Note: The spread of Islam in the West will bring this cultural problem to the fore. The problem will not grab the popular mind in the West until some truely major art work is destroyed by muslims. This is the price we will have to pay; Westerners are invariably stupidly slow to realise the significance of the 'rising temperature'. Just like the frog in the pot.
Read this and think...
Jihad Watch Board Vice President Hugh Fitzgerald discusses the threat to Western art posed by the Islamization of Europe:
Already statues have been vandalized by Muslims in public places, and in churches, in both France and Italy. The destruction of the monuments and artifacts and hence part of the histories of Infidels, that so many Christians, Jews, Zoroastrians, Hindus, and Buddhists in the Middle East, in North Africa, in the Balkans and southeastern Europe, in Central Asia and Hindustan and in southeast Asia know well, now has come to Western Europe.
What will happen in Italy, where every street corner in Rome has something that could be damaged by determined Muslims? What will happen to the churches, to the frescoes (including that which Muslims have been taped planning to destroy in Bologna), to the paintings in the Louvre, the Prado, the National Gallery, the Rijksmuseum, the Alte Pinakothek, the Uffizi? Has any organized association of museum curators, or of art scholars, even dared to think of organizing a conference on the protection of art in Europe, and the prohibitions of Islam against sculpture of all kinds, against paintings of living creatures?
Is anyone at all thinking about this, and contacting others? What about Philippe de Montebello or J. Carter Brown or Anne d'Harnoncourt or any other museum directors or retired directors, or any celebrated collectors, or those who already belong to such groups as Save Venice or Save Florence or FAI or Save Art here and there and everywhere? What about those who fund foundations that will pay to rescue Roman mosaics from the rising man-made floods that covered Zeugma, or the Temples near Aswan, but have a new kind of inundation to deal with, the flood-tide of Islam's adherents, who to the extent that they take their Islam seriously, can only threaten Western art, as they once not only threatened, but managed to destroy, so much of Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist, Greco-Bactrian monuments, stupas, manuscripts, temples, artifacts, to erase, or to appropriate as their own, the signs and symbols of anything pre-Islamic or non-Islamic?
Comment: Real Islam always means an attack on Western cultural artifacts. we all remember the destruction of the ancient staues of Buddha in Afghanistan. That was Real Islam at work. Don't ever forget that.
You see small examples of this backward muslim culture at work in Australian schools where the Education Department cravenly allow some muslim pupils to avoid music classes and school concerts, due to some crazed Islamic notions about music.
Australia has a culture that is superior to that of the muslims who came here...if not, why did they come? Our superior culture is the foundation of our successful life in Australia, just as their failed Islamic culture is the basis of their failed lives in 'the old country'. The function of education in Australia is to prepare all the pupils for life and work in Australia. This can only be successful if the pupils absorb the Australian culture that is available here.
Muslims should be let know that Australia is not just Centrelink and Medicare.
Is anyone awake in Canberra?
