Christian Migrants Thrown Overboard

Joan_Ferguson · 16/04/15 - 15:53

TGcom is reporting that 15 Muslim migrants who disembarked in Palermo yesterday were held by the police after other survivors reported that they had thrown 12 other migrants, who were Christians, overboard.

Survivors told Italian authorities that a brawl broke out on the boat for religious reasons.

The migrants arrested are from Ivory Coast, Senegal and Mali, and will be charged with murder associated with religious motives.

Investigations started after Nigerian and Ghanaian survivors, who arrived in Palermo on board the merchant vessel Ellesborg, spoke to the police.

The migrants thrown overboard are also Nigerian and Ghanaian, TGcom says.

What can you say really? It's almost beyond belief.

No surprise really - Christians bound to be the sacrificial lambs

Bit ironic really in view of where they were heading though.

Great to know that there are people like that fleeing for their safety.

I have seen images of these people, most of the men look like criminals and I hope they are returned to where they have come from.

They should only allow women and children to stay.

It's quite shocking that Muslims would resort to murdering those with a different belief.

They're not exactly slow at murdering those with the same belief either.

I do hope if found guilty they are sent back home to serve their sentence and not in a European country as that's a win for them.

Islam is the religion of peace I refuse to believe it

Yeah, we need more like that in and around Europe, don't we.

Depressing - it's like if Muslims are killed by non Muslims their community goes nuts.- even if it's not for religious reasons See Palestine and those American ones in Capitol Hill.

Yet they can kill as many Christians as they want because they are not of the same faith and no one condemns it.

That's what I want, nothing to do with Islam, oh to able to get through a week without reading about an atrocity committed in the name of this odious, mysogonistic, homophobic, brain washing cult.

Instead of rescuing and letting them land in Italy, why don't they just tow them back to Libya and disembark them ?

The more they keep taking ashore, the more that will set sail. They should go to the nearest beach in Lybia and post picture of the bodies to prevent anyone else doing it.

Everything to do with it.

I'm sure these folk will be a valuable addition to Europe. Anyone who says otherwise is either a racist or an xenophobe.

mal2pool · 16/04/15 - 19:18

They will be fighting each other when they come over too. They should not attempt to rescue them, no matter how bad that sounds, and maybe the ships will stop.
Where are all these people going to go. I wonder if we had never messed with these countries this mass exodus wouldnt happen. I

there was an interesting program on BBC2 last night about how Christians have been virtually eradicated from Iraq in the last 10 years

Just when you think there can't be anything more horrific to witness from these people, they prove you wrong.

Having watched the programme on BBC 2 last night about the murder of thousands of Christians by Muslims, it comes as no surprise that this has happened. Refugees murdering other refugees because they are a different religion. What a wonderful asset to Catholic Italy those who survive will be.

mounty · 16/04/15 - 19:37

real good to know such people are seeking refuge in Europe

Another manifestation of the tolerant loving religion, Islam.

They should be charged with murder.

jediknight2k1 · 16/04/15 - 21:35

There was a program on BBC2 last night called 'Kill the Christians'. It showed the extent of Christian persecution the Middle East.
