Germany anti-Islam protests: Cologne Cathedral to switch off lights

[Uncle88]

One of Germany's most famous landmarks will go dark on Monday night as thousands people are expected to flood the streets in anti-Islam demonstrations. As the Pegida movement against the so-called "Islamification of the West" has grown, so has opposition to it and Cologne Cathedral's silent protest is set to be one of the most symbolic so far.

It will turn its lights off for almost three hours during the rally, following the example of the Semperoper concert hall in Dresden, where the protests have been centred. In December, more than 17,000 people marched on the city with the "Patriotic Europeans against the Islamification of the West", filling the city's historic square singing Christmas carols and waving German flags.

Protesters marched in several German cities on Monday against higher levels of immigration and what they see as the growing influence of Islam. The marchers took to the streets in defiance of an appeal from Chancellor Angela Merkel to spurn rallies she views as racist. Some 18-thousand people, the biggest number so far, turned out in Dresden on Monday but similar rallies in Berlin and the western city of Cologne were heavily outnumbered by counter-protesters. They accuse the demonstrators of fanning racism and intolerance
