(European Conservative) The image of Athens as one of Europe’s safest capitals is threatened by a wave of lawlessness, misogyny, and extremism imported by recent immigrants, many of them from Muslim-majority countries, primarily from Pakistan. Local analysts say that the increased number of Muslim migrants poses serious threats to the safety of women and overall national security in the country of 10 million.
The sexual assault of a Greek woman by a mob of foreign-born Muslim men during the New Year’s celebration in Athens’s historic center, Syntagma Square, is just one of the episodes that indicate that the safety of women is under particular threat. Most of the participants of the celebration were men from Muslim-majority countries. The victims were, ironically enough, from a pro-Palestinian women’s group that calls itself “Purple,” reported the news website Mea Culpa. According to the report, the assault took place when women from the group raised a flag expressing solidarity with the Palestinians.
