Mehr als 60 islamische Glaubens(ver)führer in Kenia haben beschlossen, sich gegen das dortige staatliche Programm zur Verringerung von HIV-Infektionen zu stellen und gegen die Verwendung von Kondomen vorzugehen:
Muslim leaders in Kenya’s North Eastern Province have resolved to campaign against the promotion of condoms as a means of preventing HIV.
”A lot of money is being wasted to poison our community … a huge amount of money is spent on buying condoms, buying immorality,” Sheikh Mohamud Ali, of Garissa district, told IRIN/PlusNews.
The leaders agreed to actively preach against the use and public promotion of condoms as a strategy to contain the pandemic and prevent pregnancy. They also agreed to oppose the distribution of condoms in villages and educational institutions across the northeast.
Sie empfehlen stattdessen unter anderem Fastenkuren, fleißiges Beten und Scheuklappen:
The leaders expressed their view that the best way for the youth to avoid HIV was through the observance of Islamic teachings such as fasting, regular prayer and shunning extramarital affairs. They advised men to avoid looking at women, who should dress modestly.
Welche Auswirkungen die Gehirnwäsche hat, erklärt uns ein Taxifahrer aus Garissa:
Abdi Welli, [...] agreed with the clerics that condoms should be banned. He believed the widespread myth that condoms and contraceptives were laced with the HI virus. “We know the condoms are not safe … if you want to contract the virus that causes AIDS, then use [a condom],” he said. “After all, we have heard in the past that the Western world is using the condom to eliminate Africans, and Muslims in particular.”
