Leader of Italy's eurosceptic party Lega, Matteo Salvini, heavily criticised Islam in an interview.

Salvini said that Islam sees women as inferior and is a law instead of a religion. As a law it is incompatible with Italian values, he said. Asked about mosques, Salvini said he could shut down illegal mosques.

Salvini could become Italy's next Prime Minister as he takes part in a popular centre-right bloc in Italy's elections. In several regions he already leads the polls and his support is growing.

Comment: One of the reasons for the popularity of sharia law among European Muslim populations is that it preserves family rights that have been gutted in the West by feminist policy. Sharia fills the vacuum left by gender policies that have destroyed the family and thus European values. Ironically (or not), feminism and Islamism both politicize sex and gender for the purpose of political "empowerment". As long as European values remain neutered by feminist activism, Europeans will be stuck between a rock and a hard place, fighting a multiculturalism that threatens their own legal sovereignty and cultural identity, while Europe cannibalizes its own values on the altar of feminism.
