Exibição na Europa: "Islã Faz Parte de Nossa História".

A Exibição teve que ser adiada duas vezes por conta de ataques terroristas (o de Paris em 2015 e o de Bruxelas em 2016) e teve dificuldade de encontrar um lugar pois traria controvérsia, acabou ficando em um prédio público em Bruxelas.

Realmente, o Islã faz parte da história da Europa, muito especialmente da história das guerras. No meu livro sobre Guerra Justa (Teoria e Tradição da Guerra Justa: Do Império Romano ao Estado Islâmico) eu tive que tratar muito do relacionamento de guerra entre cristianismo e Islã.

O Islã já nasceu em guerra contra todos em volta e muito especialmente com a Europa, vide as Cruzadas.

A Exibição está equivocada. Se fosse para ser séria, teria que mostrar os conflitos bélicos, o terrorismo, as Cruzadas, os mortos, e os mártires da relação do Islã com a Europa. Fatores que são, de longe, os mais marcantes na relação do Islã com a Europa. 

Aliás, como eu mostro no meu livro, países como Portugal e Alemanha surgiram exatamente de Cruzadas contra o Islã. Esses países só existem como tal por causa da luta contra o Islã. Sem falar da luta histórica da Espanha e de Santiago Matamouros contra o Islã.

A Exibição tentar exaltar o bom relacionamento entre o Islã e a Europa, um coisa que não existiu na história, como fator determinante do relacionamento. Nem os ataques terroristas que impediram a exibição fizeram com aqueles que fizeram a exibição se convencessem da estupidez do que tentam mostrar.

A Exibição, como não podia deixar de ser, é financiada pelo poder público europeu.

No futuro, possivelmente, já que, por exemplo, o nome Maomé é o nome mais comum no Reino Unido pelo quinto ano consecutivo, o Islã realmente terá um relacionamento bem mais pacífico com a Europa, porque já terá conquistado. Se é que a região se chamará Europa, pois Londres, por exemplo, já é conhecido como Londonistão.

‘Islam, It’s Also Our History!’: EU Funded Exhibition, Featuring Fake Bomb, Opens After Terror Delay

European Union (EU) funded exhibition, called ‘Islam, It’s also our history!’, has opened in Brussels after months of delays caused by Islamic terror attacks and security concerns.

The project tracks the impact of Islam in Europe throughout history, focusing on positive achievements in medicine, philosophy, architecture, and food, as well as the migrant crisis and recent terror attacks.

The exhibition includes items of historical interest, as well as “artistic” installations showing the full-face veil and fake terrorist bombs.

The project, in the EU’s capital, has cost the European taxpayer €2,500,000 according to the website of the European Commission, the unelected executive branch of the EU. A statement claims:

“The historical evidence displayed by the exhibition – the reality of an old-age Muslim presence in Europe and the complex interplay of two civilisations that fought against each other but also interpenetrated each other – underpins an educational and political endeavour: helping European Muslims and non Muslims alike to better grasp their common cultural roots and cultivate their shared citizenship.”

Isabelle Benoit, a historian with Tempora, the organisation that designed the exhibition, told AP: “We want to make clear to Europeans that Islam is part of European civilisation and that it isn’t a recent import but has roots going back 13 centuries.”

However, after the Paris attacks in November 2015 and the Brussels bombings in March 2016, authorities and organisers were forced to postpone the arrival of the touring exhibition in the city. Organisers also struggled to find a venue as many were concerned that the event would attract controversy.

The exhibition finally opened on the 15th of September at the Vanderborght Building, which is owned by the Brussels city authorities.

“Should we cancel it or at least postpone it until happier circumstances? Definitely not, we believe,” the website insists. “It is precisely because the timing is tragic that it is important to show our contemporaries the extraordinary richness of this history, which has helped to make us what we are.”

In fact, the event’s website claims that the timing of the event, during a wave of Islamic immigration and terror, is significant and some installation references the migrant crisis and Islamist attacks.

An installation by Danish artist Nikolaj Bendix Skyum Larsen commemorates migrants who have drowned attempting to cross the Mediterranean Sea, and an installation by a U.S. artist, Gregory Green, shows a Louis Vuitton case with a fake bomb inside.

The website says: “It turns out that our exhibition comes at a very relevant time in history when the meeting between Europe and Islam is witnessed by citizens from the continent in all its tragic manifestations – massive and chaotic waves of immigration, senseless terrorist violence, feelings of alienation, incomprehension and hostility.”

The opening of the exhibition comes as the EU releases a report claiming Muslims are discriminated against in the labour and housing markets in Europe due to their names and the way they dress.

A third of Muslims in Europe said they had faced discrimination when looking for jobs in the past five years, according to the report published on Wednesday by the EU Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA).
