[Daily Caller] An Egyptian-born Italian member of the European Parliament has declared mosques are terror factories and should be eliminated.Magdi Allam, a convert from Islam to Christianity, said the idea of moderate Islam is a complete myth, Express reports.
"If the Muslim governments warn that mosques are ’dens of terrorism’, we can not behave more Islamic than the Islamists, granting blindly the mosques to the Islamic militants," Allam said, pointing to the example of Tunisia shutting down 80 mosques following a devastating Islamic State attack in Sousse, which left 45 tourists dead.
For Allam, deporting terrorists isn’t an adequate solution to the problem of Islamic terror, because mosques will just produce replacements. Moreover, sponsoring mosques for the purpose of using moderate Islam to crowd out radical Islam is delusional, because, "there is only one Islam because there is only one Koran and one Muhammad."
