Ralph Giordano: I, a Turkish terror? The journalist, publicist and writer Ralph Giordano Nearly four years ago that the Cologne journalist Ralph Giordano in the
Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger organized debate with Bekir Alboga has expressed for the first time publicly critical of the construction of large mosques in Germany. "11 May 2007, he changed my life, "the 87-year-old Cologne now writes in a kind of balance for the
Hamburger Abendblatt .

"alarmists" (FAZ editor Patrick Bahners), "Foreign enemy" (educationist Prof. Dr. Michael Brumlik); "Turks fear", "anti-Muslim guru", "Islamophobic figurehead" (from the "taz" to the "Sueddeutsche"); at night in this dependable regularity broken German and the most imaginative death threats and insults. "Nazi, racist, Jewish pig", hate fanfares that can shock even a terrorist familiar contemporaries. So it goes for nearly four years. Deadline: the 11th May 2007, he changed my life.
"This model drawing board with more than 50 meters high minarets integration is a sign of hostile identity preservation, a false signal, a treacherous step too far forward. Between Mosque and Grand Mosque courtyard, there are many gradations without a deterrent effect of obscene dimensions as here. Therefore: "Stop the construction of the Cologne-Ehrenfeld Central Mosque,"
That was my first sentence in a dispute with Bekir Alboga, the chairman of the Turkish-Islamic Union (DITIB), on that day.
The public impact of Internet and TV was explosive. achieved within a short me hundreds and hundreds of letters, faxes or phone calls, with an equally common as startling it: "We worry share of creeping Islamisation dare, but do not express them publicly, because we then placed in the racist, neo-Nazi corner are, where we do not belong. "
It was the disturbing evidence of the effectiveness in Germany is still the meanest of all homicide-arguments can "Anyone who criticizes the construction of large mosques or even Islam, which makes the cause of the Nazis of today." Shameless is: a specific political correctness (one of "political correctness", the Left and (radical) Muslims to be politically correct thought) is overhanging debt pressure from the Nazis exploited not, not open to intimidation intended to demonstrate beyond.
I speak from my intimate enemies, the former team of German illusionists, xenophile (non friendly) one-eyed, Pauschalumarmern, social romantics, apostles of appeasement and good people from the service, that cuddly education acts as if it were the Migrations-/Integrationskomplex a multi-cultural idyll with small blemishes. Among them was subjected to playing blind man's buff politicians of the 68 generation, turn out to be incapable in the face of a new situation in the migrant scene thinking patterns of tolerance and a redefinition of value of their youth.
In their eyes I'm an "alarmist", dangerous ally of other alarmists like Necla Kelek, Alice Schwarzer, Henryk Broder and Ayaan Hirsi Ali (who gallery of honor!). In fact, I've done my part to the displaced by cowardly German politicians for decades and flattering "migration / integration" three years before the meritorious Thilo Sarrazin to bring into the public consciousness. And those who failed to denounce immigration policy, which has refused to explain to Germany with the rules and taking account of legitimate Eigennutzinteressen an immigration country.
I have not sunk to that €-would-Islam, whose blue-eyed supporters are going to reinterpret the Koran in a primer of human rights. I prefer to obey oriented säkularitätsfernen on parental control and unquestioning acceptance of religious authorities held fixed Islam, so in the real world.
Right at the cheat but the critics of criticism of Islam, "Islamophobia"-club (Islam = Islamophobia Critical) by swinging, notorious. From her mouth, we will never hear about the frightening aggression of Muslim youth in the parallel societies, on deeply internalized misogyny, anti-democratic and anti-Semitic attitudes, excessive (excessive) violence in the family and forced marriage to the unspeakable "honor killings". As little as exemplary of the tensions between a patriarchal family with Ehrauffassungen and a younger generation of Muslims growing up in the environment of a liberal order (but still represents the same medieval and anti-democratic views, as their ancestors).
means: The key barriers to integration, worthy of the name come from the Arab-dominated Turkish minority in Germany itself
In this controversy there may be no taboos.
It is the honor of the nation, all immigrants and residents from the plague of racism to protect. But this can not mean to say or to dive, where manners, customs, traditions and mentalities of the Muslim minority are incompatible with the Basic Law. The traffic tests, what could be done would be to let the silence with applause from the wrong side. I do not begrudge this triumph is not the true enemies foreign and racist.
