'People worry about Islam, its leaders about Islamophobia'
Over at the Brussels Journal, Fjordman takes issue with Thorbjørn Jagland, president of the Norwegian parliament, who has warned against the rise of Islamophobia in Europe. Fjorman opines that the problem is not Islamophobia but Islam itself, and he outlines the familiar "Eurabian" fantasy about European culture swamped by waves of Muslim migrants:
"Combined with modern means of communication, we get the largest and fastest population transfers ever recorded, large enough to destroy nations or, in the case of Europe, perhaps even entire continents. This is 'the great extinction of peoples' and small Scandinavian nations with a few million inhabitants, a drop in the sea of humanity, will be completely crushed by these processes unless they take strong steps to limit immigration. That's the simple truth. Yet all our so-called leaders can do is warn against 'xenophobia'."
