Minarets Swiss

20 SWISS LEFTIST INTELLECTUALS PLAN OVERTURN OF SWISS BAN ON MINARETS…….

Just like Brussels, the Leftists can’t respect democracy, they will attempt to thwart the will of the people who dare vote contrary to their world view.



[The Libyan leader, speaking at an academic ceremony on Saturday in Zliten, 160 kilometres (100 miles) east of Tripoli, said Muslim countries now had an argument not to allow the building of new churches. ‘I don’t think anyone in the Muslim world will from now on authorise the construction of a church,’ Kadhafi said.]

NOTE: That’s rich. Islamic lands have discriminated against Christians in their lands ever since Islam charged into the formerly Christian lands of the ME and Maghreb. Most requests for repair, let alone permission to build, are not granted. There are no churches in Saudi Arabia.

Liberals plan to overturn Swiss minaret ban

Swiss liberals are considering a new referendum to overturn the ban on new minarets.
Club Helvetique, a group of over 20 Swiss intellectuals, will draw up an action plan to overturn the ban, which has drawn widespread criticism abroad and prompted hundreds of people to take to the streets this weekend in Zurich, Basel and Berne.
“A new initiative is the most democratic way of achieving this,” constitutional lawyer Joerg Mueller told Sonntag.
Voters adopted the ban in a referendum a week ago, defying the government and parliament which had warned the right-wing initiative violated the Swiss constitution, freedom of religion and a cherished tradition of tolerance.
Two complaints questioning the legality of ban had already been handed to Switzerland’s Federal Court, Sonntag said.
Libya leader Gaddafi said the ban had done a great favour to al Qaeda militants, who would use it to attract recruits in a holy war against Europe, news agency SDA reported.
“The activists are now saying: ‘we told you that they are our enemies…join al Qaeda and declare jihad on Europe ‘.”
Politicians from the SVP, Switzerland’s biggest party, and the conservative Federal Democratic Union gathered enough signatures to force the referendum on the initiative which opposed the “Islamisation of Switzerland”.
Its campaign poster showed the Swiss flag covered in missile-like minarets and the portrait of a woman covered with a black chador and veil associated with strict Islam.
“The Club Helvetique is an association of bad losers,” Sonntag reported SVP Vice-President Christoph Blocher as saying.
