The Tewhid mosque was the place “in which the Vienna assassin stayed several times and where, according to the assessment of the security authorities, his radicalization was favored.”
Yet now it has reopened. Do Austrian authorities, and authorities in France as well, really think that closing mosques for a few weeks is going to deter jihadis from jihad activity? Do they really think that the Tewhid mosque (and the mosque that was just reopened in France) will now preach loyalty to the non-Muslim government and the necessity of adherence to secular laws? They’re in for a rude surprise.
“Another arrest after the attack in Vienna – mosque reopens,” translated from “Weitere Festnahme nach Anschlag in Wien – Moschee öffnet wieder,” Junge Freiheit, April 12, 2021 (thanks to Medforth):
VIENNA. After another arrest in the case of the Islamist attack in Vienna last autumn, suspicions have been reinforced that the attacker was part of a network. As it became known at the weekend, the Austrian special unit “Cobra” arrested a 21-year-old Austrian with Egyptian roots on Friday morning.
He is suspected of having procured the assault rifle with which Kujtim F. killed four people and injured several others on November 2, 2020. The now-arrested suspect lived, like the assassin, on welfare. In the meantime, more than 20 Islamists, including those in Switzerland, have been arrested who are said to be part of a network.
The assassin also had contacts in Germany
According to the German security authorities, Kujtim F. also had close ties to Germany. Muslims in Osnabrück kept in touch with him via Facebook and Instagram until shortly before the attack in early November. The group maintained a secret prayer room and organized paintball games in Rheine, Westphalia, among other places, in order to train the fight against “infidels.”Meanwhile, the reopening of a Viennese mosque that was closed after the attack is causing criticism. The assassin is also said to have been active in the Tewhid mosque. The internal arbitration tribunal of the Islamic Faith Community in Austria (IGGÖ) decided to give the community back legal personality.
Mosque reopened
Austria’s minister of education, Susanne Raab (ÖVP), described the decision as “absolutely incomprehensible and irresponsible.” It is precisely that mosque “in which the Vienna assassin stayed several times and where, according to the assessment of the security authorities, his radicalization was favored.” In addition, the Islamic Faith Community itself described the mosque as a Salafist institution….

I wonder how much of that welfare they were on turned into zakat. And where does all that zakat money end up? A quick Google search shows many requests for donations to build new mosques in the U..S.
And why did Allah only ask for 2.5% when Yahweh wants 10%? Same God, right?

Austria: Imams of a mosque on trial in Linz for supporting the Islamist terrorist organisation IS
The trial concerning the crime of anti-state association against alleged jihadists and members of the Islamic Linz religious association Rahmet continued on Tuesday in the provincial court in the capital of Upper Austria. The Supreme Court had partially overturned the verdicts of the Graz Regional Court last year, which is why the trial is being held again. The trial was delegated to Linz because the defendants and witnesses are mostly residents of Linz.
After the main accused, the imam in the association, who had been questioned at the start of the trial the previous day, on Tuesday it was the turn of his alleged deputy as the second of the three accused. He was the secretary and gave lectures when the imam was not present. He also considers himself innocent and denied all accusations. He had designed the association’s homepage and its website in a social network. He had not known that he had placed the Islamic State flag found on the internet there. He had believed that it was only the harmless seal of the Prophet. He had always rejected IS or the terrorist organisation Jabhat al-Nusra. He confirmed that he had been involved in a Quran distribution campaign, which he described as basically “nice” because it had only had the aim of informing people about Islam.
The Linz association had never collected money for IS-fighters or their equipment, nor for questionable fellow believers in Bulgaria, he further assured. However, the accused confirmed that he had bought a telescopic sight for his brother at his request on a platform in Germany for about 200 euros and had arranged for its transport to Turkey. He had not known, however, that it could be used to upgrade a Kalashnikov rifle. He believed that the brother would sell it for profit in Turkey to earn money. He did not know whether the brother had fought for IS. He believed the brother worked in an aid organisation for Syrian refugees.
The prosecutor also accused him of having downloaded on his computer the partly brutal “44 Ways of Jihad”, an “Invitation to Jihad”, verses on “Orders to War” and a text on Jihad in Somalia. He had not distributed these in the association, the accused defended himself, nor did he support them. The representative of the prosecution also held up to him an intercepted telephone conversation in April 2014, from which he read out that he had known very well about his brother’s IS involvement. The accused described this as a translation error. The chairman of the jury court ordered a break after a discussion about the nature of the questioning.

New imam, but SAME OLD SHARIA.
LK says
The accused are clever. Our prosecutors aren’t making strong enough cases. The accused could not have lived there life without leaving tell tale signs that they are terrorist supporters and facilitators.

Austrians have failed to understand the CIVILIZATIONAL JIHAD !!!
Civilizational jihad is basically the process of creating new Medina’s wherever Muslims emigrate.
“Medinization” is the process of CIVILIZATIONAL JIHAD, in which a new Muslim enclave is created by jihadists to develop a jihadist community that can ATTACK and ISLAMIZE the surrounding regions.
“MEDINIZATION” is a process of creating a Muslim TERRORIST ENCLAVE similar to what Mohammed created upon completing his hegira (emigration) from Mecca to Medina. AUSTRIAN ELITES have totally failed to understand the hegira process that creates “Medinization”.
“Medinization” turns each host city in Austria into a ‘New Medina’, a new Islamic capital of the region. Everyone living in the new Muslim enclave or associated with it must turn into compliant supporters of Sharia and unquestioning supporters of jihad terrorism and Muslim criminality.
The population of “New Medinas” must be made complicit in crime. Criminals are much more likely to commit violence or condone it or conceal it. When a population becomes implicated in criminality, they must keep their mouths shut and protect those who are much more guilty. The ‘Medinization’ process thus turns everyone living in the ‘New Medina’ enclave or associated with it into liars and criminals.
Don’t the Austrian elites KNOW THIS? Muslims in Austria today are determined to FINISH the CONQUEST OF AUSTRIA that the Ottoman sultan abandoned in 1683 at the GATES OF VIENNA.

i want to guess this time round the mosque will be monitored untill all the jihadists within it are all memes… maybe these mosques both in france and in austria reopened exactly for the muslims who attend it to be monitored in order to determine how many of them practising in those mosques are going in with terrorism charges and how many not… i want to believe i hope… i can not guess otherwise particularly for austria that has a nationalist government and moved into the future as regards the expansion of islam….it seems like a step back but it might not be…

“…the Islamic Faith Community itself described the mosque as a Salafist institution.”
Even inside the Islam community people are critical for reopening the mosque.
Welcome to twenty-first century Europe, Muslim people, where citizens are treated like juveniles, that are yet not capable to think critical themselves, so the guardian overlord bureaucrats will decide for you: even if you know better than them.
Michael Copeland says
A mosque is a Conspiracy House.
OLD GUY says
It’s reopened because the violent training site is hiding behind, Islam is a “religion” of love and peace. Islam is the ideology of a cult that wants POWER and DOMINATION of the WORLD, Calling itself a religion gives it the ability to spread throughout the world as a virus, without borders.
