Edward, why would you ask if they were going to ban synagogues? They haven’t banned building mosques…. Do you even know what a minaret is?

Edward,
You clearly have no idea of what a Democracy consists. Technically and in the most basic sense, it is rule by the people. This is what happened today in Switzerland. By changing the word “Democracy” you hope to corrupt it, but unfortunately you have met an opponent who will not allow you to do so. As for “genocide” in Europe, clearly you are a devotee of the BBC or some similar propaganda organization. There is at best contradictory evidence and outright lying that accomanied the war in former Yugoslavia. (i.e., taking photographs from INSIDE fences toward the outside to make it appear that people were in pens, paying top money for “genocide” stories with the most gruesome story receiving the highest payout, and other despicable tricks which debased the entire reportage of the conflict). Finally, as for events of finance connected with World War II, it is another subject mired in contradiction and misinformation. Abuses occurred…one both sides. Moreover, it is not an applicable correlary to preserving Swiss Culture. No one has forbidden worship, only intimidation by proxy. Just as the French ban the burqa and the Americans screen turbans at airports. If Muslims feel the need to adhere to every aspect of their religion to the exclusion of secular societies and insist on infringing the rights of Civilized People, then they should return to any of a number of Middle Eastern nations that openly degrade women, stone homosexuals, rape children, and punish dissent or even disagreement by death. As for Switzerland, we will be just fine without them, thank you.

HonestMan,

Majority of Swiss Muslims are European in origin. They come from Bosnia which saw a genocide only 15 years ago. So Europe still does genocides against its minorities. It still restricts freedom of religion to its minorities.
Switzerland is officially not a democracy anymore. What is next? Are they going to ban construction of synagogues next? Are they ever going to return the stolen money and goods confiscated from Jews during the WWII?

After flying under the radar for decades, the Swiss have proven that they can act as frightened and stupid as the rest of the world.

I expect future laws will declare that all future construction be half-timbered, all clothing lederhosen, and baby boys and girls must be named Heidi.

You guys suck.

Well, since Europe has tried placating, coddling, and ignoring the Muslim threat for the past forty years it would be interesting to know just how Councilor Widmer-Schlumpf is so certain that this positive action “will have no effect.” Europeans governments have stood silent as their native peoples have been attcked, beaten, raped, gang raped, murdered, and even blown apart. Perhaps the fears of this ineffectual Councilor are more representative of her cognizance that the people of Europe will not much longer permit supposedly “representative” Goverments to dither while native citizens die. This is the first step on the long road to reclaiming our birthrights as Europeans, as Human Beings, and as the forces of Culture on a continent seemingly intent on embracing Anti-Culture as its future.
