An Interview Amongst Klára Samková

Klára Samková.

Samková for EuroNews: Ambassador of Turkey has behaved equally an onetime woman. Muslims are expecting that their ideology volition hold out tolerated.

An interview: It is quite appropriate to compare Islam amongst totalitarian ideologies together with the Turkish ambassador has escaped the hall equally a pubertal boy, attorney Klára Samková says inwards an interview for EuroNews.cz. She has ignited passions past times its vox communication directed against Islam. Does she await to a greater extent than or less farther repercussions of the story? And why did she voluntarily assist to Muslims years ago?




In the hall of the Parliament, y'all gave a rather tough vox communication on the seminar titled "Should nosotros hold out afraid of Islam?". You've classified Islam equally a criminal ideology together with y'all compared it to the Nazism, fascism, together with communism. What has led y'all to this tough comparison?

In my opinion, the comparing isn't a tough i but rather a truthful one. More precisely, it is non a comparing at all but rather a fully objective categorization of Islam inwards the grouping of analogous totalitarian – together with nosotros must add, far less barbarous – ideologies.




The Czech media but fifty-fifty e.g. the Slovak ones convey been talking close an "international scandal". Do y'all await to a greater extent than or less farther consequences of your speech?

Whether it volition atomic number 82 to a personal sequel is a shumafuck [=irrelevant, literally noise-and-blow] from my viewpoint. What's needed is to start to hash out these matters openly. The so-called governing elites together with a large component of the intellectuals convey lost the feedbacks from the reality. They no longer know what life means... they convey in all likelihood forgotten what it way to hold out hungry for to a greater extent than than a few minutes together with what it way to hold out actually hungry. They no longer know what it way to human face a lethal threat because of their opinions. The 1950s [Stalinism] are already also far for them. We demand to start to verbalise close Islam, halt academic speculations close what Islam meant for Arabs inwards the seventh century, together with laid out to debate what it way for the whole planet inwards the 21st century.

The ambassador of Turkey has claimed that your statements convey been stunning together with that Islamophobia flourishes inwards Czechia. At the same moment, he has argued that past times your speech, y'all convey violated both Czech together with international laws together with he consequently wants the government to react. Would y'all similar to respond to his words inwards to a greater extent than or less way?

Mr Turkish ambassador has run away from the hall equally a pubertal man child who tries to defy his parents. This behaviour is non appropriate for an adult man, allow solitary a diplomat. He behaved equally an onetime adult woman or a coward. As far equally the Muslims are concerned, they are expecting that according to the European law, their ideology volition hold out tolerated. And afterwards, they volition hold out capable of straight or indirectly imposing it on everyone. I convey referred to precise legal provisions, inwards item Article 17 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which imply that the activities of Islam inwards Europe are forbidden. The ambassador hasn't provided us amongst a unmarried legal provision that I was supposed to convey violated together with he hasn't justified anything at all, which is rather feature for Islam. He is only issuing politico-ideological proclamations that a lawyer similar me is indifferent to. If the government volition larn involved, therefore to say, nosotros volition run into what happens next. If the Reichstag starts to burn, believe me that my defence strength volition hold out equally prepared equally Georgi Dimitrov's defence strength was.

Lawmaker Mr Zdeněk Soukup who was organizing the lawsuit has defended y'all past times proverb that your rhetorical choices may convey been unfortunate but he agrees amongst many points of yours. On the other hand, ex-minister of judge Ms Helena Válková has denounced your words, much similar the electrical flow ministry building of unusual affairs. Have y'all noticed to a greater extent than or less additional positive or negative reactions inwards your environment?

I am non certain what Mr deputy way past times the "unfortunate rhetorical choices". I said what I believe together with what I may justify past times the available evidence. Ms ex-minister Válková who informed us at the terminate of the debate that she was a feminist may denounce whatever she wants. It's primarily her who has distanced herself from the reality together with also from the women who are suppressed past times Islam. She has betrayed together with left all these women – she has failed them equally a woman, equally a lawyer, together with equally a lawmaker: shame on her!

The reactions convey been numerous together with various but frankly speaking, they are non decisive for me. What is decisive are the facts. And a fact is that Islam is a totalitarian lifestyle ruining the people's fates across the world. I subscribe to the words past times Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the showtime president of Turkey, who has said:

This is Islam, an absurd theology of an immoral Bedouin, a rotting corpse which poisons our lives. Unfortunately, the 2d quote past times the manful somebody bring upwards of the Turks is no longer equally real. He said: Islam is proficient plenty at most for the Arab sissies, non for the Turks who are conquerors together with men. The Turks are no longer conquerors inwards whatever feel – they are abusing the refugees, the weakest ones, to brand their conqueror dreams come upwards truthful spell they are belongings their weapons together with struggle against the Kurdish daughter militias. And they are no longer men, either, equally the ambassador has shown past times his rush away from the Parliament.

The People's Party's deputy Mr Ivan Gabal has argued that your vox communication has undermined the seat of the EU's negotiators together with insulted our allies. I approximate y'all run into it differently...

