This crime is identical to this story from back in April 2015. How many such Muslim attacks on migrant Christians go unreported?
I wrote at that time:
The Muslim attack on Christians in a migrant boat crossing the Mediterranean is a sign of our times, a dark symbol and metaphor for a future which is rapidly beginning to come into focus:
We are all in a boat together, but there is a band of people in our boat which seeks to throw the rest of us overboard, to kill us, to sink and drown us, to eliminate us.
The fate of the murdered Christian migrants is the image of our future, unless we too form a human chain to resist our attackers.
“Italian Police: Muslim Migrants Threw Christians Overboard,” By Hada Messia, Livia Borghese and Jason Hanna, AINA, November 20, 2015:
Rome (CNN) — Muslims who were among migrants trying to get from Libya to Italy in a boat this week threw 12 fellow passengers overboard — killing them — because the 12 were Christians, Italian police said Thursday.
Italian authorities have arrested 15 people on suspicion of murdering the Christians at sea, police in Palermo, Sicily, said.
The original group of 105 people left Libya on Tuesday in a rubber boat. Sometime during the trip north across the Mediterranean Sea, the alleged assailants — Muslims from the Ivory Coast, Mali and Senegal — threw the 12 overboard, police said.
Other people on the voyage told police that they themselves were spared “because they strongly opposed the drowning attempt and formed a human chain,” Palermo police said.
The boat was intercepted by an Italian navy vessel, which transferred the passengers to a Panamanian-flagged ship. That ship docked in Palermo on Wednesday, after which the arrests were made, police said.
The 12 who died were from Nigeria and Ghana, police said.
Thousands of people each year make the dangerous sea journey from North Africa to Europe’s Mediterranean coast, often aboard vessels poorly equipped for the trip. Many of them attempt the voyage to flee war and poverty in Africa and the Middle East.
More than 10,000 people have arrived on Italian shores from Libya since last weekend alone, according to the Italian coast guard.
Many die each year while attempting the voyage, often when boats capsized. Last year at least 3,200 died trying to make the trip. Since 2000, according to the International Organization for Migration, almost 22,000 people have died fleeing across the Mediterranean.
The IOM reported Thursday the latest boat to sink in trying to make the journey. Only four people survived from the original 45 on board, bringing the estimated death toll so far this year close to a thousand.

manuel paleologus says
All these muslims should not be accepted in the western world. They are not immigrants, they are not refugees, but they are invaders. How the western world leaders can be so naïve and dummy not to see what is happening. This is an Islamic invasion with a direct goal-the destruction of the western world from within.
The Western world encourages the homosexual union, support abortion, the demographic rate is extremely low. When the people from West will rise and change their life toward a good moral balance, then we can hope for survival.
Freedom does not mean to accept self-destruction. Islam is on the attack against the free world. And this started in the 7th century with Mohammed. Islam is not e religion but a demonic cult.
islam is against humanity and in fact is for destruction.
Wiederganger says
Let’s keep things in perspective, shall we? Homosexual marriage is absolutely deplored in Islam, abortion has nothing at all to do with jihad and the ‘demographic rate’ is just a consequence of economics, non muslims often have the sense not to breed out of control or more than they can provide for.. The moral abyss we are sinking into which is empowering our enemy is ‘PC’, nothing more nothing less. We are in fact experiencing a time when even hardline Christians are realising that loving our enemy or turning the other cheek is not going to pull us through this.. This is, in effect, world war three and our mission is not to preserve the faith or our judeochristian morals or anything like that. What we must focus on is the survival of our people and the destruction of theirs, that is what war means.
Noel says
Don’t you understand what manuel paleologus is saying? There used to be a time when sex lead to unplanned children. Homosexuality, abortion, birth control and women’s careers have reduced the birthrate for the indiginous people. British people have 1.8 children per couple, muslims have average 8. Most European countries will be outnumbered eventually unless we breed more and/or stop immigration.
Miao Zedong says
In my younger years I had been impressed by the wave of terrorism (Munich, RAF, Brigade Rosse). I didn’t see Palestinians as muslims but just another “revolutionary” group.
I remember vividly reading this and I wondered why at that time:
“On October 7, 1985, four men representing the Palestine Liberation Front (PLF) hijacked the Italian MS Achille Lauro liner off the coast of Egypt, as she was sailing from Alexandria to Ashdod, Israel. The hijacking was masterminded by Muhammad Zaidan, leader of the PLF. One 69-year-old Jewish American man in a wheelchair, Leon Klinghoffer, was murdered by the hijackers and thrown overboard.”
I wisend up in the mean time and Leon Klinghoffer lives on in my memory. May his family found inner peace.
Truth says
I agree