In an unambiguous policy to them and their very different motivated "criticism of Islam" I will continue to say that I feel deeply disgusted by the sight of veiled women. And that my disgust is not aimed against them, but against a religious patriarchy that demands the disguise. I will also say more must that the Sharia law to me a distant fossil and an insurmountable obstacle on the way to integration. I Diyanet the Turkish religious authority and the hanging holes on her dripping DITIB [1] Furthermore, as the question of what is true about the rumors about the construction of nearly 200 large mosques. And that the current I Presence of Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan during his visit in Dusseldorf, as in 2008 already in Cologne, continue the call what he was and is a declaration of war on the integration and the German majority society.
[1] = DITIB Turkish-Islamic Union for Religious Affairs, which operates hundreds of DITIB mosque associations. The Ditib also operates according to its own data on 800 (!) Mosques in Germany, including such important as the Sehitlik mosque in Berlin-Neukölln, the central mosque being built in Cologne-Ehrenfeld and the Merkez Mosque in Duisburg-Marxloh.
I will not continue to have to consider whether that what I write, like radical Muslims or not. Where are we, that we kneel before those of local imams apparently always retrievable anger and Empörungskollektiven between Istanbul and Jakarta (Indonesia), as it has presented to us, the dispute over the Muhammad cartoons?
Although Patrick Bahners indignant about shows that I would designate the chairman of the Central Council of Muslims in Germany, Aiman A. Mazyek, because he has publicly declared the constitution and Sharia compatible, I confirm my understanding of a militant democracy in this opportunity to express here once again. Finally, the
was End offered a potential blackmailer, whose slogan, "Anyone who criticizes Islam, who lives dangerous" also afflicts me periodically (not that I would do him the favor to remove my number from the phone book).
would rather write, I continue to oppose that and, say what I want to teach in my old age to fear, an Islam that owes us today to prove whether it and its legal system is compatible with democracy, human rights, freedom of expression, for freedom of religion, pluralism, and this all, the equality of women.
The mosque is the symptom, the problem of Islam!
And there are Muslims who explain that. Thus the famous Turkish writer Zafer Senocak [2], with no more than two sentences, but have the explosive force of a cultural bomb: is willing "Hardly an Islamic scholar, let alone a pious layman and capable, the core issue in the thought structure of the beliefs to see. If you are not ready for critical analysis of their own tradition, to a relentless confrontation of their beliefs with the reality of the modern "
[2] See also:.
Zafer Senocak: The terror comes from the heart of Islam This complements fearless Abbas Baydoun, longtime features editor of the Lebanese daily newspaper As-Safir: "When us a lot of call for excuses not to look in the mirror, to spare us the sight of a fearful face, the face of another Islam, the Islam of isolation and of arbitrary power that is becoming gradually the upper hand and soon, as we steer the height of delusion, will be our real face. "
here any Muslims end of it, the responsibility for self-inflicted ills and abuses of" delegate to Europe ", the" Great Satan USA "or the" little Satan, Israel " . They decry the inability of the Islamic world for self-reflection (critical self-analysis), it's here the elite's own it had been established as the cause of the crisis of Islam. Where we are now banging on witnesses who betrayed the heroic efforts of youth makes Islamic countries to free themselves from the domination of their car and kleptocrats (kleptocrats = theft of public property).
A huge revolution to mature part of the world population, the "ummah" of Muslims is about to choke on their own culture and religion-related backwardness and immobility. Of the eruptions (revolutions) of this change, we will continue to be touched directly on the screen out, by the strong Muslim minority.
In this discussion I will be there.
"alarmists, alien enemy, the Turks fear, Muslim anti-guru?" A scoundrel who calls me so!
I need me here not as an advocate of minorities shown, I have been my long life otherwise, I have even heard in my youth to a deadly threat minority.
It has always guided me my ethical weather to those who must be helped. This is also true this time, and I will try to make it recognizable to an image.
When I see children with "immigrant" (as it is now so ugly), or Ayshe Bassam, as I got used to call me , then I discover myself again and again with a thought, a single, "It is to them go well they should, damn it, go well," And who prevents or Ayshe Bassam in the realization of this vision, whether Muslim, Christian or atheist who gets it, even crucifix, her Koran to do with me, called me on the neck.
My compass this, a postscript (appendix to a text): I know the difference between another (fascist) and a democratic Germany. Only I can feel safe. Therefore, I want it to remain democratic.
Any Muslim who wants the same thing, is my ally.
