--------------------------------------- -------------------
Why all those persecuted Patrick Bahners with such rage that dare to point in the integration of Muslims on issues? We are neither blind critics of Islam to the reality nor alarmist. A critique of an angry book.
Bahners Patrick has written a very angry book. In "alarmist" a clear enemy emerges, namely "the criticism of Islam." Bahners differentiated only reluctantly or not at all between different streams of criticism of Islam, which for him are all illegitimate branches of the same tribe, all representatives of a "culture of resentment" and so that all questionable morally deeply. The argument Islam critic is for him to call for a "world civil war" to destroy the Muslims and the Muslim faith also. Individual critics of Islam, he admits that it is perhaps not as mean or the consequences of their actions not to look. Overall, however, he considers the activities of the critics of Islam hostile to religion and even hostile towards any true liberal, come, finally, a Jacobin state understanding, a virtue terror in new and terrible form of the word to speak.
provides the historical parallel to the criticism of Islam in Bahners bourgeois anti-Semitism of the nineteenth century. Again and again he provides his critique of the criticism of Islam with appropriate connotations, and consequently he ends his book with a long quotation from the historian Heinrich Treitschke from 1879, which ended with the fatal phrase "The Jews are our misfortune". Bahners leads to Treitschke to subject in order that its claim to the "Jewish fellow citizens," they should "be German, is quite simply feel like a German", ultimately the way to Auschwitz prepared. He quotes approvingly Micha Brumlik, me "Treitschke one of the early twenty-first century" called. Car takes no accident Treitschke call for assimilation and the way to Auschwitz in a relationship. One could almost we suspect he would have written for the Turkish President Erdogan, speaking in the Cologne arena in which the latter said: "Assimilation is a crime against humanity."
By relating to anti-Semitism and Auschwitz as its consequences Bahners retaliatory attacks to the maximum resources, quasi nuclear weapon of the German political discourse. Those who argued this would like to do his enemies once and for all. Anyone who uses nuclear weapons, which is either safely or it lacks conventional means of warfare. Bahners expresses some intelligent thought, and his book would have done better when he disarmed a little argumentative would have. He gives the impression that emotions drive him to master it more than that he controls them.
In the center of his book is an objective problem. Many critics of Islam, see this issue as well, but they give a different answer: the secular, liberal constitutional state has a requirement that all citizens, legal entities and public organizations adhere to its rules, to some extent, internalize the rules of the state law in doubt give priority for divergent religious commandments. For those who Bahners called "secularists" or "critics of Islam," it is clear that the rules of the liberal Rule of law in all circumstances prevail due for divergent religious rules or customs of immigrants with a different cultural tradition. For trains is not clear. He argues that stands for every believer the divine right of the man-made law and that it was unreasonable and immoral to force a man to the belief betrayal by him abfordere to respect the primacy of human rights against the divine commandments, and also to confess.
Bahners This speaks to a fundamental problem that goes far beyond Islam: In the core of every religious persuasion lies namely a perceived revelation whose source is not of this world and who consequently can not bow to the more casual, made in any case of human social rules of life. If there are already, then the human rules of the revealed divine order.
What does that mean in Germany and Europe for the integration of Islam as a religion, its beliefs and rules of life on many aspects of secular modernity rather be in conflict? What conflicts arise from it, and how can they manage productive and forward-looking?
This could have been the subject of the book. But its author is not interested. He followed over three hundred pages all that with his anger, who see the integration of Muslims in Europe and rising numbers of immigrants from Muslim countries problems. His favorite enemies are, in alphabetical order: Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Henryk Broder, Ralph Giordano, Necla Kelek, Thilo Sarrazin, Alice Schwarzer, Peter Sloterdijk.
In the fight against the critics of Islam in general and the persons mentioned in particular the problems come Bahner, which responds to criticism of Islam, largely out of sight. He is not concerned about women's rights, not to transfer reference, not to deficiencies in the educational participation, not the marriage behavior, not symptoms of violence, not a parallel society. Patrick Bahners it's all about one thing: namely, ensuring that it is in his view, wrong and morally reprehensible, Muslims should be encouraged to assimilate to European culture. When the Turkish President Erdogan ever needed a ghostwriter, Patrick Bahners would be the ideal candidate.
of example is his treatment of the headscarf issue: If twelve year old girls may wear a headscarf in school, it is for him primarily and initially a violation of religious freedom. He does not come to mind to ask to what extent the freedom of opportunities of young girls affected if they are not even in school from the rigorous Islamic views role and relationship of gender to be dismissed and this is still - tolerated in the secular school - must bring with fashion expression.
Subliminally is visible in Bahners that his modest and roll just veiled Muslim femininity is much more sympathetic than the sexually charged unbridled chaos of Western secular women's emancipation. Here's a secret yearning for a binding international order beyond human standards of validity, which the West can not offer anymore.
If you read a book or hear an opinion, in which one does not share the basic approach should is nevertheless considered the direction of the argument remain open to other, otherwise there is no dialogue. I miss when Bahners. A typical example is as degrading, yes, distorting and falsifying he treats the people and the arguments of the critics he criticized Islam. The fact that he has such means necessary to disavow his case and makes its motives questioned.
