A German news report explains that the media has previously been denied access to an overcrowded refugee camp in Giessen, but politicians finally gave in to pressure and let the media inside to look around.
Once inside the camp, the media discovers that Muslim and Christian refugees are not separated from each other despite Christians being extremely persecuted by the Muslims.
The journalist speaks to a Christian refugee who says that he’s frightened because he thinks the camp is housing ISIS supporters and he can’t sleep at night because of it.
The refugee goes on to say that they loudly recite very specific verses of the Quran which bring back terrible memories to him every night— being the words ISIS says before they cut the heads off of people in Syria. He also says a friend of his was killed in that manner by ISIS.
He says, “For God’s sake I cannot stay here with IS and all. I am a Christian and I am afraid. There are so many problems here.”
The media was led through the camp with restrictions that they had to stay together and never leave the group, and preferably they were to speak with only a handful of chosen refugees despite many of them crowding the reporters anxious to speak to them.
