Maldives to ban Israelis to protest Gaza war
With the world economy slowing, is now a good time to drive away paying customers?
[GEO.TV] The Indian Ocean nation of the Maldives will ban Israelis from the luxury tourist hot spot, the office of the president said Sunday, announcing a national rally in "solidarity with Paleostine".

President Mohammed Muizzu has "resolved to impose a ban on Israeli passports," a spokesperson for his office said in a statement, without giving details of when the new law would take effect.

Muizzu also announced a national fundraising campaign called "Maldivians in Solidarity with Paleostine".

#7 "The 2008 Constitution of Maldives designates Sunni Islam as the state religion. Only Sunni Muslims are allowed to hold citizenship in the country and citizens may practice Sunni Islam only. Non-Muslim citizens of other nations can practice their faith only in private and are barred from evangelizing or propagating their faith."

The Maldives are an OIC member in good standing.

All Muslim nations, including the "moderates" are condoning this abomination as a valid interpretation of Islam.

The problem is not "islamist terrorism", which is just asymmetrical warfare of the weak against the strong.

The problem is Islam's will to subjugate, exploit and enslave non-Muslims.

#8 I’ve probably said it before, but anyone visiting the Maldives should watch their six. It is, IMO, a prime location for terrorist activity. Target rich and home field advantage.
