SWISS and the Minarets

 The Swiss people decided at the weekend to ban the building of minarets in the country.  Switzerland?s direct democracy means that it is citizens who have the last word on important political decisions. At the weekend Swiss voted, with a majority of 58 per cent, to accept a ban on future minaret construction.this made a lot of critics from,and the Islamic socaity refused this decision , However the Swiss with this decision did not refuse the moslem or their religon ,this is just the shape of the building, so to say it has nothing to do with discrimination as they did not avoid them to pray .. on the other hand Christians are having difficulties to build or repair a broken wall in their chusrches in there own country and if the meet to pray or sing their hymns together they are attacked by the police ...and what about Saudia Arabia nobody even is allowed to carry a bible!!!!! 

 
Worthwhile to mention that very near to Swiss it happened that the Germans had some troubles with the minerette loud speaker which is not allowed all over and was agreed upon before bilding the minarete...
