It’s a start. Had they not permitted a hijrah, they wouldn’t have to take such measures.
As for foreign-funded imams, it’s not the funding as much as it it is the islamic texts and teachings that incite to hatred, violence and slaughter of the unbelievers. That’s the problem.
There are over 200 mosques in Austria, over nine million Muslims (8% of the population). That’s a hell of an army.

Austria Plans To Shut Down Mosques, Expel Foreign-Funded Imams
By Hanna Bogorowski, Daily Caller, June 9, 2018:
Austria’s right-wing government plans to shut down seven mosques and may expel dozens of imams in an effort to push back against radical Islam and foreign funding of religious groups.
The move is “just the beginning” of many steps towards restricting Islamic religious freedom in the country, Vice Chancellor Heinz-Christian Strache said Friday at a news conference, Reuters reported.
“Political Islam’s parallel societies and radicalizing tendencies have no place in our country,” said Chancellor Sebastian Kurz.
The government is shutting down a Turkish nationalist mosque in Vienna and abolishing a group called the Arab Religious Community that runs six other mosques, said Kurz, who is head of the coalition government made up of conservatives and the far-right.
These decisions fall in line with a law passed in 2015 that banned the foreign funding of religious groups and insisted that Muslims in Austria have “a positive fundamental view towards (Austria’s) state and society,” according to Reuters.
A spokesman for Turkish President Tayyip Erogan deemed the policy as part of an “Islamophobic, racist and discriminatory wave” in Austria.
Austria is home to 700,000 Muslims, most of whom are Turkish or have families of Turkish origin.
Kurz became chancellor in December after making a coalition agreement with the anti-immigration Freedom Party and the conservative People’s Party.

American RICO statutes (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations) were intended to go after the mafia. The acts of Islamic mullahs and jihadis clearly falls into the same pattern as the mafia. The only difference being, Islam’s claim of an oddball form of “religious legitimacy”.
The US should use the RICO statutes to, declare Islam, a criminal enterprise. Then close Islam down as it presently exists in the US.
RICO allows the government to follow crime and money. Then, arrest all, and confiscate anything in its path.
You can be sure the movement of money for jihad is widespread. You can be sure the incitement and communication between mullahs and mosques is wide spread. You can also be sure there is foreign involvement. The RICO statutes were made just for this type of activity.
Use a small army of CPAs and attorneys to investigate every jihad attack. Follow 100% of the money back to its source. Track anyone involved, in any way. Then use the RICO statutes to jail, confiscated, and shut down all involved. That includes:
M1 – Shutting down mosques involved in any jihad attack.
M2 – Arrest mullahs involved.
M3 – Follow, and confiscate, all jihad money back to its source.

Here are a few verses from THEIR BOOK:
Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies of Allah and your enemies and others besides, whom ye may not know (8:60)
Strive hard (Jihad) against the Unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be firm against them. Their abode is Hell, an evil refuge indeed. (66:9, See also 9:73)
…He whom Allah sendeth astray, for him there is no guide. For them is a penalty in the life of this world, but harder, truly, is the penalty of the Hereafter… (13:33-34)
Fight them, allah will punish them by your hands and bring them to disgrace… (9:14)
And fight them until there is no more ftna (unbelief, worshipping others beside allah), and religion is all for allah… (8:39)
We shall punish them gradually from directions they perceive not. (68:44)
O ye who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are near to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allah is with those who keep their duty. (9:123)
The Jews call Ezra a son of Allah, and the Christians call Christ the son of allah. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. allahs curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the Truth! (9:30)
Listen not to the unbelievers, but strive (Jihad) against them with the utmost strenuousness. (25:52)
O ye who believe! Take not for friends unbelievers rather than believers: Do ye wish to offer Allah an open proof against yourselves? (4:144)
O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends one to another. He among you who taketh them for friends is (one) of them. Lo! Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk. (5:51)
For the Unbelievers are unto you open enemies (4:101)

I see Austria is busily re-arranging the deck chairs on their muslum Titanic, because for every “radical” muslum cleric/imam/mullah expelled there are thousands more who are preaching the same vile muslum sacralised hate elsewhere. Because islum is inherently radical and fascist.

