(...) Several senior civil servants are also understood to have reservations because Qaradawi, 80, has previously received treatment in France, suggesting that he can receive medical attention for his undisclosed illness elsewhere.<BR/>Row over Islamist cleric's visa, Guardian, January 27, 2008<BR/>http://politics.guardian.co.uk/print/0,,332257412-110247,00.html<BR/><BR/>So, Qaradawi came to Paris for medical treatment and a speech and a lunch banquet at the embassy of Qatar? Before France, he was in a hospital in Algeria:<BR/>Algeria's Al-Shorouq newspaper reported Friday that the president's brother, Dr Mostafa Bouteflika, was leading the medical team treating Sheikh Qaradawi. (Algerian Ein Al-Na'ga military hospital) He was suffering from a minor stomach ulcer, the sources said.<BR/>http://www.islamonline.net/servlet/Satellite?c=Article_C&cid=1187775992155&pagename=Zone-English-News%2FNWELayout<BR/><BR/>I wonder what he scheduled for London: a meeting with Ken?

Al-Qaradawi said this in a speech he delivered in front of top Islamic leaders and Arab ambassadors and media figures in France, in a lunch banquet held by Qatari ambassador to France, Mohammed Jaham Al Kuwari in the embassy in Paris."<BR/>Did Qaradawi get visa for France since his speech in Bourget 2000? Or doesn't need one as a Qatari citizen in the embassy of Qatar in Paris?<BR/>This must have been at the same time as Sarkozy visited Qatar, what a coincidence.

Their websites tend to go dead a lot (http://www.fioe.org http://www.eu-islam.com http://fioeu.org/ discontinued?)...<BR/>So they claim that more than 400 organisations, representing a fourth to a fifth of muslims in Europe, have signed their charter - and can't produce the names of those? Interesting. I read on KUNA (http://www.kuna.net.kw/Home/Story.aspx?Language=en&DSNO=1064480) that the charter was funded "a lot" by Kuwait's Awqaf (endowments) Ministry. <BR/>And the FIOE budget of 400.000 Euros also comes to a large part from the gulf, about two thirds.<BR/>There was (is?) a short clip of the charter press conference in Brussels, with french and german dubbing/commentary. The french always give a hint (like affiliated to UOIF or Qaradawi connection), but german media are absolutely clueless about FIOE (or, alternativly, they don't want to give FIOE publicity after identifying Ibrahim El-Zayat, but I don't believe in this kind of media conspiracy fantasies)<BR/>But back to the Gaza campaign: <BR/>"The campaign, run by the Brussels-based Federation of Islamic Organisation in Europe, is being held under the theme We Are All Gaza.<BR/>Separately, the Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs yesterday denounced Israel's fierce onslaught on the Gaza Strip and its siege crippling people.<BR/>A silent vigil will be held today in front of the Egyptian Embassy in Mahooz to protest the siege and the Arab silence.<BR/>Bahrain Society for Anti-Normalisation with the Zionist Enemy is co-ordinating the rally with civil societies."<BR/>Wow, awesome name.<BR/>In 2000, the FIOE was distributing graphic photos to raise anger for the intifada against Israel. The photos showed the bloody corpse of Issam Judeh Mustafa Hamed, allegedly tortured to death by Israeli settlers, but really the victim of a car accident (Physicians for Human Rights report November 2000).<BR/><BR/>Best regards<BR/>flowAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
