It is apparently one of the most densely populated places in the Europe, but what happens there exactly?

idk

This is now a Christie thread

Not a lot, potato farming at most

There's like a thread every 2 weeks about me. I guess you can ask me anything.

Bump

As the brits used to call it in WW 2, "ghastly, flea-ridden rock."
-Water is fucking expensive, have no rivers. Unless you count the 3 or 3 floods that turn entire streets into rivers and leave pothole that never get fixed
- work nigger hours (even worse in summer), and stores just close around noon, open sometime around 4. maybe.

- Lots of Catholic shit everywhere

- beaches mobbed unless you go in nov, then you freeze in the water.

don't know what else to say. Brother is married to a girl from there (as a rule, the girls there not cute) and I've been there. I go to see neolithic temples and the WW 2 museum.

there is no museum to the siege.

Migrants.

Are you an Arab?

Pretty accurate

Native language is also semitic, close to Arabic bit written with roman letters. Now people speak more English.
The country is also very conservative by European standards.
And there is a big Museum of Torture.

Nice country. Kinnie is a great drink.

Nothing happens there.

Is there a Maltese culture? How many migrants do you estimate land on Malta every year?

The Maltese generally look Mediterranean. Some look straight up Arab. Few look white.

I myself am half Maltese, father is Italian, pale as fuck with blue eyes and blond hair so I turned out whiter in skin colour with dirty blond hair and hazel eyes. I don't look like an Arab.

Yes there is a Maltese culture. It's similar to Sicilian in many aspects. Maltese have traditional dresses, traditional foods. Each village has it's own 'feast' dedicated to a Saint. Such village feasts are deeply embedded in Maltese culture.

Not to mention the language which is quite unique, since it's spoken by a relatively small population.

True Kinnie isn't bad. I'm always a bit surprised by the somewhat large number of polacks that have visited Malta.

If I recall correctly it was the last place knights ever fought, against turks(?)

Craggy rocky little island

One of my co-workers is an Arab that transited through Malta into Italy and ended up in Canada.

He's pretty patriotic about being from Malta. Loves the places and goes back as often as possible.

theres something there about popeye there

>Museum of Torture.
Is that in Valetta? Is it awful? they put money into the temples and now have a "4D" museum where you get sprayed with water/mist that makes it feel like humidity is changing, actually pretty well done.

fucking heritage malta has closed catacombs from what I hear. museum sounds somewhat interesting.

Oh and regarding migrants. Most of the migrants here aren't filthy 'syrian' fleeing the 'climate'. Most come by boat and travel a huge distance from Central Africa. They're like the 'core of Africa nigger' - black as fuck. I know this it's not the first that I was on the bus and one would just sit next to me and start talking.

I'd honestly say they're different from the migrants flooding Europe right now. They rarely rape, and only sometimes one would start chimping out. They're still a burden and need to go back regardless.

>is an Arab
Arab muslim? can't imagine a muslim wanting to go there, unless he has a money laundering scheme going from north africa, which many do.

you mean a dark-skinned christian?

>WW 2 museum.
>there is no museum to the siege.
You must be kidding

I think he's referring to the Mdina dungeons. They're not in Valletta but Mdina as the name implies. Last time I went there was quite some years ago but it was cool.

Knights of Malta

Pretty big players in the world

all you neckbeards rather spout memes....

you know those secret society meetings that happen in movies.... well that happens in Malta

not that you would believe it..

Akrotiri and Dhekelia.Uk Army and Royal Navy stations.That's about it.And megalithic ruins.

foreignpolicy.com/2011/01/19/who-are-the-knights-of-malta-and-what-do-they-want/

Seymore Hersh outs them in this article, but u still wont believe it.....

a speech in Doha on Monday, veteran New Yorker journalist Seymour Hersh alleged that the U.S. military’s Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) had been infiltrated by Christian fanatics who see themselves as modern-day Crusaders and aim to "change mosques into cathedrals." In particular, he alleged that former JSOC head Gen. Stanley McChrystal — later U.S. commander in Afghanistan — and his successor, Vice Adm. William McRaven, as well as many other senior leaders of the command, are "are all members of, or at least supporters of, Knights of Malta." What was he talking about?

Not exactly clear. There’s not much evidence to suggest that the Knights of Malta are the secretive cabal of anti-Muslim fundamentalists that Hersh described. (For the record, when contacted by Foreign Policy, McChrystal said that he is not a member.) But they are certainly an anomalous presence in international politics and have provoked their share of conspiracy theories over the years.

There is no siege museum, which I always found weird as fuck. All the places where the main battles were fault 9St. Elmos) were built over when all of Europe paid for the new walls.

the walls around Rabat are still the original norman walls, you can go to Veduta ("the view") a restaurant that has a patio with clear line of site to coast and see what people would have seen as Turks were landing, etc..

Believe it or not there are Muslims here and the number is not decreasing. They even have their own fucking mosque and school. Last time they were protesting for a new mosque to be built because their mosque was too 'small'. About 200 of them gathered in a square in front of a Church and prayed there.

>A couple of days after a group which calls itself 'Maltese Patriots' gathered in the same place to protest the Muslims and distributed PORK sandwiches.

It's where scoundrels run to after betraying their countrymen. The Knights of Malta is a Catholic secret society.

Jesus..how things can change, even in 3-4 years. The Maltese I knew would have chased them off with sticks.

Thanks, jesuits.

I sort of recall they had one mosque/school bc it was a popular meeting point, but never saw it and sure never saw them in public like that.

with a pope who is washing their feet and urging people to take them in, guess this is what we get...

Fuck the pope

I thought the Knights of Malta represented a dead historic Malta, similar to the Republic of China with respect to China proper. Their exiled military are based in Italy still, not Malta.

People from Malta... do they look like this?

they are based in Italy. It's a bunch of old guys who do charity, most of it for niggers.

If we had a powerful group who cared about europe and churches and Catholicism, think Europe would be as it is?

Haven't been to Europe in 4 years or so, thinking I never want to go back and just keep memories as is.

The birthplace of malt whiskey

easy gambling licenses?

MALTA IS BRITISH CLAY!

>mfw Malta voted 59.6% to join UK
>mfw they needed 60% to do so

Suuuucks.

Very easy

does the mafia run your island?

>A couple of days after a group which calls itself 'Maltese Patriots' gathered in the same place to protest the Muslims and distributed PORK sandwiches
I love Malta now.

Not that I know of. But since it's so easy to get gaming licenses I'm pretty sure the Mafia took advantage of this and launders money like crazy. There are no official ties but some gaming company's licenses have been seized most probably for this reason.

>launders money like crazy
one thing I do know from sister-in-laws family is that everyone launders money there, user. Why it suddenly became such a desireable place to live.

have maltese coast guard been bringing savages ashore or do the italians take all of them?

Maltese and Italian coast guards work together. Some are taken to Malta, the rest are taken to Italy. I don't remember the last time a big number came ashore.

>>A couple of days after a group which calls itself 'Maltese Patriots' gathered in the same place to protest the Muslims and distributed PORK sandwiches.

wtf I love malta now

We had an Emperor once who was a Grandmaster of Knights of Malta.

He got assassinated, so I guess it didn't work out for him.

Maltese people are sicilians who got cucked by the eternal anglo.

>There's like a thread every 2 weeks about me. I guess you can ask me anything.
Do Maltese people hate Muslims as much as I do?
I'm half Maltese myself but I've never met another Maltese person.

Yes Maltese hate Muslims a lot.
