Muslims are establishing “microstates” in portions of European cities where non-Muslims are warned not to enter and Sharia law prevails. In Muslim-controlled neighborhoods of cities in England, France, Belgium, Holland, Germany and Sweden, non-Muslim residents and businesses are harassed, police and firefighters are pelted with stones and streets are barricaded to prevent non-Muslims from entering. European host-countries have effectively lost control in these areas and are often unable to provide basic public services.
A sign in East London declares, “You are entering a Sharia controlled zone: Islamic rules enforced.” These “no-go” areas “are the by-product 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” (Gatestone Institute, August 22, 2011). The take-over by Muslims of parts of European cities has been described as an “occupation without tanks or soldiers” (ibid.).
What we are witnessing today in Europe is merely the latest chapter in the centuries-long effort by Islamic forces to gain control of Europe and eventually the world. Bible prophecies have long foretold an end-time struggle between the king of the South (Muslim forces from the Middle East) and the king of the North (a European Beast Power—see Daniel 11:40-44). Moses warned that because of the sins of the Israelite peoples, “the alien who is among you shall rise higher… and you shall come down lower” (Deuteronomy 28:43)—which is what we are seeing today.
