Slovakia is the last EU Member State without a single mosque, TRT World reports. Previous attempts to build have been halted by politicians. The country does not recognise Islam as a religion and only have a few thousand Muslim residents. Islam must not be taught in schools and the 5,000 Muslims, mostly European ones, who reside in the country are not officially recognised. They account for only 0.1% of the population. In 2007, politicians changed the country’s laws so that 20,000 signatures from members were required to be recognised by the state. In 2017 they more than doubled the number of necessary signatures. Not being officially recognised poses major difficulties for the group. Among other things, they are not allowed to have official religious leaders, conduct Muslim marriages or receive financial contributions from the State, rights which 18 other recognised religions have. According to some of the country’s politicians, Islam is a serious threat. “Islamisation begins with kebab and in Bratislava it has already begun. So understand what it could be like in 5-10 years,” says MP Andrej Danko. “Every normal European, Christian or atheist fears this satanic pedophile creation of the devil,” rumbles another critical MP. According to TRT, the situation was further complicated for the country’s Muslims in connection with the 2015 asylum wave. Slovakia then used the absence of mosques as an argument not to accept any migrants. The TV channel also claims that Slovakia violates EU rights laws by not permitting the building of mosques.
Poster Comment: Hooray for Slovakia! This country joins Poland and Hungary in keeping Muslims out of their civilizations, but Slovakia wins first prize. Wake up America. We need Muslims as badly as we need Elizabeth Warren or Hillary Clinton.
