Something Quintessentially Swiss v Minarets

I saw a news feature on BBC World this evening about how some Swiss politicians are seeking to ban minarets in Switzerland as a way of making a stand against the perceived increased influence of (militant) Islam globally.

I did a quick Google search using the words "Switzerland", "minaret" and "ban" and numerous news articles were found, including this one from Al Jazeera.

So, will it be

OR ?

That's something the Swiss will have to decide for themselves.
