German State Raids, Shuts Mosque for 'Backing IS'
2015-12-18
[AnNahar] German authorities Thursday raided, shuttered and banned a Muslim association and mosque they accused of supporting the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
jihadist group in Syria and Iraq.

Police in the southwestern city of Stuttgart searched the site and delivered a notice that the center had been disbanded and its property confiscated, said the interior minister of Baden-Wurttemberg state, Reinhold Gall.

"We do not tolerate associations that advocate the use of violence to promote religious concerns and collect donations for terrorist groups," said Gall, without reporting any arrests.

He charged that radical preachers and fundamentalist Islamists, mainly from western Balkan states, had frequented the Islamic Educational and Cultural Centre Mesdschid Sahabe.

Of about 50 people who had traveled to Syria from Baden-Wuerttemberg to join the fighting, at least 10 had been visitors of the mosque, and three of them had since died, he said.

The center had previously been raided in March, when police confiscated computers, data storage devices, smartphones and documents as evidence, said the minister in a statement.

"The association supports, in the form of the so-called Islamic State, an Islamist group that carries out religiously-motivated attacks against persons and property," Gall charged.

"Through the association, donations have been collected for terrorist groups and fighters recruited for the conflict in Syria. In addition, the association and its members glorify jihad and religiously motivated terrorism."

To roughly occur at or near the same time - ALL THATS NEEDED IS A KNIFE [or any available weapon of choice?], A LOVE FOR ISLAM, + A WILLINGNESS TO KILL LARGE NUMBERS OF INFIDELS.

#4  I think the French have discovered that mosques in their country are centers of un-French activities, and have shut down quite a few. Maybe the Germans caught a clue.

#3  They can't do that! President Obama will protest! The Lightbringer will send a strongly-worded protest! He'll bring in the Big Guns - the United Nations! The Germans will rue the day!

Yes, it's sarcasm.
