| Thousands of Germans protest anti-Islam meet |
| 2008-09-22 |
| German police said tens of thousands of Cologne residents took to the streets Saturday to protest an "anti-Islamization" conference of European far-right leaders. Carrying banners saying: "We are Cologne -- Get rid of the Nazis!" protesters gathered outside the city's cathedral to demonstrate against the congress organized by the local far-right group Pro-Koeln (For Cologne). Pro-Koeln began two days of seminars Friday during which speakers denounced an influx of Muslims to Germany and the construction of one of Europe's largest mosques in the city. Earlier Saturday, police banned a rally organized by far-right adherents in Cologne just as it was about to begin, following clashes with thousands of opponents. |

| #5 Whoops, I stand corrected, Ed. I was thinking total population around 360,000. Mebbe that's what it was some 38 years ago, the only time I visited. But, that's worse. That means the Muzz start their takeover moves and beligerence once they exceed 10% of the population. At 12%, they ought to be squashed like a bug on a sidewalk and nothing more be said. |

| #3 The Muslims are an interesting group. They are savy enough to use our systems and prejudices to advance their own agenda but not savy enough to shut up and breed and win outright without warning. If it ever gets to a shooting war they also have the disadvantage that they tend to congregate to known locations for Friday Sermons. |

| #1 Roughly 1/2 of Cologne population is now Muslim. They are about to erect one of the largest mosks (and arms storage facilities) on the Euorpean continent. Who mught the anti-islamo protestors have been ? They apparently violently attacked these protestors, who were native Germans, and who did the cops suppress ? You guessed it. |