Quite at the beginning of his book, he deals with my interview in "Lettre International" the September 2009 deal, while his method is clear. He quotes me to the steps of integration: "The first stage is that you learn German, the second is that it properly by primary school is the third that you go to high school there and studied exam does. "This is really trivial. The interview was about the increase in the proportion of migrants in the public service, and to serve in the judiciary, tax administration, as a teacher or the police today in the upper or higher grade is always a degree required. to bring more Turkish and Arab immigrants in these positions, therefore means, first, that make more of them high school and study. Bahner's comments contrast to my quote, "Fully integrated, the academics, the whole man has high school" and assumed me to a silly conceit education, which I do not have.
He also asks me, "the fantasy of an administrative action brought about by ethnic cleansing" and "the idea of an order by resettlement measures improved education statistics. In fact, I demand a stronger orientation of education and academic performance at the idea and run in part: "If the Turks would be integrated so that they would have in the school system to another group of similar success, the problem would grow. Turkish lawyers, doctors Turkish, Turkish engineers will also speak German, and then level out the rest. " So I said in the "Lettre" interview. Bahner, however twisted my statement into its opposite, to me to imply the "phantasm ethnic Clean" by "administrative resettlement measures." The connotation of the Holocaust is obviously intentional, his insinuation is outrageous and also indecent.
For trains, this method is, to quote his opponents and distorting their statements, unfortunately, as an example. The whole book is full of it. This brings me to the question of "decency". Bahners can not find that in Germany there is a problem in the tension between free speech and "politicial correctness" is. He rejected the notion and leads instead to the "decency" as a measure of human and thus political communications. But this is only one word for "This says you can not" be replaced by another, also by a term that is due to its subjectivity conventions reflect only that question but can not. The term of decency, unwanted questions and opinions are excluded perfect, and it makes ample use Bahners. It lacks only the Volte to derive also the relevant content of the concept of decency from a religious revelation, and the desired shielding of any discussion of the dangers of political incorrectness would be successful. Mind you, this argument is not a license to abandon the decorum, but you have to be clear about the effect of terms. By using the concept of decency, the problem of "political correctness" is not solved, it is even worse. Consequently, because by not Bahners that my "Lettre" interview exceeded the boundaries of political correctness, he finds simply that it was indecent and serious debate is not actually worth it.
Typical of his twisted world view is the trivialization of the events surrounding the Mohammed cartoons. Not the scandal that people died because of the cartoons that attacks were perpetrated and that the cartoonist is threatened for years with death, is discussed by him, but we are the ironic instruction given that "the Republican world public ... subject to the use of the venerable means of blasphemy for the purpose of mental sharpness and spirits divorce must". That is, trains appear to share the outrage of the Islamic world over the cartoons, and he also shares her outrage at the non-violence as a reaction to these cartoons.
His emotions saves Bahners on for those he sees as Islam critic. When Henryk Broder, for example, he places the moral integrity into question, by the discussion of the concept of tolerance with the words, comments: "But this will lead to morality are aware of yourself, or soft they should?" Necla Kelek he admits though that she had written an "intellectually stimulating" thesis, but he sows doubts on the veracity and credibility of their own in "The Foreign Bride" told family story. Bothers him quite evident that the gradual Islamization of Necla Kelek typical Turkish guest worker in Germany, as they observed them do not like. He denies the scientific respectability: "The author is the main culprit in today's media world," and then comes the shoulder shot: ". If you put on the development of the author of an intellectual scale, speak of regression"
This is defamation, it comes from the mouth of a man in the aliens and trade free Bonner South City was growing up in a family house, within walking distance in the Beethoven School went to school and then in Bonn and Oxford and then studied at the age of 22, joined the editorial staff of the FAZ. Of the storms of life Bahners Patrick has remained truly spared. This is not to accuse him, but he is not entitled (to the addition of content completely unfounded) arrogance towards those who their personal resume required quite different and has influenced, and perhaps have more reason why this delay.
The defamation Kelek goes further than that: "As she spoke, that she dared to hope in the Islamic world, not even on allies in the spirit, she had pulled the front line of a global civil war." Thanks to Patrick Bahners we finally know: Not Al Qaeda is a threat to world peace, Necla Kelek it is - and it of all who share their fears! The fury of Patrick Bahners (so you probably can describe his attitude) applies with particular sharpness of the principles of French secularism Policy.
His aversion also attracts family minister Kristina Schröder, because it focuses on the relationship between religion and violence among Muslim youth. And here he can not leave to work with the agent of personal degradation. He characterizes it as "the political scientist who earned his doctorate from the famous television pollsters Jürgen Falter with an investigation into the justice ideals of the CDU parliamentary deputies. This completely unrelated note, he will probably get his voice heard, that the current Minister of Family Affairs have written a thin board dissertation. What are you doing, and what does this have with the arguments to do by Kristina Schroeder, unless you want to defame a person in order to reduce the weight of their opinion?
Finally cited Patrick Bahners the rhetorical question of Necla Kelek: "If we are not Germans, Turks, but first Christians, Jews or Muslims, not citizens, but believers or unbelievers?" He pushes Necla Kelek a view that they do does not have: "The notion that the state is supreme and the righteous can never be a duty of conscience to the resistance in Germany have recently taken the German Christians." not the state is supreme, but a rule of the Constitution Freedom - that distinction blurs Bahners to move to Necla Kelek near the German Christians who supported the Nazi dictatorship. assumed
This last major defamation Bahners Necla Kelek and with it all critics of Islam, they were of the opinion that there is no conscience and no moral authority beyond the state bid. This allegation is so outrageous that the spring resists it, they write. and probably a man - - This is where an author has really wrong track.
