Czech President says Muslim integration ‘practically impossible’

[Boiler 46,359]

Head of state linked Cologne New Year’s attacks with passages from the Quran.

The existence of “ghettos” in some West European countries proves that “the integration of the Muslim community is practically impossible,” Czech President Miloš Zeman said Sunday.

In an interview with the tabloid Blesk, Zeman cited two passages from the Quran that he said reflected men’s right to mistreat women and he highlighted the sexual assaults of dozens of women in Germany on New Year’s Eve.

“It follows that those refugees mainly from the Islamic religion treated German women like they were accustomed to in their home countries,” he said.

“Let them have their culture in their countries and not take it to Europe, otherwise it will end up like Cologne.”

He said Vietnamese and Ukrainian communities had been able to assimilate into Czech society, because “integration is possible with cultures that are similar, and the similarities may vary.”

Czech President Miloš Zeman

Last year the Czech president called the arrival of more than 1 million refugees in Europe an “organized invasion.”

And in October, Zeman drew flak after he said Muslim refugees would not respect local laws.

“We’ll be deprived of women’s beauty, because they’ll be covered from head to toe,” he said. “Unfaithful women will be stoned and thieves will have their hands cut off.”

“Let them have their culture in their countries and not take it to Europe, otherwise it will end up like Cologne.”

These are not unreasonable statements.

Bigoted, hateful statements about the religion of peace.

Just because poll after poll shows that massive numbers of European muslims want to see sharia law in the country they just moved to doesn't mean they can't integrate! Just like western law, sharia promotes lashes for slander, death for blasphemy, death by stoning for adulterers, amputations of hands for theft, etc. All very reasonably and completely in line with western values.

Just because poll after poll shows worrying percentages of muslims in western nations support killing in the name of islam doesn't mean they aren't integrated!

The problem is the article uses too much reason and study based in researched facts. If it would put these distracting data points to the side and just everybody get into a big circle around the fire and sing songs it would see the real truth of this.

The truth is uncomfortable for people that like to think they are enlightened.

It amazes me that liberals rush into a tickle fest to embrace them, when they stand for every thing liberals hate.

Let Chic file a close on Sundays and liberals lose thier mind.

Let Islam make women run around in bed sheets, walking 6 ft behind thier men and execute gays, and they get mad if we don't rush to accept them.

[Darnell 8,479]

what?

eh - he's not on a PC these days, and it's still messy with the swipe actions. next he'll complain about the grammar police, when, instead, it's the spelling skills from his phone that's messing him up. he WANTS to spell it properly, but he uses the wrong gear. Tis a focused pattern, almost 3 years now.. It's funny sometimes, like

whats up with the Chics in Czech Republic ? we could fill 11 pages on that topic, but that'd be a nasty thread drift involving chinese dress makers that snuck across the border.

and the only reason a liberal would be outraged at that is..can't have chic fil a on sunday.

eh - real conservatives stock up on saturdays ! Most liberals don't do this 'day-ahead' planning...

Eh - when/if the EU clearly states that 'inclusion in the EU' requires the lovey-kissy-allowance of muslim financial migrants into the EU, then this will be some problem for the Czech Republic.

Till then ? I hope/pray the Czech Republic keeps em out, using any means necessary. Who needs that financial drain?

I think it'd be a better thing just to re-port them all into Liberia, and have some Chinese-government-manufacturing companies set up there, paying really low wages. Won't be much of a stretch, they (the CGM C's) already have a huge presence in Africa and it'd be a cheap move/country takeover for them.

The Clinton foundation is on it already

Hillary Confidant Hails Ghana’s 23-Cent Wage to Textile Investors

Cheryl D. Mills, long-time friend and confidant of Bill and Hillary Clinton, is promoting a 23 cents-an-hour wage in the West African nation of Ghana to lure textile and apparel industry companies to invest there even as the former secretary of state advocates a $15-an-hour “livable wage” here.

Mills’ newly formed firm, the BlackIvy Group, LLC., makes the pitch with a powerpoint presentation that was obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation

Critics interviewed by TheDCNF charged that the presentation promotes “slave labor” and “slave wages.”

The campaign by Mills’ firm to attract investors to Ghana on the basis of a wage that is only 1.5 percent of the value of the proposed Livable Wage could undermine the former secretary of state’s campaign for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination.

