Too Little, Too Late: German Government Talks Tough On Immigration

The German left-liberal government is trying to get tougher on immigration after the knife attack in Solingen that left three innocent people dead and a country shocked and angered about the rise of crime among migrants. The steps may prove to be too little, too late, as anti-immigration parties look to dominate the upcoming regional elections in three eastern states.

After years of failing to address the root causes of the problem, the federal government, consisting of the Social Democrats, the Greens, and the liberal FDP, has announced new measures to toughen knife controls and curb benefits for some illegal migrants.

As we reported, a 26-year-old failed asylum seeker from Syria attacked festivalgoers with a knife in the western German city of Solingen last week, killing three people and injuring eight.

The knife attack is the latest in a series of similar violent crimes committed by mostly Afghan and Syrian migrants in recent months. According to a police report, “in relation to the total population, non-Germans are statistically six times more likely to resort to knives in an attack than German citizens.”

Following public outrage, the government has finally decided to take action—although the measures announced on Thursday, August 29th, seem more like a desperate attempt to show something is being done rather than attacking the root cause of the problem: a failure to stop illegal immigration.

First of all, announced Interior Minister Nancy Faeser, carrying knives at festivals, sports events, and other similar public events will be banned, with reasoned exceptions to the ban. Knives will also be banned on long-distance trains and buses, and police will be given more powers to search members of the public. There will also be a general ban on carrying flick knives.

Faeser had previously proposed limiting the length of knives that can be carried in public to 6 centimetres (from the current 12 centimetres). Critics have argued that people, not knives, are responsible for these heinous attacks, so a ban would not amount to much.

Police will also be allowed to use Tasers against violent offenders, and authorities will be empowered to carry out more rigorous background checks on applicants for weapons licences. Investigators will be allowed to use facial recognition software to identify terror suspects and employ artificial intelligence to analyse police data.

The Solingen attacker should have been deported last year but because the immigration officers couldn’t find him on the day they were supposed to collect him, authorities inexplicably decided to let him stay in Germany and granted him ‘subsidiary protection’ and further social benefits.

Justice Minister Marco Buschmann said on Thursday that “the entire process must be examined, must be made more effective, so that we can deport people more quickly.” Nancy Faeser announced that in the future, Germany would refuse benefits payments to migrants set to be deported to other countries in the European Union. In the case of the Syrian knife attacker in Solingen, he arrived in Germany from Bulgaria, which is the country where he should have sought asylum—and gotten whatever support that country provides.

Faeser also indicated that the government would try to “remove hurdles” to quicker deportations, and to work “intensively” to restart deportations to Afghanistan and Syria, especially with regards to Afghans and Syrians who have committed serious crimes. Deportations have been halted for several years due to the two countries being designated unsafe countries of origin.

Despite ongoing promises by Chancellor Olaf Scholz and his government to speed up deportations, of the nearly 250,000 people in Germany slated for deportation last year, only around 16,000 were actually deported.

There has also been outrage over the fact that thousands of Afghan citizens who have claimed asylum in Germany have flown back to their home country for a holiday. According to the government’s new proposals, refugees who travel to their home countries without compelling reason risk losing their protection status.

Perfectly timed to try to demonstrate that the government is already taking action, on Friday, August 30th, it carried out the first deportation of Afghans back to their home country since August 2021. “These were Afghan nationals, all of whom were convicted offenders who had no right to stay in Germany and against whom deportation orders had been issued,” a government spokesman said.

A chartered Qatar Airways flight bound for Kabul took off from Leipzig airport in the early hours of Friday, with 28 Afghans on board. The operation was the result of two months of “secret negotiations” in which Qatar acted as the go-between between Berlin and the Taliban authorities, Der Spiegel reported.

Each one of the Afghans, among them child molesters and gang rapists, received €1,000 in cash, prompting conservative publication Junge Freiheit to comment:

This story will spread quickly in Afghanistan. And the story will not be that Germany has started deporting people, but that it is financially beneficial to attack women and children in Germany. No, a government cannot sink any lower.

The failure of the government to address all the above-mentioned problems will surely manifest itself in the strengthening of anti-immigration parties at this weekend’s regional elections in the eastern German states of Saxony and Thuringia.

Right-wing Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) and left-wing Bündnis Sahra Wagenknecht (BSW) are projected to win between 40 and 50% of all votes—a huge blow for establishment parties, including the centre-right CDU, who have contributed to a huge influx of immigrants in the past decades. Following the Solingen attack, co-leader of the AfD Alice Weidel called for a stop to immigration for five years.

