Dear friends,

Thank you very much for inviting me.
 
I come to America with a mission.  All is not well in the old world.   There is a tremendous danger looming, and it is very difficult to be  optimistic.  We might be in the final stages of the Islamization of  Europe.  This not only is a clear and present danger to the future of  Europe itself, it is a threat to America and the sheer survival of the West.  The United States as the last bastion of Western civilization, facing an Islamic  Europe.
 
First I will describe the situation on the ground in Europe.  Then, I will  say a few things about Islam.  To close I will tell you about a meeting in  Jerusalem.
 
The Europe you know is changing.
 
You have probably seen the landmarks.  But in all of these cities,  sometimes a few blocks away from your tourist destination, there is another  world.  It is the world of the parallel society created by Muslim  mass-migration.
 
All throughout Europe a new reality is rising: entire Muslim neighborhoods  where very few indigenous people reside or are even seen.  And if they  are, they might regret it.  This goes for the police as well.  It's  the world of head scarves, where women walk around in figureless tents, with  baby strollers and a group of children.  Their husbands, or slaveholders  if you prefer, walk three steps ahead.  With mosques on many street  corners.

The shops have signs you and I cannot read.  You will  be hard-pressed to find any economic activity.  These are Muslim ghettos  controlled by religious fanatics.  These are Muslim neighborhoods, and  they are mushrooming in every city across Europe.  These are the  building-blocks for territorial control of increasingly larger portions of  Europe, street by street, neighborhood by neighborhood, city by city.
 
 There are now thousands of mosques throughout Europe.  With larger  congregations than there are in churches.  And in every European city  there are plans to build super-mosques that will dwarf every church in the  region.  Clearly, the signal is: we rule.
 
Many European cities are already one-quarter Muslim: just take Amsterdam,  Marseille and Malmo in Sweden.  In many cities the majority of the  under-18 population is Muslim.  Paris is now surrounded by a ring of  Muslim neighborhoods.  Mohammed is the most popular name among boys in  many cities.
 
In some elementary schools in Amsterdam the farm can no longer be mentioned,  because that would also mean mentioning the pig, and that would be an insult to  Muslims.
 
Many state schools in Belgium and Denmark only serve Halal food to all pupils.   In once-tolerant Amsterdam gays are beaten up almost exclusively by  Muslims.  Non-Muslim women routinely hear 'whore, whore'.  Satellite  dishes are not pointed to local TV stations, but to stations in the country of  origin.
 
In France school teachers are advised to avoid authors deemed offensive to  Muslims, including Voltaire and Diderot; the same is increasingly true of  Darwin.  The history of the Holocaust can no longer be taught because of  Muslim sensitivity.
 
In England sharia courts are now officially part of the British legal system.  Many neighborhoods in France are no-go areas for women without head scarves.   Last week a man almost died after being beaten up by Muslims in Brussels,  because he was drinking during the Ramadan.
 
Jews are fleeing France in record numbers, on the run for the worst wave of  anti-Semitism since World War II.  French is now commonly spoken on the  streets of Tel Aviv and Netanya, Israel.  I could go on forever with  stories like this.  Stories about Islamization.
 
A total of fifty-four million Muslims now live in Europe.  San Diego  University recently calculated that a staggering 25 percent of the population  in Europe will be Muslim just 12 years from now.  Bernhard Lewis has predicted  a Muslim majority by the end of this century.
 
 Now these are just numbers.  And the numbers would not be  threatening if the Muslim-immigrants had a strong desire to assimilate.   But there are few signs of that.  The Pew Research Center reported  that half of French Muslims see their loyalty to Islam as greater than their  loyalty to France.  One-third of French Muslims do not object to suicide  attacks.  The British Centre for Social Cohesion reported that one-third  of British Muslim students are in favor of a worldwide caliphate.  Muslims  demand what they call 'respect'. And this is how we give them respect.  We  have Muslim official state holidays.
 
The Christian-Democratic attorney general is willing to accept sharia in the  Netherlands if there is a Muslim majority.  We have cabinet members with  passports from Morocco and Turkey.
 
Muslim demands are supported by unlawful behavior, ranging from petty crimes  and random violence, for example against ambulance workers and bus drivers, to  small-scale riots.  Paris has seen its uprising in the low-income suburbs,  the banlieus.  I call the perpetrators “settlers,” because that is what  they are.  They do not come to integrate into our societies; they come to  integrate our society into their Dar-al-Islam.  Therefore, they are  settlers.
 
