    “Italian Police: Muslim Migrants Threw Christians Overboard,”

    By Hada Messia, Livia Borghese and Jason Hanna, CNN
    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.

    Since we know (because lefties say so) that there are no terrorists amongst these migrants, can someone explain how moderates would do such a thing?

    Or just plain explain how these people can coexist in nations full of Christians?

    "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."

    I wonder if some of those who formed the human chain were Muslim as well?

    I hadn't heard of this (disgusting) incident either. I'm glad it was posted.

    btw - This is still relevant!

    Trouble is they all get tarred with the same brush. But then it could be argued 'with good reason', because there's no possible way of knowing the good guys from the bad guys. Most non-Muslims don't go around slaughtering women and children in public places? [​IMG]

    The date posted when I read it was the 20th of this month.

    No idea why it now says an earlier date.

    Lets pretend the date does not matter.

    I think you'd like it to be old news.

    Dead Christians, killed deliberately by Muslims.

    Hmm, is the real problem here Christians being singled out by their religion to be thrown into the sea, or that (Muslims) are getting tarred with the same brush"?

    Wheres the real issue here?

    Is it like Christians aren't persecuted by Muslims? What religion is the worlds most persecuted?

    - - - Updated - - -

    That wasn't a tragedy, it was the selective murder of Christians.

    They stay and get killed, head to a refugee camp and get killed. head for another country and get killed. Meanwhile Obama imports 97% Muslims from the region.

    No one can say there are no terrorists slipping through. We know the supposed mastermind of the French attacks, a Belgium citizen already did that.

    However there is no reason to believe that the Muslims who committed this attack were terrorists. They certainly were not Syrian refugees who are the ones being given priority - and of course the ones who economic migrants and terrorists are faking passports of.

    Now getting back to the boat. The murders took place after a fight between the Muslims and Christians possibly from the same country hence the issue needs to be why was there a fight. There may for a start have been far too many people in the boat and if you had done your study you would know that in many countries Christians are themselves involved in massacring Muslims. I would say this incident most likely has nothing to do with terrorism.

    Correct ... how will someone be able to see if a Muslim is Sunni = possible ISIS, Shiite, possible Hezbollah, Alevi = possible member of Assad regime?
    Even this is then a silly generalization, because of course are not all Sunni automatically member of ISIS and so on ...

    This would require some proof on your part.

    So you want to pretend that it didn't happen? That's all you can say about this atrocity?

    So why didn't you post this 7 months ago? Didn't fit your narrative?

    It speaks to the tolerance of Muslims or lack of it. Hope they rot in jail.

    Yes, and very inclusive. Our lives will be so much more enriched with tens of thousands more of them. I think the Muslims are jealous because some have suggested that we let in just Christian refugees. Why we wouldn't do that. That would be bigoted.

    Maybe because our government is always telling us how moderate and harmless the refugees are.

    I had never read that story before, but it is good info to have.

    What problem do you have with that story? Does time make criminally insane acts like throwing people overboard less horrendous.

    We have been told for decades that Christians were the most blood thirsty people in the world, and that Christian nations have committed the most heinous crimes in the world. Those accusations are rarely ever challenged. Muslims have been a blood thirsty bunch for 1700 years now. Their conquest of much of Europe wasn't done with intellectual persuasion, and propaganda. It was bloody. This time they will succeed in their conquests because of apologists like you.

    If the victims had been Muslim, and the ones throwing them overboard had been Christian, would you object to the 7 month-old story being retold?

    As far as I'm concerned, a plague on all their houses/churches/temples/mosques, whatever! Religion is the curse of mankind.

    How is this different from lining people up, asking each one to recite Qu'ran and shooting these who can't? How's this different from rounding up Christians and publically beheading them while camera is running?
