Austria rising up against Muslim Brotherhood
Austria has started taking measures to keep the lid on dangers posed by the Muslim Brotherhood.
This is especially true in the
light of the success of this terrorist organization to infiltrate the Austrian
society, which causes anger among Austrians.
Documenting political
Islam
Among the measures taken by the
Austrian government in this regard was the establishment of a center for
documenting political Islam in Austria.
Austria pins its hopes on its
experts to defeat the Muslim Brotherhood and other extremist Islamist
organizations.
According to Austria's largest
newspaper, the Krone, the construction of the center, which started in the
summer, is almost complete.
It added in a report on September
18 that the government has also forumated the structure of the board of the
center.
Acting against
radicalism
Austrian Minister for Integration
Suzanne Raab said the center would act against radicalism and extremist
organizations.
She added that the center would
combine a host of experts in extremism.
"I am proud that the center
would attract the best minds specialized in fighting political Islam,"
Raab said. "These minds will work to defeat extremist organizations,"
she added.
The board of the center will
contain eight international experts in extremism and radicalism.
Watching the
Brotherhood closely
The new center is modeled after
another established in Austria sometime ago to monitor the far right in this
European country.
The Austrian government has
specified a preliminary budget of half a million Euros for the center. It will
work to monitor the activities of the Muslim Brotherhood and Turkish organizations
in Austria. This monitoring will include the mosques and social media sites.
The center will mainly analyze the
thinking of extremist Islamist organizations, especially the Muslim
Brotherhood. it will also document the crimes of these organizations.
