Greece: Muslim migrants attack other Muslim migrants for not observing Ramadan fast, 10 injured

May 27, 2018 10:54 am By Robert Spencer

Piety enforced by threats, intimidation, and physical violence is not piety, it’s just outward conformity based on fear.

“Kurds attacked in Greek camp, accused of not fasting on Ramadan,” by Seth J. Frantzman, Jerusalem Post, May 27, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Accused of being “infidels,” a group of Kurdish asylum-seekers say they were attacked at a refugee camp on the Greek island of Lesbos on Friday.

Local reports on Saturday said six persons were wounded in the clashes. One Syrian Kurdish refugee said four Kurds had been killed when they were set upon due to “sectarian and ethnic hatred against Kurds.” Reports corrected the numbers on Sunday to indicate ten had been injured and none killed.

The Moria camp on Lesbos has been the center of brawls before between refugees who are stuffed into a facility of 7,000 inhabitants that has been operating at 300% of capacity for months.

In 2017 there were massive fights in the camp in March and December, and an Afghan migrant was reported killed in November last year. A report earlier this month in the Greek newspaper Ekathimerini said the camp was nearing a “breaking point.” Women said they were at risk of sexual violence. One refugee said he was stuck in the shocking conditions for two years.

The latest crisis began on Friday, when riot police and medical units were called to Moria as fights broke out. First aid was provided and migrants were transferred to Mytilene hospital. Moro Tabush, a Syrian Kurdish refugee, told Kurdistan 24 television that Syrian and Arab refugees had attacked Kurdish families. According to the initial report, two of his cousins were killed as well as another man from Afrin in Syria. He “claimed that Greek authorities in the camp did not intervene.”

The Kurdish channel Rudaw interviewed a man named Khalil from Kobane in Syria. He said that he was fasting for Ramadan on Friday, “yet some Arabs from Syria, Iraq, Yemen and Algeria came and said, ‘Rojava Kurds are infidels and don’t fast.’”

Khalil said this was the cause of the fight. He said no one was killed but that 17 Kurds were wounded, 10 severely.

The attacks on Kurds caused hundreds of Kurdish refugees to flee the camp and head toward the town of Mytilene, the capital of Lesbos. According to tweets by Michael Raber, who posted photos online, the people who fled included secular Kurdish refugees who warned “of rising influence from Daesh [ISIS].”…

    Surely this is a case of the “phobia” moslims like to blame when things go awry. Each one is a busybody in the affairs of everyone else to the point of assault, rape, and murder….all in the cause of evil.

    Solution is simple. Deport those who riot, attack, do harm, which generally are the minority. You are doing a favour for both sides by doing so. Those who wish to leave their religious and cultural baggage at the door of their new country will be thrilled. Those who bring their religious and culural baggage with them can go back to where they came from and live without the daily irritation of the wicked around them.

    Tsk. Tsk. Muslims fighting muslims over the fine points of Islamic law. How inspiring! It must be why their schools and universities are so progressive.

    This has been going on for millennia. Send them all home. Let them continue to fight at home. Quit subsidizing muslim on muslim strife based upon race, ethnicity, and branch of islam.

      Picked up a local paper today (quiet Southern Ontario city) to see a heritage Coptic Church had numerous windows smashed in on Friday night. Some middle-aged male arrested at the scene. No name released yet – can’t imagine why not.

      no name

    This advice might be useful to the holy yusufs of islam….

    “when you fast,do not put on a sad face like the hypocrites do.They neglect their appearance so that
    everyone will see they are fasting..

    ..when you are fasting,wash your face and comb your hair so that others cannot know that you are fasting”

    matthew 6 v 16-18

    WASH YOUR FACES AND COMB YOUR HAIR LADS!
    Putting on a show of false piety is for hypocrites isn’t it?

    Oh and..

    “..make sure you do not perform your religious duties IN PUBLIC so people will see what you do.If you do these things you will not have any reward from God”
    matthew 6 v 1

    So putting on a long face whilst fasting and putting on a public show of false piety is actually..offensive to God and shows the devotees to be religious hypocrites.

    C’MON :WASH YOUR FACES AND COMB YOUR HAIR LADS!your allah may demand such hypocrisy but the actual God finds it offensive.

    This is why the muslim saying, and I quote, “peace will reign all over the world”, how could you possibly have peace in the muslim world when all they want to do is kill everyone and anyone …

    Ohh stupid me, what they really mean is “peace will reign all over the world” when there is only one person left …

      Yes–the most Islamic countries–places like Afghanistan, Yemen, and Somalia, which are all virtually 100% Muslim–are some of the most violent hell holes.

    They are a fucking mafia. Where they are a majority a person who does not fast must eat and drink secretly … so as not to offend muslims. summarizing
    … Islam is what conditions the rest of humanity … as they always do. Damn Islam, these days I’m going to go down the street eating a bacon sandwich and drinking a can of beer. (I do not usually drink beer or alcohol but just for offending the Muslims … I’m going to start drinking more beer on the terraces from my neighborhood) . Fuck you muslims.

    Is there no law and order in refugee camps? Are they like Mars where you can do what you want once you get there? How about introducing Western laws so that these Muslims get an inkling of what is to come?
