The problem is, it is the people on the street, the common citizens who do have to deal with it, not the people at the top of the European Union hierarchy. The E.U. Chief is basically saying, "Let them eat cake."
Except in this case, he is saying, "Let them eat a cake filled with pestilential hatred."
BRUSSELS , May 5 (KUNA) -- The President of the European
Commission, Jose Manuel Barroso, underlined here Monday that Islam is part and
parcel of Europe and he also condemned the concept of clash of
civilisations.
"Islam today is part of Europe. It is important to understand
this. One should not see Islam as outside Europe. We already have an
important presence of Islam and Muslims among our citizens," Barroso told a
press conference this afternoon after an informal dialogue between EU leaders
and around twenty high-level representatives of Christianity, Judaism and Islam
in Europe.
"We can be a European citizen being a Christian, being Jewish or Muslim
or having no religion," he noted.
On his part, the Grand Mufti of Bosnia-Herzegovina, Dr.Mustafa Ceric,
said Islam is indeed part of Europe but unfortunately Turkey is not yet part of
Europe.
Yes, Islam is part of Europe.
