Good Friday in Rome
Gallia Watch and other French and Italian sources have put together a disturbing article on what transpired on Good Friday in Rome at the Piazza Venezia, which faces the monument to Vittorio Emmanuele, a central point in the city. This is not an expression of freedom of religion. It can only be construed as a deliberate provocation. The French video points out that this was an illegal demonstration.

The message of those who organized this event is clear; we are taking over.
"È arrivato il momento di scegliere se riscattarci per essere pienamente noi stessi, orgogliosi delle nostre radici giudaico-cristiane, credenti nei valori non negoziabili, certi delle regole che si sostanziano di diritti e doveri, oppure proseguire nella china suicida del relativismo, del buonismo e dell’islamicamente corretto che ci ridurrà a diventare schiavi di Allah senza più certezza del bene della vita, della dignità e della libertà."
"The moment has arrived of choosing to redeem ourselves to be fully ourselves, proud of our Judeo-Christian roots, believers in values that are non-negotiable, certain of the rules that are sustained by rights and duties, or to continue along the suicidal path of relativism, do-goodery, and that which is Islamically correct, which reduces us into becoming slaves of Allah without any more certainty of the benefits of life, of dignity and liberty."

Gary,
Just FYI I have added an update to this post. Pope Benedict gave a speech on Easter Sunday urging people of good will to welcome the refugees from North Africa. I do not wish to denigrate the Pope. He has his mission. But I can't help wondering what prompts him to say this. Is he in an "Ivory Tower" as one of my French readers suggests? Is he afraid? Is he under the power of Vatican II?
Unbelievable!
And some want to let them build a mosque at ground zero! Why would any American choose to discount what has happened in Europe?
How long will it take before Times Square looks like this picture? Or the capital? I expect the White House will be the soonest as long as the current occupant is there.

This presentation is a jumbled mess. Did you really mean to convey that the organizers of what appears to be Muslim prayer are "proud of our Judeo-Christian roots"???
If not, try to be a little less rushed and more coherent.
By they way, Christians and Muslims have taken turns being the protector or the persecutor of various Jewish populations, so don't try to build a coalition of two against three of any of the above, and pretend it has any deep historical roots.
Oh, Miggie, nobody has to "let them" build a mosque a few blocks from (not "at") Ground Zero. It's private property, and despite your best efforts, we still have a First Amendment in full force in this country. Neither you nor your allies who advocated a world-wide Islamic caliphate are going to take that from us.