Germany: Murder victims in the Solingen massacre were activists in favor of ‘tolerance’ and ‘integration’

After three people were murdered in Solingen by a Syrian Islamists, along with eight other injured, including four seriously, it has been revealed that at least the murder victims were “liberal-minded” and at least one of them belonged to a pro-migrant organization.

Given that the murders happened at the Festival of Diversity, it is no surprise that many of the victims belong to left-leaning organizations dedicated to progressive topics, such as an openness to refugees. These organizations promoted “peaceful coexistence” with other peoples and cultures, according to Germany’s Focus Magazine.

The alleged attacker, identified as 26-year-old Islamist Issa Al H., was supposed to have been deported in 2022 but was instead given protected status after he went into hiding for six months.

Among those killed in the attack was Ines W., whose husband was also seriously injured. She was a pharmacist and a member of the OTV canoeists, who had campaigned for integration with foreigners. According to German newspaper Rheinische Post, she was attending the Festival of Diversity because it was “very important to her.” Members of the pro-migrant club have reportedly met to “mourn together.”

Also among those killed was 67-year-old Stefan S. who worked at the Oetelshofen lime works in Wuppertal, with employees saying they were “deeply affected by the loss of their long-time colleague.”

He was described as “a liberal, educated person, someone who wanted to understand all sides. For a cosmopolitan person like him, it was only logical to visit the ‘Festival of Diversity’ in Solingen,” according to the Rheinische Post.

Managing director Till Iseke wrote for the victim’s obituary: “Dear Stefan, you were both a colleague and a friend to us and a person who thought outside the box and lived by values ​​such as openness and tolerance. The fact that you were fatally injured in a vile attack at a peaceful festival leaves us stunned, angry and sad.”

Regarding the third victim, Florian H., he lived in Düsseldorf and worked in Solingen, but there has been little information released about him. However, neighbors said he was a “rock-and-roll” guy who had a ponytail and liked to play guitar.

Among the injured were members of the Solingen cultural association Cobra, including board members. The association is not political but organizes live events and concerts in the city.

“We are still shocked by the events of Friday evening. We feel deep sadness for the dead and great sympathy for their relatives,” the group wrote on Facebook. The cultural association did not want to comment further.

Many of the victims are currently on the road to recovery, according to officials, even though they initially suffered serious injuries during the attack.

Rights of Europe’s Multicultural Enrichers

It is important for Europeans to understand that the Muslims imported in vast numbers to displace them have certain rights.

For example, they have a right to publicly murder people when their conception of honor is involved:

A woman was fatally injured in a knife attack in the Zehlendorf district of Berlin on Wednesday evening. …

The police arrested 50-year-old A. The investigators are considering a possible ‘honour killing’. The public prosecutor’s office assumes that the ex-husband from Lebanon deliberately and intentionally killed the woman, who was also Lebanese. He is said to have ambushed Nurhan B. in front of the house. ‘The woman had separated from her husband. He wanted to restore his honour,’ said a spokesperson for the public prosecutor’s office. Eyewitnesses report that A. repeatedly shouted during the crime: ‘ I have the right to do this.’

Also, they have a right for you not to sit next to them on the subway:

A woman was attacked and injured with a screwdriver by a man wearing a djellaba on the Toulouse metro at around 11.30am on Thursday, according to a police source. At the ‘Trois cocus’ station, the victim had sat down next to the perpetrator on a seat on the metro platform when he insulted her and ordered her to change seats.

He resolved the ensuing argument by stabbing her in the face and running away.

An active search is underway for the fleeing suspect.

A Muslim colonist in a djellaba shouldn’t be hard to find in Toulouse. Finding the right one, on the other hand…

Know their rights, Europeans. It may help to keep you safe.

Carbon offsets have always been just another global warming scam

Image: Pixabay / Pixabay License

By Jack Hellner

It has been obvious from the day carbon credits started that they are worthless pieces of paper that allow rich people and companies to pretend that they are reducing their carbon footprint.

Anyone with a brain could recognize that buying a carbon offset credit from Tesla or some other green company did not reduce the amount of carbon that a jet, house, yacht, mansion, or factory emitted.

This scam has been going on for almost three decades. It has made the offset producers very rich.

In 1997, the original international compliance carbon markets emerged from the Kyoto Protocol, which established three mechanisms that enable countries or operators in developed countries to acquire offset credits.

But now, one of the biggest green pushers of all, the Washington Post, has done an investigation and determined that carbon offsets are a scam. So, it took these Democrat campaign workers, posing as journalists almost 30 years to determine something that has been obvious from the start.

Getting to Net Zero is also a scam.

The next big climate target: Ending carbon offset scams

A Post investigation exposed many carbon offsets as illegitimate, but companies still buy into them.

