Greece: Excommunicated Orthodox Abbot threatens Jews with a “Greek Hitler”

Via Against Antisemitism:

According to Vice Greece, around 4,000 people protested at Athens’s Propylaia earlier this week the forthcoming Greek ID cards, which will be issued with a microchip carrying the holder’s NI number. The rally was organized by Greek Orthodox zealots, the so-called followers of the Old Calendar, and was attended by members of the Nazi Golden Dawn party.

Abbot Methodios from the Esfigmenou monastery addressed the demonstrators accusing the Ecumenical Patriarch and the Greek politicians for trying to destroy the Orthodox traditions and deliver the country to the Jews. The abbot said that the Greek people don’t need the “Jewish money” in order to survive and threatened them with a new Hitler:

“If the Jews are complaining that Hitler came and killed them [some protesters cry out: lies!], they should be careful this time, because a Greek Hitler might come. They should be very careful!”

The abbot’s Jew-hate rant was applauded by his supporters.
