‘No need for new Muslim mosques in Russia’
A nationalist organization has
criticized a proposal to construct more mosques in Russia to accommodate an
influx of immigrants arriving from Muslim countries in search of employment. "This approach is not totally correct,"
Aleksander Belov, chairman of the Russkiye national movement, told reporters on
Tuesday. "It is necessary to decide
once and for all whether Russia will turn into an Islamic state or it will
remain a secular state, where foreign immigrants arrive, find jobs and leave
after their work is finished."
The Chief Mufti hinted that it
could be an undesirable situation if there are not enough official places of
worship available to the growing number of Muslims in Russia. For an increasing
number of Russian nationalists, however, that seems to be a risk worth taking.
Tensions between Russian natives and members of the Muslim community have been
on the rise. Moscow has four mosques for an estimated 2 million worshippers, a
shortage that has compelled Islamic groups to seek additional places of
worship.

Go Russia! Don't allow the mooz's any kind of upper hand. Actually while they are face down and booty up you should take them.
