Wilders Prophetic Warning – to America

Geert Wilders

The previous articles in this series analyzed the prophetic implications of Geert Wilders speech to the Hudson Institute concerning the rise of Islam to various groups in the world. For the full text of Mr. Wilders’ speech, visit the People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy website.

The final section of Mr. Wilders’ speech is a dire warning for the United States.

“It is very difficult to be an optimist in the face of the growing Islamization of Europe. All the tides are against us. On all fronts we are losing. Demographically the momentum is with Islam. Muslim immigration is even a source of pride within ruling liberal parties. Academia, the arts, the media, trade unions, the churches, the business world, the entire political establishment have all converted to the suicidal theory of multiculturalism. So-called journalists volunteer to label any and all critics of Islamization as a ‘right-wing extremists’ or ‘racists’. The entire establishment has sided with our enemy. Leftists, liberals and Christian-Democrats are now all in bed with Islam.

This is the most painful thing to see: the betrayal by our elites. At this moment in Europe’s history, our elites are supposed to lead us. To stand up for centuries of civilization. To defend our heritage. To honour our eternal Judeo-Christian values that made Europe what it is today. But there are very few signs of hope to be seen at the governmental level. Sarkozy, Merkel, Brown, Berlusconi; in private, they probably know how grave the situation is. But when the little red light goes on, they stare into the camera and tell us that Islam is a religion of peace, and we should all try to get along nicely and sing Kumbaya. They willingly participate in, what President Reagan so aptly called: ‘the betrayal of our past, the squandering of our freedom.’

If there is hope in Europe, it comes from the people, not from the elites. Change can only come from a grass-roots level. It has to come from the citizens themselves. Yet these patriots will have to take on the entire political, legal and media establishment.
Over the past years there have been some small, but encouraging, signs of a rebirth of the original European spirit. Maybe the elites turn their backs on freedom, the public does not. In my country, the Netherlands, 60 percent of the population now sees the mass immigration of Muslims as the number one policy mistake since World War II. And another 60 percent sees Islam as the biggest threat to our national identity. I don’t think the public opinion in Holland is very different from other European countries.

Patriotic parties that oppose jihad are growing, against all odds. My own party debuted two years ago, with five percent of the vote. Now it stands at ten percent in the polls. The same is true of all similarly-minded parties in Europe. They are fighting the liberal establishment, and are gaining footholds on the political arena, one voter at a time.

Now, for the first time, these patriotic parties will come together and exchange experiences. It may be the start of something big. Something that might change the map of Europe for decades to come. It might also be Europe’s last chance.

This December a conference will take place in Jerusalem. Thanks to Professor Aryeh Eldad, a member of Knesset, we will be able to watch Fitna in the Knesset building and discuss the jihad. We are organizing this event in Israel to emphasize the fact that we are all in the same boat together, and that Israel is part of our common heritage. Those attending will be a select audience. No racist organizations will be allowed. And we will only admit parties that are solidly democratic.

This conference will be the start of an Alliance of European patriots. This Alliance will serve as the backbone for all organizations and political parties that oppose jihad and Islamization. For this Alliance I seek your support.

This endeavor may be crucial to America and to the West. America may hold fast to the dream that, thanks to its location, it is safe from jihad and shaira. But seven years ago to the day, there was still smoke rising from ground zero, following the attacks that forever shattered that dream. Yet there is a danger even greater danger than terrorist attacks, the scenario of America as the last man standing. The lights may go out in Europe faster than you can imagine. An Islamic Europe means a Europe without freedom and democracy, an economic wasteland, an intellectual nightmare, and a loss of military might for America — as its allies will turn into enemies, enemies with atomic bombs. With an Islamic Europe, it would be up to America alone to preserve the heritage of Rome, Athens and Jerusalem.

Dear friends, liberty is the most precious of gifts. My generation never had to fight for this freedom, it was offered to us on a silver platter, by people who fought for it with their lives. All throughout Europe American cemeteries remind us of the young boys who never made it home, and whose memory we cherish. My generation does not own this freedom; we are merely its custodians. We can only hand over this hard won liberty to Europe’s children in the same state in which it was offered to us. We cannot strike a deal with mullahs and imams. Future generations would never forgive us. We cannot squander our liberties. We simply do not have the right to do so.

This is not the first time our civilization is under threat. We have seen dangers before. We have been betrayed by our elites before. They have sided with our enemies before. And yet, then, freedom prevailed.

These are not times in which to take lessons from appeasement, capitulation, giving away, giving up or giving in. These are not times in which to draw lessons from Mr. Chamberlain. These are times calling us to draw lessons from Mr. Churchill and the words he spoke in 1942:

‘Never give in, never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.'”

Prophetic Gleanings

The “land of the free and the home of the brave” may well not exist as we know it today to stand up to the challenge of Islam. Economic debt and looming bankruptcy is quickly making the Unites States subjects to other nations as its wealth passes to China and the Middle East. Internally, the U.S. is deeply divided ideologically. Mass immigration of millions of illegal immigrants is changing the very fabric of society. Judeo-Christian values have finally been overturned for the majority and moral rot infects every corner.

Because of the moral decay and the pressuring of Israel to give up its land, the United States is experiencing judgments in an attempt by God to bring the nation back to repentance. The only true hope for America to hold together is national repentance, which only a miracle at this juncture will bring about.

For America not to repent, the judgments of God will continue to befall this nation. God lays out His methods of national judgment in Deuteronomy 28:15-48. The passage reads like a detailed description of American society: cities in chaos, youth in bondage, government in confusion, a foreign policy in retreat, rampant disease, epidemic divorce, agricultural calamity, and increasing foreign domination. Should the nation still refuse to repent and heed God’s judgments, it will ultimately reach a point where God will deliver it from discipline to doom. Ezekiel 14:12-20 further teaches that when this terrible point is reached, the nation cannot be saved even by the prayer of the Righteous!

