“Europe is no longer Europe, it is ‘Eurabia,’ a colony of Islam, where the Islamic invasion does not proceed only in a physical sense, but also in a mental and cultural sense. Servility to the invaders has poisoned democracy, with obvious consequences for the freedom of thought, and for the concept itself of liberty,” is how Oriana Fallaci characterizes what she perceives as the decline of Europe into the grabby and presumably immigrant hands of Muslims encroaching on her continent.

It may be hard to believe that such immoderate and inflammatory rhetoric is in fact a defense of her recent book, The Force of Reason, which in turn is a defense of her previous book, The Rage and the Pride, which was written in response in the September 11th attacks, but Fallaci is hissing out her defense for all it’s worth. Fallaci now faces a trial and potential imprisonment for her diatribe in her native Italy on charges of vilifying Islam; ailing with cancer but still snarling in New York, Fallaci has stated that she refuses to attend her upcoming trial.

Namaskar! Rejoice the world. We Hindus are the chosen one to defeat and transform Islam. We have the Yogic power to do so.

well, I agree that European colonist did bad thing in the past. at least now they are trying to repay by giving chance to immigrant to work and live. but what about Islamist? most of africa, south asia and south-east-asia is now colonies of Islam. those people, their culture and economy have been raped by Islam. and yet none of the Arabic countries will allow them to immigrate. how many Pakis citizens did you see in Saudi Arabia getting immigrant status? do not make us fool. Europe is doing its best. Islam must be defeated and destroyed, and all the poor African, India and Indonesians must be rescued from this dark force. period.

You are lying. Muslims are honest citizens and they are only getting what you usurped out of their countires when you colonized them and looted their countries and massacred their people and destroyed their socio-economic system. You are the villian and still you are complaining it is like the lion who kills the bull and complains of its lack of enough food.
