FPÖ Burgenland demands that political Islam should be banned!

A new political storm emerged in Burgenland: the FPÖ vehemently urges a "prohibition law" for political Islam. Club chairman Norbert Hofer announced during a press conference on Wednesday that a corresponding urgency application for the state parliament session on Thursday should be submitted. Hofer described political Islam as a "the greatest threats of our time" and emphasized the need for prevention measures. "There is no separation of powers and no freedom in political Islam," he said, and referred to the recent attacks in Vienna, Brussels and Villach, as evidence of this risk. The Tikok platform is not the perpetrator, but the political Islam itself, says Hofer.

comparisons and demands

A heated comparison was drawn by Christian Ries, who equalized political Islam with National Socialism. Both systems acted totalitarian, would not tolerate deviations and had a doctrinal structure, according to Ries. This throws a dark shadow on the debate and suggests that the FPÖ has been urging an urgent reform since 2016 to implement effective measures against its perceived threats from political Islam. Hofer also expressed his dissatisfaction with the Social Democratic Party (SPÖ) with regard to the current constitutional negotiations and the rejection of their proposals for cool off-phases and right of Redania in the state parliament.

The FPÖ is determined to set a signal with its urgency application and to position Austria as a pioneer in the fight against political Islam. "Today is the right time for determined action," said Hofer. How the SPÖ will react to this advance remains to be seen, but the debate could have far -reaching consequences for the political landscape of Austria, such as oe24.at and vienna.at reported.
