Killing for the right to bludge off the state

Andrew Bolt

People are being murdered by Leftists determined to protect unaffordable rorts and perks that are bankrupting Greece:

A FIRE-BOMB attack on a bank in Athens left at least three people dead as police fought pitched battles with striking protesters furious at brutal spending cuts designed to avoid national bankruptcy.

Hooded youths hurled petrol bombs at stores and businesses in the Greek capital, setting the bank and two government buildings ablaze…

Athens underground stations were shuttered and the international airport deserted as tens of thousands of union members rallied on the eve of a vote in parliament on the planned cuts and tax hikes… Hundreds of thousands of civil servants kicked off the protests and a group of about 200 communists also stormed Athens Acropolis, unfurling banners reading “Peoples of Europe, Rise Up”.

The “anti-austerity” riots in Greece

Last March, I spotlighted the rule of the mob in Britain and the spread of left-wing vigilantes across Europe. Big Labor bosses in the U.S. have expressed solidarity for their union brethren’s “struggle” and helped foment chaos. May Day mayhem took hold here — and abroad.

ATHENS, Greece — Greek fire officials say three people have died in a blaze that broke out at an Athens bank during rioting over government austerity measures.

An estimated 100,000 people took to the streets Wednesday during a nationwide wave of strikes against spending cuts aimed at saving the country from bankrupty.

“Migrants” means Muslims. But  at least the mosque was ‘left untouched’…

btw: its not global warming that set France on fire, and don’t blame the Goracle, the profit of doom, who descended on Melbourne today: its the “youth’s” from North Africa, who are just fighting back at French oppression….

Greek police flatten migrant camp

Video here

By Malcolm Brabant BBC News, Athens 

Greek riot police have led an operation to demolish a makeshift camp housing illegal immigrants in the western port city of Patras.

The camp was used by migrants hoping to smuggle themselves onto ships bound for Italy and Western Europe.

Its closure is more proof of Greece’s tougher stance on illegal immigration.

The camp had been a source of tension with many Greeks who regarded it as a major eyesore for themselves and for tourists arriving from Italy.

• Muslims riot in Greece over rumor of someone mistreating Koran, and British people protest in Luton to preserve their own culture.

Which people will be maligned and denigrated as racists? The ones burning cars and throwing slabs of rock at police, or the ones asking that they be allowed to maintain their own history and values in their own historical nation?

Greece: Muslim associations sue policeman for allegedly desecrating a Koran

“We demand” an apology. More on this story. “Greek Muslim associations sue policeman,” from SETimes.com, May 26; via JW

ATHENS, Greece — Muslim associations in Athens have filed a lawsuit against a policeman who allegedly desecrated a copy of the Koran last week, media reported on Monday (May 25th). Last Thursday, the policeman allegedly took a Koran from a customer during a police check at an Athens coffee shop, ripped it apart, threw it on the floor and stomped on it. Police say the officer did not know it was Islam’s holy book. 

The Pakistani community in Greece called on the government to assume responsibility for the incident and demanded an apology from authorities. The incident prompted two days of protests by hundreds of Muslims in central Athens. Violent clashes with police on Friday injured at least 14 people and damage several businesses; 46 people were arrested.

Questions need to be asked:

1. Why is there a “Pakistani community”  in Greece?
2. Since when is Islam’s “holy book”, the Koran, protected under Greek law?
3. Who pays for the damage and injuries caused by the Muhammedan rioters? 
4. Why  are these illegal squatters not rounded up and deported?

Lizard Watch:   Greek Rioting – “Unrelated to Islam”

Athens’ giant Christmas tree, ignited by protesters, burns in front of the Greek parliament in Athens Dec. 8, 2008.

* King Lizard sez “suspicion is understandable” but prefers denial over facts:

Lots of people have emailed us to express suspicion at the reports of “youths” rioting in Greece after the police shooting of a teenager. The suspicion is understandable, given media’s previous reluctance to identify the rioters in France as anything other than “youths,” but the simple fact is that this horrible violence has nothing to do with Islamic immigrants and everything to do with Greece’s home-grown anarchist left: Violence breaks out during Greek teen’s funeral.

    “Nothing to do with Islamic immigrants”,- really?
