadcasted from the | |
| spire-like minaret, five times each day. | |
| The Islamic call to prayer is broadcast five times a day through | |
| the streets of Berat | |
| He�s the very picture of a devout Muslim � but I was surprised | |
| to learn that this had not always been the case. | |
| �I was actually raised Christian,� Buba explained, �and for | |
| years I followed that path. When I was older, I got into a | |
| debate with one of my friends, who was Muslim. The debate went | |
| on for months, and in order to be better prepared for our | |
| discussions, I started reading about Islam; I learned everything | |
| I could about it.� | |
| �In the end, I won the debate, but the process led me to ask | |
| questions about my own beliefs. The answers provided by Islam | |
| made more sense to me, so I converted,� he said. | |
| Though the choice to convert may seem a surprising one to many, | |
| the reality is that Albania has long been regarded as a place of | |
| religious tolerance and harmony. | |
| The predominant religions are Islam and Christianity, with | |
| Muslims making up more than half the population. Still, there | |
| remains a common unity between the people of the country. | |
| Churches and mosques often occupy the same streets, and | |
| interfaith marriages are widely accepted within the culture. | |
| Berat is especially noteworthy, as its Onufri Museum holds the | |
| Ikona Burimi Jet�dh�n�s (Icon of the Life Giving Source). This | |
| 18th-century Albanian work of art depicts a Christian scene with | |
| minarets rising in the background and is lauded as a symbol of | |
| the country's famous religious harmony. | |
| It is not unusual to see churches and mosques on the same | |
| streets in Albania. | |
| In a 2014 visit, Pope Francis, the head of the Catholic Church, | |
| praised the Balkan nation for its notable religious tolerance, | |
| saying it should serve as an example for the world. During his | |
| speech in Tirana, Pope Francis praised the �peaceful | |
| coexistence� of religions in the country, adding, �this is | |
| especially the case in these times where an authentic religious | |
| spirit is being perverted by extremist groups, and where | |
| religious differences are being distorted.� | |
| Curious to know how Albania's population had remained unified, I | |
| asked Buba for his take on the subject. | |
| �Albania has always had some type of acceptance of others. If | |
| you look throughout the country�s history, you see harmony in | |
| every century. Even during the Ottoman Empire. Many people | |
| attribute it to communism, but I don�t believe that. If you look | |
| at the history before, it just doesn�t make sense.� | |
| In 2014, Pope Francis praised the country for its religious | |
| tolerance. | |
| Buba is referring to the period between 1944 and 1992 when | |
| Albania was under a strict communist regime begun by dictator | |
| Enver Hoxha. Over the course of the regime, Albania became a | |
| complete isolationist state with virtually no ties to the | |
| outside world. In 1967, Hoxha tightened his grip on the country | |
| even further by banning all religion, declaring Albania the | |
| world�s first atheist state. During this time, churches and | |
| mosques were seized by the military and either destroyed or | |
| turned into cinemas or dance halls. Clergy members were stripped | |
| of their titles, shamed and in some cases incarcerated. | |
| Some speculate that this violent ousting of organized religion | |
| resulted in Albanians adopting a secular mindset, and that the | |
| country is void of any religious tension because faith is not an | |
| important element of life for many today. Buba begs to differ, | |
| though, dismissing this as cynical. | |
| To illustrate how religious harmony exists in Albania, he | |
| brought up the recent example of Malbardh, a small village in | |
| northern Albania. A few years ago, the little area made | |
| headlines across the country when the local Muslim population | |
| raised funds and rebuilt the village�s lone Catholic church, | |
| which had been torn down with so many others during Hoxha's | |
| reign. | |
| Practitioners of all religions attend religious events like The | |
| Day of the Blessed Water. | |
| Malbardh is not the only area to have stories like this. | |
| Leskovik, a village near the Greek border, is known for its | |
| communal prayer shrine that was built from the ruins of a mosque | |
| destroyed during WWII. The ruins remained untouched during | |
| communism, but now the shrine, located at the base of the former | |
| minaret, is frequented by Muslims and Christians alike for | |
| prayer. | |
| These tales are especially pertinent today. With fears growing | |
| around extremist groups, it seems that the stake dividing faiths | |
| is only being driven deeper. | |
| �I hear all this talk of people wanting to build walls and ban | |
| believers of certain faiths from entering countries,� Buba said. | |
| �This is only going to breed hate and misunderstanding. The | |
| reason harmony exists in Albania is because we engage with one | |
| another. We debate, we discuss and we educate ourselves about | |
| those around us.� | |
| During my two years in the country, I�d witnessed what Buba | |
| spoke about firsthand. There are numerous Muslim and Christian | |
| religious events in which practitioners of both are in | |
| attendance. The Day of the Blessed Water, for instance, is a | |
| Christian holiday celebrated by participants diving into a river | |
| in search of a cross, but it is open to all and has had many | |
| Muslim winners over the years. Likewise, Buba explained that it | |
| is not uncommon for Christians to participate in feasting during | |
| the Muslim holiday of Eid, which breaks the fast of Ramadan. By | |
| engaging with one another so frequently and in such meaningful | |
| ways, Albanian Muslims and Christians have created a strong | |
| community founded upon understanding and respect. | |
| For Albanians, coexistence and harmony come naturally. | |
| It�s hard to say whether the world will take Buba and Albania�s | |
| example to heart, but there�s something to be said for the | |
| little Balkan state in which children grow up hearing both the | |
| call to prayer and the ringing of church bells from outside | |
| their windows. For them, coexistence and harmony have become as | |
| natural as breathing.[/quote] | |
| What missing from the article: there are no JEWS in Albania to | |
| destructively divide the population. | |
| Also, Albanians were portrayed as gangsters in several movies of | |
| the past decade, most notably the Taken series. One wonders why? | |

| [quote]the French identitarian news aggregator Fdesouche has | |
| charted the dramatic growth of newborns with Islamic first names | |
| from around 2.5% in 1969 to 21.5% in 2019. This figure is | |
| remarkably congruent with our other sources. | |
| ... | |
| The figures for Muslim first names are not perfectly precise | |
| because of the problem of �mixed names� and the growing | |
| percentage of �rare names,� which are difficult to classify and | |
| which Muslims seem to have a predilection for. As such, the real | |
| percentage of Muslim newborns may actually be around 25%. | |
| The figures are also broken down by d�partement (county). As one | |
| would expect, Muslims are concentrated in Greater-Paris, making | |
| up an outright majority of Seine-Saint-Denis (54%).[/quote] | |
| 25% is still far too low. It needs to be increased to well over | |
| 50% ASAP. Yet, as everyone here knows, the last thing I want is | |
| to encourage anyone to reproduce more. So the only ways to | |
| increase the % without additional reproduction are: 1) | |
| encouraging others to reproduce less; 2) facilitating | |
| immigration. | |
