[Lucknow after the British brought Enlightenment to India.]

Switzerland is a country where every man and every woman has a vote, every scientist and every idiot too.

We feel deeply ashamed by the result of the ballot on minarets which in my opinion was against Human Rights and against the Swiss Constitution. It is stupid, shameful, ... How many people have been harmed, killed, tortured, maimed, hurt by minarets in Switzerland since the beginning of time?

The Swiss Muslim communities, the Swiss Sunnis, Shias, Ahmadias, Ismailis, have never disturbed the peace. They are made up of hard-working individuals who fear God and try to earn some money, to educate their children and better their life. What complaint is there against them?

Islam has many faces. Muslims are responsible for many bloody pages in the history books, but the worst crimes against humanity have been and are still committed by Christians: The genocides in Middle America and in Germany which seem to suggest that we should be called not humans, but "inhumans". The Crusade is still going on in Palestine and Afghanistan, and against Iran.

Switzerland is now ruled by old age pensioners who hate to see that Switzerland is becoming a multicultural community. I understand what they feel. The old people ignore how many of the doctors, nurses, cleaners serving them are Muslims. If for one single day, the immigrants in Switzerland would stop working, Swiss economy would break down.

We apologize for the stupidity and blindness of my country's citizens and hope that the European Court will strike down the Minarettverbot law.

The Faithful will always be welcome at Palais Kraft!

Christmas is a time of great joy for Christianity and for the rest of humanity great hope that one day Christians potentates will return to the spirit of Bethlehem, where true kings adored a newborn baby.

At Palais Kraft, our Buddhist staff decorated the Christmas trees and thanks to Mrs Schuster we had a wonderful Christmas party.

The Baugesellschaft, Desoto Moveis Ltd, and the Palais Kraft hospitality team wish all our guests, visitors of this website and all living beings Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

We recommend that you adjust the room thermostats initially to 23.5° Celsius (74.3° Fahrenheit) and then increase or decrease the temperature in small steps until you feel comfortably. Any changes will take about two hours to become noticeable. The heating system adjusts to outside temperature. It delivers less heat to the building from late at night until early morning.

Please contact us if your rooms are overheated or too cool for your personal comfort. We care.
