There are more and more of these burnings all the time. The protesters and those who are running them apparently believe that if they keep up the outrage, threats and violence, the West will eventually capitulate, abandon the freedom of expression, and adopt Sharia blasphemy laws. Given the Leftist elites’ disdain for the freedom of […]
More Secrets of Denmark’s Success
This morning I posted five of the ten ways that Denmark has managed to discourage immigration and to satisfy the demands of a population opposed to more arrivals. Here are the remaining five, once again from an enlightening article Remix published last February: “10 ways Denmark’s left-wing government reduced asylum applications by 82% and dramatically […]
How Denmark Does It
With all the turmoil in France and simmering tensions elsewhere in Europe, it’s useful to recall a piece that the indispensable site Remix published in February about how left-wing Denmark has done more to reduce immigration and to maintain its homogeneous European character than any other country in Europe. Details of Denmark’s astonishing success – […]
Turkish Muslim Invaders Who Looted Roman Statue Want It Back from Denmark
Give us back the thing you stole from us after we stole it. The question of whom archeological finds belong to can be a fraught one. It may be reasonable for the Greeks to demand Greek artifacts from other European countries. It’s not however remotely reasonable for the Turks to expect Roman artifacts that they […]
Rasmus Paludan: ‘Danish police have surrendered to the heckler’s veto’
[Editor’s note: I received this email from Danish freedom activist Rasmus Paludan, clarifying our report here and providing additional details. That email is published here with Mr. Paludan’s permission. — RS] Dear friend Mr. Spencer, I noticed your article that I had been arrested to prevent me from burning a Koran. https://jihadwatch.org/2023/06/denmark-police-arrest-freedom-activist-rasmus-paludan-to-prevent-him-from-burning-the-quran This is not […]
Denmark: Police arrest freedom activist Rasmus Paludan to prevent him from burning the Qur’an
Bowing to violent intimidation will only get you more violent intimidation. “Rasmus Paludan deprived of liberty by the police: Enormously restrictive,” translated from “Rasmus Paludan frihedsberøvet af politiet: Enormt indskrænkende,” by Emily Smith, Jeppe Grunnan, and Charlotte Bech Mathiesen, Ekstra Bladet, June 15, 2023: Rasmus Paludan was due to arrive at the Folkemødet on Bornholm […]
Denmark: Muslim migrant accused of sexual abuse and beating of daughters, also beat his wife
There is, of course, domestic violence in all cultures. So to post this is just “Islamophobic,” right? Wrong: there is domestic violence in all cultures, but only in one does it have divine sanction. Islam doesn’t teach that man may kill his wife, but once you’ve allowed him to beat her, accidents will happen. The […]
Denmark: Muslim migrant teen who tried to murder another teen with a machete gets only four years in prison
After four years, or more likely around two, in prison, Ahmad Talal Hawila will become a loyal, stable, productive Danish citizen, right? Absolutely nothing has been done, is being done, or will be done to make that happen, but Danish authorities will assume it has happened nevertheless, and unleash Hawila upon the population without a […]
Denmark: Proposal to make Muhammad cartoon crisis a compulsory part of curriculum rejected
This could have been a valuable lesson in the importance of the freedom of speech and the necessity of standing up to violent intimidation. Instead, it is yet another lesson in how free societies die. “The government turned in fear: new victory for Islam,” translated from “Regjeringen snudde i frykt: ny seier til islam,” by […]
Denmark: Muslim migrant granted citizenship, shows gratitude by joining ISIS and shooting at photos of famous Danes
The Danes never considered that Ahmed el-Haj might have no interest in becoming a loyal citizen, and was seeking citizenship for practical reasons only. That would have been “Islamophobic.” “He became a Danish citizen: As a ‘thank you’ he supported IS and shot at Fogh and Khader – now he is convicted of treason and […]