Mills established BlackIvy with her as its CEO in 2013 when she left the State Department where she had been Clinton’s chief of staff through most of the latter’s tenure as America’s chief diplomat. Mills was also a member of President Clinton’s impeachment defense team during his 1998 trial before the Senate.

Jean-Louis Warnholz, a BlackIvy founding principal and the company’s managing director, delivered the presentation about shockingly low Ghanian wages before an audience of investors attending an “Origin Africa” textile expo last August in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

Warnholz said in the presentation that Ghana’s minimum wage of 23 cents-per-hour “compares favorably” to other countries and he specifically cited “China (U.S.$1.63/hr), Bangladesh (U.S$ .68/hr), and Vietnam (U.S.$.40/hr).”

He said Ghana was an “ideal entry point” to West Africa for the textile industry as Ghana is located in the second largest cotton-growing region in the world. Warnholz used the BlackIvy presentation in promoting an industrial park in Ghana called Westpark at the conference.

BlackIvy Group’s website describes it as a “values-driven company” that “builds and grows commercial enterprises in Sub-Sharan Africa.”

Warnholz also worked at the Clinton State Department with Mills and he promoted the failed Caracol industrial park in Haiti, which emphasized low-wage textile workers and exports. At the time, Warnholz was a senior advisor to the [George] Soros Economic Development Fund. Warnholz was a “senior advisor” to Clinton at the State Department. Other BlackIvy consultants also came from the department.

Mills’ contacts among African political and business leaders were likely enhanced when she accompanied Clinton on a whirlwind tour of eight African countries in 2012, including Ghana, according to documents obtained by Citizens United under the Freedom of Information Act.

Her company, based in a Washington, D.C. suburb says it does investment work for Ghana, Tanzania and Kenya.

Still, she continues to support the Clinton campaign. A quarterly filing by the Clinton campaign to the Federal Election Commission last September showed it paid Mills $28,500 for “disbursements.” No additional details about the expenditure were provided to the FEC.

’ Ghana advocacy could also complicate Clinton’s relations with organized labor. Unite Here, the nation’s largest textile worker union, has not yet endorsed a presidential candidate. That union was the first national union to endorse then-Sen. Barack Obama over Clinton in the 2008 presidential race.

Unite Here did not respond to a request for comment from TheDCNF.

Textile jobs in American plants have plummeted by nearly two thirds because of competition from low- wage workers overseas, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

With the elimination of import quotas, “you saw imports of clothing rising and you saw the job losses accelerating.” Stephen MacDonald, a senior economist at the Department of Agriculture, told TheDCNF.

At least 900,000 jobs have been lost in the American textile industry, according to USDA’s Economic Research Service. Many of those jobs have been lost in the South, which is home to the South Carolina presidential primary.

Raynard Jackson, a black Republican political strategist who also has promoted business investment in Africa, told TheDCNF that he was “stunned,” by Mills’ low-wage promotion.

“Nobody I have done work with in Africa doing business there has ever used as a ‘strategic advantage’ a 23 cent an hour minimum wage. That’s slave labor,” he said.

“I guarantee you, no Republican businessmen would never go to Africa and do that,” Jackson said. “Even if they thought they could get away with it, they wouldn’t do it because to us that would be morally objectionable.”

Jackson warned that “if a Republican candidate were to get hold of this information, they would be crazy not to tie this to Hillary.”

Harry C. Alford, president and CEO of the National Black Chamber of Commerce, charged that Mills is acting like a “poverty pimp” in promoting the meager Ghanian wage to textile industry investors.

“Her mentality is, ‘I don’t care what happens to someone else or the economy. I’m trying to make me some money,'” Alford told TheDCNF. He called 23 cents-an-hour “slave wages” and “hypocrisy.”

BlackIvy is promoting investment in the new Westpark industrial park in Ghana, which resembles Caracol, the failed Haitian industrial park, in several important respects. Clinton and the Clinton Foundation championed the Haitian project, which was promised to create 65,000 new jobs in Northern Haiti, but, according to the U.S. Agency for International Development, has only generated about 6,200.

The BlackIvy Group did not respond to a request from TheDCNF for comment. The Clinton and Sanders campaigns, as well as the AFL-CIO, also did not reply to DCNF inquiries.
