It was supposed to be the first step on their journey to Western Europe. But now thousands of migrants are mired in despair, anger and frustration on the scenic Greek island of Lesbos. After perilous sea voyages from neighbouring Turkey, they have been stranded here for days, some for nearly two weeks, running out of money and desperate to get to mainland Greece and continue their route. The island of some 100,000 residents has been transformed by the sudden new population of some 20,000 refugees, mostly from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan and the strain is pushing everyone to the limit. Fights break out among the migrants as they wait in long lines for hours in the summer heat and humidity after days without showers.

Refugees are traditionally women and children, and are intensely grateful for the kindness of strangers.
Not these ones though. Overwhelmingly young, male, fighting age, able-bodied, and incredibly arrogant.
They seem more like soldiers than refugees.
Ok, I’ll be the first to say it.. I saw Lesbos and thought... well, you know.
I think Hilary has plans to build a retirement home there.
All those Muslims must be seething with anger at being placed on an island that named a lifestyle hated by Muhammed.
Greece should just turn over the deed to Lesbos to Angela Merkel. Then the refugees can stay there and serve cocktails to the topless German women. And Greece pays down its debt.
Mostly dressed nicely and carrying iPhone.
Lesbos. Hee hee.
Hillary and Huma?
'I did not come here to make money,' he said. 'I came here so I can later bring my children and have them live in safety.'
On Saturday, two elderly men walked among the overwhelmingly Muslim migrants handing out copies of the Bible in Arabic.
Bless these men...
An Egyptian billionaire wants to buy an island for the refugees and take care of them. He says he is going to ask Italy and Greece if they will sell him one. I bet no one would want to stay.
The word lesbian comes from the Greek Island of Lesbos, where the poet Sappho wrote many love poems to other women.
It isn’t about ‘safety’ or ‘jobs’. It’s about establishing the Ummah.

I often thought all lesbians ought to be sent back to Lesbos!
Those islands can generate a lot of tourism income.
Yes, military age men seem to make up the majority of the “refugees” while isis is openly claiming that they are sending jihadis among the refugees and the politicians still ignore the truth.
This is somewhat a glimpse of what it’ll look like when the land is filled with those who seek handouts in a place that can no longer afford them.
Luv me somma dat sap.
“The one thing I notice is how overwhelmingly young and male these so called refugees are. “
Soldiers.
