“Islamophobia”

Asking asylum seekers about their beliefs is a waste of time. Lying to deceive the enemy is allowed by their religion. The result is that the loss of border control is being followed by the loss of internal control.

Anyone who went to a European Christmas market in the 1990s and early 2000s would never have thought that their life could be in danger. Those days are gone.

In October we discovered that the killer who murdered the children in Southport, England, was not a slightly crazy Rwandan Christian refugee, as the English government and all the mainstream media had assured us, but a terrorist with an Al Qaeda manual in his house and chemical material to make a bomb. For four months they kept the truth hidden. Why?

Whatever motivated the perpetrator to do what he did, his actions were an attack on an intrinsic Western institution

More than 200 people were injured and at least five lost their lives after a man plowed a car into crowds at a Christmas market in the German city of Magdeburg last night. Among those who were indiscriminately murdered was a small child.

Like many Germans, I felt a deep, burning anger rising in me when I heard about the incident. It immediately brought back sickening memories of the 2016 Christmas market attack in Berlin in which thirteen people were killed and dozens injured. My sister worked very closely nearby that day. I remember texting “Are you OK?’ with a shaky hand and waiting agonizing minutes before her reply finally came. It was sheer luck that she and her colleagues had decided not to go to the Christmas market that day.

Last Friday’s atrocity at a Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany had all the hallmarks of a jihadi attack. It was lethal, indiscriminate and utterly horrifying, transforming a boringly familiar object — a car — into a weapon of mass murder. Jihadist groups have been calling for such attacks for well over a decade now, and scores of their supporters have carried them out with deadly effect. A very similar attack to the one in Magdeburg happened in 2016 in Berlin, when Tunisian-born Anis Amri rammed a truck into a group of pedestrians, killing 12 and wounding 56 others.

Another Christmas and the politics of Europe are once again roiled by one of the Continent’s newest traditions: the Christmas market terrorist attack.

Last Friday’s attack on a Christmas market in Magdeburg was carried out by a Saudi-born asylum seeker. In 2016 it was a Tunisian migrant who carried out a similarly horrific attack in Berlin. It is one of the reasons why for the past 10 years these once innocent family events are surrounded by police and very often by what locals sometimes cynically call “diversity bollards”. In a macabre twist, in August this year a Syrian Islamist murdered three people and stabbed eight more at a Festival of Diversity in Solingen.

Germans are not willing to tolerate these attacks becoming ‘normal’.

Germany is still reeling from the deadly attack on a Christmas market on Friday evening. A black BMW was driven into a crowd of market-goers in the city of Magdeburg, leaving at least five people dead and over 40 critically injured. The alleged perpetrator, Taleb al-Abdulmohsen, was arrested at the scene. He is a 50-year-old psychiatrist who came to Germany in 2006 and was granted refugee status in 2016.

… Many see the perpetrator as a violent foreigner regardless of whether he left his faith, with one friend telling me: “Germany didn’t have these kind of attacks done by foreigners before Merkel opened borders in 2015.”

That message is one the Left have struggled to counter.
