Minaret ban 'a security risk' - Swiss minister

And have you noticed all of the new churches and synagogues springing up in Muslim countries? Why do you suppose Muslims are perceived to represent a "security threat?" Could it be because they are?
Minaret ban 'a security risk' - Swiss minister

A decision by Swiss voters to ban the construction of minarets poses a risk to Switzerland's security, the country's foreign minister says.

Micheline Calmy-Rey said the Swiss government was "very concerned" about the ban, adopted by voters on Sunday.

"Each limitation on the co-existence of different cultures and religions also endangers our security," she told the European security body, the OSCE.

A top UN official has called the ban "clearly discriminatory".
