For several weeks now, the people of Salzburg have been amazed at the brand new prohibition signage that have been put up at the playgrounds in the municipality of Puch near Hallein. “Swings only with a registration form?” asks the Salzburg edition of the newspaper “Kronen Zeitung”, which reported on the matter.

The signage read: “Use is only permitted to Puch citizens (persons with their main residence in the municipality of Puch near Hallein)! So far, so good, but an email from Austrian People’s Party (ÖVP) mayor Helmut Klose has now resulted in the involvement of the Office of the Ombudsman for Children and Young People.

Several angry residents contacted the lawyer’s office, for example to clarify the legal basis. It is also unclear whether the local council was involved in the decision at all. The tip of the iceberg, however, is an e-mail that, according to the “Kronen Zeitung”, is being circulated in the village.

In it one can read further remarks on the playground ban. “It is also not accepted when Muslim families spread blankets at the playground and practise their midday religion, that is not part of our culture.”

Parents hope that this is just a misunderstanding of the language. The questions of the Children’s and Young People’s Ombudsman’s Office to the mayor should now clarify this.

Packs of men chase women, drag them into cars, rape them one after the other for hours. Sounds like something out of a bad film, but it really happened. One of the worst of them is said to have been Mohammed T. (28). He has been on trial at the Berlin Regional Court since Thursday.

The Iraqi (nicknamed “Momo”) has been behind bars since September 17, 2020. According to the indictment, three women fell victim to him and his gang. The indictment reads like a horror scenario:

August 1, 2019, Kreuzberg, a taxi stand near Gneisenau. A tourist couple from Australia wants to go back to the hostel. Mistake the car for an Uber taxi. They get in. On the way, the man is thrown into the street. The car drives into a dark corner with the woman. Ella M. (mid-20s) is raped by both occupants in the back seat. One of them is said to have been Mohammed “Momo” T.

January 18, 2020, Friedrichshain, Storkower Street. A high school graduate (18) from Dahlem leaves the techno club “Mensch Meier” at 3.30 a.m., is dragged into an SUV. On the back seat and in a flat she is raped again and again by three men. Four hours of hell and agony.

February 23, 2020, Friedrichshain, techno club “Berghain”. At 3 a.m. a party-goer (21) is dragged into the SUV by four men on Helsingforser Street. “We want sex!”, “Momo” is said to have said, according to the indictment. She is also raped again and again. For four hours. Afterwards, the woman is thrown out of the car with severe genital injuries.

The accused only says that he is a married hairdresser. He says nothing about the charges. “The accusations will be denied, questions will not be answered,” says his defence lawyer.

His genetic fingerprint (DNA traces) on the rape victims should convict him. But the women now have to testify as witnesses and again tell everything in great detail that they would like to forget.

One of the group was already sentenced in March: Wisam B. (33), an ex-policeman from Iraq, is sentenced to 13 years and 6 months in prison (verdict not yet final). He, too, had denied the crime until the end and demanded acquittal.

The trial will be continued on April 12, the verdict is scheduled for June 24.

The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has on Thursday decided that compulsory vaccinations are legal and can be necessary in “democratic” societies. The verdict came after the closure of a complaint brought before the court by Czech families about mandatory vaccinations for children. The court ruling states: “The measures can be seen as ‘necessary in a democratic society’.”

Although the ruling does not deal directly with the Covid-19 vaccine, experts believe it could have an impact on vaccination campaigns against the virus, especially among those who have previously refused to accept the vaccine.

The verdict says that the mandatory vaccinations prescribed by the Czech health authorities are in the “best interests” of children. In addition, the judgment stated: “The goal must be that every child is protected against serious diseases, through vaccination or by means of herd immunity.”

The court ruled that Czech health policy does not violate Article 8 on the right to respect for private life in accordance with the European Convention on Human Rights.

According to Czech law, children must be vaccinated against nine diseases, including diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, hepatitis B and measles.

The case has been brought to court by families who have been fined or whose children have been denied day-care for failing to comply with their statutory vaccination requirement.

But forced vaccinations have not gone smoothly everywhere, at least in some cases in France and Germany. In France, the mayor of the 7th arrondissement in Paris, had wanted to forcefully vaccinate non-priority educational staff. The state cancelled the appointments however.

Rachida Dati, LR mayor of the 7th arrondissement of Paris expresses her anger over the decision. French daily Le Monde reported that, as part of an expanded vaccination of its inhabitants against Covid 19, the mayor had decided to vaccinate teachers and staff from schools and nurseries in her district. These socio-professional categories do not meet the eligibility criteria, the State claimed and opposed the health strategy developed by the elected official and decided to cancel the meetings already organized.

On Thursday, April 8, Dati admonished the government by sending a letter to the Minister of Health, denouncing the “arbitrary and unjustified decision” taken by the Regional Health Agency (ARS) following this decision.

