Austria's Muslim youth file lawsuit against 'Islam map'
2021-05-30
[DW] The map, showing the names and location of over 600 mosques and associations in the country, has sparked outcry.

Moslem Youth Austria (MJO) is filing a lawsuit against the country's controversial "Map of Political Islam," the group announced on Saturday.

The map, showing the names and location of over 600 mosques and associations in Austria and their possible links abroad, was unveiled on Thursday.

"The publication of all the names, functions and addresses of Moslem and Moslem-affiliated organizations represents an unprecedented crossing of boundaries," Moslem Youth Austria said.

WHO ELSE CRITICIZED THE MAP?
The Moslem youth organization is not the only voice to have criticized the map that was co-created by the University of Vienna and Austria's Documentation Centre of Political Islam.

The map was "inadmissible," the Ottoman Turkish foreign ministry said in a statement on Friday. It urged Vienna to not "compile a register of Moslems," but to adopt what it termed: "a responsible policy."

It "demonstrates the government's manifest intent to stigmatize all Moslems as a potential danger," the IGGOe, Austria's Moslem representative council, said in a statement on Thursday.

Meanwhile,

Austria's Green party's spokeswoman for integration Faika El-Nagashi complained that "no Green minister or MP was involved or even told about it. The project mixes Moslems with Islamists and is the contrary to what integration policy should look like."

The Protestant Church also expressed concern. Bishop Michael Chalupka called on Integration Minister Susanne Raab, who unveiled the map, to take the site down.

The University of Vienna sought to distance itself from the map and has already prohibited the use of its logo for the map.

WHAT DID THE INTEGRATION MINISTER SAY?
Meanwhile,
...back at the railroad tracks, Little Nell tried to kick her bound feet and scream post the snotty handkerchief Scarface Al had stuff into her mouth...
Raab insisted that the aim was to "fight political ideologies."

She said it was intended to assist in combatting attitudes and positions that are in part misogynistic, antisemitic, racist or hostile to integration, without placing Moslems under general suspicion.

#2  That's about 600 weapons caches, training sites, or indoctrination centers. Good to know target locations ahead of time.
