Greek government fears jihad attack if mosque not built in Athens

Apr 6, 2016 11:57 pm By Robert Spencer

What makes the Greek government assume that a centrally-appointed imam would not teach “extremism”? Greek officials assume that because they believe that the Qur’an teaches peace, and that “the dark and unofficial places of worship” are twisting and hijacking the true peaceful teachings of the Religion of Peace. Do these officials really think the Brussels jihad attacks, and those in Paris and elsewhere, took place because Muslims in France and Belgium were frequenting “dark and unofficial places of worship” instead of government-sanctioned mosques? They will be rudely awakened, but by then it will probably be too late.

GREECE/

“Greek government fear they will be at risk of terrorist attack if a proposed mosque is not built in Athens,” by Corey Charlton, MailOnline, April 6, 2016 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

The Greek government fears it could be subjected to terror attacks if a taxpayer-funded mosque is not constructed in Athens.

Officials claim it would allow Muslims to practise their religion under the auspices of a centrally-appointed imam that would ensure it does not stray into extremism.

This would be preferable to the dozens of basements in the capital which have been converted into makeshift mosques by Muslim migrants, they added.

According to Kathimerini, an official from the Education and Religious Affairs Ministry said they must move quickly to build the mosque, which had been announced in 2006 but is being delayed by appeals.

The official said: ‘It is exactly because of the recent terrorist attacks that we have to move quickly to construct the mosque in Athens.

‘Every day that we do not have an official mosque and imam in Athens, we pay for in the increased risk of the radicalisation of Muslims in the dark and unofficial places of worship.

‘When you do not have official places of worship, who can you speak with?’…

        There were also the brave Greeks and their allies who took back Greece from the Muslim conquerors in the 19th century. Too bad they have died, as well–along with all too much of their spirit.

        Just a couple of years ago Greece was standing strong against this:

      Islam is a dangerous and formidable enemy. Muslims exploit every opportunity to the full and will not concede an inch of any ground they have gained, without putting up a ferocious fight, to the death if need be. Appeasement only strengthens and emboldens them further and inspires them to aim and achieve even greater targets. A mega mosque in Athens will be a huge victory and yet more territory gained. It will fuel further Islamist ambition and expansion. The Islamist are on the march. They feel that Europe is on the backfoot. Here is a clear example of how the so-called moderates and the extemists are working in collusion, whether by design or not doesn’t matter – it a natural harmonization and coming together of two different branches from the same Islamic free with common roots and a singular aim. Moderates are using terrorist attacks in Europe to coerce and blackmail and strengthen campaign for a new mosque. Dangerous, dangerous enemy using every stategy at its disposal. Bad idea to let them in in the first place; worse idea to keep bringing them in and appeasing them in the vain hope for peace and protection.

        This huge new mosque will make a wonderful warehouse for ammunition, arms, knives and all the other exciting hardware which nowadays is essential equipment for all devout Muslims intent on fulfilling the directives of Mohammed (piss be upon him).
        Let’s hope they build it high enough so the Athenians can enjoy the ritual Friday afternoon spectacular throwing of gays from the rooftop.

    Build a mosque in Athens as soon as Hagia Sophia is returned to the Orthodox Church.

    In the 1920’s the League of Nations arranged a population transfer where all the Greeks in Asia Minor went to Greece, and all the mahometans in Greece went to Turkey.

    THIS is when the Seven Churches of Asia Minor (see Revelation) were destroyed.

        @ Yia Yia Denise

        As a descendent of the few surviving Greek refugees who were massacred by the Muslim Turks in your ancestral homeland of Anatolia, I ask your forgiveness for re-opening this wound.
        Countless people are unaware of the bloodbath the Muslims subjected the Greeks to, at Smyrna.

        Following is only one of the thousands of eye witness reports of the slaughter of Greek Christians.

        ” In September 1922, Mustapha Kemal, the revolutionary ruler of Turkey, led his troops into Smyrna, which at that time was a predominantly Christian city. While a FLOTILLA OF 27 ALLIED WARSHIPS—INCLUDING THREE AMERICAN DESTROYERS—–looked on, the Turks indulged in an orgy of pillage, rape and slaughter, which the Western powers condoned—–EAGER TO PROTECT THEIR OIL AND TRADE INTERESTS IN TURKEY—-through their silence and refusal to intervene.
        Turkish forces then set fire to the legendary city and totally destroyed it.
        Smyrna 1922. The Destruction of a City. Professor M H Dobkin

        After the rape of Smyrna, the Turks changed the city´s name to Izmir and now claim that all the witnesses were liars and that their take over of the city was a peaceful event.

        • Falsafa says

          Apr 7, 2016 at 3:06 pm

          the setting fire by the Turkish Army to our beautiful city of Izmir is lie. rather I would advise you to read Toynbee to understand the massive suffering and scorched earth policy employed by the invading Greek armies in western anatolia under the auspices of the British.