Mr Gabal is an of import human being for me. I convey known him for 25 years when he began to sociologically suggest together with refine solutions to integrate the Romani people inwards the communist Czechoslovakia, federal democratic Czechoslovakia, together with after Czechia. As nosotros tin see, his proposals together with prognoses convey been therefore fantastically fulfilled that, equally I convey already mentioned, i could e'er rely on his opinion: it's plenty to exercise the exact contrary of what he says together with the positive resultant is guaranteed to emerge. That's how I also yell back close his recommendations vis-a-vis the "union's negotiators" – incidentally, whose legs I would knock downward real happily, if it were possible. Unfortunately, I am non rigid plenty to exercise so.

Also, the Headquarters of the Muslim Communities convey issued their statement. Their spokesman Mr Muneeb Alrawi pointed out that "your mental attitude is paradoxical because several years ago, y'all convey repeatedly helped the Islamic Foundation inwards Prague inwards real of import matters both equally a somebody together with through your attorney's purpose together with that y'all convey fifty-fifty given upwards all the compensations together with did all your services for free, out of a pure sympathy for an scheme that proudly associates itself amongst Islam past times its real name". How is it possible that your mental attitude has changed therefore much since then?

Mr Alrawi is a coward because he must know that according to the Bill close Attorneys, I am constrained past times the duty of confidentiality which way that I convey express tools to defend myself against his highly misleading statements. In 2001, I convey indeed done to a greater extent than or less services for the Islamic Foundation together with it was for free. In the same way, I convey provided many other non-profit organizations amongst my services for complimentary together with I convey helped many truly pitiable people for free. I convey been acting inwards this way throughout those 22 years when I was an attorney. In the cases inwards which my run is sufficient together with which I create upwards one's heed to hold out appropriate, I am non only offering my services for complimentary but I am roofing all the expenses, too. Two aspects of Mr Alrawi's controversy are spicy: first, he dares to wrongly attribute motivations to me – he says that I was doing this run because of my sympathies to Islam. No, I did these things because of my sympathies for non-profit together with charity organizations together with the Islamic Foundation wasn't unique from this perspective. This incorrect attribution together with foisting is a typically Islamic misinterpretation together with it is a way to abuse the favor I convey done for them.

I must add together that inwards 2001, the province of affairs was exclusively dissimilar together with at that topographic point were reasons to believe that Muslims together with Christians could convey been going to peacefully co-exist. My having been therefore naive is i of the reasons why I convey a smashing agreement for those who – unfortunately totally unjustifiably – promise inwards the peaceful co-existence now. The 2d spicy seem is the innovative elaborate strategy to discredit me. He tried to discredit me past times linking me to himself. It is similar equally if Radovan Krejčíř [the notorious Czech criminal inwards South Africa] were alert the lodge against me because I used to run for him together with everyone knows what sort of a graphic symbol he is. This is an exclusively innovative strategy that Mr Alrawi has exploited together with I must say that it returns to a greater extent than or less promise to my veils that the integration of Muslims inwards Czech Republic could succeed, after all. Why? Because Mr Alrawi's play a joke on is basically equivalent to the famous controversy past times Professor Cabbage inwards the legendary tale past times Mr Šimek together with Grossmann, "The Excursion to a Zoo", which says: "I don't desire the discount for free." This one-liner has been igniting a highly pleasant reaction inwards the core of every Czech who is faithful to his tribe.

Your vox communication was also commented past times Mr Martin Konvička who has apologized that he has kicked y'all out of the Bloc Against Islam. Are y'all inwards touching on amongst him? And are y'all thinking close whatever cooperation amongst the Bloc Against Islam or the newly formed Alternative for Czechia?

Be to a greater extent than precise: Mr Konvička hasn't apologized to me. Instead, he posted something that he considers an apology on the spider web pages of the Bloc Against Islam. I don't desire to analyze it deeper because I could real good advise him to befriend the Turkish ambassador. (By the way, when y'all were bespeak close the responses, I may confirm i of them. Instead of "go to... [the aß, i.e. away]" [which way "screw you"], I convey heard people proverb "go together with follow the Turkish ambassador" which is longer but evidently catchy enough.) Otherwise I am non inwards touching on amongst Mr Konvička, he seems to hold out busy vetting his remaining members. I am non planning a farther cooperation amongst the Bloc but I volition endorse everyone who volition convince me that he's going to human face upwards Islam. That's also why I decided that I volition maximally back upwards Mr Petr Hampl inwards his candidacy for the Senate inwards Beroun together with Mr Jiří Kobza inwards his senate crusade inwards Mělník. Both men are worthy together with I utilization this chance to recommend them to the pleno titulo readership, too.

If nosotros halt talking close your speech, what is your thought close the EU-Turkey deal? Will it halt the influx of the refugees?

This real inquiry sounds therefore nonsensical past times itself that I can't discovery the forces to create an response pretending to hold out diplomatic. So an undiplomatic one: silliness.

And should a similar treaty hold out negotiated together with ratified amongst to a greater extent than or less African countries, equally several European Union leaders propose?

This is no longer a silliness, it is a psychiatric disorder.
