We Cannot Allow Violence From Militant Activists

The Vast Majority Of Muslims Living Here Are Peaceful Citizens. Unfortunately, However, We Also See Religious And Political Fanaticism Among Muslim Groups In Germany.

On September 11 Last Year International Terrorism Entered A New Dimension.

We Can No Longer Apply The Classic Criteria To Clearly Determine Whether And When We Should Use Military Force. We Are Waging War In Afghanistan, For Example, But It's An Asymmetrical War Where The Enemies Are Criminals Instead Of Soldiers.

This Fanaticism Is What Feeds Terrorism. And This Is Precisely Why Muslims Must Play An Active Role In Opposing Hate Sermons And Incitement To Terrorism And Extremism In Their Mosques.

The Military Has Been Tremendously Important In The Past During Catastrophes And In Protecting The Population. But It Shouldn't Become An Auxiliary Police Force.