          ……………………

          What rot. By the time Muslims destroyed Christian-majority Smyrna, the Greek troops were long gone.

          The fact is that the terrible destruction of Smyrna was the last spasm of the Armenian Genocide–which had been going on since the late 19th century in a series of waves–where Turkish Muslims slaughtered well over a million Christians, including Armenians, Greeks, Assyrians, and Levantines.

          The fact is that the Greeks intervened hoping to save Greek Christians–it did not work.

          An excellent book on the subject–besides the one cited by Charli Main–is “Paradise Lost”, by Giles Milton.

          And one point, Charli–while the Western fleet *was* shamefully slow to act, they finally did, under the auspices of a brave American aid worker. Virtually all of those non-Muslims who did survive Smyrna were brought out of that death trap on these ships, and brought to safety in Greece.

        I personally HAVE NO criticism of the men and officers of the flotilla anchored in Smyrna bay. Military men have to obey the orders of their respective governments and the officers were under orders not to interfere.
        As for Falsafa,, he is a perfect example of why I have TOTAL contempt for Muslims- They NEVER admit to wrongdoing or making mistakes.
        Falsafa´s Seljuk Turk ancestors were responsible for the rape, murder and enslavement of over 80 million ethnic Anatolian Christians since the start of their invasion in the 11th century´
        I would have more respect for the man if he had the balls to say ” yes, my ancestors did bad things and made mistakes, but I am not my ancestors. Don´t blame me for what they did “

          You will be telling me next that the ” orthodox Christian supremacists ” INVITED your ancestors to loot, rape and murder their way across CHRISTIAN Anatolia and go on to attack Europe.

    Just another step in the Muslim re-occupation of Europe. The Muslim invaders of Anatolia drove the Greeks out of their 3000 year old homeland and then went on to occupy Greece itself for centuries.
    Now, not only are these Muslim scum being allowed to re-settle in Greece, the Greeks are building Mosques for them. Greece´s suicide by islam is guaranteed.

          Take Falsafa for instance, I wonder. Before he sits down and writes, he hums the commercial: “Things go better with Uro-Cola, things go better with Camel-P…” Then he sits down with a warmed a cup and cheerfully types away.

          It’s just a thought, but it would or could explain his views.

          ” …genuine, reputable scholars such as Sheilh Hamza Yusuf, Shabir Ally l. ”

          Ah, you mean deliberate apologists and their failed attempts at whitewashing the tenets of your baleful creed ? Not to mention barefaced liars ? It’s too late, Falsafa. The cat jumped out of the bag on 9/11, and has been screeching and clawing ever since.

          *We* *have* *read* *your* *koran*. So don’t waste everyone’s time with your silly and doomed attempts to whitewash your foul cult.

          ”This would help to perhaps lighten the burden of hate you seem to be so painfully encumbered with.”

          Well, **of course** I hate islam ! Any decent person with morals and ethics, does. I also hate all mohammedans who attempt to ”make all the world for ‘allah”’.

          Falsafa: face facts. You accept and believe in a brutal, evil, vicious creed. Use your brain, your God given bullshit meter, and get out of it. It’s not doing you any good, as can be seen from your sad and pathetic attempts to whitewash evil.

    If they do give in to the demands of islamofascists then give it a 360 degree ocean view. There’s a nice little island just south of the city.

    Maybe build a prison on the same Island so that the truly devout won’t have to travel too far. As we all know the more devout Muslims are the more likely they will disregard non-Islamic laws and the more demands they make on everyone else for their own privileges and convenience.

    Also keep all of the mosque’s financial dealings on official records available to the public.

    Teaching the true history of a nation to its youth is crucial. The Greeks were dominated by the then Caliphate, Ottoman Empire for centuries. I am pretty sure it was a terrible existence as a Dhimmi nation. They are inviting the same ideology to their midst. They deserve Islam.

    The same is true for us Americans. History of our nation is distorted and the youth have idea how they got their freedom so without knowing they are giving it away faster everday

    Apr 7, 2016 at 9:40 am

    The thinking here by the Greek government defies reason. Their premise is that if we don’t give in with this mosque then underground jihad mosques will spring up. But if mainstream mosques truly don’t preach jihad then how does building one discourage jihad? such an underground movement would have no reliance on a publicly funded mosque. On the other hand, if denying this mosque does in fact lead to jihad then the link between jihad and mainstream islam is established, in which case the d*mn thing shouldn’t be built.

    But even if I failed to grasp the absurdity of the Government’s stance on this mosque in the above paragraph, we can still know one thing for sure. Which is, this is the effect islam is having on the west: If we don’t give in and grant these muslims what they want then they might hurt and kill us. We are in full submission mode here in the west, weak, and lacking moral courage in the face of their religious fascism. This cowardice will cost us dearly, I know this.

