Lesbos Proves Muslim Immigrants are not the Innocent Victims the Media has Portrayed
Freedom Outpost ^ | 9/10/2015 | Michael Ware

Posted on 09/11/2015 4:29:53 AM PDT by HomerBohn

With pictures of sad faces and the images of a young boy's body washing up on shore, we are told the terror of the plight of Muslim immigrants seeking to escape ISIS. If we listen to these narratives, we would think that these people simply want a chance at a better life. They are so desperate to escape the violence and fascism of ISIS that they will chance even their lives and the lives of their families to try and get to Europe. But this narrative is being strained as violence erupts on the Greek Island of Lesbos.

Breitbart reports:

The Greek island of Lesbos has been turned into a war zone by rioting migrants, leaving the island's 85,000 residents in despair. Around 25,000 migrants are currently camped out on the island with hundreds more arriving daily, leading to frequent violent clashes and rioting despite their claim to be fleeing violence.

As rocks, bottles and municipal bins fly, one tearful local woman told RTL "We are in danger, every day, every minute. We need someone to protect us. They come into our houses. I want to go to work, but I can't. Our children want to go to school, but they can't. They have stolen our lives!"

These people are seeking to get deeper into the EU and are competing to get on small ferries taking migrants to the mainland. This competition and the long wait has caused friction among the groups of migrants.

Breitbart continue:

Located just 6 miles from the Turkish shore, the migrants come over in inflatable boats which they cut up on arrival to prevent being turned back, expecting to be able to quickly travel on by ferry to mainland Europe, German station RTL has reported.

Instead, they are being held on the Island while the police issue emigration documents, a delay which can take days. The wait is causing tension between groups as Afghans accuse Syrians of getting preferential treatment by the authorities, leading to vicious violent clashes.

So, as a virtual war is waging outside, these Greek citizens are confined to their homes. They are fearful to go out as gangs of Muslims are roaming their streets. They are throwing rocks and bottles at one another. They have forced their way into people's homes. And the local government is overwhelmed, seeking to keep order at the ferries.

Breitbart reports:

The main town of Lesbos, Mytilene, now resembles a war zone as the migrants rip apart the infrastructure and use the town as a urinal. Mayor Galinos helpless in the face of such an onslaught is out of ideas, and is calling on the European Union to do something.

"This is a ticking time bomb that will go off soon," he said. "We have managed to avert some catastrophes, but we need help, more ferries. This island is so small, we can't solve a worldwide humanitarian crisis by ourselves. The European Union needs to act."

The people are not concerned with the law. They care little about the people of their host country and their safety. These people are already treating Europeans as second class citizens. They think the Muslim should be given preferential treatment. And Germany is calling for more immigrant-friendly laws in the EU.

This shows that the media's reporting on this Muslim wave is not completely accurate. And, it seems that if our politicians get their way, these violent crowds may be coming to America.

Gee...Greece was always so terrorist/Muslim friendly and Anti-American.

Are they asking for our help?

We should be outsourcing all of our islamo-terrorist ‘hospitality business’ to China. After all, they’ve built ghost cities with a few million capacity. Let the Saudi government build mosques in those places, and give the Chinese $500 per migrant per month. Watch the Chinese turn a profit on the deal.
Their military will be more than able to keep the critters under control.

You have asked the question that I have been thinking. Why are the muzzies fleeing when it is mainly the Christians that are losing their heads? Or am I coming up with conspiracy theory # 9,221?

Kronman said Islamic law is all the more deserving of intellectual attention because many people have views of the subject that are not very well informed. "It's the responsibility of universities to teach and instruct and that obligation applies with particular force where an issue or a subject tends to be viewed in an incomplete or inadequate or even caricatured way," Kronman said. "There the responsibility to teach and enlighten is even stronger."

And the U.N., which the U.S. dumps a BUNCH of taxpayer $$$ into, does ....?

Is the U.S. still sitting around the monitors watching mile-long convoys or package gatherings/joyous-revelers of insurgents/terrorists and NOT bombing/killing the same S.O.Bs??

[They started in our prisons.]

Chuck Colson who started Prison Fellowship found that out, more than a decade ago, when touring prisons and warned that Islam was the dominating ‘faith’ among the black population.

