CAIR Says Islamophobia in Europe ‘Spinning Out of Control’ After Murder of Muslim Woman in Germany, Fire at Mosque in Spain

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, today said that Islamophobia is “spinning out of control” in Europe after a Muslim woman was murdered in Germany and a mosque was burned during anti-immigrant riots in Spain.

Hawzah News Agency- In a statement, CAIR Deputy Executive Director Edward Ahmed Mitchell said:

“We strongly condemn the horrific murder of a Muslim woman in Germany in an apparent hate crime, as well as the fire at a mosque in Spain during anti-immigrant riots. Anti-Muslim hate is spinning out of control in Europe, fueled by the hateful rhetoric and policies of both far-right politicians and far-left politicians. European leaders must take action to curtail this rising tide of bigotry and respect religious freedom before this violence continues to spread and escalate''.

He noted that CAIR recently called on European leaders to stop promoting anti-Muslim hate after mosques in the United Kingdom and France were targeted with attacks.

CAIR also called on French officials to stop fanning the flames of Islamophobia after a suspect reportedly killed a Tunisian neighbor in southeastern France and badly wounded a Turkish man.
