Authorities in the West assume, with near-unanimity, that each and every mosque and Islamic center in Western countries is simply the Islamic equivalent of a church or synagogue, posing no security threat whatsoever, and that only “Islamophobes” think otherwise. This assumption, however, is just that, an assumption. It isn’t based on any study of what Islam teaches, or of what particular mosques teach. It is an assumption that some Western officials may someday come to regret.
“Exclusive: German Islamic center raises money for Hezbollah,” by Benjamin Weinthal, Jerusalem Post, June 22, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
The Al-Mustafa Community Center in the northern German city-state of Bremen is a major hub for raising funds for Hezbollah in Lebanon, according to a German intelligence report reviewed by The Jerusalem Post.
The Bremen intelligence agency’s newly released report in June stated, “The Al-Mustafa-Community Center supports Hezbollah in Lebanon, especially by collecting donations.”
The United States, Canada, the Arab League, the Netherlands and Israel classify Hezbollah a terrorist organization. Germany and the European Union merely designate Hezbollah’s so-called military wing a terrorist entity.
The Post uncovered the Shi’ite organization’s bank account – the Bremen-based Sparkasse. The Bremen intelligence agency, the rough equivalent to Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency), said there are approximately 60 Hezbollah supporters in the Al-Mustafa organization and “the Arab-Shi’ite association functions as a point of contact for Shi’ite Muslims in Bremen, especially those from Lebanon.”
The intelligence document did not cite the amount of funds transferred from Hezbollah supporters in Bremen to Hezbollah in Lebanon. It is unclear if Germany is currently engaged in anti-terrorism finance operations covering Hezbollah funding streams in Bremen and throughout Germany….
One photograph posted on the Al-Mustafa website shows at least 10 young children wearing Hezbollah combat-style attire in the green and yellow colors associated with the Lebanese militia, while displaying the Hezbollah flag, whose logo depicts an upraised arm grasping an AK-47 assault rifle….
