Christchurch, Snouck Hurgronje and the hegemony of Western countries

During Friday prayer right-wing extremist Brenton Tarrant killed 40 people in the Al-Noor mosque of Christchurch, while filming the terrorist act through a camera on his head. He then took his car to the Linwood mosque, shooting nine people dead. The director of the mosque attacked him, without a weapon, could even take his weapon, but not know what to do with it. Tarrant took his car, but was arrested by the police soon afterwards at a distance of three kilometre from this mosque.

Tarrant left on the internet a manifesto of 74 pages: The great replacement. Towards a new society. It begins with the complaint that through high birth rate and migration the Muslims take over the countries of white people and cause a ‘white genocide’. This is the biological racism of the alt-right ‘movement’ (or rather: alternative culture on the inter; term invented in 2008 by American Richard Spencer, 2008). Tarrant mentions in his manifesto Anders Breivik (Norway, 2011) who wrote (or copied!) a 1500 pages long European Declaration of Independence.
The first Muslims in New Zealand were some Chinese miners in the 1860. The number of Muslims was in 1990 still only 6.000, but has now increased some 45.000, still less than 1% of the total population of the vast country with 4,2 million people (census of 2013). About 50% declared no religious affiliation in 2013. So, New Zealand is also a highly secularised country like Western Europe.

A student of Christiaan Snouck Hurgronje wrote in 1909 in a statement attached to his doctoral dissertation:  It has to be regretted, with a view to the permanent global domination of the Caucasian race, that de Albuquerque could not execute his plan to conquer Mecca. In 1513, Albuquerque attacked Aden, thereby attempting to launch an Arabian campaign. However, the Portuguese admiral and viceroy of the Estado da Índia was not successful even in his siege of Aden. He died in 1515. The idea was never taken up again, but can be seen as symbolic of the interpretation that Iberian colonialism was conceived as a crusade directed against Muslim power, having as an ultimate goal the (final) annihilation of Islam. 
The last paragraph of Snouck Hurgronje’s great book on the Acehnese is a rare advice to the Muslims of Aceh to seek new creativity and a modern interpretation of Islam, in combination with a dream about European superiority. They should ‘frankly abandon the tenets of jihād and abide by the practically harmless doctrine respecting the last days when a Messiah or a Mahdi will come to reform the world. …  But before that day arrives the last political stronghold of Islam will probably have been brought under European influence and all less civilised Mohammedan people will have been compelled to submit to the control of a strong European government.’ (The Achehnese Vol II:351) This stronghold undoubtedly refers to Mecca and probably also to the irreal plan of Albuquerque to conquer the town in 1513.
