“Facing Jihad” is a summit of European lawmakers who are united in their shared belief that Islam today poses a serious threat to Western civilization.
The summit, hosted by Member of Knesset Dr. Arieh Eldad and the Ariel Institute, will focus on the principle that urgent action is required to defend traditional fundamental European rights such as the liberty of individuals, the rule of law, democracy, freedom of speech and the equality of all before the law as well as the traditional identity and sovereignty of Western nations.
“Facing Jihad: A Lawmakers’ Summit,” will take place in Jerusalem December 14 - 15, 2008.

Here's more from a FrontPage article on the Jihad Prevention Act:
Europe may soon prove a model in this regard — the unhappy case of Britain notwithstanding. This December, Israel’s Dr. Arieh Eldad, a former member of the Israeli Knesset, will host the Facing Jihad Summit in Jerusalem. The summit seeks to bring together “European lawmakers who are united in their shared belief that Islam today poses a serious threat to Western civilization.”
The idea is to create an alliance of politicians who can workshop legislation to prevent creeping Islamization, which they can then bring back to their home countries and create a voting block in the EU parliament.
The attending parliamentarians will be joined by experts on radical Islam such as Daniel Pipes and Bat Ye’or, but bigotry will not be tolerated: Eldad emphasizes that the summit will bar “neo-Nazis and racist parties” like the British National Party. “Seven countries will be represented so far,” Eldad told FrontPage.
And what of America? Eldad thought it likely that at least a few Capitol Hill politicians would attend the jihad summit. If so, Tom Tancredo might be an ideal delegate.
