That’s the question that Tariq Ramadan will be answering on November 11th in Vienna. The Austrian Association of Academics (Akademikerbund) is sponsoring a forum at which the renowned scholar of Islam will be the guest of honor.Below is the invitation for the event, as translated by our Austrian correspondent ESW:
Islam and the European Model of Life- - - - - - - - -
Is there a Euro-Islam?
The relationship between the West and the Islamic world has deteriorated since 9/11. This is evident in the fear of terrorist attacks as well as in the problems that European Muslims of the second and third generations face. Furthermore, the differences between Islam and other religions continue to surface:
- Which of the religious rulings of the Koran are incompatible with European values?
- Where are these incompatibilities most evident? e.g. education in schools, building of mosques, religious drawings in newspapers.
- What about the role of the Austrian Islamic Association?
Introductory remarks: Franz Fiedler, President of the Austrian Association of Academics Podium: Tariq Ramadan, Islamic scholar Christian Zeitz, Vienna Akademikerbund Wolfram Eberhardt, author of the book Im Auftrag Allahs: Gläubige, Fanatiker, Terroristen Moderator: Peter Danich, Political Academy

This sounds like an unprecedented opportunity for Austrians to get to know Mr. Ramadan a little better. If I were anywhere near Vienna (and could understand German), I’d be there myself.

For marketing purposes we have decided to enrich our products with adjectives (sort of vitamins). Our potential customers might enjoy the instantanous feeling of choice and sort of home product pride feeling. (buy Bavarian, buy Japanese)
Unfortunately our recent product "Euro-communism" did not find enough
trusting customers. We therefore deeply regret that and duely apologize for losses/trauma caused to our customers by our early verbal industrialization attempts in our so dearly beloved Europe.
Test our newest product. Euro-islam was designed by the best of us and was courageously sponsored by our best wishing friends in SA! Prince Abu Camel even recently converted to our version of Islam. do not miss it!
Tariq Ramadan has been exposed by refugee from Iran, Afshin Ellian on Elsevier.nl, as a fanatic in the disguise of moderation.
His mask has been taken off and his true face has been shown, yet the media ignore this and still portray him as a moderate Muslim (a term which Afshin Ellian also questions) and supplying him with the platform to spread his two-faced lies.
Islam is as far removed from freedom as possible. Nothing will change that. Only when Muslims move away from the basic Islam they will enjoy some liberties. Liberties which there brethern in Islamic countries cannot enjoy.
Which of the religious rulings of the Koran are incompatible with European values?
Virtually all of them.
