Transcript:

0:37		I must speak French if you permit…
0:45		Freedom of speech and sharia, as already perfectly said by Mr. Jansen.
0:51		I lived 35 years in Arabo-Muslim countries.
0:58		I studied Islam almost 40 years,
1:04		I came here (to Belgium). I dared to say: “One mosque in Europe is worse (more dangerous) than a nuclear plant.”
1:19		I also dared to say: “A well Islamized Muslim child is a timed bomb against little European children.”
1:37		Luck, or misfortune, I’ve been sued.
1:45		The trial lasted almost 6 years, I had 4 barristers,
1:52		All went well and we won.
1:58		Politically correct thinkers and European journalists were angry about this victory.
2:07		They were thinking that we had to lose, that they (the judges) were going to shut our mouths, our freedom of speech.
2:17		I think Mr. Jansen spoke very well on the topic of Sharia; I will add a word about Sharia.
2:24		Sharia is against atheists, Jews, our friends the Jews, and Christians.
2:43		Fight, kill all who don’t believe in Allah, the Muslim’s god. Chapter 9 verse 29 of the Koran.
2:57		Concerning our friends the Jews: The Koran says chap 31 v 61, this is Sharia! Be they cursed, kill them everywhere you’ll find them, without mercy.
3:16		Concerning the poor Christians, they are miscreants, when you meet them either kill them in a big slaughter chap 47 v 4 of the Koran.
3:33		And that’s also Sharia.
3:37		Mohammed’s words, the Hadith, I studied Islam during 40 years and I know what I’m talking about.
3:47		With a great historian, Johan Bourlard, he is here, we wrote this historic dictionary of Islamic intolerance,
4:05		2000 pages. When we talk, we know our subject.
4:12		Bat Ye’or, whom we love very much, wrote this book’s preface. It took years to write it.
4:24		Bat Ye’or’s testimony for father Samuel Boniface, missionary: “For father Samuel, my brother in dhimmitude. We are dhimmis if we don’t want.
4:40		My brother in dhimmitude who felt, experienced and studied of dhimmitude’s sufferings and who’s not afraid to talk about it in the name of the persecuted.
4:53		With all my thanks for his courageous defense of Israel.”
4:58		We love Israel, the only democratic country in Middle East, in which Christians are not killed.
5:11		Where Christians are free, in contrast to all other Islamic countries, where Christians have no freedom even to live nor to have freedom of speech.
5:22		Often are slaughtered, insulted, defamed.
5:25		And I can tell you, 42 people from my family were killed in 1915.
5:33		That’s Islamic tolerance.
5:36		No, in Islam there is no Peace nor Love nor Tolerance. It’s hate of others but we have to love them.
5:44		As human beings, we have to love them. It’s natural.
5:53		Here there is something very interesting for our friend (David) Littman.
5:58		In 2010… Er… 4 four years ago when I met him, he told to me: “In the name of ?? Israel, pray over my head.”
6:10		I put my hands on his head and it’s true, he came to assist my holy mass, Catholic in Latin, French and Aramaic.
6:18		And he said: “Father Samuel has lengthened my life by four years.” And finally, it’s life, the human being is born to die.
6:29		The human being is born to die and we must be tolerant naturally.
6:34		But tolerance must be with reciprocity. For me, tolerance is humanity’s soul. But alas, in Islam there is no tolerance.
6:43		There is always taqiyya. Taqiyya is deceit.
6:49		There is an invasion of Europe guided from outside, carefully planned by our leaders, some of our leaders.
6:59		In order for Islam to replace Judaism, Christianity here in the Western world.
7:05		We must say no.
7:27		When David Littman came, he read the chapter 1, God bless Israel, and I said to him: “Jesus said in the Gospel (chap 4, v 22) “Salvation comes from Jews”
7:41		(showing projected pictures) Here Bat Ye’or on one side and Littman on the other side. He was very happy.
7:55		I said “Glory to the folk of Israel” A democratic country in the middle of 300 million Muslims.
8:07		The only democratic country, the only country featuring free Christians, the only country where Christians are not killed.
8:14		But alas, the Western media always unjustly attack Israel, it’s a shame.