Carbon offsets or credits are investments in sustainability projects around the globe that, in theory, conserve enough emissions to counteract those produced by carbon-intensive activities such as manufacturing or jet travel. The projects represent a variety of efforts, including renewable energy development and reforestation schemes. Another popular offset class is forest conservation, touted as protecting trees that absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. And it’s not just travelers who can purchase a stake in such projects; corporations and governments have made carbon offsets a multibillion-dollar market by purchasing enough credits to earn their “carbon-neutral” labels.

It would be nice if the WaPo and any of the other green pushers that the whole green agenda that says humans and our use of oil, natural gas, and coal controls temperatures, sea levels and storm activity is also a big scam created for the purpose of having the powerful government control our lives.

The green pushers have never shown a link between our consumption of oil and temperatures and yet the WaPo and others just repeat the talking points (lies) that the science is settled.

When will the green pushers admit that electric vehicles will not reduce temperatures and have no effect on sea levels and storm activity.

Maybe someday they will do an investigation that shows the harm that lithium powered vehicles, wind turbines, and solar panels cause to the environment. That is obviously a dream because the green pushers have never really cared about anything but power and enriching themselves.

The reason Detroit is hitting pause is that they are losing their shorts on producing expensive, impractical vehicles that Democrats are forcing them to make but that few people want. The Washington Post ran one on this with this headline:

Why Detroit is hitting ‘pause’ on electric vehicles

The truth is that the climate has always changed cyclically and naturally. We have had many heating and cooling periods and humans, and natural resources have had nothing to do with it.

But if any politician says that the WaPo and other Democrat campaign workers will call them climate change deniers and seek to destroy them.

It is all a scam!

‘I’ll kill you and your families!”: Somali asylum seeker stabs German supermarket customers

He apparently coughed at people indiscriminately. When a man asked him to stop, a Somali man (27) allegedly threatened him with death on Monday afternoon and stabbed him in the direction of his neck with a knife!
The man, who had caused a major police operation in Waltershausen (Thuringia), was held in custody until 11.34 pm on Tuesday. Then he was taken to prison. At around 5.30 pm, the African is said to have started a fight in front of the Netto supermarket in August-Trinius-Straße and threatened customers who were shopping. A 46-year-old man from Waltershausen was slightly injured by a knife attack.
The public prosecutor’s office in Erfurt is now investigating the accused for attempted manslaughter, causing grievous bodily harm and threatening behaviour.

Senior public prosecutor Hannes Grünseisen: ‘The accused allegedly said to the injured party and other people “I’ll kill you and your families”. He then allegedly stabbed the injured party in the direction of his neck with a knife, accepting his death. ‘Fortunately, the injured party was able to evade and was only slightly injured in the back despite being stabbed several times by the attacker, who already had a criminal record for violent offences. Witnesses intervened and called the emergency services. When the police arrived with around 30 officers, the intoxicated man from Somalia was arrested without resistance and the public prosecutor’s office in Erfurt issued an arrest warrant at Gotha district court.
But time was running out for the arrest presentation: the appointment scheduled for the afternoon in Gotha was cancelled because the interpreter who had been appointed did not turn up. However, the accused must be brought before the magistrate within 24 hours, otherwise the knife-wielding Somali, who was presented wearing an FFP2 mask, would have had to be released. The judge’s decision was therefore made in Erfurt and took almost until midnight.
The man faces up to 15 years in prison.

Germany: Ditib imam sings Quran verses at school enrolment ceremony

 Screenshot X

During a school enrolment ceremony at a primary school in Stadtallendorf, Hesse, an imam recited the first sura of the Quran, the ‘Al-Fatiha’, in front of the pupils. Apollo News research shows that this imam belongs to the local DITIB mosque.

‘In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate. All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, the Gracious, the Merciful, the Ruler on the Day of Judgement. You alone do we serve, and You alone do we ask for help. Guide us to the straight path,’ it says. Students listened to the imam while he sang the introduction to the Koran.

Following this public ceremony, there was a celebration for the Muslim pupils at the local DITIB mosque, according to Instagram posts from the community. The Nordschule did not initially respond to an Apollo News enquiry.

A legal dispute has broken out in Hesse over Islamic religious education, in which the mosque organisation DITIB (Turkish-Islamic Union of the Institute for Religion) is attempting to secure its influence over teaching in schools. DITIB, an organisation that is subordinate to the Turkish religious authority and therefore closely linked to Erdogan’s regime, wants to ensure that Hessian schoolchildren only attend their religious education classes and that state-organised, knowledge-oriented Islamic lessons are stopped.

