By: Hussein Ferdowsipour 2. maj 2010 | Historik On Thursday 21. april The Information published a commentary by Ali Reza Jabbari, First Secretary of the Iranian Embassy, under the title ‘Baseless accusations about the mosque’. The article was a response to another written by me a week before, also in the Information, where I, on behalf of the grassroot organization Fritiran described the tight links between the clergy rule in Iran and the grand mosque, which just has been rubber-stamped by the Copenhagen City Council for the second instance. First Secretary Ali Reza Jabbari uses half of his reply on charging Frit Iran and the undersigned to be members of MKO (People´s Fighters/Jihadists/Mojahedin, red.), a political organization on the American list over terrorist organizations. This is nonesense. We have no collaboration with MKO. Ali Reza Jabbari is also very angry over our accusations against the Iranian states for being involved in terrorist enterprize. It urge the First Secretary to come up with a direct call to Danish media to "stop communicating these ridiculous stereotypes on Iran«. The medierne have to answer for themselves. However, the reality, as I see it, is, that the Iranian regime, since the clergy took over the power in 1979, has used terror as an inherent part of its expansion and extermination policy. To mentionas some examples, over 200 eksiliranere have been killed by the agents of the clergy rule abroad, among them dereted generals, opposition leaders, intellectuals, stand-up comians, actors and actresses and others. Furthermore the clergy rule has been involved in terror operations in Afghanistan and Iraq - and in Libanon and Saudi Arabia, where several hudreds American Marine soldiers were killed by the state-run car bombs, as did the Iranian state stand behind kidnappings (and hostage-takings English edit.) of foreign citizens in Libanon in the 80’ies and 90’ies. Ayatollah Khomeini´s fatwa (holy killing order) against (the British author of Indian origin English edit.) Salman Rushdie is still in power and two of his publishers in Japan and Italy, respectively, have been murdered, while the Norwegian publisher was more lucky and barely survived the assassination attempt in Oslo. The Iranian stat´s role in these murders and attempted murders is well-documented, and several convicts with ties to the clergy rule are still behind bars in Germany, France and elsewhere. The Fact of the Matter is In his commentary Ali Reza Jabbari rejects completely that Iran should be nvolved in the upcoming Imam Ali-mosque, regardless of the facts decisively leading to the Embassy´s active engagement. Instead the First Secretary only puts forward an array of claims, some probably just crossing the line of the Danish defamation laws. Peace with those claims. (for the time being..., later see you in court sued by some of us! English edit.) The substans of the case is: - That the Iranian embassy owns the property, on which the mosque is supposed to be built. Then-ambassador of Iran to Denmark has signed the mortgage documents in 2001 and there has not been any hand-over proceedings since. - That the Ahl-ul Beyt Foundation, standing as the organizers of the mosque project, is an Iranian creation as a foundation, under the direct command of the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Irans spiritual leader, (and military and intelligence supreme Commander-in-Chief and constitutional and actual head of state - English edit.) and his closest advisors. Ahl-ul Beyt´´s Chairman of the Board, Hojat al Islam, Mohammad Hassan Akhtari is former Iranian ambassador to Syria and by the way a Holocaust denier. - That to a large extent the funds for the mosque building shall be directly funnelled in by the Iranian state. Although First Secretary Ali Reza Jabbari rejects in his commentary, that the Islamic Republic be behind the financing of the mosque refering to the claim, that the 50 million kroner (appr. 9 mio. US $ - English edit.), the mosque budget, should come about by donation collections among Muslims residing here and by private charity organizations in Iran. However, untill now the collections here in Danmark, according to the Politiken 23. april (Danish centre-of-the-spectrum newspaper - English edit.), only has generated around 400.000 kroner (70000 US $ - English edit.). The rest should, according to the First Secretary, come about from what he calles ‘private foundations’. He only forgets to tell, that Iran allows no independent NGO´s, but all such foundations or organizations, he is thinking of, are tightly knittet into the clergy rule and an integrated part of its expansion policy, according to which the regime exports its exterme ideology in a goal-oriented manner. - That the very few Iranians, who use the already existing mosque facilities