    You’re still in risk of terror attacks even if the mosque is built.

    Officials claim it would allow Muslims to practise their religion under the auspices of a centrally-appointed imam that would ensure it does not stray into extremism.

    This would be preferable to the dozens of basements in the capital which have been converted into makeshift mosques by Muslim migrants, they added.

    Huh, what happens if the people frequenting that mosque decide the state-sponsored imam is a “softie” who teaches a perverted version of islam?

    In Greece we have an incompetent communist government which could care less about churches, mosques, temples, lodges, as long as they are able to collect money for….(you know what). The Greek Orthodox Church, the so-called “official” Church of Greece is nearly spiritually dead. Since the clergy are government employees, ‘civil servants’, few of the hierarchy will take a stand, nor do you hear them preaching about the atrocities committed against Christians. In Greece we have need for martyrs which will not be long in coming. Thank you for keeping us informed.

    These Greeks are seriously retarded. Why? Turkish Moslems invaded, pillaged and massacred Greeks fo centuries. Was all that caused by not building mosques for invading Turkish armies? It’s not as if Greeks don’t know this history. Pathetic.

    Does the government of Greece believe that Al Azhar University, the muftis, the grand imams and the ayatollahs of Muslim countries are not ‘extremist’?

    Have they not paid attention to the writings, speeches, sermons and endorsements of the TOP RELIGIOUS LEADERS of the Muslim world?

    Have they heard any of them give a definition of ‘EXTREMISM’?

    The gaping lacuna of ignorance of Islam among Western elites (those in Greece included) amounts to culpable negligence in this 15th year after 9/11.

    Isn’t it time for Western elites to read the Koran, Sira, hadiths, canonical commentaries, Sharia law and manuals of jihad so they can make policy based on fact…not fantasy?

      Sharia law protect non muslim:

      Prohibit killing non Muslim with peace agreement:

      8: 72. Verily, those who believed, and emigrated and strove hard and fought with their property and their lives in the Cause of Allah as well as those who gave (them) asylum and help, – these are (all) allies to one another. And as to those who believed but did not emigrate (to you O Muhammad SAW), you owe no duty of protection to them until they emigrate, but if they seek your help in religion, it is your duty to help them except against a people with whom you have a treaty of mutual alliance, and Allah is the All-Seer of what you do.
      9: 4. Except those of the Mushrikûn with whom you have a treaty, and who have not subsequently failed you in aught, nor have supported anyone against you. So fulfill their treaty to them to the end of their term. Surely Allah loves Al- Mattaqûn
      4: 90. Except those who join a group, between you and whom there is a treaty (of peace), or those who approach you with their breasts restraining from fighting you as well as fighting their own people. Had Allah willed, indeed He would have given them power over you, and they would have fought you. So if they withdraw from you, and fight not against you, and offer you peace, then Allah has opened no way for you against them.
      91. You will find others that wish to have security from you and security from their people. Every time they are sent back to temptation, they yield thereto. If they withdraw not from you, nor offer you peace, nor restrain their hands, take (hold) of them and kill them wherever you find them. In their case, We have provided you with a clear warrant against them.
      Bukhari :: Book 9 :: Volume 83 :: Hadith 49
      Narrated ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr:
      The Prophet said, “Whoever killed a Mu’ahid (a person who is granted the pledge of protection by the Muslims) shall not smell the fragrance of Paradise though its fragrance can be smelt at a distance of forty years (of traveling).”
      Bukhari :: Book 4 :: Volume 53 :: Hadith 391

        …………………….

        Uh huh. If Infidels accept humiliated dhimmi status under the heel of Islam then Muslims *might* let them live–so long as none of the Infidels annoy Muslims in any way, and so long as no rumors are ginned up against them.

        But they are still fair game to kidnap, forcibly marry, and individually murder if Muslims so desire.

        Every place where unfortunate Infidels have fallen under dhimmitue, their numbers have dwindled precipitously.

        This is the status Muslims want to reduce the Greeks to once again.

        Is radical Islam the most broadly disguised present danger to Christians, Jews and non-Muslims? From a young age, Kamal Saleem was recruited by the Muslim Brotherhood, the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) and other radical Muslim groups. His world was turned upside down when a Christian surgeon treated him following a very serious automobile accident that could have killed him. Kamal has since become a man with a mission—an Ambassador for Christ. Join Rabbi Jonathan Bernis as he and Kamal discuss his new DVD series that unveils the threat of Islamic extremism and the hope for Muslim’s redemption.

