| #8 This is insane. Apparently Islam's call to convert or kill their entire population doesn't worry them. |

| #6 "Chickens in Belgium have to be killed after preliminary anaesthesia in an official abattoir or by a licensed butcher." Strangely it's still not required to provide blindfolds as of yet. |

| #5 deep in the article is this nugget, "...The Muslim influence on Belgian politics has tangible consequences. Secretary Kir wants to demolish the monument commemorating the 1915 Turkish genocide of 1.5 million Armenian Christian civilians. According to Kir, who is responsible for public monuments, the âso-called Armenian genocideâ is a hoax, concocted by âimperialists.â..." |

| #4 The language thingy is ok. Brussels is a French-speaking commune, and to speak Dutch/Flemish there is to mark yourself as an outsider. However, if she wants to be able to communicate with her non-voting constituency, she'd better learn English post-haste; else, she'll never be able to explain to the various alphabet organizations where they're to meet her for lunch. (Food in Brussels is considerably better, and more voluminous, than in France; a gourmand's paradise. Belgium is the kind of country where meat inspectors are murdered regularly for noticing that the animals have been treated with hormones for tenderness.) |

| #3 Ms Hariche, who replaces Freddy Thielemans whilst he is on sick leave, is bilingual too, speaking French and Arabic but no Dutch. Ah, the educated Muslim's second language |

| #1 It's looking more and more like moderate Islam will be born in Europe, as its Christian population dies off, and replaced by more fertile Muslims. |
