From Elsewhere: Christmas under the threat of Jihad.

Some of the latest crop of 'Diversity Barriers' that have been erected in the City of Bath (picture from Bath Chronicle)

 

Many people have noticed that the ideology of Islam and its various and often unpleasant manifestations, is degrading the lives of the citizens of European nations. We have suffered terrorism, crime, political corruption, a rash of sexual offences, misogyny, religious intolerance and much else because of the presence of organised Islam in Europe. There is little that is more illustrative of the restrictions that are increasingly being placed on European citizens in order to protect us from this savagery called Islam than the building of anti terror barriers around Christmas celebrations.

One writer who has noticed this growth of a requirement for extreme security to protect Christmas celebrations is Michael Brendan Dougherty of the American Thinker magazine. In a piece for American Thinker Mr Dougherty wrote about the sad need for protection from Islamic terror in the modern world.

Mr Dougherty said:

Since last Christmas, European cities have gone on a building spree of barriers around parks, promenades, and other public spaces. One city whose leaders had decided against concrete barriers in its pedestrian spaces was Barcelona. Then this summer thirteen people were run down by a truck in that city’s famous Las Ramblas. The attackers originally intended to deliver a bomb to Gaudi’s great cathedral on the opposite end. Seeing that, how could a mayor or other politician be against the barriers once they are proposed? The Spectator’s Ed West acidly calls them “diversity bollards.”

Western European Christmas markets have been particularly disfigured by this trend. After the gruesome attack on one in Berlin last year, Germany has rung in season’s greetings by promising a “Ring of Steel” around Christmas markets this year. Sometimes they make a point of trying to make the new barriers unthreatening. In Bochum, the bollards themselves have been wrapped up like Christmas presents. A gift from the city!

Later, Mr Dougherty added:

In these places a menacing look is preferred. For people of a certain age, unarmed police were the norm in most Western European cities. But things change. Police in Liverpool have unwrapped Operation Exemplar, a “new, highly visible tactic used to tackle all forms of criminality, including terrorism, whilst engaging with the public to encourage them to report suspicious activity.” Liverpudlian police officers are being put in highly conspicuous spots, decked out in black from head to toe, and outfitted with machine guns, as if in preparation for full-blown urban warfare. Merry Christmas, sir, we’re here for your protection.

The nations of Europe, especially those of Western Europe, are facing a horrific and ongoing threat of Islamic violence because of the bad decisions made by politicians. These politicians allowed Islam to establish itself in Europe naively thinking that Islamic culture and Western culture can be integrated and reconciled. The violence we are seeing, the crime we are seeing, the mass rapes and destruction we are seeing that are being carried out by the followers of Islam, are the result of bad choices by those who rule us. We urgently need better rulers before the problems caused by Islam become insurmountable and Christians will no longer be allowed to openly celebrate their festivals whether behind concrete barriers or not.

    Off-topic, but why are the armed police dressed like terrorists ? When I see a masked figure dressed in black and clutching a machine-gun, I don’t think “British policeman, here for my benefit.” I think, “ISIS ? IRA ? Antifa? probably some sort of terrorist, and definitely not somebody who means me any good.”
    The eagerness of the authorities to send what looks like para-military forces onto the streets, indicates how they really want to repress our rights, not defend them.
