Os europeus deixaram de defender os seus valores

Entrevista com o especialista no Islão Bassam Tibi
Durante anos, o politólogo Bassam Tibi aconselhou os muçulmanos a integrarem as sociedades europeias e a Europa a precaver-se contra os islamistas. Falou com o Spiegel sobre a fraqueza da Europa e a ortodoxia do Islão.

Extracto:
SPIEGEL: So what's the answer then?
Tibi: Muslims have to give up three things if they want to becomeEuropeans: They have to bid farewell to the idea of converting others,and renounce the Jihad. The Jihad is not just a way of testing yourselfbut also means using violence to spread Islam. The third thing they needto give up is the Shariah, which is the Islamic legal system. This isincompatible with the German constitution. There are also two thingsthey need to redefine.
SPIEGEL: Which are?
Tibi: Pluralism and tolerance are pillars of modern society. That has tobe accepted. But pluralism doesn't just mean diversity. It means that weshare the same rules and values, and are still nevertheless different.Islam doesn't have this idea. And Islam also has no tradition oftolerance. In Islam tolerance means that Christians and Jews are allowedto live under the protection of Muslims but never as citizens with thesame rights. What Muslims call tolerance is nothing other thandiscrimination.
SPIEGEL: How many of the 3 million Muslims living in Germany would agreeto these demands?
Tibi: A few thousand perhaps.
