I have attended many Christmas markets over the years. They are so crowded especially at the moment as German children finished school for the Christmas holidays. Frightening, my prayers are with all the victim's 🙏

Or maybe Taqiyya and nothing to do with the far right.

why chose a christmas market as a place to make a political point, why not find a cultural setting that actually relates with their chosen flags and causes. It's attention seeking activism. 😴yawn. Little agents provocateurs 😂😂

Gathering in the streets apparently, capatilising on all of the idiots that can't see that they are part of the problem that led to this.

Would you turn up at a Diwali festival or Eid and walk around waving the Union Jack? Their behaviour is clearly inappropriate, provocative and territory-marking. No one wants a Syrian (or Palestinian, or Israeli) flag in a German Christmas market. They are not there to enjoy and celebrate and be civlilised but to cause trouble. People who can't behave decently in the society which is generously hosting them (and at considerable expense and inconvenience to taxpayers) should be sent home.

It's Syrian refugees he seems to have the biggest problem with who are majority sunni

But who knows

Well if wiki says it 😆

Maybe you haven't been on MN long. There have been discussions on here before about the use of the term expat. It is intrinsically racist. What's the difference between an expat and an immigrant? Brits are expats, the rest of the world are immigrants.

Unfortunately isis is what caused a far right back lash.
And the multiple atrocities since.

I would have thought expat refers to someone from a safe politically democratic country living elsewhere with plenty of funds to support themselves?
AND would be the same for anyone living in the UK?

I'm just going to repeat myself for the slow of reading. A country being rich doesn't mean that all its inhabitants are safe, have a rich lifestyle or don't suffer abuse on a governmental level.

Taqiyya doesn't have much to do with Saudi Wahabism it's more shia or sunni

And to keep it up for 20 years?

So yeah pull the other one

I've lived abroad in two different countries. It's only Brits who call themselves expats. It's to distinguish themselves from immigrants.

And what 'caused' Isis if not the war on terror?

It's all a self-perpetuating horrible vicious circle

As the OP has mentioned, she would like to claim asylum in Saudi Arabia because it feels safe for her because being trans is against the law in Saudi Arabia and same sex relationships are subject to the death penalty.

I am sure the OP could give a reason why LGBT people who live in Saudi Arabia might like to claim asylum because they fear persecution in Saudi Arabia. Even though it is a rich country where "all its inhabitants are safe".

18 years. How long had he been spouting shit on Twitter? We don’t know.
Taqiyya is Shi’a practice. When did he decide being a Shi’a Muslim wasn’t for him and he’d go atheist?
Lots of things don’t add up and there will always be differences of opinion.
As a atheist I will say what he did was not something your typical atheist would do 🤷‍♀️

Their behaviour is clearly inappropriate, provocative and territory-marking
Aka machismo, extreme male behaviour. That's what they do; they try to dominate, to win, to work things to their advantage.

She admits she's not seen the film clip

If she had she would have seen that there were plenty of women there

He wasn't helping Muslims flee.

According to the BBC his website was dedicated to helping Muslims flee their home country.
Is the BBC wrong in their reporting?

You missed the word 'former'

An atheist, he ran a website that aimed to help other former Muslims flee persecution in their Gulf homelands. His social media was full of anti-Islamic sentiment and conspiracy theories.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y4q4eny2do

All the reports I've seen about his activities in helping people leave countries has been in relation to people who were not Muslim...

On-line evidence is he was leftist, pro-atheist, anti-Islam, pro-Hammas, anti-German, irrational, rage-filled and mentally ill. Should never have been allowed to migrate to Europe. High-skilled migration can be of value but importing criminals, misogynists, religious fanatics, the mentally-ill, the chronically sick, child-abusers, rapists, genocidaires and people who will never contribute more in tax than they receive in benefits seems to be an exercise in stupidity. Can we really afford our virtue-signalling? Will our children hate us for what we have done to the country our parents left us?

He probably wasn't all those things you listed in your first sentence 18 years ago.

It appears he was all of those for at least the last decade. Time to go home.

That’s the news for you. Can’t believe anything that’s printed.
Maybe I should read it more than once a day.
It does indeed say former and I stand corrected.
Perhaps he was just bat shit crazy.

Or just a hate-filled extremist. No insanity needed.
