"allowed" by who? If Saudi Arabia can have its way, why not Switzerland?
Because Saudi Arabia is recognized as medieval in its religious restrictions. If the Swiss want to descend to the level of the Saudis, then so be it.
And who are you to dictate Swiss national laws?
If you wish to be considered a civilized country, then you have to provide certain freedoms to your citizens. Certainly, Switzerland is a sovereign country and can enact "whites only" laws, but don't expect to be treated like a civilized country if you do so.
Religious discrimination is a medieval mentality. The Swiss have demonstrated their bigotry and medieval mindset for the whole world to see.
The minaret ban is not an isolated incident. A Swiss girl was banned from playing basketball with her scarf. Such a ban is not imposed by any other basketball authorities, only the Swiss.
Switzerland is not Arabia and we cannot have Islamic influence in our country's architecture.
A minaret is a part of a building. It is your medieval bigotry which sees "Islamic invasion" around every corner. The fact that Europe is hiding their religous bigotry under the guise of secularism does not fool anybody.
I am a Hindu but you don't seem Swiss Hindus demanding towers for religious hymns as it is commonplace in Hindu countries in Asia. Infact, no faith here in Switzerland has a problem with our laws except certain sections of Muslims, who don't respect the culture of their adopted countries.
All the Muslims are asking is the freedom to practise their religion and be treated like first class citizens. By targetting Islam specifically, the Swiss have focussed their discrimination onto a particular religion -- just because it happens to be politically acceptable these days.
Your argument would be more credible if the Swiss law forbade construction of all non-Christian religious buildings. It would still be bad, but it would better hide the Swiss' bigotry.
They CHOSE to come here to Switzerland. They have to adopt to our laws. If they don't like, they can leave and go back to wherever they came from. Switzerland allows freedom of worshipping but not dominance over federal laws.
Once again, if the laws violate basic human rights, then they will and should be challenged. Switzerland cannot enact laws restricing freedom of movement for black people, and then tell them to go home if they don't like it. I would be very surprised if this medieval Swiss law is not censored by the European Commission on Human Rights.
Switzerland does not exist on a separate planet. If they want to co-exist as a civilized member of this world, they have to learn to behave themselves and hold their bigotry in check.
There are Swiss Jews and other faiths as well and they respectfully follow Swiss laws.
Because Switzerland has not enacted a law specifically targetting their religion and their community, restricting their freedom of religion.
If you are so sympathetic to these law-defying Muslims, why doesn't your country call them back?
Because they are not Pakistanis; they are Swiss residents and are entitled to freedom of religion in their place of residence.
And hark next time talk when your country shows love to minority citizens. Pakistan has one of the worst records of religious discrimination that goes unnoticed in your main media.
India was recently placed on the list of countries with terrible religious persecution. Thought you'd like to know.
Yeah and you are a Saudi Arab in a South Asian disguise. I know it doesn't go into your heads but there are NON-INDIAN Hindus as well around the world, just as you are a non-Arab Muslim. And you are no one to dictate what faith I choose to adhere to irrespective of my nationality and race.
I never claimed anything about your religion. I don't give a r-a-t's a-s-s whether you believe in Hinduism or Shamanism. At issue is your bias as evidenced by your posts.
And yes, I am not hiding my identity unlike MOST so-called "ally nations of Pakistan" members here who seem to know more about Pakistan than their own countries. You want to know who I am, ask me. I am a Swiss-born national, proud of my country's achievements and capability. Our history has shown that we might be small but not weak.
My mother is an Iranian by origin and my father is of Indian-origin but both have been Swiss citizens. The only occasions I have been to India unofficially or out of work are for religious reasons.
Your self-righteous tantrum notwithstanding, the whole point of my statement linking you to India was to highlight your pro-India bias, which is amply evident from your posts in this forum. There is nothing wrong with having such a bias. I have a pro-Pakistan bias. It's simply a matter of admitting it.
Now that you have admitted your Indian connection, you have proved my point.
His previous target was Unity ..He converted that poor Afgan guy to Indian nationality
