Germany’s Green Party has introduced into parliament a 24-point plan to secure the “institutional anchoring” of Islam in Germany. Party leaders say the goal of their motion is to combat “persistent discrimination and hostility” towards Muslims in the country and eliminate the “structural disadvantages” they face. Their solution: A large-scale government funding program to promote Islam in all aspects of German society.
Among other demands, the Greens (Die Grünen), the third-largest political party in Germany, want the federal government to become an official caretaker of Muslims by: Giving Muslim groups preferential treatment for taxpayer subsidies; expanding Islamic religious education in all public schools; safeguarding each of the estimated 2,800 mosques in Germany; enabling class-action lawsuits for anti-Muslim discrimination; abolishing headscarf bans; and ensuring long-term state financial support for Islamic organizations.
If approved, the wide-ranging proposals—rooted in the so-called Red-Green Alliance, a tactical collaboration between left-wing groups and Islamists, and clearly aimed at courting Muslim voters—will play into the hands of Islamic fundamentalists by furthering the encroachment of political Islam in Germany.
