What’s wrong with the world today!

Recently, there has been a lot of media coverage on stories that regard muslims. One story was about an art gallery in Berlin(Galerie Nord) that showed a picture of the Kaaba, with the title ‘dummer stein’. Note that the Kaaba is the holiest place in Islam. Well, angry muslims made the gallery owner remove the picture. The gallery closed the exhibition but today it was reopened.

Another story, its not that unique, but certainly, it does demonstrate my point. The dutch bank Fortis has removed the piggy bank, their mascot, so they no longer give those to children. The reason: they are afraid to hurt muslim peoples feelings by using the pig as their mascot.
Fortis is not the first one to act like this.

The point? Muslims tend to rule the world. If something doesnt fit to their culture, even though they live in a western non islamic country, they make it fit. They move to our countries due to war and other tragedic sad stuff, and the idea is to integrate into the cultures of their new countries. Somehow they tend to make us fit into their cultures though it should be the opposite way around.

This tendency may not be all that clear, not yet. But it will grow in the future and Islam will get more power within our so called ‘free’ countries, where we ought to say whatever we wanted to, without having the risc of threads. Thats no longer the situation. It’s a sad world!
