Saudi must stop financing fundamentalist mosques abroad

BERLIN: German Vice Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel on Sunday said Saudi Arabia must stop financing fundamentalist mosques abroad which are accused of breeding extremism.
“From Saudi Arabia, Wahhabi mosques are financed throughout the world,” said Gabriel.
“In Germany many extremists considered dangerous persons emerge from these communities,” he told the newspaper Bild am Sonntag.
Gabriel, who is Chancellor Angela Merkel’s deputy in a left-right coalition, warned against alienating Saudi Arabia, a crucial player in the bid to end the Syrian war, with too much criticism.
“At the same time we must make it clear to the Saudis that the time of looking the other way is over,” said Gabriel, who is also economy minister.
Gabriel, head of the centre-left Social Democrats (SPD), urged decisive steps in Germany against radical mosques associated with Wahhabism.
“This radical fundamentalism taking place in Salafist mosques is no less dangerous than right-wing extremism,” he said.
The head of the SPD parliamentary group, Thomas Oppermann, also urged steps against preaching that contradicts the basic freedoms guaranteed in the German constitution.
“We will prevent Saudi help in the building or financing of mosques in Germany where Wahhabi ideas are to be disseminated,” he told the Welt am Sonntag newspaper.
Wahhabism provided the “complete ideology of the Islamic State and contributes in other countries to a radicalisation of moderate Muslims,” he said, adding that “this is something we don’t need and don’t want in Germany”.
The SPD leaders’ comments were published days after Merkel’s government was embarrassed by the release of a damning report on Saudi Arabia by its own foreign intelligence service, the BND.

Bwahaha ... the Saudis have to be ultra fundamentalist, to distract from their illegitimacy.  Originally they were Gulf crypto-Jews ... and saying that in SA is the fastest reason to get your head separated.

Germany, - or any other non Muslim state - can forbid the building of Mosques.
Just like the Saudis - or any other Muslim states - that forbid the building of Churches, synagoges, temples.
Like for like. Reciprocate in kind.

But it is not going to happen. And they know it.

German Vice Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel is fooling himself.
With millions of Muslims and more coming every day, new mosques will not be his biggest problem.

Maybe there is a silver lining with this refugee crisis: it's forcing many Europeans, especially those who were complacent, to take a second look at their situation in regard to their Muslim population. I sense that so far there were too many assumptions and now the ground is falling under. It's time to enact laws that will deal swiftly and decisively in regard to Muslim extremists, who so far have been operating under the radar.

Unfortunately .. this will be Nuremberg laws.
