The Queen Defers to Islam
November 29, 2010
FROM The Daily Mail:
Shoeless and wearing a beekeeper-style shawl and hat, the Queen walked across the world’s largest carpet last night as she met Islamic students in Abu Dhabi at the start of her five-day state visit to the Gulf.
No sooner had the Queen and Prince Philip stepped off their chartered British Airways flight from London than they were taken straight to the Sheikh Zayed Mosque, the country’s largest.
The floor of its main prayer hall is covered in a 35-ton carpet which took 1,200 Iranian women two years to stitch by hand.

A fish rots from its head. And the rot in Britain begins with its current monarch, who not only has done nothing to arrest the Islamization of her kingdom, but is leading the way to it.

From my translation of the Qur’an, Surah 16
“1. (Inevitably) comes (to pass) the Command of Allah. Do not then seek to hasten it. Glory to Him, and far is He above having the partners they ascribe to Him!
2. He sends down His angels with inspiration of His Command, to such of His servants as he pleases, (saying), “Warn (Man) that there is no god but Me, so do your duty to Me.”
3. He has created the heavens and the earth for just ends. Far is He above having the partners they ascribe to Him!
4. He has created man from a sperm-drop; and behold this same (man) becomes an open disputer!”

If Europeans, and the British as well, had not turned into such cowards in their own homelands as they fail to deal with the Muslim invasion, Queen Elizabeth would not be looked upon as weird simply because she acknowledged traditions while visiting in a foreign country. Western leaders always did this as a matter of form when visiting abroad — leaders’ wives wore longer skirts and covered their heads. And nobody made a fuss of this behavior, or viewed it as some kind of acquiescence to an alien power. It was simply considered respect for another tradition.
It is because the cowardly Anglo-Euros are submitting to rule by Muslims within their own Western nations that any degree of respect accorded to another religion’s rules is now looked upon as tantamount to treason. These Euros won’t stand up as men, as Muslims desecrate sacred sites in places like Avignon, but they sure can whine about mistreatment at the hands of Muhammad’s followers. Wait till they see the real mistreatment that’s on its way when Muslims become half the population, and seriously set about altering traditions within Western borders. And Europeans will have no one to blame except themselves.

Was it customary in the past for British royalty to enter mosques on state visits to Muslim countries?
