Excerpt:
French Prime Minister Manuel Valls has stated that the West must "fight the discourse of the Muslim Brotherhood in our country" and scrutinize foreign funding of mosques, a sharp break from U.S. policy that views the Brotherhood as a moderate competitor to Al-Qaeda and the Islamic State (ISIS).
Prime Minister Valls said the country needs to enact policies to combat the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood and Salafists, making the point that Islamist terrorism is a product of radical preaching. He announced that the Interior Minister will lead a study on the foreign financing of mosques in France and the training of French imams.
"We seek to establish a model of Islam that is fully integrated, fully compatible with the values of the Republic," Valls said.