Ex-muslim says
They are not savages. They are performing holy jihad and non-muslims are being deceived all over the world. Trust me. Muslims will have no problem if the rest of humanity on planet Earth, which is about 6 billion people ( excluding muslims) have to be murdered, all of them. They will really murder them all with smile on their faces. islam and muslims who follow it are that evil. Trust me they are.
Champ says
They ARE savages, and there is nothing “holy” about jihad. These savage criminals may call it holy, but of course it is not–it’s pure evil.
Ex-muslim says
Their pedophile “prophet” and their demonic evil allah calls it a ‘holy war’ or jihad and they believe it very, very, very deeply. In their eyes, they are not savages, the are (as muslims) the purest of all human beings and they are simply doing the will of their blood-thirsty allah when they are murdering people in jihad. Trust me, islam is far, far more evil and far more dangerous than anyone can imagine. Only people who are ex-muslims and few others like Robert Spencer or Bill Warner can understand it fully.
Ex-muslim says
Champ,
They are a thousand times worse than savages! At least savages can be rational at times but muslims are not rational at all as they are brain-washed by the evil islam they are blindly following.
Avenger says
Ex-Muslim is correct Champ. I’d say 99% of Muslims are not savages but are cold and calculated killers. Muslims enroll in European and North Americas best universities and colleges, learning the culmination of centuries of Western thought and knowledge, all the while plotting it’s destruction. Obama is a great example, college educated, feigns love of nation and being Christian, then starts racial division at home and turmoil overseas. He’s very responsible for the death of thousands in the Middle East ( mainly Christians ) and the invasion of Europe with millions of young Muslim men. He’s Muslim and a cold, calculated killer.
BC says
Also they think that ‘god’ will welcome them into paradise for doing it, which shows how insane they are.

Its a powerful metaphor, even brain dead over educated liberals can follow the thought. Its a metaphor that should get wide exposure….

