Merkel condemns racism as Dresden anti-Islam marches grow

Chancellor Angela Merkel on Friday condemned anti-Muslim demonstrations centred on the eastern city of Dresden, saying there was "no place in Germany" for hatred of Muslims or any other minority.

In a speech at a party congress of her Bavarian allies in Nuremberg, Merkel also denounced an attack on buildings in a nearby town being turned into refuge for asylum-seekers. The structures were set on fire and daubed with swastikas.

"It is unbearable when homes of asylum-seekers are defiled, when people try to make radical slogans," Merkel said, adding that everyone coming to Germany had the right to be treated decently.

Earlier on Friday, Merkel's spokeswoman Christiane Wirtz said: "In the name of the government and the chancellor I can say quite clearly that there is no place in Germany for religious hatred, no matter which religion people belong to."

"There is no place for Islamophobia, anti-Semitism or any form of xenophobia or racism," Wirtz said of the growing Monday evening marches in Dresden under the motto PEGIDA, standing for "Patriotic Europeans against the Islamisation of the West".

If Islam is a race then so is Christianity.

First I’ve heard of these protests, but remember it was the mass marches in Dresden that weakened the East Germany to the point that a simple screw up at a border crossing caused the whole system to collapse.

Also remember who used to run the KGB in Dresden.

Hating islam is just hating sin.

It’s the “Christian” thing to do.

Islam is a supremacist political ideology, like NAZIsm.

Merkel better watch herself. She should worry about what the German people want...not the UN.

I certainly agree there is no place for hatred of any group of people or religion. But what is it about muslims that you should want them around, with their insurrectionist religion and their unwillingness to assimilate. Especially when you do not have enough jobs for locals. Why import trouble?

Evil must be driven from Europe. Mohammadanism IS the evil.

There is no place for Islamophobia

How about Mosul, Iraq? Isn't that a pretty good place for Islamophobia? Lots of other good places, too.

Fighting back against Islam is NOT racism.

Merkel is misinformed. Since when are moozlums a “race”. Yes, they are a group of murdering anti-civilization savages, but race? I think not.

Islam is not a race, nor is it a religion. It is a seventh century socio-political system.