Nobody listened.

I missed your post at first and was really disappointed to read down around 20+ posts with no “lesbos” jokes.

Where’s Laz?

There’s a reason for that.

Islam gives religious sanction to how the prison population desires to live.

Christians can’t come out of hiding.

The Muzzies have established a route to Germany from the camps. ISIS is probably filling the camps and pushing the women and children to run. Wolves, moving the pack.

Berlin is toast. London is toast. Paris is toast.

We will see be headings and bombings in these cities.

Saudi Businessman Gives $10M for Islamic Law Center at Yale By michael Melia Sep 10, 2015


A Saudi businessman has donated $10 million to Yale Law School to establish what school officials hope will become the country’s top center for the study of Islamic law.

Abdallah S. Kamel made the award after meetings with university representatives including Yale President Peter Salovey. Kamel, chief executive of the Dallah Albaraka Group banking and real estate enterprise in Saudi Arabia, has sponsored a lecture series on Islamic law for the last three years.

Yale officials say the Abdallah S. Kamel Center for the Study of Islamic Law and Civilization reflects a growing interest at Yale and other institutions in Islamic law, history and culture. “The contemporary challenges of Islamic law are broadly relevant to political events throughout the entire Islamic world and those are developments that are watched by a much larger audience of people who in many cases have not much knowledge at all of the history and traditions if Islamic law,” said Professor Anthony Kronman, a co-director of the center who was first introduced to Kamel by a Yale Law graduate who works as an attorney for the Saudi businessman.

For two decades, Harvard Law School has had its own Islamic legal studies program, established with support from the Saudi king. Abdullahi An-Na’im, who teaches Islamic law at Emory Law School, said he considers the Islamic legal studies program at Harvard a disappointment because few faculty members took an interest and it has been treated as an isolated entity at the law school.

He said it remains to be seen how seriously the Yale faculty will take Islamic law as a field of human jurisprudence. Kronman said Yale aims to have the best program of its kind in the United States, if not the world, and one objective is to ensure the center’s work is integrated into the life of the law school.

Islamic law, or Shariah, carries weight in the legal code of most Muslim countries. Movements to expand its influence, including in areas of the West, have been controversial in part because some interpretations have been used to justify intolerance and harsh punishments.

Kronman said Islamic law is all the more deserving of intellectual attention because many people have views of the subject that are not very well informed. “It’s the responsibility of universities to teach and instruct and that obligation applies with particular force where an issue or a subject tends to be viewed in an incomplete or inadequate or even caricatured way,” Kronman said. “There the responsibility to teach and enlighten is even stronger.”

The Muslim men thought they were going to encounter a lot of attractive Greek women, but when they got to Lesbos they were told they were all Lesbians. So they rioted.

They’re an invading army.

Yep.

NPR did a story yesterday on the plight of Syrian refugees in Lebanon. They spoke with a young woman whose husband had left for Germany. She lived amongst other Syrian refugees and lamented on the difficulties of bringing heavy propane tanks she uses for cooking up to her apartment. "There are no young men to help us anymore. They've all left for Europe."

The world is too blind to notice that all these so-called "refugees" are military-aged males traveling alone?

Yep, Islam is the religion of war, rape, theft and destruction (toward unbelievers).

They can’t create civilization or actually produce anything in such a climate of ignorance and violence. The only reason they aren’t living in caves is the West was stupid enough to buy their oil.

Exactly. First response of the Lesbosians to any “immigrant” who commits an unlawful or violent act should be to shoot him. Period.

Dunno.
These Moslems are penned up with the locals on a small island and the ratio of Moslems to residents is probably pretty high.
We have a lot more room through which to disperse the Moslems, and we outnumber by quite a bit more.
Finally, we are armed.

This a an orchestrated invasion. ISIS and other terrorist groups that are joining fronts through their political connections and the support of Iran have somehow managed to use our own MSM (i think via our own CIC personally) to convince the bleeding heart liberals to be accepting of the refugee without question or even knowing who they really are. Its kneejerk politics 101 (puppydog is being spanked by that evil man without knowing why; because it just bit their chul for instance). If the refugees were Christians the Left would say they deserve to die. You and I and everyone else on this forum knows it.