This article speaks well about right and responsible thinking people. It clearly deals with the realities that exist as it involves the Islamic belief system. While I support free speech and religious observance, I also believe that any belief system or philosophy that directly attacks the underlying secular system of government and proposes the overthrow and establishment of a religious theocracy must be rejected and stopped. I applaud this Austrian government for its courage to do so. The realities of these times demand such action.

There are over 200 mosques in Austria, over nine million Muslims (8% of the population). That’s a hell of an army.
Pamela needs a fact checker (or an editor). There are not nine million Moslems in Austria. That’s about the entire population of the country.
5 years ago
You might want to double check the stats Pam from what I’ve seen the total population of Austria is 8.5 million and the Muslim population is 700,000 but 8% is correct. Definitely a large army-it’s much the same in other western nations.
The good thing is that people are now finally starting to feel the danger that Muslims represent to themselves and their countries. Hopefully this trend of ‘De-Islamization’ (as Geert Wilders called it) continues.

The subjects of the UK are unarmed, therefore defenseless. We Colonials overthrew that system in 1776, and are able to withstand a modern-day Muslim or Hispanic hostile invasion. When (not if) TSHTF, these invaders had better lace up their trainers (running shoes) and head for the Mexican and Canadian borders, because WE ARE LAWFULLY AND CONSTITUTIONALLY ARMED.

The population of Austria is about the same as London, England – that is, 8.73 million so there cannot be 9 million muslims in Austria and if there were and that constituted 8% of the population then that would make Austria bigger than unified Germany … someone’s got their sums wrong

“a law passed in 2015 that banned the foreign funding of religious groups and insisted that Muslims in Austria have “a positive fundamental view towards (Austria’s) state and society,” according to Reuters.”
Because a negative view towards anything other than islam is integral to islam this law should give them the right to simply destroy all mosques and deport all muslims. Getting rid of 7 out of 200 is not going to accomplish much. Its like catching one mouse or one cockroach in a trap and then sitting back smug thinking that you solved the problem, when in fact one mouse and or one cockroach is a sign of an infestation.

Britain votes for Brexit, Poland and Hungary put their collective foot down, Italy takes a ( late ) step in the right direction, and now Austria takes a ( late ) step in the right direction. The scum behind the EU and the UN have anticipated these moves and you can be guaranteed they are not happy. I suspect that Italy is about to be hit with some pretty awful financial news ( read punishment/sanctions ) that will shake it to its core. The Italian people have rightly risen up and have voted their anger against all the lies and destruction, but Italy is a big economic force and THEY will crush the will of her people if they have to.
I believe some countries within the EU will manage an escape but it will be costly to them. THESE people have too much invested and are too close to want they have wanted for so long to give up their one and only shot at reaching their goal. Their desperation is going to mean a lot of suffering and likely death for the many seeking a return to their lost freedoms.
So yes, good for them, and let them rejoice for now, but it is only getting started and if one pokes a bear or a sleeping dog, one should expect a bit of a reaction.

Islam is always one generation away from extinction, except when muslims are permitted to live in a parallel society. This parallel society will never integrate but rather demands special protection against being insulted by western culture. Once this special protection is granted
then all other religions and political ideologies become of lesser status than the protected one.
Now the entire justice system of the host country becomes skewed to provide life and death sentences for people who put bacon on mosque door handles,
But releases muslim rapists after serving extremely lenient sentences while doxing and shaming the victims so women stop reporting sex crimes..
So sharia law becomes a latent law that determines sentencing guidelines and prosecutorial discretion based soley on the religion of the perpetrator or victim..
To keep up the charade, everytime a Jihadi attacks the Kuffar, the muslims all hold up signs protesting that they are the real victims, not the people murdered in the attack.
Their victimship status is certainly more important than any kuffar kid blown up at Manchester arena.
After awhile the public becomes brainwashed into being 2nd class citizens in their own country and simply bare their throats to be slashed everytime a muslim walks past..
