Response to "Quebec Woman" - Letter from a non-Muslim Algerian immigrant, by Iba Bouramine
"We have not knelt in our country, yet under Islamic domination total. We have chosen exile and Quebec opened our arms. But it did not open to us. We do not dispute the presence of "other" here, but we suffer to see our friends Quebecers ethnic abide increasingly demands of the powerful Islamist lobbies and even individuals Islamists (which does not arise as such)."
Hi Sister Québécoise,
Unfortunately, we have seen worse by the intelligentia Quebec and "their" media. We have beautiful speak in the "circus" of the commission Bouchar-Taylor, we participate in many popular forums on reasonable accommodation, we have beautiful try to participate by telephone at the TV or radio broadcasts on the subject, we remain the plague that we were in our countries of origin.
The Quebec Official prefer to give a voice to people who portray Islam Quebecers a sweetened, all rose. As for us, we would not be credible because defendants want to settle past accounts with Islam on earth Quebec. We are troublemakers and a danger to civil peace and to "live together".
Whenever the media invite Islamist decided to sleep vigilance of Quebecers, they begin by presenting their CV and their functions in Quebec society. They are researchers, journalists, writers, specialists in the Middle East, university teachers, PhD holders, master's or je ne sais quoi. They know all the respect that Quebecers for diplomas, titles and pompous "sleeping functions."
Other immigrants may have also have doctorates, masters or ingéniorats, they are hardly heard because they do not seek to legitimize their diplomas or the jobs they hold. We would even traitors who want evil to our respective communities and who dénigrons without reason. We are from Muslim countries, the adjectives "Islamophobic", "xenophobic", "racist" not suitable for us to designate Quebec.
There is something else for us even when we say explicitly that we are actually Islamophobic. This term, which denotes a real fear of this terrible religion for non-Muslims in the land of Islam, we claim because it follows the instinct of conservation, we can not deny us, not we acculturer not we bring to their knees in front of this huge undertaking alienation.
We have not knelt in our country, yet under Islamic domination total. We have chosen exile and Quebec opened our arms. But it did not open to us. We do not dispute the presence of "other" here, but we suffer to see our friends Quebecers ethnic abide increasingly demands of the powerful Islamist lobbies and even individuals Islamists (which does not arise as such).
I'm not under any illusions. What happened in Europe happen here. The methodology used is the same, the approach is the same, the discourse is the same, and first results are the same, ie promising to Islamism (same of Islam). For the moment, these are immigrants who are directly and daily confronted the Islamist brutality. This confrontation is not felt among Quebecers because it is vêtit clothes of law, justice, living together, tolerance and the duty to accommodate overseas.
Personally, I do not think there is a reasonable way to combat Islamism, in its jihadist gross or under its ideological insidious form. I have always opposed a categorical NO to any attempt to m'imposer any rule or any Muslim rite of the religion. For the accusations of Islamophobia or apostasy, I reply: "Yes, I do not like that religion, I've never adopted, I would not do mine, and I do not faciliterais its expansion. I have neither to justify nor excuse me." When Quebecers will understand that there is no harm to think and say that, evil is to discourage himself and return to better feelings. You guess now why, people like me (there are thousands), will never be welcome in debates in which "everybody beautiful it is, everyone it is nice."
