Austria to deport 60 Turkish imams and close 7 mosques

Austria’s conservative Chancellor Sebastian Kurz announced that his country will deport the imams financed by foreign countries and close 7 mosques.

Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz announced that the country will be deporting 60 imams and their families with ties to Turkey as part of the “fight against political Islam”.

Kurz said 7 mosques will also be closed and that this decision has been taken particularly in relation with children dressed in military uniforms to reenact an Ottoman era war in Turkish mosques.

The Chancellor held a press conference and said, “Paralle societies, political Islam and radicalization have no place in our country.”

One of the mosques where children were put in military uniforms is a mosque in Vienna that operates under the Turkish government. Photographs from the play where children reenacted the Battle of Çanakkale had been published on the center-left Falter in June.

These images had been met with protest from most all circles in the Austrian political class. The photographs showed children in fatigues lined up and giving military salutes while they waved Turkish flags. In another photograph, there were children lying on the ground covered with flags, depicting those who lost their lives in Çanakkale.

The mosque in question is ran by the Austrian Turkish-Islamic Union directly under Turkey’s Religious Affairs Directorate.

We should follow their lead and close all mosques and deport all imams.

The Austrians (actually the Poles) already did this in 1683. Islimes never learn.

I wish this could be done in the U.S — disallow any foreign money or contributions in kind or in cash to U.S mosques and churches.

If the governments in all Western nations took the initiative to learn what is being said and done in mosques, they could probably justify expelling a good majority of the imams and shutting down most mosques.

Great to see Austria making a start and setting an example.

Remember the Austrian girls who went to Syria to join ISIS?

They reportedly beat this one to death with a hammer:

???“fight against political Islam”???

The Plague of Islam

If the civilized world is to survive, Islam must be understood for what it really is: It’s not a religion, form of government, or anything recognizable to the civilized mind. Islam is a disease, an incurable disease of the mind that's highly contagious among the feeble minded and is now spreading among the world’s feeble minded at an epidemic rate. As with any disease, one can’t reason with this disease, negotiate with it, or treat in a manner other than how one would treat any other incurable disease.

Uh, substitute “all” for “60” and “7” and they’ll be on to something.

Enemy combatants and armories have no place in Western Society even if the combatants are called imams and the armories are called mosques.

I have no idea how many are there. The ones in the article appear to all be Turkish supported.

The civilized world must come to understand what the truth about this is. And act accordingly.

It’s a drop in the bucket, but a step in the right direction. Other countries: take note!
