THE RISE OF ISLAMIC "NO GO" ZONES

Three and a half years ago, one of the Church of England's most senior bishops, Pakistani-born Michael Nazir-Ali, warned that Islamic extremists had created "no-go"areas across Britain too dangerous for non-Muslims to enter. His politically incorrect concern sparked a firestorm of denial and criticism.

Well, the evidence of how multiculturalism "has gone wrong" is in. [The week of August 28] Soeren Kern at the Hudson Institute documented the proliferation of such no-go zones throughout Europe - autonomous Islamic "microstates" under Sharia rule (having rejected their host countries' legal systems), where non-Muslims must either conform to the cultural, legal, and religious norms of fundamentalist Islam or expect to be greeted with violence. As Daniel Pipes puts it, "a more precise name for these zones would be Dar al-Islam" - the House of Islam, or the place where Islam rules.

In Britain, where there are already as many as eighty-five Sharia courts in operation, an Islamist group called Muslims Against the Crusades has launched an ambitious campaign to turn twelve British cities into independent Islamic states, including Birmingham, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, and what the group calls "Londonistan."

In the Tower Hamlets in East London - or as the Muslims there refer to it, "the Islamic Republic of Tower Hamlets" - imams known as the "Tower Hamlets Taliban" issue death threats to unveiled women, and gays are attacked by gangs of young Muslim men. The neighborhood has been littered with leaflets announcing, "You are entering a Sharia controlled zone. Islamic rules enforced." It was in East London, remember, that the Islamist Abu Izzadeen challenged former Home Secretary John Reid by saying: "How dare you come to a Muslim area?"

In France, there are an astonishing 751 so-called Sensitive Urban Zones (ZUS). "Sensitive" indeed: the nature of the ZUS, and chaos like the nightly burning of cars in Paris, are topics that the French media largely downplay to avoid accusations of racism or Islamophobia - hence, for example, their generic description of the immigrant gangs running wild in Paris Métro stations as "youth."

The Dutch government has released a list of forty "no-go" zones in the Netherlands. In Brussels, Belgium, which is twenty percent Muslim, police have to patrol with two police cars, to watch each other's back.

In Sweden, which an imam there has labeled "the best Islamic state," whole patches of the city of Malmö - which is more than twenty-five percent Muslim - are no-go zones. There and in Gothenburg, Muslim teenagers have been burning cars, attacking emergency services, throwing.stones at patrolling officers and temporarily blinding them with green lasers.

And where such zones have not been officially established, the process is underway.

These dangerous enclaves are, the Hudson Institute's Kern writes, "the byproduct of decades of multicultural policies that have encouraged Muslim immigrants to create parallel societies and remain segregated rather than become integrated into their European host nations." Indeed, as the scholar of Islam Robert Spencer has put it, what the Islamic supremacists want is not merely a place at the table - equal rights under the law, as previous minority groups have sought in civil rights movements - but their own separate table, utterly distinct from the manmade laws of infidels.
