"Haci Ilqar Ibrahimoglu: 'The occupation of Quds is also the occupation
of Azerbaijan'"
Ilqar Ibrahimoglu, head of the Centre to Protect Freedom of Conscience
and Religion (DEVAMM) and imam of the Cuma mosque, has held a round
table devoted to the Quds [Jerusalem] Day. The occupation of Quds is
not only an invasion of Palestine but also of Azerbaijan, Ibrahimoglu
told the round table.
Commenting on the French National Assembly's adoption of the bill
criminalizing denial of the "Armenian genocide", Ibrahimoglu has
described it as a position of the West towards Muslims.
"At present the West wants to disintegrate Islam from inside. They
damage Muslims by awarding Nobel Prize to [Turkish novelist] Orhan
Pamuk. He both recognized the self-styled "Armenian genocide" and
praised Salman Rushdi's The Satanic Verses novel that defamed Holy
Koran," he said.