    Yes, old Tom Foolery at work again! Greece flat out broke the people were unable to even extract their own bank account funds just 18 months ago until Germany said they would mitigate the risk. Who will bail Germany out now?
    No matter. So, Greece builds a beautiful pearly white Mosque that will of course need to be higher than place of worship from other religions and an Imam is hired as a Civil Servant swearing on a stack of Quran’s the he will not teach extremism. The first day he teaches, he teaches Islam and the Greeks accuse him of extremism. His answer of course will be that he did not teach extremism, he taught Islam. Does anyone believe the Greek Government would stupid enough to fire their Civil Service employee. They might? The outcome will be (not might be) RIOTS. They (the Government) will have set the entire situation up.

    “Officials claim it would allow Muslims to practise their religion under the auspices of a centrally-appointed imam that would ensure it does not stray into extremism.”

    Male Norwegian politician raped by asylum seeker says he feels GUILTY that his attacker will now be deported because the man might suffer back in Somalia

    – Norwegian politician says he feels guilty that his rapist was deported
    – Karsten Nordal Hauken was raped by Somali asylum seeker
    – Rapist was convicted and deported after serving his sentence
    – Nordal Hauken writes that he feels sorry for his attacker

      Karsten Normal Hauken has a lot of guilt, and i think this is the reason that Europe is in the state it is in today.

      Norwegian politician felt ‘guilt & responsibility’ after being sodomized by Somali refugee

      “It was I who was the reason why he should not be left in Norway, but rather be late for a very uncertain future in Somalia. He had already served his sentence in prison. Should he now be punished again? And this time much harder?” he pondered.

      He went on to say that “I do not feel anger towards [the perpetrator], for I see him most as a product of an unjust world. A product of an upbringing marked by war and deprivation.” ………

      “I am afraid that no girls want me, and that other men laugh at me. [I’m] afraid that I’ll be perceived as anti-feminist when I say that young men who are struggling should get more attention. But what the hell, we are struggling. We must be seen!” he said.

    Appeasement has been shown over and over as a failure. The only example I can think of is when the English kings paid off the Vikings to stop marauding. Fortunately and happily the Vikings eventually became good Englishmen. We can be sure that the same thing is not going to happen with Muslims who are emphatically against integration and want eventual domination

  27. dumbledoresarmy says

    Apr 7, 2016 at 8:38 pm

    Dear Greece: DON’T build the mosque.

    Whether it’s built or not, the Muslims will wage jihad. If you *do* build it, that is showing weakness, and you will get *more* Jihad, not less.

    So here’s my advice: if there are any mosques in Greece already… surprise-raid them, find the weapons/ drugs/ explosives stashes and DNA traces of wanted criminals and then… *dynamite* them.

    What’s needed now is NOT appeasement but a consistent and determined application of force. If the Mohammedthugs riot, call in the army and shoot to kill. If they riot some more shoot some more. If they shoot at you, then it’s a war, *you’re* on your home turf, *they* are the invading foreign enemy, so… shoot back and shoot to kill the b*st*rds. Afghan Muslim males and Somali Muslim males – who form a substantial component of the massive influx of mostly-Muslim-male immigration-invasion that has hit Greece in recent years – don’t belong in Greece.

      DDA, historic Athens has been free of them (so far):

      “Athens: The Last European Capital Without A Mosque Abandoning Its 300,000 Muslims”

      http://www.mintpressnews.com/athens-last-european-capital-without-mosque/197474/

      Never mind the whinging, appeasing tone of this stupid article.

      Of course there are illegal Mosques, as Mohamedans gather in garages and other underground areas–but thankfully no supremacist Mosques–yet.

      I’m glad Greeks have been resisting.

      There must have been Mosques there when Greece was under the Muslim heel–but the Greeks must have had the good sense to remove then once they gained their freedom.

  28. dumbledoresarmy says

    Apr 7, 2016 at 8:47 pm

    alternatively – build the damn thing BUT – unbeknownst to the Muslims – **bug it from attic to basement** so it can be snooped on 24/7. Also, – very carefully and cleverly and secretly – booby-trap it in some way and make sure that the Greek army and law enforcement and special services have some sort of ‘master key’ and/ or secret entrance so that they can get into it anytime they like. With sufficient ingenuity and imagination such features could be installed without the mohammedans knowing the least bit about it.

    Teehee!

    Give them their mosque…. and a bit further down the track… **spring the trap**.

    Let all the bad eggs jump into one big basket… then… drop the basket.

  29. Myxlplik says

    How about deport all the Muslims in Greece instead? There are plenty of Mosques elsewhere.

  30. davej says

    Apr 8, 2016 at 1:46 pm

    When the Muslims blackmail you (the State) into paying for their “mega-mosques”, in addition to the welfare, free housing and “cultural education” courses, then you have lost the separation of church and state and embraced the Islamic ideology of the Theocratic State.

    So all is proceeding to the Koranic plan for submission.

    If a neighbourhood gang tried this, it would be a crime…the old ‘Protection Racket’, or simply, extortion! Get real and take legal action against them…you could probably find grounds for charges of treason!
