Salafist figures Qaasim Illi and Nicolas Blancho, via the Swiss Central Islamic Council (ICC / IZRS), are actively mobilizing to coordinate a referendum against the ban on the veil in schools in the canton of Zurich. https://www.tagesanzeiger.ch/kopftuchverbot-zuerich-izr-plant-referendum-899045903338 These people have been condemned for relaying terrorist propaganda no later than two years ago and they are trying to use the democratic system they swore to destroy to fight against secularism. https://www.srf.ch/news/schweiz/urteil-des-bundesgerichts-propaganda-fuer-al-kaida-illi-und-blancho-verurteilt How are we letting this happen ??? No child should be sexualised because of her gender at school ! The SP and Grüne aren’t defending multiculturalism but gender based religious oppression ! As the Dutch- American politician and former Somali refuge put it : “Multiculturalism should not mean that we tolerate another culture’s intolerance. If we do in fact support diversity, women’s rights, and gay rights, then we cannot in good conscience give Islam a free pass on the grounds of multicultural sensitivity. Ayaan Hirsi Ali” Or how the French author Jean Daniel put it : " Tolerance is not secularism. The first is passive, the second active. Tolerance accommodates all public manifestations of religions. Secularism defends the individual against his group of origin, the woman against the oppressive father and guarantees that one can change religion or declare oneself an atheist. With tolerance, we install communities. With secularism, we build a nation." Jean Daniel submitted by /u/HeftyStation8697
