#1 Stopping Islamization by banning mosque construction. Great idea, they should've thought of that -- stopping a German invasion by banning beer, a Russian invasion by banning Vodka, and an American (tourist) invasion by banning McDonald's.

#2 Well, mosques are sprouting all over the place, including a giant one at Poitiers, where the moors were stopped by Charles Martel, I think you can see the importance of the symbol,... often on public ground being leased or sold for a symbolic euro by the mayor (plenty of voting opportunities here), and with illegal subsidies from the State (trick is to let it fund the "cultural" part of the mosque)... all this while churches are left to decay and to be pillaged by art thieves.

IIRC, France has now more mosque per mulim capita than Morocco. Yet, more are erected every week.

That, and his simple, basic, affirmation that french law must prevail over multiculturalism and islamic values (did you know that the french authorities, led by left wing interior minister Chevènement, caved on the right to change religion back?), gets him my vote.

Of course, in the long run, this doesn't change a thing to the grand shift.

I repeat, he's dubbed as a "right winger" and an extremist, but he's still a run-of-the-mill pol, operating in the cadre of legality. He's proposing legal solution to an unsolvable problem.

It's not like he's going to announce ethnic cleasing or something. And short of that, we're screwed. So, things will get worse, until the tipping point. It won't even have to be violent. Wer're screwed.

#3 define terms. islamization.

to me, it's more than allowing the free practice of islam. we do that in the US and we're not islamicized. islamization is more about the culture moving in a more islamic direction. When prisons and schools cut out whole categories of food, when dress codes are completely redone, when language, music, day to day activities, etc become infused with muslim influences, when other groups are offended because of society's contortions NOT to offend islam - THAT'S islamization.

And that's exactly what's happening in europe.

#5 It's good that the gentleman is saying things that need to be said. Just like yesterday's article about that Dutch report on Islam that caused such consternation over there, it's important that Europeans insist on actually thinking about the risks of the maintaining the current direction. As a result of the the rioting youths and Cartoonifada, Europeans are starting to awaken from their sleep -- and we pray they turn that into real action.

However, Monsieur Philippe De Villiers is a European conservative, which I understand to be a Monarchist, or at least one who wishes to restore rule by the aristocratics and the Catholic church. If he is read that way by the masses of Frenchmen, steeped in the pleasures of Marxist rhetoric and awareness of the several French Revolutions, he will not get a significant number of votes, no matter how much the peepul agree with his sentiments on the subject of the Muslim Conquest. JFM, a5089, could you be so kind as to expand a bit on Mr De Villiers other ideas for governing France?

Thank you.

#6 Since you ask - I think his views of Islam (which I do not call the religion of peace, it is a diverse religion) are incorrect. But then most here would not be surprised.

If French Jews prefer this man over Sarkozy Id be surprised indeed.

#7 TW,

Reading his site, even with my rusty French, Villiers is not a monarchist (at least not openly). He is a euroskeptic, to the point that he introduced the "polish plumber" meme into european discourse, apparently.

It's not happening in the US?

I guess I only imagined the blacked out bits in South Park, or the odd gaps in news coverage.