Indeed, things to come.
J says
I think, it’s a repeat of the April story, quoting CNN…
TheBuffster says
I’m sure the AINA story is a rehash of the event from April 2015. I mean, how could all the numbers and so many of the particulars be exactly the same? 105 people on board, 12 thrown overboard by Muslims, 15 arrested for the crimes, other Christians saving themselves by forming a human chain…
Same incident, rehashed by the Assyrian International News Agency in November 2015.
Jaladhi says
And we will be giving shelter to these scumbags who threw fellow migrants who were Christians overboard!! Disgusting – but that is normal for Muslims!1 No Muslim should be given any asylum to Muslims.
PRCS says
Well, that article MUST be wrong.
After all, HRC said, “Muslims are peaceful and tolerant people and have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism.”
Jaladhi says
OOPs :
“And we will be giving shelter to these scumbags who threw fellow migrants who were Christians overboard!! Disgusting – but that is normal for Muslims! No Muslim should ever be given any asylum in the West.”
Mad Max says
If this is true those who murdered the innocent should be hung no mercy for the wicked !!!
PRCS says
Do you really think the other Muslims in the boat (read ALL of the other people in the boat) are going to ID them?
Peggy says
They probably joined them. Who knows what actually happened. I doubt it was only 15 and can’t figure out how the authorities managed to know who it was.
The dead are not talking and we all know that Muslims are all liars so it wouldn’t surprise me if they all cheered them on and made it quite clear to the victims that they can’t fight.
TheBuffster says
“Italian authorities have arrested 15 people on suspicion of murdering the Christians at sea, police in Palermo, Sicily, said…”
“…Other people on the voyage told police that they themselves were spared “because they strongly opposed the drowning attempt and formed a human chain,” Palermo police said”
It looks to me that enough Christians/non-Muslims survived through arm-linking tactics, and that they have identified the killers, who have been arrested.
They hopefully don’t need any Muslims to testify.
Mad max says
Hang them all .
IndianTiger says
This is what these muslim savages do. From their self-created hellholes they flee for Christian lands but kill fellow Christians during the journey. The western world is bent on committing suicide by accepting this garbage as “refugees”.
Jaladhi says
I wonder where are those “millions” of peaceful Muslim in the West at least if not all over the world protesting such “devilish” behavior of their fellow Muslims?? And where are those lefty liberals who never hold Muslims responsible for their barbaric atrocities?? Are they listening, watching or they are in hibernation until it blows over( or thrown overboard in the sea)!!
And we want to admit these people in our countries!1 Never!
Charli Main says
I´m still waiting for the millions of ” British” Muslims to swarm on to the streets condemning the recent mass murders in Paris.
Those oceans of banners reading ” not in our name ” ” this is not Islam ” ” Jahadists murderers shame Islam ” etc—etc–etc
So, where are all these ” moderate” ” tolerant ” ” peaceful ” Muslims that are constantly shoved down the throats of all us nasty, racist, bigoted, xenophobic islamophobes ???????
Jaladhi says
Only in the minds of our lying and deceiving media and so called leaders!!
If these kinds of leaders existed in the earlier times we would all be Muslims fighting each other with the blessings from the monster allah!
Sam S. Ara says
B..b…b…b…but I don’t understand?! {sniffles}. Why didn’t the murderers talk with the Christians, and reason with them, maybe put together a little circle where everyone could feel safe and talk about their feelings and their difficult childhoods and Islamaphobia and rainbows and butterflies and unicorns and ice cream…and…and…and….{breaks down sobbing}. {Straightens up, wipes his eyes, clears his throat}. Well, maybe the people who did this were just really sad and scared and oppressed.
WHY don’t these stories make it to the top of the front page news of Western media?! Disgusting.
Jeremiah says
Islam is a sick sect. We have allowed them to behave like dogs for 1400 years.
We can prevent further attacks by raiding mosques, jailing Imams and identifying those who teach the Koran. Then we don’t need to respond, we don’t need to fight it and we don’t need to defeat it. There is no reason for people to continue to live in fear except for Political Correctness. There is no need to fight all muslims, only those who object to the closure of mosques. There is no need to kill on a large scale, only those who are willing to defend Islam. It is Islam and its teaching which is our enemy! All this talk about trying to find terrorists is nonsense. All this fear is misplaced. Only Political Correctness can kill us. No need to “flag” anybody on a terror watch list. Bring them all in for questioning. Just close the mosques! The mosques contain the terror entire network that we are looking for. No terror network exists outside the mosques, so why are we avoiding mosques?
pongidae rex says
So that means they need to put the perps in jail for a very long time, at huge expense, as soon as they step ashore. Of course this can only happen after there is a long and very expensive trial, made all the harder because witnesses will all want to disappear, or will be made to ‘disappear’ by their Muslim brethren in what they will see as a political trial.
This is the tyranny of Politically Correct governance. Europe is the future of the USA if we do not wake up and wake up fast. Obama is in sprint mode to make irreversible changes to this country before his term runs out.
To those who have been asleep; the UN High Commission on Human Rights is now chaired by Saudi Arabia. This commission dictates policy on refugees and immigration to the EU. Under Obama, it is dictating policy to the USA. Only congress and the Atlantic ocean is preventing an EU-like mass migration of many hundreds of thousands of Muslims to the USA to live on welfare for the rest of their lives at taxpayer expense.
Please wake up. This is not about racism and bigotry. This is about survival of Western civilization.

Have I missed something here? Where is the bit in the report that states that the Police held all this lot on suspicion of murder, subject to interrogation?

No, obama, it isn’t the *toddlers* that we’re worried about–please shut up!! Wow I can’t believe he said that on national television. What, does he think that the American are stupid? …how dare he speak about these dangerous muslim men, and women, so dismissively …grrr!! Someone please pinch me and tell me that I’m dreaming …oh wait, obama is more a devilish nightmare.
miriamrove says
Yea. And this is why I am all for Ben Carson. Trump is good too. m
Champ says
Hi, Miriamrove,
I looove Ben Carson, but IMO, he’s too softspoken. And Trump may have some good ideas, but he is an unrefined baffoon, and completely unpresidential. That guy will NEVER, EVER get my vote.
Hey if I had to vote tomorrow, then I would definitely go with Ted Cruz! I think he’s the total package in what I’m looking for in a President.
Take care 🙂
Peggy says
Obama looks refined and presidential but he is still the worse choice ever and very dangerous.
Why does someone have to look presidential to have the best interests of his or her country at heart?
I am not endorsing anyone because I don’t know the candidates’ policies but just because someone doesn’t look presidential should not disqualify him.
Angemon says
Champ posted:

Hi Champ.
You know the saying: speak softly and carry a big stick :D.
As things are now, Carson would get my vote, were I American. The democrats must be thinking of him as a viable candidate, seeing how they are doing their worst to paint him a a liar.

