Rede von Merkel auf Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz - Kampf gegen den IS [ist] nur gemeinsam [zu bewältigen] – 18. Februar 2017


Merkel: Europe Must Take More Migrants, Islam Is Not The Cause Of Terrorism


BREITBART.COM: Angela Merkel claims that the European Union still has a “responsibility” to take in more so-called refugees, and pleaded to Islamic governments to help convince people that terrorism has nothing to do with Islam.

The 62-year-old German chancellor began her speech by acknowledging that “the European Union right now is in a very difficult situation due to the result of the British referendum … which is very regrettable”.

While calling on the bloc “to do more to integrate our military capacity”, she also confessed it could not fight terrorism without U.S. president Donald Trump’s assistance. » | Jack Montgomery | Saturday, February 18, 2017

Sicherheitskonferenz: Merkel fordert vom Islam Abgrenzung vom Terrorismus


BERLINER ZEITUNG: München - Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel (CDU) hat von islamischen Autoritäten eine klare Abgrenzung vom Terrorismus gefordert. Sie erwarte „klare Worte“ über die Abgrenzung des friedlichen Islam vom Terrorismus im Namen des Islam, sagte Merkel am Samstag bei der Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz.

Merkel to Security Summit: Islam Is Not the Source of Terror


THE TIMES OF ISRAEL: German chancellor tells Munich conference that Muslim clergy must fight back against ‘false’ reading of their religion

The Islamic faith is not the cause of terrorism, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Saturday, and urged members of the Muslim clergy to fight back against a “false” interpretation of the religion that permits acts of violence to be carried out in its name.

Arguing for Muslim states to cooperate with the rest of the world to stamp out terror, the chancellor told an international security conference in Munich that this is the only way to persuade non-Muslims that the religion is one of peace. » | Times of Israel Staff and Agencies | Saturday, February 18, 2017

Merkel: 'Islam Is Not the Source of Terrorism'


AL JAZEERA: Both Merkel and US Vice President Mike Pence attend key security conference in Munich with Russia high on the agenda.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel has said Islam is not the source of "terrorism" and that cooperating with predominantly Muslim states in the fight against it is vital.

Merkel, who has been critical of US President Donald Trump's attempt to impose a temporary travel ban on people from seven Muslim-majority countries, was speaking on Saturday at the Munich Security Conference, with US Vice President Mike Pence in the audience.

"I think, those countries, first and foremost have to give a contribution. Because only in this way we would be able to convince people that it is not Islam that is the source of terrorism. But a falsely understood Islam," she said.

"I expect from religious authorities of Islam to find strong language in order to delimitate peaceful Islam from terrorism committed in the name of Islam. We as non-Muslims cannot do this, it should be done by Islamic clergy and authorities," she added. » | Source: Al Jazeera and news agencies | Saturday, February 18, 2017
