Imam who Urged Czech Muslims to Take Up Arms is Fired

[AnNahar] The head of Prague's Moslem community who urged Czech Moslems to acquire arms after the Christchurch attack has been sacked, the Czech Moslem Communities Center said Monday.

"Our meeting on March 24... decided unequivocally to cancel Mr Leonid Kushnarenko's membership of the Czech Moslem Communities Center with an immediate effect," the Center said on Facebook.

"The reason behind this decision is the statement and acts of Mr Kushnarenko, which seriously harm the interests of... the Moslem community in the Czech Republic."

Kushnarenko had offered to help Prague Moslems obtain firearms in a video message posted to Facebook after an Australian white supremacist killed 50 people in two mosques during a rampage in Christchurch, New Zealand on March 15.

"In light of the recent tragic events I inform all our members, in particular men -- all who want... to get armed to protect their health and property, contact me and I'll help you." Kushnarenko said.

The Denik N daily quoted the Ukrainian-born lawyer as saying he made the appeal owing to "Islamophobic sentiments" in the Czech Republic.

Czech President Milos Zeman won his second term last year with strong anti-Moslem rhetoric, while the anti-migrant far-right SPD party now has 19 politicians in the 200-seat parliament.

Kushnarenko told Denik N Monday he was entitled to appeal the decision, which also strips him of leadership in the Prague Moslem community, but added that he would not.

The Moslem population in the Czech Republic, an EU member of 10.6 million people, comprised 3,358 people in a 2011 census, but unofficial estimates suggest a community of 10,000-20,000 people.

#2 Maybe they should read up on what happen to the Sudeten Germans.

#3 Five minutes ago I wouldn't have expected to ~~sympathize~~ empathize with a Ukrainian Muslim phobia-mongering lawyer about much of anything, but, assuming he and his little playmates are legal residents, I find I kinda do. Who knew Czech gun laws were so (relatively) cool? Well... most of you, probably. Lemme go check my temperature.