Dear Champ , I wish it were a develish nightmare , but it is real ! And the “man” in the White House , he is an ANTI-CHRIST . Destroyer of everything good and decent ; he is possessed . The BEAST is RULING .
TrueToo says
I recently did a Google search using a variety of keywords to try to find out whether there was a trial and whether there were convictions after those first horrific murders in April. I even scouted for Italian articles and translated them but found absolutely nothing beyond a few reports at the time of the murders.
Seems those Islamic barbarians were freed to carry on their journey into Europe. If that’s true, shame on Italy.
And I guess we can expect the same with this new atrocity.
TheDane says
Execute these servants of the devil!! All moslems that enter Europe from now on should be met by a gun and demanded to return to their heathen countries! They are most likely all jihadis and decapitators! Why does the lame MSM not report on these matters?

dumbledoresarmy says
It isn’t just that Muslim ‘refugees’ are throwing the Christian refugees out of the boats.
The same thing is also happening with UN refugee camps in the Levant.
If a Christian turns up in a UN-run camp, chances are that the Muslim ‘refugees’, who numerically dominate, will threaten, attack and harass him or her…driving the Christian out.
So when western governments turn up at the UN camps to select candidates for humanitarian visas, there are, surprise surprise, few or NO Christians there to get visas. Why? **Because they have been chased away** and are eking out an existence elsewhere, on the streets, or in the churches of their coreligionists, the minority Christians in Jordan and Lebanon and even in Turkey, who are struggling to care for their displaced brethren on a shoestring, sans any UN assistance or notice whatsoever.
Incidentally, right now, the UNHCR is headed up by a Muslim. He is going to do *diddly-squat* to make things safer or easier for Christian refugees from anywhere to gain entry to the West. His priority will be to make sure that the Muslims on his books get all or the lion’s share of any Golden Tickets to the West that are on offer. Because as a Muslim his job is to further the cause of Islam and the benefit and wellbeing of his fellow Muslims; and to push the non-Muslims to the narrowest part of the road, just like it says in the Hadiths.
Sam Hawkins says
That’s terrible, dda. The very minorities that are the most vulnerable and most in need of help are being punished by the UNHCR, the agency that should be making their welfare a top priority 🙁

Not surprising to me Sam , because the U.N. is promoting the New World Order . ( or the rule of satan himself ) .