The administration of the AstraZeneca vaccine caused trouble in Gifhorn, Germany: a 52-year-old high-risk patient had refused the jab, but the head vaccinator insisted. The patient has now reported the forced vaccination to the police.

A forced jab with the AstraZeneca vaccine was not well-received, according to a report in the Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung. The family doctor of the 52-year-old Ilmo Wuff, one of the high-risk corona patients due to previous illnesses, certified that Wuff could only be vaccinated with the BioNTech/Pfizervaccine. But at the vaccination center, the head doctor insisted on the controversial AstraZeneca vaccine.

Wuff suffers from the lung disease COPD and is also subject to other health restrictions. Since he is one of the high-risk patients due to his previous illnesses, he has largely avoided contact with other people since the beginning of the Corona crisis, since it could have serious consequences for him. On March 31, 2021, he was able to attend his vaccination appointment at the town hall.

After registering at the vaccination center, however, he was referred to the place where they were giving the vaccinations with the AstraZeneca vaccine. However, the 52-year-old had a certificate from his family doctor that only the BioNTech/Pfizer vaccine was possible for him. In addition, Wuff pointed out that the recommendation for the AstraZeneca vaccine is currently not for under 60-year-olds.

“So I was out of the question for this vaccine. My family doctor had certified that only BioNTech should be considered for me.”

However, the lead doctor interfered and insisted that Wuff be vaccinated with AstraZeneca. If not, Wuff would receive no vaccination and would have to wait a long time for a new appointment.

The head doctor thus simply dismissed Wuff’s concerns and gave him the AstraZeneca jab. This outraged Wuff, because in retrospect he has also suffered from side effects. He therefore filed a complaint with the police for assault.

In February, the state of Berlin became the first federal state to appoint an expert commission on the topic of Muslim hostility. In principle, it is a good idea to deal with the various virulent forms of discrimination and hatred. However, the justice administration, which is mainly responsible for the committee, and the Commissioner for Integration of the Berlin Senate made a serious mistake in appointing the committee.

The Islam Forum of the Integration Commissioner has also appointed Mohamad Hajjaj, managing director of the Islamic association Inssan as well as state chairman of the Central Council of Muslims in Berlin, to the committee.

Research by the newspaper WELT showed that Hajjaj was and is a functionary in several organisations that are considered to be Islamist. For example, he is the deputy chairman of the Teiba Cultural Centre, which is accused by the Office for the Protection of the Constitution of having links to the Muslim Brotherhood, and according to WELT information, he was a representative of the Palestinian Community in Germany (PGD), which according to the Office for the Protection of the Constitution is close to Hamas. Hajjaj denies the connection to the PGD, from whose email account he authorised an interview in which he is quoted as a PGD functionary.

On the Facebook page of the Teiba Cultural Centre, for example, there is a disturbing photo of Hajjaj posing with a group of children, all of the young girls wearing a tightly tied headscarf. Also to protest against such massive discrimination against Muslim girls, the only correct reaction to these investigations would have been to kick Hajjaj out of the commission and to withdraw the lavish financial support from his association Inssan.

The Berlin senate, however, acts differently: The senator of justice and the Green parliamentary group say that it was important to include representatives of Muslim associations. It is therefore correct that the Islam Forum itself has appointed members for the commission – as if there are no Muslim associations that are not involved in Islamism.

The integration commissioner does not like to confirm that Hajjaj is active in associations that are assessed as Islamist by the Office for the Protection of the Constitution. She apparently wants to excuse herself by saying that the last mention in the reports was a few years ago.

This reaction is pathetic. The Greens and the Social Democrats prefer to remain in a mixture of naivety and false tolerance in order not to play into the hands of right-wing Muslim haters. They do not realise that they are doing this by elevating Islamists to representative offices.

Many citizens of Berlin with a migration background from Muslim-majority countries, who left-wing and right-wing identitarians gladly declare collectively to be Muslims,might shake their heads at the fact that the red-red-green state government declares functionaries of political Islam to be their representatives.

Diversity is a big issue at the public broadcasters these days. Those who want to see with their own eyes and financed by their own broadcasting fees how this is implemented can tune in to the programme “Five Souls” from the Southwest German Broadcasting Corporation (SWR). (see also the tweet above)

In this ” diverse ” programme, the three hosts Natasha Kimberly, Hadnet Tesfai and Thelma Buabeng invite two guests to each episode. According to the programme itself, it “takes up relevant topics from the world of relationships and presents them in a humorous way, without neglecting the seriousness of the subject matter”.

The programme proved what is meant by humorous seriousness by inviting Feyza-Yasmin Ayhan. The woman is known as a poetry slammer under her stage name Yasmin Poesy. In 2015, she performed at an event of the “German Youth for Palestine” (DJP) in the Dar as-Salam Mosque in Berlin and put on a performance that must be considered Israel-related anti-Semitism. The “Neuköllner Begegnungsstätte”, to which the mosque belongs, was mentioned in the Berlin report on the protection of the constitution.

