Radical Muslims Threaten Leaders of Islamic Party

Arnoud van Doorn, leader of the Islamic Party of Unity which participates in municipal elections in The Hague said, “Jihadists and other radicals threaten Islamic parties which participate in elections.” They claim that elections are against Islam. Van Doorn said that his party’s posters are regularly destroyed by ultra-Orthodox Muslims. Also moderate Muslims who support Van Doorn are threatened. Together with another candidate of his party Abdoe Khoulni, he asked the municipality for police help against the jihad hooligans. One of the Muslims behind the boycott, Abu Uthman, said that it is theologically prohibited to vote. www.elsevier.nl/Nederland/nieuws/2014/3/Radicale-moslims-gemeenteraadsverkiezingen-in-strijd-met-geloof-1473868W/