WARNING
This is the same words, write up as occurred in earlier in April, using very much the same phrases.
http://news.yahoo.com/aid-agency-says-41-migrants-feared-dead-sea-142032667.html
Whether the recent incident happened or not seems to need nuch more verification, as credibility is important.
I certainly do entertain that this probably does happen,, as if a clean sweep against Christians are done, then the dead tell no tales, and the rest stay “stum”
I was going to use this information on a very active blog with links, and to other issues, but I would have been shredded, by the immigrant multicultural supporters if they found any fault.
************************
It would seem for some that the Christians should not have said they would “be in Europe by Christmas”
For the sake of inclusiveness,and their lives perhaps those Christians should not have been on board.
Perhaps the view of the Human Rights Commissioner,—– guides —-, that to be inclusive, would work best by only taking in only muslims, so Christmas (names celebrations) can be avoided for the sake of inclusiveness for the “migrant settlement agency”. Then like that boat Christians or Christmas then would not be thrown overboard
Seems strange that multicultural practices do not seem so inclusive. You bow down to basically sharia practice of avoiding blasphemy of islamic ideology while in the name of multi-culture and taking Government money that is demanded from taxpayers
********
(A little tongue in cheek)
We must maintain our credibility so please use the right time
Markus Lukas says
That’s not a boat.
It’s a landing craft headed for Salerno or Taranto.
? says
Is anyone really surprised? To be honest I think that this is all we can expect out of these filth, and I feel bad for the GOOD Arabs and Syrians and Palestinians the Muslims probably threw them off the boat when they found out that they were decent people.
Also how much do you want to bet that the ones who were against the drowning were 1. Non Muslims or 2. Non Syrian, Arab, or Palestinian? I’ll start at $50.
This is the reaping 666
Matthieu Baudin says
It is thanks to Jihad Watch that I get to hear many of these significant press reports that appear to be considered un-newsworthy outside of the country in which they occur. It is an appalling level of self censorship that news services adhere to because of their blinkered attitudes and false assumptions regarding traditional Islam.
Ralph puts it well; we are the trash that is to be thrown overboard.
Kepha says
The people thrown overboard were from Nigeria and Ghana. Not only were they Kufr, they were Abid as well.
Of course. Islam is peaceful and tolerant, and oh so free of racism.
Semeru says
This reported attack happened last April, and not another new incident
The April incident reported by the Times of Israel
1) Fifteen African Muslim migrants who were arrested by Italian authorities on Thursday for allegedly throwing 12 fellow passengers into the Mediterranean
2) There where 105 passengers aboard
The new report claims
Muslims who were among migrants trying to get from Libya to Italy in a boat this week threw 12 fellow passengers overboard — killing them — because the 12 were Christians, Italian police said Thursday.
Italian authorities have arrested 15 people on suspicion of murdering the Christians at sea, police in Palermo, Sicily, said.
The original group of 105 people left Libya on Tuesday in a rubber boat. Sometime during the trip north across the Mediterranean Sea, the alleged assailants — Muslims from the Ivory Coast, Mali and Senegal — threw the 12 overboard, police said.
So what we have is both reports state the same amount of murdering moslems 15, the same amount of murdered christians 12, the same amount of passengers 105
The Times of Israel also reported
In a separate incident, the International Organization of Migration said on Thursday that four migrants who were picked up in recent days by the Italian Navy reported a shipwreck to aid workers after arriving in the Italian port of Trapani Thursday. Their boat had originally been carrying 45 people; the others are presumed dead.
The “new report” Is clear evidence that it is only a rehash of the original incident in April
The IOM reported Thursday the latest boat to sink in trying to make the journey. Only four people survived from the original 45 on board, bringing the estimated death toll so far this year close to a thousand.
Because the death as of August 2015 is way over 2600
Mr spencer should fact check
simpleton says
Good on you Semeru,
As I also noticed above at 3.41pm,
I also e mailed them, over 5 hours ago and so far I see no re-edit for the error, though I am aware that it is a labour of dedication to keep this site working, with a lot of good works.
Initially I do not blame them, as it is easy to follow some-one’s error, but a correction should be done as the source.
http://www.aina.org/news/20151120034851.htm
has obviously plagiarized the April news reports.
My yahoo link I put up there of April at 3.41pm, just parallels many of the words and phrases as you mention are taken from that link, and barely paraphrased, if not identical.
It is a pity, as this post can be used against us, despite that it was in the original a most cruel crime, and I would not be surprised, may even still be perpetrated against Christians and others.
It may seem niggly, but if used in comments on other sites, it will be scrutinized. More than likely it will be found out and then it sets one so far backwards, as any error is just thrown back at you, smearing one’s credibility, as they see it, twisting it and so enhancing their knowledge and credibility.
Credibility is very important for this site.
Sam Hawkins says
I feel as if it is partly my fault, for not donating to Jihad Watch. I imagine they have just enough money to pay the bills for hosting and cyber defense, but not enough to pay for editorial help.
Sucks as money is really tight for me right now. But I have JW on my list of “donate to” organizations as soon as business picks up again.
albert says
We know this is going on, left wing journalists will ignore it, Christians are routinely persecuted raped and murdered every day throughout the muslim world including those considered as moderate allies, when will we hear western Christian leaders defend their brethren.
Chris Cross says
So let me see if I understand this. The Christians were thrown overboard by the Muslims. So Italy is left with the Muslims to integrate into their country. I can see those Muslims are going to get on well with the other Christians in Italy. Oh. my bad. That’s not the plan! Italy wants an all Muslim nation. Oh, well there will be peace then, finally when all of the Christians and atheists and other religions are purged from Italy. But wait a minute, no there won’t be peace between the Sunnis and the other Islamic tribes. So once the Sunnis exterminate all of the other Muslims, then there will be peace. And from there they can launch terror raids on neighbouring lands and do the same thing all over again.
Wait a minute, hasn’t this been going on for 1400 years? No, couldn’t possibly have been happening this way. The rest of the non-Islamic world is not this stupid. Only 1.57 billion Muslims isn’t that many in 1400 years. How many countries is it that have been converted? About 50 out of 195 is it?

The Muslims aren’t at 1437, because it was around this tiime that the Renaissance started in Europe. It would be an insult to Stone Age people to say they’re stuck in the Stone Age.
shmuel ur says
I was going to write about it and tried to follow the sources. From what I can tell this is a new report of the April incident. The crime is not identical, it is the same crime being reported.
Are you sure a new identical one happened? Your new report quote CNN and CNN is from April
Hate says
People websites like this are purposefully duping you because they do it for the money. Being hateful and inciting hatred gets your advertising dollar. If they just wrote the truth you wouldn’t come to this website. Please if you plan to visit these shitty websites, turn on adblocker, go to your browsers options and search for a program to block the ads. Don’t click on any links. If this website was to have any credibility and was a pro-christian website then it could just run on donations but it can’t because the owner is a vile excuse for a human. The owner is most likely a KKK member
