Good. [DW] Germany's governing conservative bloc is planning to cut all government ties with groups suspected of supporting political Islamism, according to a report in Die Welt. Large Moslem umbrella organizations may be affected.The parliamentary group of Germany's ruling conservative bloc has called for an end to cooperation with groups suspected of supporting political Islamism, the newspaper Die Welt reported on Tuesday. The bloc, made up of Angela Merkel ...chancellor of Germany and the impetus behind Germany's remarkably ill-starred immigration program. Merkel used to be referred to by Germans as Mom. Now they make faces at her for inundating the country with Moslem colonists... 's Christian Democrats (CDU) and their Bavarian sister party, the Christian Social Union (CSU), proposed cutting all subsidies, support and cooperation with Islamist groups being monitored by Germany's domestic intelligence agency: the Office for the Protection of the Constitution. Christoph de Vries, the parliamentary group's speaker on religious communities, confirmed the proposal on Twitter. "The CDU/CSU will take up a clear position in combating political Islamism," de Vries wrote. "No tolerance for intolerance. That is the clear message of the paper. There can be no religious discount on our core values." WHICH ORGANIZATIONS WOULD BE AFFECTED? The paper produced by the parliamentary group was seen by Die Welt.

The CDU/CSU paper also put forward a call for the publication of foreign financial flows to mosque associations. "We respect the freedom of belief without compromise, but we will not allow foreign governments or forces of political Islamism to develop a system of rule in Germany under the cover of religious freedom that subjects society, politics and culture to Islamic norms," de Vries told Die Welt. De Vries compared the treatment of political religious groups with that of organizations on the the left- and right-wing extremes. "The enemies of our constitution ... cannot also be partners of the state," he said.
