Minarets ARE a symbol of Islamic supremacy, say ACTUAL MUSLIMS

December 2, 2009 By admin

Andrew Bostom speaks VERY slowly for the wimpy, “nuanced” “conservative” appeasers:

Take Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan’s provocative statement:

“The mosques are our barracks, the domes are our helmets, the minarets are our swords, and the faithful are our army”)

From the official Brill Encyclopedia of Islam:

It must be remembered, however, that throughout the mediaeval period, the role of the minaret oscillated between two polarities: as a sign of power and as an instrument for the adhān.”

***
In other words:

Minarets are not the “moral equivalent” of church steeples.

They are the moral equivalent of burning crosses.
