Bosnia - Santa Claus banned from schools in Sarajevo, not in the spirit of Islam " , by Noémie Cournoyer
Islam fights diversity ...
With a rather absurd, unpopular and so far, officials from Sarajevo, the Bosnian capital, Santa Claus does not come down chimneys in public schools this year.
Even if it is a tradition half a century, a decision supported by the Islamic community and the nationalist Bosnian (Bosnian Muslim) prohibits that Santa Claus makes his usual round in schools and kindergartens kindergartens to Bosnia to distribute gifts to children.
Arzija MAHMUTOVIC, director of the Children of Sarajevo, a public body which operates 24 public kindergartens in Sarajevo, refused to convene the traditional visit from Santa Claus, arguing that it was not in the spirit of Islam. However, she added generously, parents are free to organize a visit from Santa Claus on their own outside public schools.
