SWISS FOREIGN MINISTER: MINARET BAN WILL INFLAME MUSLIMS

She would rather we just appease them, Neville Chamberlain style:

A decision by Swiss voters to ban the construction of minarets poses a risk to Switzerland's security, the country's foreign minister says.

Micheline Calmy-Rey said the Swiss government was "very concerned" about the ban, adopted by voters on Sunday.

"Each limitation on the co-existence of different cultures and religions also endangers our security," she told the European security body, the OSCE.

A top UN official has called the ban "clearly discriminatory".

Navi Pillay, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, said the ban was "deeply divisive" and at odds with Switzerland's international legal obligations.

Of course, what is truly "deeply divisive" is the fact that moderate Muslims do not organize themselves and put up a fight against the Radicals in their midst.

As things are, it's almost as if there are no moderate Muslims.
