Talk:Islam in Slovakia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I've edited the article (please don't use the term "Slovakia" or the newly invented place-names in historical text), but there's one more problem: I don't see that "Catholic fundamentalism" would present a negative image of Islam in Central Europe. I don't think people has such image either in Slovakia or in Hungary (see the monument of Suleyman at Szigetvár, etc.) 195.56.30.68 01:42, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
- Especially about the monument were heavy and almost violent disputes, and even US State departement Report about Religious Freedom mention such an athmosphere including referendum against Muslim settlements and Mosque-buildings. In those points Hungary, Czech and Slovakia is different from the rest of Central Europe. --Roksanna 06:31, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Not NPOV
The Slovak engagement to support USA in its war against Muslims in Iraq more alienate Slovak Muslims from their government´s policy.
This is not neutral at all. I am going to remove it, but I don't know how to change it, because I don't know of a source on how Slovak muslims feel about the Iraqi war. Jmartinez
- There is an interview (The Slovak Spectator, TSS) mit the Bratislava Imam Mohamed Safwan Hasan (MSH). He exactly said the same. --Roksanna 11:00, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- I am taking your word for it, and am showing the perception of that Imam. However, I couldn't find the article you posted. Is there a link?
- TSS: Do you think Slovakia's foreign policy alienated the local Muslim community?
- MSH: It's hard to judge, because I don't know the opinions of all. I don't think they were thrilled by this attitude.
It´s from here: http://www.slovakspectator.sk/clanok-15246.html --Roksanna 15:59, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
- It appears that the Imam response was not around alienation of Muslims, as I thought he felt, so I changed it [Rmartinez]
I seems you are wrong. At least this was exactly the question, and of course he did answer diplomatically. --Roksanna 21:36, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
