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.”

Excellent move. Sean Spicer is doing Now excellent job. God bless him!
Tell them in the past we freed you from$#%&!@*and never really charged you. Next time you shall pay for our services to free you for the third time?
I’m on board – it’s their country. But just what the heck did Sean Spicer have to do with it?
Are you taking any Christian immigrants? The US has gone nuts and we may need a place with some moral character to flee to.
They don’t want us to see what’s in the mosques .??
good for them
