Christmas Tree Display To Be Replaced By Light Sculpture
"City councilwoman Bianca Debaets believes a 'misplaced argument' over religious sensitivities has moved Brussels to put up the light sculpture. She points to the fact that it display not be referred to “Christmas” in any way to make her point.

NOTE
This has already come to America, seen at the 2012 Muslim Day Parade in New York City. Muslims are obviously more proud of their religion than Christians, not at all concerned in Brussels with any church (mosque) vs. the state. This is while in America Christians bow down to diversity, promising to not bring their religion into an elected office. Progressives in Europe obviously see nothing wrong with the statements from the Muslim elected to office, as they obviously wouldn't in America either via the progressive mouthpiece of the New York Times. - Webmaster
Overview: With over one-thousand Muslims looking on, a large group of New York City area Muslim community leaders were shocked as New York State Senator, Tony Avella, walked off the stage before it was his turn to speak.
Senator Avella seemed to have had enough of the blatant tirade of hate speech against America that was shouted, dictated, and demanded to the crowd by what was thought to be "moderate Muslim dignitaries."
They had been invited by the event's administrators to speak. Listening to the video reminds us of the Jihad agenda that is the backbone of the Muslim Brotherhood. - The United West
