The government of Angola has been accused of “banning Islam” by the Islamic Community of Angola (ICA) after authorities closed down all but a few unlicensed mosques in the capital city of Luanda.
There are legal penalties for women who wear the iconic veil and social pressure from both government authorties and private citizens for Muslims to leave the country. Angola does not recognize Islam as an Angolan religion as there are not enough Muslims to meet the required 100,000 members or presence in 12 of 18 provinces.
The government of Angola justified their policies, saying that Islam is an “invasion of Angolan culture and a threat to Christian values.” Muslims have been asked to tear down their own mosques under threat of paying for the demolition fees. The Angolan government has also denied that is has tried to ban Islam, stating that “there is no position that targets the destruction or closure of places of worship.”

Good for this country!!
Ummmmm, I believe 9/11 was an outlandish presense of radical Islam in american, and that predates Obamaramadingdong…
Good for them, I wish the America would do the same !!!
Burn all if them down here in the US. It is not a religion it is a cult.
Killem all? So, if yheres like 10 million muzzies and only 500,000 are committi g crimes against humanity, then we should ASSUME that the others are DESTINED to follow suit? Sounds like genocide to me, but why should I care, I’m not a muslim? I understand when you have a sick$#%&!@*whom you know has killed but to kill others A PRIORI because they MAY be as evil is as evil as the thinking of the murderous radicals. You shoot a man when he points a gun at you, not if he MIGHT point a gun at you. Two evils do not make one right.
That’s what I’m talking about !
If only Gen. Patton were around to take charge of the Muslim problem.
Way to go Angola .
Ban muslims, or kill’em,either way!!
Angola has it right. I support Angola’s stand against islam.
