As many as 60 Turkish imams and their families face expulsion from Austria and seven mosques are due to be closed under a clampdown on what the government has called “political Islam”.
Austria’s chancellor, Sebastian Kurz, said the country could no longer put up with “parallel societies, political Islam and radicalisation,” which he said had “no place in our country”.

SIXTY Imams for SEVEN mosques? Is that like seven churches having sixty pastors or priests? Maybe it’s thier Gimmedat program. All the other jihadists support the “Imams”, so they proliferate like people getting free stuff?

Turkey’s Mass Persecution of Christians and Kurds

Yazidis, Alevis and women in the region are also being abused by Turkish authorities, and dozens of Kurdish journalists who have publicized this have been imprisoned.
This hatred of Christians and Kurds in Turkey is not restricted to government officials. It is widespread among the public, as well, and expressed extensively on social media.
The situation of minorities in Turkey and their persecution by Turkey — a member of NATO and perpetual candidate for EU membership — must be told as often and as loudly as possible.

Hahaha. That is hilarious.

The UK and Scandanavian countries should also! They are being taken over by Muslims.

Sitting in my hotel in Baden...
I highly approve of this move by Kurz.
Hopefully he can root out the Saracen cesspool next door in Traiskirchen.

It’s none of Turkey’s business what Austria does in its own country.
Turkey can then open 7 new mosques of it’s own to make up for it.
In THEIR country.

Clever to use the term “Political Islam”, as it’s dead-on accurate, but also leaves room for non-political Islam, assuming that even exists.

And how free are Christians to open and operate churches in Turkey?
