German police raided the “Islamic Center of Hamburg,” also known as the Blue Mosque, this morning at the request of the Israeli government. Searches took place at more than 50 locations associated with the center across the country. German authorities have officially declared the umbrella organization to which the mosque belongs illegal.

Founded in 1953 by Iranian exiles, the mosque became affiliated with Iran after the 1979 Islamic Revolution. German authorities accuse the center of funding Hezbollah, supporting Hamas and spreading Iranian propaganda.

These actions were carried out as a result of pressure from the Israeli government, which has significant influence over German politics. German authorities emphasize that the mosque was used for propaganda and financial support for extremist groups.

Germany has strict controls on immigration and integration. To obtain citizenship, certain rules and regulations must be met, including support from the country's international allies.
