EU becoming less tolerant, NGO says

Can't imagine why........

Racist mobs in Greece and Hungary, mistreatment of Roma, Arab migrants and Muslim terrorist suspects and a feeble reaction by EU institutions point to a worrying right-wing shift inside the European Union, according to US-based NGO Human Rights Watch.

The most shocking racist attack in Europe last year saw Norwegian Anders Breivik kill 77 people in what he called a campaign to stop the continent being taken over by Islam.

In less-well documented incidents, a far-right mob in Greece in May stormed a Pakistani suburb hospitalising 25 people, some with stab wounds. In April in Hungary, the Red Cross evacuated 277 Roma because right-wing vigilantes held military-type drills beside their homes.

  1. The most intolerant people are the ones who push "tolerance" the hardest. Wear a "white pride" t-shirt and see what I mean.

    In a similar vein, those who claim to "celebrate diversity" work the hardest to destroy it by pushing multiculturalism, instead of respecting distinct cultures.
