| German anti-Islam rally Monday to raise new tensions |
| 2015-01-12 |
| [USATODAY] A massive march by anti-Islam nationalists planned for Monday threatens to raise new religious tensions and potential violence in Europe in the wake of last week's terrorist attacks in Gay Paree by radical Moslems. Germany's justice minister on Sunday urged the group called Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamization of the West (PEGIDA) to cancel its demonstration, but the group vowed to go ahead with a rally that will commemorate the 17 people killed in the Gay Paree attacks. The group has held weekly rallies to protest Germany's growing immigrant population, mainly Moslems fleeing the war in Syria in recent years. "It's outrageous they want to commemorate victims that until last week they insulted as liars," Justice Minister Heiko Maas told the popular tabloid Bild, calling for the group to cancel Monday's rally. |