almost exclusively are people associated to the embassy. The remaining users consist especially of Iraqy, Libanese and Afghany Shia-muslims, with direct association to the Iranian clergy rule or to fundamentalist and Iran-sponsored organizations such as Hizbollah and Hamas. Our worries are not mainly due to the presence of these extermistic persons in Denmark, as they are few in numbers. We are much more afraid for our children and youth become subjected to brainwashing, re-schooling and abuse in the political crusade against the secular and democratic values around the World. And we fear that our children would be receptible and suggestible in particular due to the xenophobic atmosphere, dominating sections of the Danish public. The First Secretary ends his commentary, by the way, with an enthausastic call to Danish politicians: They should visit Iran, he writes, because it »could teach them one or two things about religious tolerance (…)« I really hope, that Danish politicians - and in particular those on the left wing, who have chosen to support the mosque with reference to tolerance and diversity (Yes, sigh) - take the invitation from the First Secretary seriously. Thus, dear socialists, seek visa immediately - and I would like to see, if any of you get permission to enter my old fatherland! Hussein Ferdowsipour is freelancejournalist No to Iranian propaganda-mosque Call to Danes and the Danish left-wing politicians: Do not support the grand mosque at Vibevej road- it will become a propaganda central for the Iranian clergy-regime and a platform for fundamentalist brain wash of unadjusted members of immigrant youth By: Hussein Ferdowsipour 14. april 2010 | Historik Published on the internet at information.dk 14. april 2010,19:15. Printed version 15. april 2010 on page 17 in 1. section. Latest update 14. april 2010, 20:55. I am writing this, because I feel squeezed. Squeezed between the Danish right wing with Pia Kjærsgaard in the lead, who perceives almost every muslim as a potential terrorist, and the Danish left-wing politicians, who in a wellmeaning attempt to accept of other ethnic people overlook most basic human rights. I am a board member of Frit Iran, a grassroot organization of exile-Iranians, who fight, using peaceful means, for a demokratic Iran. Many of us have experienced the oppression of fundamentalism on our own bodies. More have been subject to harsh physicial and psychological torture and yearlong imprisonment. I am myself one of the over five million Iranians, who have been forced to exile since 1979. Through the years I have experienced consequences of the xenophobic atmosphere, which the Danish right wing has put energy in spreading. Let me illustrate this by an example concerning a good friend. Ashkan Panjeheighalehei, also a board member at of Frit Iran, was deported from Denmark to Iran after biased case processing by immigration authorities. Three years after he succeeded anew to flee and reunite with the rest of his family in Denmark. Here he told, how he with bloody clothes and wrist, which was sutured hastily after unsuccesful suicide attempt at Copenhagen International Airport at Kastrup - and quite against medical advice from hospital staff - had been flown to Iran and handed over to his tormentors in Teheran. Thereafter he had to go through 23 months confinement in the ayatollahs´ secret prisons, where he was subject to harsh torture, without ever being presented for any court proceeding. Owned by the Iranian state The problem arises, when various minority rights collide. At present we experience horrifying examples of how the left-wing politicians set aside both women´s rights, children´s rights and freedom of expression only to show concern for, what they imagine, is the right to retain and practice own religion and culture. I am addressing the project regarding a mosque by the name Imam Ali, which soon is to be built at Vibevej in Copenhagen Northwest neighbourhood. The shocking fact is, that Denmark´s first real mosque will both be financed and owned by the Iranian state. That means, owned by a regime, which practices Sharia law, rapes women and men in its prisons and stones and mutilates its own citizens in full public display. Behind the mosque is standing a foundation called Ahl-Ul-Beyt, which already runs 68 other centres for Iran´s clergy-rule around the World. The foundation has as its goal to promote the Islamic Republic of Iran´s views, which shows from the list of its board members, many of which are hardboiled Holocaust deniers. Why dares the Danish left-wing politicians not take the discussion about the mosque, which based on available documentation is intended as a platform for dessimination of the way of approaching matters, which are tightly related to Sharia law and legitimizes crimes such as amputation of