Germany’s Raid of Hamburg Mosque Escalates Brawl with Iran

On July 24, Federal Interior Minister Nancy Faeser (SPD) banned the Islamic Center Hamburg (IZH), charging it with propagating the establishment of authoritarian Islamic rule. As a direct representative of the Iranian “revolutionary leader,” the IZH is spreading the ideology of “Islamic Revolution” in Germany in an aggressive and militant manner, according to a statement Faeser’s ministry on yesterday.
