Cologne, Germany: Massive Mosque approved, demonstrations threatened
The AP carries this headline: Far-right European groups to protest German mosque. The report indicates that “far right” groups are planning to protest the mosque which features two 177-foot-tall minarets. ”Last week, the Iranian Foreign Ministry urged France as the current European Union president to block the planned gathering and complained it reflects a ‘growth of anti-Islamic sentiments in Europe.’”
The Internal Herald Tribune reports: Cologne approves mosque over far right’s objections.
