31. Who Cares
k ,   US   (05.02.11)
Is Israel trying to make an alliance with the Europeans, I could care less if the Muslims take over, just remember what Europe did to the Jews for 1,500 years
32. #30 Low I.Q. as a way towards a healthier lifestyle
JOEL ,   WE ARE ALL SDEROT   (05.02.11)
Seems to be working for you Mrs. Also I suggest, following your ignorant bliss and ending your involvement with these talkbacks. as you have nothing to offer except really bad jokes in really bad taste.
33. Israel has 17,7% muslims, in 20 years it will be 23,2%
Lord ,   EU   (05.02.11)
34. It's all true & worse
Bart ,   Brussles, Belgium   (05.02.11)
The muslim youths even venture out of Brussels to go brutalise families with children at the beach and other recreational centers. Even the police in riot gear and with dogs have to retreat when these 'youths', as the media affectionately calls them, are starting to throw stones and bottles. What will happen to our grandchildren when muslims make up the majority everywhere ?
35. What does this tell you?

36. The only way Euope can survive the Islamists onslot
Fred ,   New York, USA   (05.02.11)
This is a great & true article. I think the only way Europe can survive this masive problem is to imidiately pass laws to limit the number of children any family can have to a number which would eventually protect them from this problem. China has done it for diferent reasons. They could even go further and limit the law only to any groups who have immigrated to Europe after lets say 1950's.
37. @29 but nearly all terrorists are muslim
Neo ,   EU   (05.02.11)
38. Eurabia
jj ,   belgium   (05.02.11)
"Eurabia", lets not forget "Britanistan"
39. #28
Mike ,   Malmö   (05.02.11)
I challenge your father to wear a kippa here in Malmö. He would be more safe to do so in Beirut.
40. The stupid Euros have only themselves to blame. HOWEVER...
Michael Steiner ,   Bahrain   (05.02.11)
That is what appeasement does. It is also the result of exalting the "human rights" business to high heaven and, pursuant to that, bending over (maybe backward maybe forward) to accommodate everyone. That would not be a problem if the other side played by the rules. But it doesn't. What's the point of clinging on to your lofty principles of tolerance of everything and everyone, as well as hassle-free immigration, when a fair number of those coming in want to destroy you!?! How dumb is that! Having said that, there IS hope that Islam will undergo the same process of secularization that Xianity experienced a few centuries back. Just like rabid Xian fanatics were neutered, there is hope that Muslims, too, might realize that religion is bunk. It WILL happen some day; the question is whether it will come before or after they grow in number sufficiently to alter Europe's character. It's a race against time, mes amis...
41. eurabia
gdfathermax ,   tel aviv israel   (05.02.11)
this article is 100% correct. i made aliya from england 4 yrs ago and can tell you the population has lost all free thought because of political correctness towards the muslim. they have become increasingly subserviant to their musilm population whilst becoming intolerant towards jews and hateful towards israel. the british jews have swallowed the same line and are loosing their identity or becoming increasingly left wing in their approach towards israel. shocking and very sad for them.
42. LOL @#19 The royal wedding is just another
Dan ,   USA   (05.02.11)
British anachronism. It is not going to change or prevent the Islamic demographic explosion in Europe.
43. More worried about Israel
Ron ,   OC, US   (05.03.11)
Israel is around 20% moslem and rising. This is both a demographic and military threat. Even the US has more moslems than Jews. Right now in spite of a liberal press in the US the Arab cause or personna does not play well with the American public. But, how long will it stay that way given their birth rate and of course oil. The US may never encourage its moslems to leave. Israel has to before it's too late. Europe I could care less about. They are in far less danger of going moslem than Israel.
44. In middle age, there was far more Muslim Arabs in Europe!!
Emilio   (05.03.11)
I am a Canadian Italian, and have an Arab ancestor, he was a muslim, but I am Italian Eropean, Catholic. I dont thinks Arab imigration to Europe is bad. I think having an Arab ancestor make me smarter, good looking and geneticaly richer. The writer is short sighted.
45. #43 exactly for this reason...
Tahl   (05.03.11)
Lieberman presented his plan of territorial exchange. Arab towns in Israel-proper bordering the green line (Baka, Taibeh, Um El Fahm, etc) would be annexed to the the future Palestinian state, in exchange for some Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria. Initially it was scoffed at, but today more and more Israelis realize this is the best plan to ensure the demographics here won't turn against us. Of course, virtually all Israeli-Arabs don't want this. They'd rather bitch and moan about being "second class citizens" in Israel, and enjoy the welfare, education, healthcare, and freedom of speech - than join their brothers in Palestine who would give them none of that. Still I hope this plan would go through eventually.
46. Eurabia
Romy ,   London, UK   (05.03.11)
A non-Jewish friend wore a kippah on the tube in London as an experiment. He was shocked at the hostility he garnered - mostly, unfortunately, from Muslims.
