Lars Hedegaard in Toronto: Sharia in Denmark


Lars Hedegaard, president of the International Free Press Society, whose comments on Islam earned him a guilty verdict of "hate speech" in Denmark, was in Toront recently on his way to New York for the 9/11 commemorations. He appeared on Sun TV's "The Arena" hosted by Michael Coren.

The short interview is in the above video, but what was startling was his information about multiculturalism, Islam, the European Union, and how these three elements have combined to create an Islamic presence, and Islamic fort, of Middle Eastern Muslims in Denmark, who live and govern with their own set of cultural and religious rules, including Sharia:

Starting around the 5:46 point:
Hedegaard: Our ruling class, those in control, whatever you want to call them, see an advantage in splitting the far too homogenous nation of Denmark, by importing people who will not integrate into society, because it's easier to control and rule a society where you're not faced with a unanimous people which share the same values.
Coren: Is it that contrived? Is it that dark?

Hedegaard: I'm afraid it is. I'm afraid it is. And even behind that you see the hand of the EU, the European Union. They've conducted this policy ever since 1973 when they entered into a compound, a compact, with the Muslim countries of the Middle East because of the fear of an oil blockade. We had one in '73, you know.

So they entered this contract with these countries, or their rulers rather, that you are free to send your surplus population to Europe. We will not attempt to integrate them, nor will we try to force them to abandon their culture or their values. We will see to it that they have the right to be governed by sharia law, basically, if they see fit to do that.
