The Islamic fundamentalist group Shariah4Belgium has been criticized for its aggressive stance and lack of inter-religious tolerance. Belgian Muslims say they feel threatened by the group’s ideology, which they fear scares people away from Islam.
Shariah4Belgium came under the spotlight after it opened the country’s first Sharia court, a move which put it on a collision course with the country’s nationalists. The Belgian far-right Vlaams Belang party opposes the Muslim courts, maintaining that all legal disputes should be addressed in the country’s civil judicial system. Leading member Filip Dewinter claims Shariah4Belgium’s leadership said he should be killed for expressing his views.
In January, an Antwerp prosecutor recommended two years in prison and a fine of 550 euros for the group’s head, Foaud Belkacem, for inciting hatred and violence against non-Muslims. That is in addition to 14 police court convictions, and criminal convictions for robbery, defamation and violence.
Shariah4Belgium believes that its role in the Belgian community is to express its believes and values, but local Muslims say that the group’s aggressive stance creates a false and frightening image of the country’s Islamic community.
RT’s Tesa Arcilla has been in Belgium to investigate the story.

What ! No blame for the U.S.? Seems like everyone posting on this blog finds some way to blame the U.S. - Fact is that this small micro-cosim paints a picture of the frustrations Muslims feel living in Europe - Particularly Beligum -- One of the most racist countries in Europe- Check their record in Africa - including the cupability of Rawanda - Islam is not a religion of integration full stop - Though they do not want to live in thier countries of origin - they also do not want to intergrate into Western Societiy - The cake and eat it too mentality.. But so long as people are willing to allow these types of groups to go around spewing BS nonsense - sticking a camera in their faces - then of course they will act like idiots - whay not - Beligum is a boring wet and tiny little country - and due to the fact that these guys don't get to have sex until they are married - must be a tough exsistence - 9 out of ten that all of them have a long list of bookmarked X x 3 pages .. and a huge bottle of baby oil ... I for one am a firm believeer that if you don't like a place - LEAVE!.. plenty of air planes back to the holy land. poor saps
Reminds me of 9/11 ,when some Zionists dressed as Arabs,dancing on top of a van,celebrating the genocide.What you see is a propaganda by the opposition party in Belgin,in order to promote Islamophobia in the country.Typical Zionists plot.I bet you none of them is even a Belgian Muslim.Sharieh laws are even rejected by Muslims everywhere in Middle east, ,when they realized,behind every person who insists on sharia`s law into constitution,is a MI6 agent.That also proves,Belgian economy is so sheety,that they have to resort to such measures.







Yes, forget the hate in the Koran, forget the hate and slaughter perpetrated by their warlord "prophet" who married a nine year old girl, forget the spread of this evil "religion" by the sword and the countless millions butchered by Muslims as their invading armies fell upon peaceful socities like wolves, forget the sex slavery of non-Muslim women so that muslim men can keep muslim women hidden behind veils, forget the global terror inflicted by Muslims on ALL religions, and forget the mass, organised criminality engaged in by huge numbers of Muslim immigrants (who were not invited - but were forced upon people by liberal elites).
Forget all of the above and more - and say "the Jews did it." There's no getting through to Jew baiting, anti-semitic, IslamoNazi loving wackos.
One final though, I suppose "the Jews did it" in Southern Sudan when for years, Arab Muslims, raped, tortured, pillaged and committed genocide against the Christians and people of traditional African belief systems as well? - Yeah, "the Jews did it" - just keep telling yourselves that as you foam at the mouth about how much you hate Jewish people.
