What Are The ‘Tiktok Islamism’ Groups That The German Government Banned
In a major action against Islamic groups promoting Islamic radicalism and engaging in unconstitutional activities in Germany, the German government banned two Islamic groups, namely, the Islamic Centre Hamburg (IZH), accused of supporting Iran and Hezbollah, and Muslim Interactive. The German government’s move is significant because groups like Muslim Interactive have been using social media, particularly TikTok, to call for a caliphate (Islamic rule) in Germany and to spread radical ideas among young people. German authorities have described this as “Modern TikTok Islamism”, a strategy to influence young people through social media. The action was taken as a necessary measure to safeguard Germany’s democracy, which was being threatened by these groups. With the stringent action, the German government has made it clear that it will make no compromise in combating Islamic radical activities.
