Denmark bans six hate preachers, including five Muslims
Denmark publishes a blacklist of six foreign preachers accused of spreading hatred, including five Muslims and an American Evangelical pastor, banning them for at least two years.
The list includes two Saudis, a Canadian, a Syrian and two Americans, including pastor Terry Jones who burned copies of the Koran in 2011.
The blacklist “sends a clear signal that travelling fanatical religious preachers who try to undermine our democracy and fundamental values of freedom and human rights are not welcome in Denmark,” the immigration and integration ministry says in a statement.
