Belgium - Right wing 'Vlaams Belang' MP Dewinter calls Quran in parliament 'source of all evil' (HLN).[GoogleTranslate]

Vlaams Belang MP Filip Dewinter got today almost the entire room over him after he showed a Koran in the hemisphere and called the book "the source of all evil, a 'license to kill' '

Dewinter posed a question to Interior Minister Jambon (N-VA) on tackling radicalization in the mosques. On the podium, he took over a Koran and called the book "The reason a lot of mischief, the source of all evil, a license to kill." "This book, based on Islamic teachings, is in a fundamental way professed in many mosques in the country."

Dewinter has its own admission aware "that many temperate are Muslims, but that does not mean that there is a moderate Islam and the Koran, therefore, would be moderate." Jambon Minister was unhappy about the action of Dewinter.

"You're here to swing with a book is a book where they have a lot of respect for and even sacred to many people. You are chasing here a community against you in the harness. We all know that the radical elements in there Muslim community, and we all want to fight. But for the line that you create between Islam and justice in our community, you will find no allies. "

Jambon after got his answer applause from almost all parties in the Chamber. More substantive Jambon made ​​a distinction between authorized and unauthorized mosques. 

The recognition is done by the provinces, so under a different policy, and if there is trouble around the unrecognized mosques, it is the job of the mayor to act. Dewinter responded that "the man in the street "another judgment has about Islam than" those who sit in their ivory tower in the Rue de la Loi ".

Video - Belgian Rally Calls for 'Slaughter' of Jews, Anti-Semitic Hatred broadcast in Antwerp.


Belgian Rally Calls for 'Slaughter' of Jews, Anti-Semitic Hatred broadcast in Antwerp. HT: Forward.
Dozens of men at an anti-Israel demonstration in Antwerp shouted slogans about slaughtering Jews.
Approximately 500 people attended Saturday’s protest in the capital of Belgium’s Flemish region, where one of the speakers used a loudspeaker to chant a call in Arabic that means “slaughter the Jews.”

The demonstration against Israel’s assault on Hamas in Gaza happened amid a wave of anti-Semitic attacks in Western Europe that coincided with the Israeli actions, and one day before a similar demonstration in Paris escalated into what European Jewish Congress President Moshe Kantor called an “attempted lynch” outside a local synagogue.

The Belgian League Against Anti-Semitism filed a complaint for incitement to violence against participants and organizers of the Antwerp demonstration, dozens of whom were recorded making the calls.

“International politics cannot serve as a pretext for incitement to anti-Semitic hatred,” the organization’s president, Joel Rubinfeld, said in a statement.

It also condemned the presence at the demonstration of three local politicians: Karim Bachar of the Flemish Socialist Party; Ikrame Kastit of the Flemish Green Party; and Mohamed Chebaa of Labor.

The protesters also called out “Jews, remember Khaybar, the army of Muhammad is returning,” referencing a seventh-century slaughter against Jews in Saudi Arabia.

Earlier this month, the same call was heard at a demonstration in The Hague in favor of the ISIS Sunni militia in Syria and Iraq. The protest was held six days before Israel launched its military operation in Gaza.

The Simon Wiesenthal Center in a letter to Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte protested that the demonstration was allowed to take place.

“Unless Jihadism in your country is totally quashed, Dutch returnees from their Syrian baptism of fire and Jihadist websites at home will menace Jewish, Muslim and all other citizens of the Netherlands,” wrote Shimon Samuels, the center’s international relations director.

In Paris, approximately 200 Jews were besieged on Sunday inside the synagogue by dozens of young men who confronted police and Jewish guards outside in what turned into a street brawl before police reinforcements dispersed the crowd.

The CRIF umbrella group of Jewish organizations and communities appealed to French President Francois Hollande to temporarily ban “pro-Hamas protests” for fear they would escalate into similar attacks.


On the pro-Palestine Rally Saturday in Borgerhout chanted hundreds of attendees in the Arab anti-Jewish slogans with references to massacres and expulsion of Jews ( see the video here from minute 6:50 ).Notice the Turkish and Palestinian flags in the Crowd!

"This has nothing to do with peaceful protest against Israel, nor a pro-Palestinian stance," says editor of Jewish News, Michael Freilich in the next reaction.

I therefore ask that the mayor of Antwerp, a police investigation, and recommends that the leaders of these racist slogans are arrested. We can not import the conflict in our country, we can not do that with the Syrian conflict, even though there were not 160 but 160 000 deaths.

I earnestly recommends that the councilors of Green, SP.a and WPB present + to distance themselves from at least this infamous part of the event.

Two months after the attack on the Jewish Museum of Belgium can not be anti-Semitic hate slogans against the Jewish community are heard in broad daylight in Antwerp. Again, the Jewish community here is separate from the conflict in the Middle East, and we need to import them to go in our streets. "
