Videos of a camp in Greece show Palestinians and other asylum seekers cheering on attacks from Gaza
Migrants in Europe celebrated last night after Hamas launched an attack on Israel, killing more than 150 people.
Videos of a migrant camp in Greece showed Palestinians and other asylum seekers cheering in response to the attacks from Gaza.
The footage, published on TikTok, was reportedly taken on the eastern Aegean island of Samos, where the Greek government has set up a “closed” migrant camp surrounded by barbed wire.
Refugees there, many of whom are from Syria and Iraq, reportedly chanted “Allah Akbar” – “God is great”.
Their celebrations were mirrored in many states across the Arab world, where Hamas and Hizbollah supporters gathered in support of the attack.
In Tehran, where the government publicly welcomed Hamas’s military operation, supporters waved Palestinian flags and set off fireworks.
Hizbollah supporters also held a rally in Dahiyeh, a suburb of Beirut, Lebanon, where some waved signs that read: “Oh Quds, we are coming.”
The phrase is used in support of Palestinian forces capturing Muslim holy sites. Others stood on an Israeli flag.
At the Bourj al-Barajneh Palestinian refugee camp in Beirut, one man handed out sweets to supporters, while others displayed two-fingered victory signs reminiscent of Winston Churchill’s wartime gesture.
A video posted on social media purportedly showed similar celebrations taking place in Baghdad, Iraq, where supporters waved flags and sounded their horns in a convoy.
The AFP news agency reported that some Palestinian supporters had taken to the streets in Berlin, prompting police fears of attacks on synagogues in Germany.
Nancy Faeser, Germany’s interior minister, said police presence “has been immediately stepped up” in response.
In Britain, some supported the attacks on social media.
Rivkah Brown, a journalist for the Left-wing news website Novara, tweeted: “Today should be a day of celebration for supporters of democracy and human rights worldwide, as Gazans break out of their open-air prison and Hamas fighters cross into their colonisers’ territory.
“The struggle for freedom is rarely bloodless and we shouldn’t apologise for it.”
Husam Zomlot, the head of the Palestinian Mission to the UK, said “statements about ‘Israel’s right to self-defence’ will only be interpreted by the most fanatical Israeli government as a green light to commit further massacres against the occupied people of Palestine”.
With the no-go zones in France, I can see them areas turning into Gaza-like places, some quasi-ideology can be breed out of French colonialism and revenge for the past yada-yada.
Disgraceful. Such people whose values don’t resonate with European values have no place in Europe. Countries have taken the trouble to integrate these people but they have no interest in assimilating. I hope the “pro-letting anyone in” crowd realizes now the errors of their thinking.
And people wonder why right winged parties are getting so popular? As long as these people are being greeted with open arms and this behavior is being accepted as ‘an opinion’ it’s clear they are not going to accept the values and culture they are migrating to.
We’re on the brink of change in the willingness to accept refugees from places like this.

One can hope that this gives some people pause to think. I too am quite guilty about having been inexcusably naive about immigration in the past years, and this is a huge fucking problem that we have created for ourselves. I do not think we can have a working society with people so commited to being vile and celebrating blatant barbarism lazily justified with barely coherent “anti colonialism” babble.
Disgusting.
Transport them back to their happy place so that they got to celebrate there.
it’s a great way to pick out the hopeless cases…

I’ve said it many times before and will say it again. This is why the far-right will start winning elections.
Deport. Edit: don’t ever allow them in Europe.
It’s sad. And unfortunately no different than when “westerners” cheer for Israeli attacks on Gaza. I’ve also unfortunately seen “westerners” cheer for Russian attacks on Ukraine, with the argument that Ukraine is led by nazis.
There are a lot of bad people in this world – people who celebrate war, attacks, death. Sometimes it feels like pacifists like myself, who wish for all war and violence to end, are in the minority.
But the borders will still remain open to illegal immigrants that hate western values. It’s just a matter of time before attacks start in Europe.
Police forces need to announce that they will clamp down on these street party’s. The British police have already done so
Just before the elections in the Netherlands in November. I wonder what party will win the vote.
