France: Pork and wine party goes forward, but in a different location
Relocated, so as not to offend Muslims. An update on this story. “Banned Paris “sausage and wine” party goes ahead,” from Reuters, June 19, via JW
PARIS — Paris police on Tuesday banned a controversial “pork sausage and wine” street party planned by extremist groups to combat what they saw as the “Islamisation” of a city neighbourhood. AFP
A French government minister of Algerian descent, Fadela Amara, on Tuesday condemned the planned party as “hateful, racist and xenophobic.”
Previous Riots
Of course, it was to be held in a “heavily Muslim neighborhood” — a provocation, to be sure. And yet I can’t help but wonder what might have happened if a Muslim group in France had announced that it was going to do something in a non-Muslim area that many non-Muslims found offensive. (That would not be the same thing as holding the halal event in the same area, as described in the article below.) I expect that the same police who banned this party would be protecting the Muslims physically and lecturing the non-Muslims about “tolerance.”

Tundra Tabloids Archive: Â FRENCH CITIZENS CALL ON SARKOZY TO STOP ILLEGAL MUSLIM PRAYERS IN CITY STREETS OF PARIS…….
Update: See also Reuters, which reports that after the ban was announced supporters of the event wrote on the Facebook pagethat they would still gather in Goutte d’Or on Friday. “It’s official – Muslims can pray in the street but we don’t have the right to eat pork there. France is now ruled by sharia,” one supporter wrote. The Reuters report adds: “The Paris event page also carried announcements of similar ‘sausage and wine’ parties in Lyon, Toulouse, Brussels and London, where the event is called a ‘bacon and beer‘ party.”

All links from Islam in Europe
Can’t blame ’em. There are places in Paris where you wouldn’t dare  step out of your car. There are some 780 “no go zones” in France, and its getting worse by the day.

Pretentious:
They don’t object to Judaism, per se, but rather to one of its basic principles (Zionism might not be ‘part of the Jewish faith’, but the Land of Israel is). What’s the difference between saying you have nothing against Jews, just their deeply held beliefs, and saying you have no trouble with Muslims, but rather with the religion they practice?

RedState’s Erick Erickson, actually laughed [in print]:
“Hahahahaha. I thought the world would love us more now that Bush was gone. I thought if we whored ourselves out to our enemies, great things would happen. Apparently not. So Obama’s pimped us to every two bit thug and dictator in the world, made promises to half the Olympic committee, and they did not even kiss him. So much for improving America’s standing in the world, Barry O.”

Unrecognizable America: Free Speech Death Knell
Atlas Shrugs
First time America (Obama) signs onto to a UNÂ Human rights council (of barbarians) resolution that we sponsored-do not insult Islam.
I cannot believe the US sponsored this “inaugural” resolution. I cannot believe this would not repel America. I cannot believe how excoriated the few of us were when we brought up Obama’s Muslim father, upbringing, schooling before the election. We were called every name in the book and marginalized, ostracized, becuase we told the truth. You could not mention these facts, facts that were/are clearly relevant.But we were right. It shaped, formed his worldview. We were ripped if we mentioned it, now he he lords it over us.

Greg Sheridan from the Australian in Paris with MP Thierry Mariani, a Sarkozy confidant, best known for his trenchant views on immigration:
Hardly. That’s not what Muslims have in mind:
“We will outbreed you with the bellies of our women…”
Houari Boumédienne, Algeria’s undisputed ruler until his death in 1978, said it clearly In 1974:
“One day, millions of men will leave the Southern Hemisphere to go to the Northern Hemisphere. And they will not go there as friends. Because they will go there to conquer it. And they will conquer it with their sons. The wombs of our women will give us victory.
Integrate this?
From the Boulevarde St Germain, take a metro about 15 minutes north to the 18th arrondissement. Here there are a few white faces, but not many. There are some Chinese, but most of the people come from the Maghreb, Morocco or Algeria, or from sub-Saharan Africa. The streets are scruffy. Many women have their heads covered, and groups of young black men stand around on corners. Further north, beyond Paris’s city limits, are ghettos where no white face is seen. There are five or six million Muslims in France out of a total population of 64 million, almost all from Africa. Many are successful French citizens, but the levels of unemployment, disadvantage and alienation in the ghettos are strikingly high.
“You’ll see suburbs of Paris where there are only blacks, or people from the Maghreb. It’s a disaster for French society – there is no melting pot.”
Since the election two years ago of Nicolas Sarkozy – himself the son of an immigrant – there has been a more robust national discussion of immigration policy and what France expects from its new citizens…
