ATHENS, Nov 16 (Reuters) - Scuffles broke out on Tuesday between Muslim Greeks and a television crew filming an episode of a popular series near a mosque in northeastern Greece, police said.

They said about 400 Muslim Greeks in the village of Echinos, angered by the presence of actresses not wearing head scarves near the entry of the mosque, gathered around the television crew demanding they leave.

They are "coming out" all over Europe these days.

".......angered by the presence of actresses not wearing head scarves near the entry of the mosque."

Doesn't take much to set them off, does it.

[LasVegasMac]

Touchy little extremists, aren't they?

[Gibtx]

they are showing their own colors...... with their own actions and words.... they are a blood sect.... that has been uncovered..... and exposed..... and they have the mark of the beast

[nosofar]

People will assimilate only if they feel they need to. In Europe, Muslims don't think they need to.

Religion of Peace ALERT!

I think what needs to happen is to have the revese imposed on all Muslim women near churches. Forced removal of headscarfs.

See if turnabout is fair play.

[sheik yerbouty]

Greece should deport them.

[ChEng]

mankind's "killer bees."

[GSlob]

Hasn't Ataturk taken them all in 1923? Where do they come from, Greek Moslems?

[pipecorp]

Soooo......How do you seperate the greek muslim men from the greek muslim boys?













With a crowbar!

couldn't resist it, sorry.

I am not sure. Unrelated, but didn't Greece, earlier this month, criticize President Bush and the USA over Macedonia?

[MarMema]

ROFL. But isn't there a sudden increase in behavioral issues from Europe's muslims recently? We have threads on the Dutch and Germans being intimidated by islamic radicals, and now this.

Amazing. Some of our traditional churches use head coverings but would never dream of expecting others to also.

This occurred in Thrace in Northeast Greece. This area has had a muslim population for centuries. Chances are about 99% that these people are natural born Greek citizens, so they can't be deported.

[muawiyah]

Uhh, Moslems ran Greece for several hundred years. The Greeks refused to assimilate and managed to undertake a revolution that took them out of the Ottoman orbit.

I'd thought the Greeks got rid of any residual Moslem populations in the 1920s but I guess not.

BTW, personally I find most Greeks and most Turks who live in cities, or near the Aegean to be pretty much alike as far as culture, behavior, etc. are concerned. It's like they are the same people divided only by language and religion!

[modest proposal]

lol. And europeans want a muslim majority it seems.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

***With a crowbar! ***LOL

I thought it may be with a greased broom handle. After all, Moslems can dish it out but they can't take it!

[BurbankKarl]

I hope it was Road Rules Greece.

Amazing. Some of our traditional churches use head coverings but would never dream of expecting others to also.

That's because your religion is not a bloodthirsty satanic death-cult hellbent upon tearing down all human civilization, oppressing women, and casting the world back into the very worst ideas of the seventh century.
