Two other piquant items in the report below: “The suspects are refugees from Afghanistan whose asylum applications were rejected. They have been convicted several times for drugs and assault. But they were not deported.” Why not? Would it have been “Islamophobic” to do so? Also, Leonie’s older sister was previously beaten up by Muslim migrants. […]
Austria becomes the first European country to ban the Muslim Brotherhood’s activities outright
This won’t happen in the U.S., as long as Biden’s handlers are in power. They’re actively collaborating with Brotherhood entities in the U.S. “Austria Bans Muslim Brotherhood and Sets New Standard In the Fight Against Islamist Extremism,” EU-Policies, July 13, 2021: Last week, the Austrian National Assembly passed an act targeting the activities of ISIS […]
Austria implements mandatory registration of all imams, calls for EU to do the same
Austria has implemented the mandatory registration of imams as part of a list of anti-terrorism measures. One of the most important measures includes the recognition of the religious motivation behind terrorism. Austria’s Minister for European Affairs Karoline Edtstadler also stated in reference to the new imam registry: “Most imams move through many EU countries, so […]
Austria: ‘Security authorities need to know who is preaching what in which mosque at any given time’
That is just common sense, no? How can European (or American) authorities be sure that jihad violence, oppression of women, and hatred of Jews and other infidels is not being taught at any given mosque? But this proposal will be drowned under a torrent of cries of “Islamophobia.” “Austria calls for European register of Muslim […]
Islamic Faith Community of Austria complains that counterterror measures foster ‘Islamophobia’
This same claim has been advanced in the U.S. and in countries in Europe besides Austria. In fact, one would be hard pressed to find a counterterror measure that an Islamic group did not decry as “Islamophobic,” except for those that deny outright any Islamic content to the motivating ideology behind jihad terrorism. This charge […]
Austria’s Kurz and Germany’s Merkel On Collision Course About How to Oppose Jihad Terror
Coming soon: an ideological Anchluss and silencing of the Austrian. My latest in FrontPage: Robert Spencer is a Shillman Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center. The German-language Austrian publication Kronen Zeitung reported Tuesday that Austria’s Chancellor Sebastian Kurz flew to Paris in order to “coordinate ‘on a European level’ with French President Emmanuel Macron on […]
Austria’s Kurz: Fight ‘ideological basis’ of terrorism. Merkel: It’s not a conflict between Islam and Christianity.
European leaders met in a video conference to coordinate the “fight against political Islam” and quickly made clear that their fight is foredoomed. “Kurz would like to fight above all the ideological basis behind the terror.” All right. But then Merkel “declared that terrorism is not a conflict between Islam and Christianity. ‘Every form of […]
Austria: Government to ban political Islam, shut down jihadi mosques
Expect the usual cries of “Islamophobia” and “collective punishment.” The same people who have been telling us for years that Islam has no essential political component and is perfectly compatible with Western secular government will turn on a dime and insist that to restrict political Islam is to restrict Islam itself, and is thus “racist” […]
Austria’s Kurz: ‘I expect an end to the wrongly understood tolerance in all European countries’
Kurz says: “I expect an end to the wrongly understood tolerance … in all European countries.” He also says that “political Islam” endangers “our freedom” and the “European model of life.” At the same time, however, he says there is only “one culprit” who is guilty of the jihad terror attack in Vienna. Now that […]
Austria: Chancellor says attempts to force EU countries to take migrants ‘has failed’ and ‘won’t work’
Jihad Watch previously reported that the European Commission president proposed new EU asylum rules to force member states to take migrants. Only they weren’t so new, since the EU has never wavered in its globalist agenda and favoring of the UN Migration Pact. The migrant agenda was only temporarily put on hold because of the […]
