He's fight two fights at once, so it'll spill into other topics.

AFP: Egypt mufti says Swiss minaret ban insults Muslims

Egypt's Mufti Ali Gomaa denounced a vote to ban new minarets in Switzerland on Sunday as an "insult" to Muslims across the world, while calling on Muslims not to be provoked by the move.

"This proposal...is not considered just an attack on freedom of beliefs, but also an attempt to insult the feelings of the Muslim community in and outside Switzerland," Gomaa, the Egyptian government's official interpreter of Islamic law, told the state-run news agency MENA.

He encouraged Switzerland's 400,000-strong Muslim community to use "dialogue" and legal means to contest the ban, which he described as "provocative behaviour."

Gomaa also called on Muslims not to be affected "by this provocation," adding that Islam "considers humanity a single family."
It's nice to see someone trying to slow this before it does turn bad...
