Brussels, April 6, IRNA -- ''La ilaha illallah, Falastin Islamiya'' (There is no god but Allah, Palestine is Islamic) chanted hundreds of demonstrators in the centre of Brussels after Friday prayers.
The protestors held placards saying ''Bush, Sharon axis of Terrorism,'' ''Support the Intifada,'' and ''Free Arafat.'' They also recited the al-Fatiha supplication for the salvation of the soil of Intifada martyrs.
One Belgian human rights activist, speaking for the demonstrators, called on the Belgian government to cut diplomatic ties with Israel.
Friday's demonstration, held in front of the Brussels Stock Exchange, was organised by several human rights and peace organisations of Belgium.
On Sunday, a massive demonstration in support of Palestinians is planned to be held in Brussels with the participation of thousands of people from Belgium, France and other European countries.
TOPICS: Foreign Affairs; Israel
KEYWORDS: belgium; brussels; israel; palestinians
In this article I see the usage of the words 'human rights' and 'peace organizations'. But where were they protesting when the Palestinains were killing off Israeli citizens? Where were they pretesting when Arafat declared the second intifada? I cannot remember them protesting when Palestinian gunmen fired at busses.

These aren't native Belgians--they are imported guest workers!

Ten percent of Belgium is now Muslim. Pray for western civilization.

"Bush, Sharon axis of Terrorism"
In that context, don't you need three to truly be an "axis"? Morons...

When the islamist wackos start war in Europe so they can make it an islamic land, I don't think I'll bother to help the Euro-idiots.
What's that old saying about laying down in sh*t and waking up with maggots (or something like that).
I like the european cafes, restaurants, bakeries etc. Their culture and politics, however, are self destructive. They deserve the future they're destroying for themselves.

There was someone on Fox (I don't remember who he was) who said the elephant in the bedroom that no one was talking about was the huge Muslim population in countries like France. He said that was why they were siding with the Palestinians, because it siding against them could easily tip their own elections, some of which are upcoming. I was so glad to hear someone explain it, because now I understand why they are doing what they were doing, even though the explanation frightens me even more.
To: I still care
Bullshit, it's not as if after the elections that those very same euro politicans are going to actually do something about the massive wave of muslim migrants that are flooding over their borders.
They wont realize that they should have done something until its too late.
Good riddence