arms and legs and stoning of women? Approaches, which left-wing politicians in any other context would oppose without compromise, and here brutally undermine women´s rights, children´s rights, the right of atheists? Sophisticated operation Looking into those centres that Ahl-Ul-Beyt Foundaton is running around the globe, one gets some insight into, what the idea behind the mosque at Vibevej in Copenhagen Northwest neighbourhood be. The foundation´s centres in Africa and Asia have become an axis for radicalization of local muslim communities. The mosques payout mony to the poor, who in return convert to Shia-Islam. With this regard they are subjected to religious education, which is permeated by the clergy-rule´s official stance and its political visions. The Repulic of Azerbajdjan has deemed Ahl-ul-bayt´s presence in that country a threat and closed down their centre there. Similarly South Africa, Ghana, Nigeria, Thailand, Singapore and a few countries in Central Asia have banned Ahl-ul-bayt´s activities. In the West, Ahl-Ul-Beyt is operating in a more sophisticated manner. mere raffineret. Externally they present their centres as peaceful places for sport, culture and celebration of religious holy fiests (at some locations the centres received state funding for these innocent activities). However, at the same time big sums are accumulated and transfered to build similar projects at locations in the World, where a far more radical-fundamentalist practice is preached. Groups associated to Ahlul Bayts mosque in Hamborg, Germany, where involved in the assassination of four leaders of the Kurdish Democratic Party in Berlin i 1992. The Ahlul Bayts mosque in London has similarly created a framework for recruiting of terrorists, death threats against the British-Indian author Salman Rushdie, and espionage against exile-Iranians. The Imam at the planned grand mosque at Vibevej, Mehdi Khademi, was untill 2004 empolyed at the Iranian Islamic Revolution Guard Corps´ department of ideology, whereafter he has switched the military helmet to a turban and was handpicked by the clergy-rule to transfer to Denmark. He must be suspected to have connections to Iran´s ill-reputed intelligence services, especially in lue of his past working collaboration with experts in brain washing and recruiting of new members to the holy cause. Directly from the clergy-rule Ahl-Ul-Beyt has as its assignment to mission for a form of islam, which rules and regulation is dictated directly by the clergy-rule in Iran - thus from a fundamentalist state, which is ill-reputed for its oppression, not only towards other religious communities, but also against competing versions of Islam, thereby oppressing Sunnies, Alavits, moderate muslims, Sufi muslims and secular muslims, all subject to persecutation. This pitch-black ideology, which will dominate within the new mosque. Most exile-Iranians do not perceive the mosque as a forum, where muslims freely practice their belief, but rather yet another location that can be used as a base for espionage against us and a place, where the integration of immigrants be undermined. After 11. of September we have observed a marginalization of people of muslim background, where the media primarily have been preoccupied by us, when any bloody conflicts and sensatinal stories happened. During the same period some of our youth have lost their foothold in the society, where they have been born and grown up, which in turn has fertilized the grounds for exstremist views. Thus Hizbollah has gained a larger recruitment in Danmark, the same can be told about Hamas. Now it is the ayatollahs´ turn to handpick our youngsters. And this time with support from the Danish left-wing politicians! The building of the new mosque is about more than just the issue of freedom of religion and respect for minority cultures. It is about Iran´s wish to grasp political-religious power in Denmark and to create discord, distrust and insecurity amongst the immigrant milieu. Therefore, dear left wing, wake up to reality. This is serious. Listen to the prrotests against the Imam Ali Mosque and Culture Centre. Hussein Ferdowsipour is a freelance journalist. Today at 16.00 Frit Iran and other exile-Iranians hold a peaceful demonstration in front of the City Hall, where the mosque is to be debated __________________________________________________ http://www.information.dk/230656 "Baseless accusations about the mosque", claims the Islamic Iranian Embassy first secretary The Iranian Embassy has nothing to do with the planned grand mosque at Vibevej road - the claim comes from doubtful exile-iranian circles By: Ali Reza Jabbari, first secretary at the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Copenhagen, Denmark 21. april 2010 | Historik In Danish only at information.dk 21. april 2010, 19:15.

