Swiss get what they want and you complain?

Mr. Candas is wondering....

"Why when a religious government takes a christian country they call them conservatives. When a religious government takes a muslim country they call them islamist or extermist and see it poses a threat."

You forgot to mention that Islam demands Muslims to achieve dar Al Islam. You also forgot to mention that very rarely does a religious government take over a Christian contry. Remember Western countries with a Christian majority in the population are secular in the real sense - not in the pseudo-secular Turkish sense. You also forgot to mention that westrrn secular countries with a Christian majority do not have such barbaric practices as amputation, crucifixion, stoning and hangig on teir statute books for relatively minor offences.

" What swiss people did racist and thats it. "
So which race are muslms again?

"They should be happy when they see a minaret like i , become happy when i see a church in my muslim country."

Your tag says you are inthe US - so I hope you're not suffering from the delusion that the US is a Muslim country. If you mean some other country - well - you must be one of the few who are happy to see a non-muslim religious instutution in your little piece Dar Al Islam. A minaret is not a mosque as a spire is not a church. The Swiss have not banned mosque building - why didn't you point that out???

" So you prefer extremeists, terorists rather than democratically elected prime ministers, congressman is that what you are saying? "

No, they prefer the exact opposite - no extremists, terrorists (Islamic or otherwise) and democratically elected leaders who put into place laws made by democratic choice. You have a problem with the Swiss deciding what they want to do in their own country?
