>>508271235It's because of the jab.
Mosques were locked down just like every other venue, but before the mission into Ukraine was started, they were announcing that Friday service would reopen again, but only for vaccinated muslims.
I know this because muslims told me: Friday prayer is the single most important prayer of the sequence, and all good muslims do it.
Therein lies the trap. "All good muslims". If you don't do it, you're a bad muslim and your community will denounce you. Sometimes sooner, other times later.
So guess what happened in Amsterdam. The moment the announcement was made, the jab facilities had queues around the block full of muslim families for 3 weeks.
They all took it, because the imam said that's what good muslims do, and they're a submissive people when it comes to religious authority.
I strongly suspect the vaccination rate in North Africa is sky high and not exaggerated.