Search words for this article Subject words:: refugee and asylum, human rights, mosques in Denmark, religion Organizations: Dagbladet Information (established in 1940´ies as the illegal Danish resistence newspaper, now a newspaper in the league of the British The Guardian,The Independent, The Observer etc.) Places: Iran, Copenhagen In Information 15. april one could read an article on the projected Imam Ali-mosque in Copenhagen, which contains both wrongful reports and baseless accusations against the Embassy of Islamic Republic of Iran in Copenhagen. The author of the article (Hussein Ferdowsipour, editor) presents himself as the leader of an organization called Frit Iran. It is ironic, that members of the terror-organizationen MKO (‘Peopl´s Mujahedin’, editor) feel themselves be called to speak out about a free Iran. During the war forced on by Iraq in 1980’ies the Iranians defended their country against all odds with their blood. They had to, during this endeavour, also guard themselves against traitors within own ranks, who acted as the fifth column acted on behalf of the enemy and recruited innocent youngsters to a especially established army division in Iraq, which was to attack their compatriots. Those, who were lucky enough to get away from MKO security apparatus at the Ashraf-camp in Northren Bagdad, sought political asylum in the West claiming there were persecuted. On their asylum applications, however, they noted nothing about the trison that they had commited against their country or about MKO’s terrorizing the Iranian people during a time of war and suffering. Rather they filled their applications with stories that appealed to the Danish humanitarian instincts and peace-loving conscience. They are terrotists Most Iranian citizens in Denmark are dignified and lawabiding citizens, wo are well-integrated in the Danish society, but a little minority of these citizens have a hardened background as terrorists, and their newest recruits act as foot soldiers and speakers for interest groups, which are determined to perpetrate extensive slander of Iran. It is surprizing that a well-respected Danish newspaper offer itself as a platform for a bunch, whose only contribution to the Danish society has been to organize demonstrations and unrest in front of the Iranian Embassy. It is a fact, that in Iran mosques are seldom built by the government itself. Most mosques are built thanks to donations from the believers. In the islamic Iran khoms - a religious tax, which consists of one fifth of a citizen's annual income after most expenses are paid - lays the foundation for most charity work, including building of hospitals, mosques, orphanages and other humanitarian activities. The Imam Ali-mosque has possibly attempted to acquire financing from such sources, but the Iranian Embassy in Denmark must categorically reject, that we in any way should have given assistance to financing, drafting or building of the mosque at Vibevej road. Engaged in dialogue It is worth noting, that a Shia Muslim mosque has operated in Copenhagen in nearly ten years without ever having preached violence or disobedience towards Danish values and laws. On the contrary, it has continuously been in dialogue with the local community, church leaders, and the and congregation to promote better dialogue between religious communities and integration and religious tolerance. It is difficult to see, how building a mosque in an orderly architectural framework could change these functions, which by the way also are approved by the Danish authorities. Iranians have inherited tolerance towards other races and religions from their forfathers. As the Persian King Cyrus the Great conqured Babylon in 500 BC, he freed all slaves and prisoners and proclaimed, that all were free to practice their prefered religion. This decret was carved in on a cylinder (which is to be found at the British Museum) and is internationally recognized as the first human rights declaration. Those, who oppose building of a mosque in Copenhagen, would be wise to visit Iranian cities and see the churches and synagogues and other places of worship. It could teach them one or two things about religious tolerance and freedom to practice own belief, which are basic principles for individual freedom and human rights. Regarding accuastions of terrorism, is it not timely that the Danish media stop forwarding these rediculous stereotypes about Iran, which are being sought to be spead by opponents of the Iranian nation, henchmen and others, who only try to defer attention from their own crimes in the Middle East. It is regretable, when Danish press Det er beklageligt, når dansk presse spread accusations, which cannot be backed by evidence.

