Historic 7ft Crucifix Cut Down After it Offends New Muslim Neighbour
Breitbart London ^ | 12/25/14 | Oliver Lane

Posted on 12/25/2014 9:49:01 PM PST by Nachum

A sixty-year-old crucifix in a small Austrian town has met an inglorious end after being cut down by a recent addition to the neighbourhood who declared it an “eyesore” and attacked it with an angle-grinder. The cross, which was erected in the Grossenzersdorf, a small suburb of Vienna, after the Second World War, (snip) stood on the grass verge outside one of the properties on Grossenzersdorf’s Augasse. Shortly after the new resident, a man described by local media as ‘Egyptian’ moved in, he started complaining to neighbours and even his local government about the crucifix.

Because Muslims and their ilk cannot control themselves which is why they love to Rape.
The only way to control it is to keep all women covered completely, including their eyes.

Very telling truth about their culture. Animals all who deserve to be killed and
wiped off the face of this planet. 100-Nukes should be a good start.

Good does not share bread and coddle the evil in this world. Read about past wars.

from the article: Keen to appease the new arrival, local mayor Hubert Tomsic even discussed moving the cross with him: “I had a conversation with the man about repositioning the cross at a different location in the alley – at his expense”.

Well there is your problem. Thee is no need to appease these people. No one forced him to move there or stay there.

If you don't want to live next to the crazy cat lady, don't buy the house next to the crazy cat lady.

I think my next move after re-erecting an even larger crucifix would be to start a Bar-B-Que pork shop.

what about OFFENDING CHRISTIANS ???

Time to shut your mouth mohammed!

So much for equality - peace - multiculturalism -—

ahh - throw tolerance to the curbside or down the toilet...every time these stories appear I wonder where the counter argument is...those taking down the Cross are guilty for the advancement of Islam and when they come and treat them worth than an animal - I will feel no sorrow for their weak souls!

Cutting down a historic cross/shrine offends Christians.

I hope the Christians there do something about it.

Slavery, Terrorism and Islam

The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat Dr. Hammond’s doctorate is in Theology.

He was born in Cape Town in 1960, grew up in Rhodesia and converted to Christianity in 1977.  Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is a complete, total, 100% system of life. Islam has religious, legal, political, economic, social, and military components. The religious component is a beard for all of the other components. Islamisation begins when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their religious privileges. When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim demands for their religious privileges, some of the other components tend to creep in as well.

Here’s how it works: As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part be regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens. This is the case in:

United States — Muslim 0.6% Australia — Muslim 1.5% Canada — Muslim 1.9% China — Muslim 1.8% Italy — Muslim 1.5% Norway — Muslim 1.8%

At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs.

This is happening in: Denmark — Muslim 2% Germany — Muslim 3.7% United Kingdom — Muslim 2.7% Spain — Muslim 4% Thailand — Muslim 4.6%

From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves — along with threats for failure to comply. This is occurring in:

France — Muslim 8% Philippines — 5% Sweden — Muslim 5% Switzerland — Muslim 4.3% The Netherlands — Muslim 5.5% Trinidad & Tobago — Muslim 5.8%

At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world. When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris, we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam, with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections, in:

Guyana — Muslim 10% India — Muslim 13.4% Israel — Muslim 16% Kenya — Muslim 10% Russia — Muslim 15%

After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:

Ethiopia — Muslim 32.8%

At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and on-going militia warfare, such as in:

Bosnia — Muslim 40% Chad — Muslim 53.1% Lebanon — Muslim 59.7%

From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions “(including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya, “the tax placed on infidels, such as in:

Albania — Muslim 70% Malaysia — Muslim 60.4% Qatar — Muslim 77.5% Sudan — Muslim 70%

After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and in some ways is on-going in:

Bangladesh — Muslim 83% Egypt — Muslim 90% Gaza — Muslim 98.7% Indonesia — Muslim 86.1% Iran — Muslim 98% Iraq — Muslim 97% Jordan — Muslim 92% Morocco — Muslim 98.7% Pakistan — Muslim 97% Palestine — Muslim 99% Syria — Muslim 90% Tajikistan — Muslim 90% Turkey — Muslim 99.8% United Arab Emirates — Muslim 96%

100% will usher in the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ — the Islamic House of Peace. Here there’s supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrassas are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in:

Afghanistan — Muslim 100% Saudi Arabia — Muslim 100% Somalia — Muslim 100% Yemen — Muslim 100%

Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, a s in these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons.

‘Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; the tribe against the world, and all of us against the infidel. — Leon Uris, ‘The Haj’

The essay is fantasic. I would only ask how old is it - some of those percentages need to be revised.

For example, would not the USA and the UK be in at least the 5% bracket by now?

If Austrians put up with this, they are already dhimmis. At minimum they should prosecute Egypto-Muzzie for blasphemy, hate speech, vandalism, etc., prior to deporting his thug azz. The locals should reinstall the crucifix immediately, preferably after Mr. Muzzie has grown attached to it.

Sadly, in another forum the concept of a Crucifix was derided by people who called themselves Christians: they made fun of the Crucified Lord, saying the Resurrection was all that counted. That hurt just as much in its own way.

What right did that man have to destroy that Crucifix?! Were any charges pressed?