The editors must have known who they were inviting into the programme – at least if you search for the name Ayhan on Google. It is also questionable on which relevant topic Ms Feyza-Yasmin Ayhan should have taken a “humorous” stand in the programme.

The journalist Zara Riffler reported on the mag Tichys Einblick about Ayhan’s appearance, which can still be accessed on the net, and her invitation to the SWR programme. While SWR does not want to distance itself from Ayhan and her openly anti-Semitic and anti-Israel statements, the journalist is facing a smear campaign by Ayhan’s management – and this on Thursday, of all days, on Holocaust Remembrance Day in Israel.

Meanwhile, from Ayhan’s social environment, insults such as “The woman obviously has a mental handicap” and the title “Nazi” are hurled at Riffler. Her family, too, is being denigrated at the lowest level. Of course, the usual trivialisation of anti-Semitism with criticism of Israel on the part of Ayhan’s management is not missing.

One of Ayhan’s followers openly threatened Riffler on Instagram and linked the author visible to everyone. Ayhan herself then reacted and played the song “Long live Palestine” by the rapper “Lowkey” as a tribute to the threat. The latter is known for his comparisons of zombies with Zionists.

“In my opinion, a hatemongering call by Ms Ayhan’s management and herself against me as a journalist could only take place because SWR has not publicly distanced itself from Ms Ayhan. SWR has thus given these people a certain amount of power,” said Riffler in an interview with the newspaper JUNGEN FREIHEIT.

“The fact that – as far as I know – no public statement or correction was made about this programme with Ayhan apparently enabled these people to feel encouraged to explain Israel-related anti-Semitism as criticism of Israel. SWR is keeping quiet about this.”

The trailer of her new programme with Yasmin Ayhan is still online:

“So they are still advertising with her for the new show, which would have the aim, or so I was told, of defending the values of an open society.

The programme also featured journalist Malcom Ohanwe and cabaret artist Jasmina Kuhnke, both of whom repeatedly attract attention and make headlines with controversial statements.

In response to a question from the JUNGE FREIHEIT, SWR stated that in selecting the guests, the editorial team follows “clear editorial guidelines. This includes getting a clear picture of the guests’ ideological positions”. The YouTube video with Ayhan’s appearance only came to the attention of the editorial team after the programme had been broadcast. Asked whether the station felt partly responsible for the attacks on Riffler, a spokeswoman said:

“SWR and the team of ‘Five Souls’ are committed to the values of an open society and distance themselves from all expressions of group-related misanthropy, especially anti-Semitic and racist ones. The aim of the talk show ‘Five Souls’ is to defend these ethical values in an entertaining way from a variety of perspectives.”

In 2003, Yassin A. shot a Berlin special forces policeman to death and was sentenced to life in prison. After serving his sentence, he was to be deported and subsequently left the country – now he is legally back in Germany. The Berlin police are stunned.

In the Berlin district of Neukölln, Yassin A. had killed a Berlin special forces officer with a shot to the head in 2003. The Lebanese man was sentenced to life imprisonment for this crime and was supposed to be deported after his release from prison – but the latter failed, according to a report in the newspaper “Bild”.

After the convicted murderer had been sentenced to 15 years, there was a dispute about his scheduled deportation. Yassin A. lodged a complaint against the deportation with the administrative court – and was proven right because of an error by the authorities. The alleged reason: the foreigners authority had failed to consult him.

While he was still a father of two until his crime, the man fathered four more children with his wife in the meeting room of Tegel Prison. A deportation failed – but according to “Bild” there was allegedly an agreement with the foreigners authority.

If Yassin A. would leave for Lebanon for one year, he would be allowed to come back to Germany. If children are still minors and remain behind in Germany, the re-entry ban is usually about one year at the discretion of the authorities. Therefore, Yassin A. was allowed to return after he left in August 2018. “Bild”, on the other hand, reports that he was supposed to leave the country in September 2019. Yassin A. is apparently currently in Berlin.

Martin Pallgen of the Senate Interior Administration contradicted the report of a settlement at the time. “There was no deal, the case was duly terminated before the administrative court,” he told the newspaper “Welt” in 2018. He did not give further details. However, he did not see any mistake on the part of his authority.

In any case, the Berlin police are mightily pissed off about the re-entry of the murderer. “It really upsets us,” Bild quotes a high-ranking Berlin police officer who reports that the case is not an exception. “The Berlin Office for Naturalisation is literally advertising for the quick lifting of the re-entry ban.” An enquiry by the newspaper to the Berlin Senate Department of the Interior about this remained unanswered.

Yassin A. is now allowed to move freely in Germany and Berlin again and also receives child benefit – a total of 1,263 euros per month.