Senest opdateret 26. april 2010 kl. 13:16. Opslag til denne artikel Emneord:islam, stormoské Steder:Iran, København On 14. april a H. Ferdowsipour wrote an article in Information, where he - besides throwing dirt on the undersigned, the imam and responsible leader of Imam Ali Islamic Center - puts forward some lies and vicious statements with the goal to cast suspicion both on my person and the forthcoming mosque project at Vibevej. He marginalizes by his way of his agitation all here residing Iranians and Islam and is not promotnig in any way the possibility for a worthy integration and a peaceful co-existence characterized by tolerance, enlightenment, understanding and respect for each other - regardless of belief and political views. I wish to start with presenting myself: My name is S. Mohammad Mehdi Khademi, I am born in Isfahan in 1962 in a very well-known and respectable family. After school years, in 1977 I went to Ghom to study (Islam and Sharia - edit.english). After compeleted studies I taught in 12 years as tutor at the Theological Faculty in Ghom until 2001 - except for ca. nin months, when I taught in another city. In 1991 I received several recognitions from Theological centres in Ghom, and Najaf in Iraq. Until I emigrated to Denmark in 2001, I have not one day worked for the Iranian Islamic Republic, and therefor I chose to report H. Ferdowsipour to the Police for hais grave slander. Mr. Ferdowsipour should very well prove the judge in court, that his following claims be truthful: That the Iranian state owns the Imam Ali Islamic Center. That the mosque project is being built by money from the Iranian state. That the Islamic organization Ahlul Bait supports the project economically (financially red.english) That the Ahlul Bait organization denies the Holocaust. That employees at the mosque accept and recognize stoning and amputation of arms and legs as punishment. That I until 2004 have been part of the militia organization and worked in the ideological section in Iran. That I and my employees at the mosque gather information about him and his organizationation. All can come As mentioned I have since 2001 resided in Denmark and functioned as imam in Imam Ali Center at Vibevej. It can be confirmed by many Muslims and non-Muslims and the Police via my passport. Mr. Ferdowsipour must be a forgetful liar as he in the programme Deadline at DR2 (16. april) claimed, that I until 2008 have been active member of the militia in Iran? He forgot immediately, that he in his article in Information wrote, that I until 2004 have been a member of a militia organization! How can it be, that he speaks for all exile-Iranians in Denmark, but as he and his organization arranged the demonstration in front of the City Hall, no more than 30-40 persons attended? Since 2001 I have functioned as imam in the mosque at Vibevej in tolerance wih the Danish society. My biggest wish is a peaceful co-existence between diverse groups and congregations. I will present the true and loving Islam. An Islam without violence, terror and with respect for humn rights. For us employees at the Vibevej-moskeen There is no difference between Muslims, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, Zoroastrians, blacks, whites, Arabs or Turks or, Shia or Sunni. We respect all and everyone. We all orginate from the same mother and father. For me an antisemit is as appalling as an antimuslim. Our goal with the building a good-looking mosque is, that people - regardless of their belief and stance - be able to come here and in a beautiful and peaceful environment talk about God. We are therefor building a big and modern amphitheater, where there can be arranged lectures, conferences and debating evenings, where people with different background and views can meet for better understanding of each other. Although I am an Iranian and love my country, it is no hinderance for me of course to respect the Danish laws and regulations. I will never as much as consider to be the long arm for another country and agitate against Denmark, this gorgeous country and its honest and enlightened people. I and my family are a part of this society, and my son is going to a Danish school. I am proud of the fact that my mosquw is the only mosque in the country, where we celebrate at the birthday of Jesus on 24. December. My mosque has the best relations to the Danish population and various churches in Copenhagen. We visit the churches here, and they visit our mosque. I wish that the picture of Islam created by the media be revised. There should not be fear and uncertainty among the Danish population. We will build a house of God - and not a house of Iranian Islamic Republic! Rightwing views In September 2009 2.481 names and signatures and addresses were delivered to the Copenhagen City Council - among these were many non-Muslims - who wish to support the mosque project economically (financially - red.english), and these numbers have grown larger during past six months. Mr. Ferdowsipour and people like him create impressions of animosity and uneasiness and fear among the Danish population. That of him chosen designaion "grand mosque" - for the recently approved mosque building project at Vibevej - is synonymous with increased risc for terror, according to his article in Information. if Mr. Ferdowsipour´s thesis, that a square metre area equals risc for terror, I can calm him by saying that the mosque project is ca. 300 sqm less than the present worn down factory buildinigs at Vibevej, where I have since 2001 been imam. The claimed square metre- related progressive terrorrisc is this case degressive! ‘Grand mosque’ is used consciously by Ferdowsipour in his manipulation of especially the left wing - although his article at several instances indicates rightwing views. I look forward with joy as imam - and on behalf of my congregation - that we within near future shall take a beautiful environment in use at Vibevej and continue to work for a peaceful co-existence characterized by love of the next.
