MK (National Union) Prof. Aryeh Eldad on Wednesday announced in December, he will be hosting an anti-Jihad summit under the banner “Standing Up to Jihad”.

The summit will be held in Jerusalem on December 14-15, 2008, and Eldad plans to host 30 European parliamentarians from Belgium, Denmark, Italy, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland and the U.K., who oppose Islamization as well as immigration policies that disrupt social cohesion.

“Facing Jihad: a Lawmakers’ Summit is the first opportunity for a newly-formed coalition of parliamentarians to assist each other in fighting the transformation of the European continent into Eurabia and in safeguarding the State of Israel as a Jewish nation and a beacon of democracy and freedom in the Middle East,” said MK Eldad. “Islamic expansion must be stopped. If Jerusalem capitulates, then Europe will be next.”

In addition to sessions expected to be led by European Parliamentarians and internationally renowned intellectuals, MK Eldad plans to hold a screening in the Knesset of Fitna, the controversial film by Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders about the reality of Islam. Mr. Wilders will also speak at the conference.

“I look forward to screening Fitna at the Facing Jihad summit in Jerusalem,” said MP Wilders. “Europeans are already contending with Islamic expansion in their own backyards, and the time has come to discuss these threats with other like-minded legislators in Europe.”
