Jew-Hate in Germany

A nation’s badge of shame.

Antisemitism is the oldest hatred and the most pernicious. It exists even in places where there are no Jews. In Europe, antisemitism has been an instrument to scapegoat the Jews. Germany, the nation that perpetrated the Holocaust and is directly responsible for the murder of Six Million Jews, continues to exhibit its endemic antisemitic tendencies. The Department for Research and Information on Anti-Semitism (RIAS) has documented 2,480 incidents of antisemitic attacks in 2022, or about seven incidents daily. Much like the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in the USA, RIAS tends to find antisemitism mostly in right-wing circles and tends to minimize left-wing and Islamist manifestations of antisemitism. Since the 2015 influx of Muslim immigrants into Germany, anti-Jewish acts of violence and abuse have gone up exponentially. In 2019, for example, the German government documented 2,032 antisemitic incidents. Germany has absorbed about 1.5 million migrants, the overwhelming majority being from Arab-Muslim countries.

Germany’s far-right AfD derides EU as ‘failed project’

Germany’s far-right AfD on Sunday derided the EU as a “failed project” during a party conference in the eastern German city of Magdeburg.

A text adopted by hundreds of party delegates at the event said the bloc “completely failed” on issues such as climate and immigration. The party also said it does not support the Euro as a currency.

However, the text did not urge Germany to leave the EU. The AfD also did not call for the bloc to be dissolved entirely, as suggested by an earlier party draft in June.

Syrian man accused over 2013 massacre arrested in Germany

A Syrian man accused of leading a pro-government militia in Tadamon, a Damascus neighbourhood that was the site of a massacre of civilians in 2013 filmed by its perpetrators and revealed by the Guardian last year, has been arrested in northern Germany.

The suspect, identified as Ahmad H in line with German privacy rules, is the first person to be detained in connection with crimes in Tadamon, where militia and soldiers loyal to the Syrian president, Bashar al-Assad, brutalised the local population – recording some of their acts – in the early years of the country’s civil war.

He is accused of crimes against humanity and war crimes including torture and enslavement, prosecutors said on Thursday.

AfD: German voters shift toward far right

The far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) has received another boost in the polls: If federal elections were held this week, the populist party would win 21% of the vote, putting it firmly in second place behind the center-right bloc of Christian Democratic Union and Christian Social Union (CDU/CSU), which remain the strongest force at 27%, despite taking some small losses.

That is according to the latest edition of the representative “Deutschlandtrend” survey, for which pollster infratest reached out to 1,297 eligible voters via phone or email between July 31 and August 2.

German Village Successfully Revolts Against Refugee Centre

A village in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia has revolted and successfully pushed back plans by local authorities to house 450 asylum seekers in a former monastery building. According to the publication Junge Freiheit, there were scenes of jubilation at a town hall meeting on Monday, July 31st, in Oeventrop, when the owner of the building, Christoph Kraas, announced that, without the support of the community, he would not lease the monastery to the local government for accommodating the migrants. Kraas, also a resident of the village, would have gained several million euros in rent per year, but must now pass up the opportunity.

AfD voters can’t be ignored forever

The rise of populism is provoking hysteria among the German elites.

The rise of the AfD (Alternative für Deutschland), Germany’s right-wing populist party, is continuing to rattle the political establishment. Last month, the leader of the centre-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU) caused uproar when he suggested that his party might be willing to cooperate with the AfD at the local level.

German intel: AfD taken over by extremist factions

The far-right Alternative for Germany party has become increasingly influenced by extremist conspiracy theorists, according to the head of German domestic intelligence.

The head of Germany’s domestic intelligence agency has warned that the Alternative for Germany (AfD) has become increasingly extremist and anti-democratic as the far-right party, surging in opinion polls, picks new candidates for EU elections.

Thomas Haldenwang, president of Germany’s Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV), told the DPA news agency that some of the AfD candidates had expressed “far-right extremist conspiracy theories” during the party conference in Magdeburg, where the selections were made over the weekend.

Haldenwang said party members were swapping openly racist theories such as the “Great Replacement,” which holds that political elites are deliberately introducing nonwhite migrants into Europe to supplant the white race.

Yea just a conspiracy – Germany in a state of SIEGE: Merkel was cheered when she opened the floodgates to migrants. Now, with gangs of men roaming the streets and young German women being told to cover up, the mood’s changing

Germany wants more women in the military

Germany wants you for the armed forces — especially if you’re a woman. Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s Cabinet adopted a series of measures this week to boost equal opportunity in the military.

The changes aim to align procedures in the Bundeswehr, Germany’s armed forces, with a recent strengthening of equal opportunity laws that apply to the government overall. The Bundeswehr needs people to fill its ranks, as part of Germany’s efforts to bolster its military capabilities in response to Russia’s war in Ukraine.

How the AfD won over Germany

The political mainstream is blind to their allure

To understand how the far-Right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) became Germany’s second-largest party, consider the events of the past five days. In an interview with the state broadcaster ZDF on Sunday, Friedrich Merz, the leader of Angela Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU), made the mistake of suggesting that he would be willing to work in a coalition with the far-Right party. Less than 24 hours later, after facing a barrage of outrage, he was forced into a humiliating U-turn. This is how Germany’s political class hopes to deal with the rise of the AfD: their political resonance is recognised, but any breaking of the cordon sanitaire around them is regarded as dangerous legitimisation.

Germany struggles to house refugees

The calls for help keep coming from municipalities that are running out of room to take in asylum seekers and war refugees from Ukraine. The latest example: the Fulda district in the central German state of Hesse. Towns and municipalities are “at the absolute limit of their capacity” to accommodate people “at least halfway humanely,” reads a letter from the county council to the state and federal governments, which a large majority of local lawmakers endorsed in mid-July.

German Climate Extremists Escape Criminal Organisation Classification

‘Letzte Generation’—or ‘the Last Generation’—Germany’s leading extremist climate alarmist group, will not be classified as a criminal organisation despite having engaged in as many as 580 criminal offences since 2022.

On Wednesday, July 19th, the Berlin Senate Justice Department announced the result of its reviews into the activity of the group and stated that it did not believe it was needed to classify Last Generation as a criminal organisation, according to a report in Die Welt.

Germany Far Off the Windmill Mark

Deprived of Russian natural gas, and having closed its nuclear plants, Germany is also behind on its wind energy goals.

A new report from the wind energy association Bundesverband WindEnergie shows that the country is far off from meeting its targets for wind energy installations—an important factor in achieving its set goal of producing 80% of electricity from renewable sources by 2030.

The report showed that though windmill installation was speeding up, “the expansion falls short of the requirements for reliably achieving an expansion target of 115 GW in 2030.”
