Polish magazine stirs controversy and rage with its 'Islamic Rape of Europe' cover

What on earth were they thinking?

Anti-refugee sentiment is on the rise throughout Europe with several subsections of society claiming that the influx of refugees from the Middle East is responsible for an increase in crime.

Polish magazine wSieci's cover today depicts a pale-skinned, blonde woman draped in an EU flag which is being torn from her body by muscular, dark-skinned and hairy arms.

The arms are also pulling her hair and grabbing her wrists. The text reads 'The Islamic Rape of Europe'. Unsurprisingly, people are very shocked by the cover.