The background to this conflict dates back to 2013, when Hesse ended its cooperation with DITIB. This decision was made due to constitutional concerns arising from the organisation’s close ties to the Turkish government. In 2019, the Hessian state government responded to this situation by introducing its own, secularised version of Islamic religious education. These lessons were intended to be politically neutral and were established as an alternative to the lessons offered by DITIB.

DITIB did not accept this decision and took the matter to court. In 2022, the Hessian Administrative Court ruled that the state of Hesse was not authorised to discontinue DITIB’s religious instruction, despite an expert opinion suggesting possible political influence by Turkey. However, the court ruled that cooperation could only be revoked if a concrete political instrumentalisation of DITIB Hessen could be proven.

Around 2,200 pupils are currently attending state Islamic classes at 20 primary schools and five secondary schools. These lessons are voluntary and are initially limited until the 2025/2026 school year. In comparison, the denominational religious education offered by DITIB in cooperation with the state attracts around 1,700 pupils.

Afghan refugees threaten online to decapitate all Germans who do not convert to Islam

They pose in paramilitary outfits holding knives, call themselves the ‘King of Munich’ and think Sharia law is good: according to an investigation by the RTL programme ‘Extra’, young refugees from Afghanistan are spreading radical Islamic ideas, even though they are allegedly seeking protection from the Taliban in Germany.

According to the programme, the videos were not made in Afghanistan, Syria or Turkey, but in Germany – for example in city centres, asylum centres or Bavarian parks – and when the RTL reporters investigated the videos, they uncovered a broad network of like-minded people as far away as France. In the videos, this group threatened, among other things, to ‘cut off heads’ and attack the ‘enemies of Islam’, if necessary with explosives on their bodies.

When reporter Liv von Boetticher tracks down one of the Afghan TikTok users in a park and speaks to him, the Afghan does not deny his support for the values of the Taliban. ‘The Islamic Emirate of the Taliban to me is definitely better. There is no more war, no more theft. Nothing. If thieves are caught, their hand is cut off.’

It is said that the migrants came to Germany for economic reasons. The young men even support a caliphate in Germany: ‘If Germany becomes and remains Islamic, then everything will be very good,’ one of them is quoted as saying.

Extremism expert Ahmad Mansur sees these young migrants as an underestimated danger: ‘These are people who are very close to extremism, to Islamism,’ Mansur explains in the article. ‘The attitudes they have towards mainstream society in Germany and Europe are very hostile.’

These men ‘grew up with an understanding of Islam that is actually much closer to that of the Taliban’ than to that of modern Islam, explains Mansur. You can see a ‘lifestyle Islamism here. Men who live out their masculinity in a very toxic, very patriarchal way.’ Syria, Afghanistan and Turkey are currently among the most common countries of origin for asylum seekers. The current legal situation stipulates that every asylum application must be examined – even if the person entered the country via another country. This was also the case for the suspect in the Solingen attack. The 26-year-old Syrian Issa Al Hassan managed to prevent his deportation to Bulgaria and obtain subsidiary protection in Germany because the authorities let deadlines pass.

‘Now the point has been reached where even the last person sitting in the federal government has to understand that things can’t go on like this,’ CDU Secretary General Carsten Linnemann is quoted as saying in the RTL report. The federal police union also speaks of a ‘loss of control’ at German borders that needs to be rectified.

The RTL reporters claim to have informed the Bavarian Office for the Protection of the Constitution about their research. However, the videos remained online until the programme was published.

Pope Francis Says Failing to Destroy Christianity is a “Grave Sin”

Any people, country or belief system that adopts ideas that require their or its own destruction is suicidal.

Pope Francis, doing his best Gandhi imitation, keeps demanding that Europe, and Christianity with it, commit suicide to accommodate the mobs of invading Muslim migrants who are out to destroy Europe and Christian civilization.

Pope Francis on Wednesday strongly decried the treatment of migrants crossing the Mediterranean Sea to enter Europe, saying it was a “grave sin” not to offer aid to migrant vessels.

“There are those who work systematically and with every means to reject migrants,” the pontiff said during his weekly general audience in St. Peter’s Square.

“And this, when done with conscience and responsibility, is a grave sin,” he said.

Francis on Wednesday called for expanding access routes for migrants and a “global governance of migration based on justice, brotherhood and solidarity.” The pope said the issue would not be resolved through the “militarization of borders”.

The Vatican ‘militarizes’ its own borders. You can’t just walk in on Pope Francis shaving. But Pope Francis argues that millions of Muslim invaders should be able to walk into Europe and take it over.

Defending against them is a “grave sin”.

