A journalist for Germany’s left-leaning Spiegel Magazine, known for its pro-migration views and efforts against the anti-immigration Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, stepped in to protect two elderly women near the North Sea coast, which resulted in a 13-year-old Syrian punching him in the face. Now, he is complaining about a lack of consequences for the youth.
Christian Neef is a well-known journalist for the outlet and has been working for many years for Spiegel. However, Neef himself said he “defended two elderly” women in Husum in the German state of Schleswig-Holstein, which resulted in consequences.
“Today, I had my own experience with a so-called refugee. In Husum, a Syrian punched me in the face. I had defended two elderly women who asked him to get off the back of a public bench on which they were sitting and not to continue to spit at their feet. The interesting thing: The police told me that it was a 13-year-old Syrian who was well-known in the city and who had been caught over 50 times for theft and violent crimes since the beginning of 2024 alone. Sanctions available: none.”
The post led to widespread mockery on X as a case of a liberal journalist suddenly confronting what tens of thousands experience every year, with violence, sexual assault, and robberies skyrocketing in Germany due to mass immigration.
One X user wrote, “It could be that they learned more in this moment than in their 26 years at Spiegel.
If they’re lucky.”
Another wrote, “Individual case, as always,” with the user referring to the left-liberal tendency to describe the many cases of individual crimes involving migrants as “individual” cases that do not represent migrants as a whole. For many critics of this term, the “individual” cases accumulate into hundreds of thousands of crimes that have affected millions of Germans.
Ex-AfD politician Tatjana Festerling wrote, “Oh well! The Big Thinking people in the Refugees Welcome whining editorial offices need their own ‘experiences’ before they realize that low-trust cultures can never be integrated into high-trust societies. When I explained this in Pegida speeches in 2015, the reaction was ‘Racist!’”
Some users said the problem would only get worse due to a general disregard for German laws from many within the immigrant population, with one writing: “German laws apparently motivate many Muslims not to comply with them. What is going on should actually be called what it is: terror against the native population. And of course, things are not getting any better, quite the opposite. The terror continues until the goal is achieved and dozens of countries have done that.”
While speaking with German newspaper Junge Freiheit in response to what had happened, a police spokesman stated that they were aware of the incident.
“No information will be given about the identity of the suspect, who is still a child. The suspect comes from the district and has already come to the attention of the police due to similar crimes,” said the spokesman, who refused to provide any more details.
As Remix News reported in the past, the issue of underage migrants flagrantly conducting criminal activity in Germany is a major problem, as current laws do not allow for any type of punishment. Just this weekend, an 11-year-old Moroccan migrant leading a youth gang was arrested for over 70 burglaries in and outside Hamburg but will face no jail time. In some cases, even one involving the rape of an 11-year-old girl, the German state has refused to issue jail time because the criminal migrant was under the age of 18.