Much of this street violence I mentioned is directed exclusively against  non-Muslims, forcing many native people to leave their neighborhoods, their  cities, their countries. Moreover, Muslims are now a swing vote not to be ignored.
 
The second thing you need to know is the importance of Mohammed the prophet.   His behavior is an example to all Muslims and cannot be criticized.   Now, if Mohammed had been a man of peace, let us say like Ghandi and  Mother Theresa wrapped in one, there would be no problem.  But Mohammed  was a warlord, a mass murderer, a pedophile, and had several marriages - at the  same time.  Islamic tradition tells us how he fought in battles, how he  had his enemies murdered and even had prisoners of war executed.
Mohammed himself slaughtered the Jewish tribe of Banu  Qurayza.  If it is good for Islam, it is good.  If it is bad for  Islam, it is bad.
 
Let no one fool you about Islam being a religion.  Sure, it has a god, and  a here-after, and 72 virgins.  But in its essence Islam is a political  ideology.  It is a system that lays down detailed rules for society and  the life of every person.  Islam wants to dictate every aspect of life.   Islam means 'submission'.  Islam is not compatible with freedom and  democracy, because what it strives for is sharia.  If you want to compare  Islam to anything, compare it to communism or national-socialism, these are all  totalitarian ideologies.
 
Now you know why Winston Churchill called Islam “the most retrograde force in  the world,” and why he compared Mein Kampf to the Quran.  The public has  wholeheartedly accepted the Palestinian narrative, and sees Israel as the  aggressor.  I have lived in this country and visited it dozens of times.   I support Israel.  First, because it is the Jewish homeland after  two thousand years of exile up to and including Auschwitz, second because it is  a democracy, and third because Israel is our first line of defense.
 
This tiny country is situated on the fault line of jihad, frustrating Islam's  territorial advance.  Israel is facing the front lines of jihad, like  Kashmir, Kosovo, the Philippines, Southern Thailand, Darfur in Sudan, Lebanon,  and Aceh in Indonesia.  Israel is simply in the way.  The same way  West-Berlin was during the Cold War.
 
The war against Israel is not a war against Israel.  It is a war against  the West.  It is jihad. Israel is simply receiving the blows that are  meant for all of us.  If there would have been no Israel, Islamic  imperialism would have found other venues to release its energy and its desire  for conquest.  Thanks to Israeli parents who send their children to the  army and lay awake at night, parents in Europe and America can sleep well and  dream, unaware of the dangers looming.
 
Many in Europe argue in favor of abandoning Israel in order to address the  grievances of our Muslim minorities.  But if Israel were, God forbid, to  go down, it would not bring any solace to the West It would not mean our Muslim  minorities would all of a sudden change their behavior, and accept our values.   On the contrary, the end of Israel would give enormous encouragement to  the forces of Islam.  They would, and rightly so, see the demise of Israel  as proof that the West is weak, and doomed.  

The end of Israel would not mean the end of our problems  with Islam, but only the beginning.  It would mean the start of the final  battle for world domination.  If they can get Israel, they can get  everything.  

So-called journalists volunteer to label any and all critics  of Islamization as a “right-wing extremists” or “racists.”  In my country,  the Netherlands, 60 percent of the population now sees the mass immigration of  Muslims as the number one policy mistake since World War II.  And another  60 percent sees Islam as the biggest threat.  Yet there is a greater  danger than terrorist attacks, the scenario of America as the last man  standing.
The lights may go out in Europe faster than you can imagine.   An Islamic Europe means a Europe without freedom and democracy, an  economic wasteland, an intellectual nightmare, and a loss of military might for  America - as its allies will turn into enemies, enemies with atomic bombs.   With an Islamic Europe, it would be up to America alone to preserve the  heritage of Rome, Athens and Jerusalem.
 
Dear friends, liberty is the most precious of gifts.  My generation never  had to fight for this freedom, it was offered to us on a silver platter, by  people who fought for it with their lives.  All throughout Europe,  American cemeteries remind us of the young boys who never made it home, and  whose memory we cherish.  My generation does not own this freedom; we are  merely its custodians.  We can only hand over this hard won liberty to  Europe 's children in the same state in which it was offered to us.  We  cannot strike a deal with mullahs and imams.  Future generations would  never forgive us.  We cannot squander our liberties.  We simply do  not have the right to do so.
 
We have to take the necessary action now to stop this Islamic stupidity from  destroying the free world that we know.
