It occurred to me that one could even view some of this as a question of 
promoting the overthrow of the government.  Maybe the thought is that Islam 
is fine as long as you don't suggest that Sharia law should replace the 
constitutional government currently in place. Minarets might be seen as more 
of a suggestion along those lines than mere mosques.

In any case, I can see some wisdom in restricting the freedom of speech of 
an organization devoted to the overthrow of democratic government, religion 
or not. Which is not to say all Islam is this, but certainly much of it is.
