Declaration calls on visitor to reject and condemn violence in the name of Islam

[barryqwalsh]

The Irish Muslim Peace & Integration Council (Impic) is calling on Irish mosques and Islamic organisations to request foreign speakers to sign an anti-extremism declaration.

It has also suggested the Department of Justice might incorporate the signing of the declaration into the visa conditions for visiting speakers.

The declaration calls on those who sign it to state they “unequivocally reject, disown and condemn all terrorism committed in the name of Islam by any militant group”, and would not promote sectarianism while in Ireland or that people should travel to take part in foreign conflicts.