If the choice is between grave sin and national and civilizational suicide, that’s a tough but inevitable choice that everyone is being asked to make.

Liberal Christian and Jewish leaders insist on surrender. Liberal political leaders demand open borders. All of that will eliminate their own movements, countries, and cultures.

Suicide or survival, the two ‘S’s’, is the fundamental choice facing Europe and all of human civilization.

AUSTRALIA: Trans-Identified Sex Offender Accused of Running Pedophile Ring In Jail – Media Reports Him as “Female”

A high-risk and serial sex offender who preys on children has been accused of running a child abuse ring from within a male prison in New South Wales. Media reports have referred to Dean Angus Bell, 31, as “female” on the basis that he began claiming to be transgender behind bars and adopted the name “Jessica Isabelle Rose.”

On August 27, Bell was arrested at Junee Correctional Facility following a four-month investigation into the production and distribution of child sexual abuse material among fellow inmates. He has been charged with eight counts of producing child abuse material, eight counts of disseminating child abuse material, and knowingly or recklessly directing a criminal group.

As reported by Daily Mail Australia, Bell referred to himself as the “Leader of the Pack,” with the “pack” involving a group of male inmates accused of sharing letters with each other which detailed graphic descriptions of first-hand experiences of sexually abusing children, along with plans to commit additional rapes upon release. NSW Police stated that murder was mentioned in one of the letters.

Bell, currently incarcerated for breaching an extended supervision order by accessing child sexual abuse material, is said to have run the group from his prison cell. He appeared in Wagga Wagga Local Court on Tuesday accused of running the child abuse ring and will return to court in October.

But despite his lengthy record of sexually abusing children, Daily Mail Australia referred to Bell as a “notorious female pedophile” and “Ms. Rose” in their recent report – even though five years ago, a now-deleted Daily Mail article about Bell referred to him as a male.

Bell, who is officially classified as a high-risk sex offender, has been in and out of jail since the age of 18. In 2013, at the age of 20, he was found to have been using social media to groom a 13 year-old boy for sexual abuse.

In September of 2014, Bell contacted a 14-year-old girl, who he attempted to have convince her friend, another 13-year-old boy, to perform sex acts on him in exchange for $100, cigarettes, and drugs. Additionally, Bell was found in possession of child sexual abuse material, and had been taking photos of children in public.

Reduxx also discovered an X account from that period which appears to have belonged to Bell and uses a childhood photo of himself as a profile picture. Posts made to the account show his obsession with Justin Bieber, and Bell inviting followers to participate in video chats with him.

The child sexual predator was then sent back to prison for a minimum of two years and was released on June 19, 2017, but within hours, was discovered to have again tried to establish contact with the same 13 year-old boy. In a text message sent to the boy’s friend, he described being “depressed” at not being able to see the child, and his contact sent him the boy’s phone number. The incident was reported to police by the boy’s mother after she found a text message Bell sent to her son.

Once again, Bell was sent back to jail for 13 months, and scheduled for release in July of 2018.

A risk assessment report on Bell’s behavior conducted by expert psychologists at the time concluded, “Compared to other adult male sex offenders, Bell’s score is in the 99th percentile,” labeling him a high-risk sex offender.

“It is concerning that, despite having spent 21 months in custody for interactions with persons under the age of 18, one of Bell’s first actions after release from custody was to ‘allegedly’ attempt to contact his victim,” the report read.

Disturbingly, the next year, Bell was found to be living next to a day care center, primary school and high school, prompting concerned residents to organize a petition to have him removed from the area. The petition received nearly 30,000 signatures.

Bell is not the first sadistic Australian pedophile to be referred to as a “female” by media, obfuscating his birth sex and misleading readers.

As previously reported by Reduxx, another Aussie predator who was found to be facilitating child sexual abuse while behind bars was similarly treated as a “woman” by both courts and the press.

Robert Gordon Cummins was in custody on child sex offenses at Perth’s maximum-security Casuarina Prison when he devised a scheme to establish a child sex trafficking ring in Thailand upon his release. Along with two other inmates, Cummins schemed to set up a doll-making business called “Little Angels” as a cover, with the intention of employing low-income women from rural areas in order to gain access to their children.

After he was released on parole in 2008, Cummins became the “pipeline” for carrying out the plan, and began researching properties for sale and information about false passports while contacting Thai mothers whose children were being considered for potential abuse. Cummins also sent financial contributions to the impoverished women to build up their trust.

In exchange for pleading guilty, testifying in court, and confessing to the plan, Cummins was handed a reduced sentence of two years and seven months. He was released the day after the trial ended in September 2012, but would go on to be convicted of further sex crimes in later years.