Whatever the Unites States looks like by the time of the Tribulation, it will eventually be incorporated into the Antichrist’s future world empire.

Pray that the United States will rise again during Christ’s Millennial Kingdom, cleansed and pure. As Jeremiah 3:17 foretells, “At that time they will call Jerusalem The Throne of the LORD, and all nations will gather in Jerusalem to honor the name of the LORD. No longer will they follow the stubbornness of their evil hearts.”

  • We don’t have the intestinal fortitude to fight Islam, either.

    I love reading about and watching movies and shows about World War 2. Dan Rather was right when he called them the “Greatest Generation.” These men gave up EVERYTHING to fight a growing evil in the world. Before Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, we barely had an army, and less than five years later we took the European and the Pacific Theaters.

    At home, women went to make ammunition, tanks, airplanes, and uniforms. The general population gave up EVERYTHING for the war effort. People planted gardens because food went overseas. They gave up fun. They gave up clothes.

    Now we gripe and complain about the “cost” of the War on Terror. We don’t have the guts to fight a growing evil in the world. We are too self-centered, too “me” oriented (this includes the modern church), to care.

    I love my country. I have a huge US flag on my wall. But we are weak.

    If we want God to bless the USA, then the USA NEEDS to bless God first. We NEED revival if we want success.

  • Nathan Said, “Whatever the Unites States looks like by the time of the Tribulation, it will eventually be incorporated into the Antichrist’s future world empire.”
    Nathan, no it will not. The Antichrist will not control the whole literal planet. Ten nations, and that is all God allows Antichrist to control.

  • We’re too politically correct to stand up against the evil antichrist religion of Islam. Pretty sad actually. It is becoming clearer and clearer that the Antichrist will indeed be a Muslim, it makes perfect sense.

  • Up until recently I was a Muslim anti-christ advocate until I did a little research on Daniel 11:38. The word translated “forces” in the KJV and “fortresses” in the NASB comes from the word Ma’owz which can mean “human protection.” It has no connotation of warfare or jihad, but of protection. The use of this word tells me the Anti-christ must be a secular humanist.

    The word translated “god” is ‘elowahh which means either God or false god. We can probably safely assume that God is not the right interpretation. So that leaves us with a false god. What could be a more false god than man?

    The word “honor” is kabad, meaning to bring honor or honor to oneself. So a very literal translation could be: But instead, he will bring glory to the false god of humanity, a god his fathers did not acknowledge as being a god; he will bring glory to himself with gold, silver, costly stones and treasures.

    This isn’t to say that he isn’t of Arab descent, but a practicing Muslim? I now think differently.

  • hi son of thunder,

    son of thunder,

    I think you’re using a condensed Hebrew lexicon. Let’s look at a more complete definition of the words in question.

    The word you refer to from Dan 11:38 (H4581 – ma`owz) is from H5810. “ma`owz” means “a fortified place; figuratively, a defence:–force; fort(-ress), rock, strength(-en), (X most) strong (hold).” Though it can figuratively mean “human protection” it is not used in such a context.

    H5810 `azaz aw-zaz’ a primitive root; to be stout (literally or figuratively):–harden, impudent, prevail, strengthen (self), be strong.

    There is a reason why every translation uses the word “fortresses” or “forces”. Look at the context of Daniel 11:38, what the Antichrist does he accomplishes by force.

    I agree that the word for “god” refers to a false god. If he is Muslim, the Antichrist’s false god is Allah.

    H3513 (kabad) means “glorify, be (make) glorious (things), glory, (very) great, be grievous, harden, be (make) heavy, be heavier, lay heavily, (bring to, come to, do, get, be had in) honour (self), (be) honourable (man), lade, X more be laid, make self many, nobles, prevail, promote (to honour)”

    Whether he brings honor to himself by using force or brings glory to his false god in his evil endeavors is moot. The end result is still the same — the Antichrist promotes his false god and brings legitimacy in the eyes of his followers to both him and “strengthens” their false god Allah.

    Now, how could a good Muslim possibly exalt himself above all that is called God? All he would have to do is either claim to be the Mahdi (or perhaps claim to be indwelt with the spirit of Mohammad. Just look at the name Mohammad — it means “The Most Praised One”). He could claim or be declared to be the Mahdi, who is exalted by Islam to be above all of creation and is claimed by Islam to sit in the Temple of God in Jerusalem. The Mahdi in Islam has titles that only belong to God. (Dr. G. F. Haddad, Living Islam, The Prophetic Title: The Best of Creation). To claim to be the Mahdi is to exalt himself above Yahweh the God of Israel. His use of force will solidify the title of Mahdi in the eyes of his followers.

    Walid Shoebat writes, “The Mahdi, like Muhammad, exalts himself above all that is called God. In other words, he gives himself titles that only belong to God. The II Thessalonians 2 text is perfect and no serious mind can deny — it does match Islam’s deification of a man.”

  • I’m so happy to know that at the end of all this scary stuff , we win! That is if we attain to the first resurrection I guess : ) Are you ready to give your life for the witness of Christ? I am, why not? I’d rather die for something than die for nothing and if I’m going to die why not die in the service of the King? Probably gonna have to die anyway, may as well be for the grandest cause in history. My concern is for my kids and grandkids though;you know, our loved ones. That’s what troubles me. I’m not sure my family, nuclear and extended, understands the gravity of the situation in the earth. My heart yearns for them.
