Kuwaiti Sheikh Salem al-Tawil on Sumud Flotilla activists:

Different religions, different sects, and disbelievers. What did they unite upon? They tell you they are heroes.

Did they go out with the permission of the ruler? They did not go out with the permission of the ruler.

Fines: €300–€3,000 (no criminal charges).

Mosque Financing: Muslim associations (which lack formal state recognition) must disclose all funding sources. Foreign funding considered a “threat to Italian values” may be banned or frozen.