47. Sweden is anti-Semitic and I'm a witness
Swedish Jew   (05.03.11)
Go to Sweden and you will not see one Jew wearing kipa outside, even though there are 20 000 Jews living in Sweden. It was like this even before Muslim immigrated. Secondly, the vast majority of Swedes who are strongly against Muslim immigration, the so-called extreme right or nationalist, hold there views because of racial reasons rather than seeing the ideological problem and evil of Islam. So the Swedish nationalists are not being taken seriously, as they are racists, rather than anti-Islam.
48. the Jews have always been a barometer of tolerance
Nils ,   Germany   (05.03.11)
"the Jews have always been a barometer of tolerance" .... i think you better take a closer look at israel and their tolerance towards the arabs ....!!!!
49. #1 re Halimi
Susan ,   Kfar Saba   (05.03.11)
B.S. anyone would have called the police anoymously.
50. To look at it's future, all Europe has to do is look at the
Bat Zion ,   Central Israel   (05.03.11)
Middle East. Syria, Lebanon, Egypt - all are former Christian countries. Now Christians are merely 10% of these countries' population.
51. Maybe
Tomer ,   Hod Hasharon, Israel   (05.03.11)
I left Birmingham (UK) for Israel about 14 years ago. Back then there was already a large Muslim minority in the city - and a rather beautiful mosque, if truth be told. I visited last year, and was quite taken by the increase in Muslims one would see on the streets, often in full niqab/burka. But I do wonder as time goes by if the extremism will die down, as the younger population becomes more westernized.
52. Nils #48 compared to anybody else
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (05.03.11)
We are the epitome of tolerance toward Arabs. Where else in the Middle East do Arabs, Jews, Christians and others have equal rights? We are far more tolerant than you.
53. This article reads exactly
Johan L ,   Stockholm, Sweden   (05.04.11)
like the front page of the American Nazi Party. Go on, google it. Almost word for word the same. The article is riddled with halftruths and lies, but I'll shine some light on just one. It makes a reference to hate-crime against jews in Malmö, Sweden. 90% of those "crimes" were "commited" during a pro-war demonstration where jews and supporters were celebrating the deaths of 1500 civilian palestinians. If people were to throw eggs at nazis demonstrating their support the the Holocaust, would you still call it hate crimes?
54. Recommended: Al-Yahud by Sam Solomon
Kathryn ,   London, UK   (05.06.11)
Sadly, this rings true. As a resident of London, I see the Muslim population increasing all around me and yes, they all have more children than other groups. I don't think we British will be won over by proselytism, but we do stand to be defeated if we don't increase our birth rate and/or win Muslim hearts and minds. For an exposition of the Islamic doctrine of "eternal enmity against the Jews", see Sam Solomon's book Al-Yahud, available through Pilcrow Press. He's an expert on Islam and ex sharia court judge. Also an ex Muslim who can tell the truth about it.
55. Let's talk about "Nonsense".
Jack ,   Israel   (05.07.11)
Dear Kate from Jerusalem, It would be of great value to your opinion if you could describe: 1. What are your qualifications in respect of the issues at hand ? 2. What are the sources to your "Data" that make it reliable ? What really summarizes your talkback is the last paragraph, which I will translate if somebody misses its meaning, including you; It is OK to stand by and not interfere when somebody is tortured and murdered before your eyes as long as you fear for your own life. Now this is a formidable and commandable attitude, if I ever heard one.
56. no 6 you write
gdfathermax ,   tel aviv israel   (06.20.11)
absolute rubbish. i came to israel from london 4 years ago. the hatred towards the jews and israel is unbeleivable. muslims are gaining in every aspect of society. the locals hate the muslims but are scared of them. jewish opion is no longer accepted as valid. it won't take 80years in the uk. 20years maximum till the muslims take over.
57. @29 most Moslems
orest goyan ,   Edmonton, Alberta/Ca   (06.20.11)
You're right Daniel. 99% of all Moslems are hard working, honest, God fearing people; and, maybe, only 1% are Islamists or terrorists: but wait, 1% is over 100 million people !
58. We are the Future
Mohammad al Najad ,   Amsterdam Holland   (06.21.11)
Walk down any busy street in the UK or the EU and shout Mohammad 9 out of 10 people will turn around........ WE ARE THE FUTURE
59. # 58 We are the future
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (06.22.11)
Mohammad ! Yes,you are the future,but what kind of future ?.you are trying to inflict on your host countries the misery you escaped from in your native countries,there is still hope that a Charles Martel and a Winston Churchill will arise and save humanity from a deadly enemy.
60. # 26 Population numbers
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (06.22.11)
Bertram ! Jews in England newer tried to convert the people of England to their faith,certainly,not by force,while in every mosque all over the world,especially in England, the imams spew their hatred for Jews and christians,where is the new Winston Churchill ?. to save humanity from the new tyranny.
