Erdogan Accuses EU of 'Crusade' against Islam
In a speech given to supporters in the western Turkish city of Sakarya, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan invoked the medieval religious wars between Christian Europe and the Islamic Middle East in the context of present-day escalating tensions between the European Union and Turkey.
"My dear brothers, a battle has started between the cross and the half moon. There can be no other explanation," Erdogan said on Thursday.
The Turkish president also stated the European Court of Justice's (ECJ) Tuesday ruling, which permits companies to ban the Islamic headscarf as part of policies barring religious symbols in the workplace, was the start of a "crusade" by Europe. » | cmb/sms (AFP, dpa, Reuters) | Friday, March 17, 2017

Lord Heseltine Says He Is 'Not Surprised' Brexiteers in Government Don't Know What They Are Doing
Lord Heseltine has said he is “not surprised” that leading Brexiteers in Government appear not to understand what they are doing, in a thinly-veiled attack on senior Eurosceptics promoted to Theresa May’s Cabinet.
While not naming Boris Johnson, David Davis and Liam Fox, the Tory peer said it was right that those who campaigned to leave the EU be put in charge of Government departments to ensure they take responsibility for the difficult decisions ahead. » | Tom Peck | Thursday, March 16, 2017

The World's Fastest Growing Religion? Islam
(CNN) - Islam is the world's fastest growing religion -- and not just in Muslim majority nations: 10% of all Europeans are projected to be members of the Muslim faith by 2050, according to a recent Pew Research Center study.
The study estimates that from 2010 to 2050, Muslims will have increased across the world by 73%, followed by Christians who are projected to grow by 35% during the same time period, and Hindus at 34%.
That means that Islam -- currently the world's second-largest religion -- will surpass Christianity as the world's biggest religion by the end of the century, the study projects. » | Tricia Escobedo | Thursday, March 16, 2017
