The German Federal Minister for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth Franziska Giffey appointed Ouassima Laabich-Mansour ( also known as Quassima Laabich), who is a member of the board of directors of the Muslim Youth of Germany (MJD), to moderate the Federal Government’s Youth Hearing? The MJD is considered the youth organisation of the German Muslim Community of Germany (DMG), which is the largest organisation in this country in which Muslim Brotherhood members organise themselves.Why does the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth (BFSFJ) repeatedly promote Islamist organisations and activists, among other things via the “Live Democracy” campaign? Why are such activists presented to uninformed young people as ordinary Muslims? What is the point? Who is profiting? What is the profit and motivation of the decision-makers there in the ministry? Why are Muslim brothers and sisters promoted, supported, protected and secretly passed off as ordinary Muslims?

Heavily armed and hooded police officers are already deployed in front of the entrance to the Judicial Centre on Thursday morning. The reason for the increased security precautions is a trial that has started in the large jury courtroom of the regional court in the morning.

A 22-year-old Chechen is in the dock, accused of being a member of a terrorist organisation and a criminal organisation. In addition, the 22-year-old is accused of re-offending in the National Socialist sense, as well as of possessing pornographic images of minors and of forging an identity card.

The accused had arrived in Austria in March 2019, where he was accommodated in refugee accommodation. Until a house search had taken place in November of the previous year, the man had allegedly participated as a member of a terrorist organisation, according to the indictment.

In his accommodation in Eisenstadt, the 22-year-old, who has since received a rejected asylum decision, is alleged to have sung Islamic fight songs and voiced that jihad was good. About 600 files on IS, including propaganda and torture videos, were found on his mobile phone, according to the accusation. Among them were videos showing brutal atrocities against people.

The man is also said to have been active in the National Socialist sense: Among other things, the Chechen is said to have collected and possessed pictures of Adolf Hitler and other relevant visual material. During the house search in the accused’s accommodation, more than 30 files were found showing pornographic images of minors.

The accused showed partial confession in court. According to his lawyer, Andreas Schweitzer, his client had joined a Whats-App group where the propaganda has been sent. “What he got, many others also received,” said the defence lawyer.

Some of the files were sent on by his client. It was only stored on his mobile phone because photos were automatically saved by Whats-App.

“Are you now addicted to Islam or to National Socialism?” the defence lawyer had asked his client. His client answered: “I got these, I didn’t think anything of it. He had nothing to do with National Socialism.

He also thinks his client has nothing to do with National Socialism, says lawyer Schweitzer. “My client is still young, he can still change his mind.” The accused himself confessed in part.

He described how he had been imprisoned and tortured in his home country because a friend had sent him a video with content critical of the system. For this reason, and also because one of his brothers lives in Austria, he had also come to Austria. The fact that another brother had fought for the IS in Syria had not been a role model for him, the accused said. “Of course I love my brother, but not as a fighter.

When asked why he had possessed pornographic material of minors, tears come to his eyes. “I am terribly sorry, I am ashamed of it.”

Witnesses are to be heard in the afternoon, a verdict is expected in the evening.

The largest German ruling party, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and its Bavarian ally, the Christian Socialist Union (CSU), are in a deep confidence and identity crisis, according to Süddeutsche Zeitung. The reason may be a negative perception of epidemic management, but the troubles are compounded by the recent political scandals over the health emergency.

“The federal government has allowed the political and economic interests of parliamentarians and the country’s health needs to form an explosive mix that is now threatening those in power to lose their credibility,” the liberal daily Süddeutsche Zeitung wrote in an article about the recent scandals involving CDU politicians.

Last week, it was revealed that Nikolas Löbel, a Christian Democratic Union (CDU) politician, procured health masks from China for a hospital management company and a nursing home company last spring in the first phase of a coronavirus epidemic when the product was in short supply worldwide.

Through its work as an intermediary, the company earned a revenue of €250,000. Georg Nüßlein, a representative of the smaller coalition partner, the Bavarian Christian Social Union (CSU), was investigated for helping a company producing health protective clothing and masks, receiving a commission of €660,000 for his services, also through his company.

“There is a consensus in the press that, as a member of parliament, one should simply not profit from a health crisis,” András Hettyey, assistant professor at the National University of Public Administration, toldHungarian daily Magyar Nemzet.

The deals in question were not so much a matter of legal, but rather of moral concern, so the two parties soon distanced themselves from their representatives and called for their resignation. Löbel also resigned and became a member of the CDU, and Nüßlein, while also resigning from the CSU, did not return his MP mandate for the time being.

In response to popular outrage, Health Minister Jens Spahn (CDU), stressed the need to make public the names of all MPs who have contacted the ministry in connection with mask procurement matters. Ralph Brinkhaus, CDU/CSU joint Bundestag caucus leader, promised an inquiry.

“There is no place among us for those who have benefited financially from the purchase of protective equipment in this emergency,” Brinkhaus said.

According to András Hettyey, these issues will certainly have an impact in the short term, but it is a question of whether the outrage will last until the autumn federal elections.

But the CDU’s troubles do not stop here: Parliament recently waived the immunity of CDU MP Axel Fischer so he can be investigated on suspicion of receiving bribes from Azerbaijan. Another Christian Democrat, Philipp Amthor, was found to have received shares in return for lobbying for an American technology company.

“The party funding scandal [of 1999] had almost ruined the CDU, and the current scandal could be of a similar caliber if new stories come to light every week,” CDU MP Olav Gutting told the Financial Times, recalling that support for the Christian Democrats had fallen from 45 to 31 percent in a few months as a result of an outbreak of illegal party donations in 1999, and presumably contributed to their 2002 election defeat.

The impact of the current affairs may not yet be seen in the surveys, but the Christian Democrats are doing badly even without it. According to the latest opinion poll, their support is at 30 percent, compared with 40 percent a year ago, when the seemingly successful treatment of the coronavirus epidemic boosted their popularity.

Germany’s ‘mask scandal’ leaves CDU/CSU with confidence and identity crisis

The result of the referendum on the prohibition of wearing an Islamic niqab or full-face veil in Switzerland, obscured an interesting piece of news about another federal plebiscite in this country which has gone almost completely unnoticed: The canton of Zurich voted on Sunday to state nationalities in police reports.

As reported in Swiss daily 20 Minutes, this vote was in fact a counter-proposal from the Swiss government to an initiative from the Swiss People’s Party (SVP) to include migration background.

The police in the canton have now been obliged to state the origin of the alleged perpetrators. Previously, this had been common practice in the German-speaking canton, which has a population of one and a half million, until a city council on the “Alternative List” banned the Zurich city police from doing so in 2017, following pressure from several left-wing parties.

The arguments of the supporters of the decision at the time and today’s opponents of the voting initiative were: The naming of nationalities stirs up racism and prejudice and divides society. The Zurich voters could not be convinced however, and instead they wanted clarity, transparency and information. After all, in Switzerland criminal suspects without a Swiss passport are clearly overrepresented in relation to their proportion of the population.

The majority of inmates in Swiss prisons are foreign nationals, according to official data. Of the 7 000 people imprisoned in Switzerland in January 2020, 70 percent were of foreign nationality.

More than 55 percent voted in favour of the proposal on Sunday according to the authorities. Only 44 percent approved the proposal by the Swiss People’s Party to include a mention of a possible immigration background, falling short of a necessary majority.

Zurich is the third of 26 Swiss cantons to introduce a special law over the past decade since cantons follow non-binding recommendations by the country’s police commanders approved in 2010 to mention the nationality of a suspect and victims as a rule besides their respective age. Exceptions are sometimes allowed for privacy reasons while information about a possible immigration background is only disclosed on request.

It is similar in Germany. In relation to serious violent and sexual crimes, foreigners are more often suspected of being the perpetrators than Germans. In most federal states, however, the nationality is not mentioned in the police reports. An investigation from the beginning of February showed: Only in Saxony and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania is the nationality of suspects generally stated.

The negative consequences of the practice in the other federal states can be seen immediately after almost every publicly discussed crime: There is wild speculation on social networks as to where the alleged perpetrator comes from. “That was definitely a foreigner again,” most say, or: “Only Germans do that.” It is almost mandatory for journalists to ask the responsible police officer or to obtain the information somehow and eventually the origin of the suspect is made public.

This approach shows that there is a public interest in the nationality of suspects. The general mention of this information would also put an end to speculation. When criminologists speak of “pseudo-transparency” because there is usually no connection between the nationality of a suspect and his act, this may be true from a criminological point of view, but it does not change the desire of many Germans to know more than just the gender and age of a suspect. Also because the proportion of foreigners in Germany continues to grow.

However, in addition to nationality, another factor could be equally relevant. The Swiss People’s Party (SVP) in Zurich had tried (unsuccessfully) to make a possible migration background mandatory public knowledge through the police statement in addition to the nationality. “Only when you know the background are you in a position to correctly judge a situation”, SVP’s Zurich branch said on its website.

In Germany, the member of the Bundestag and former police chief commissioner Martin Hess (AfD) advocates precisely this. “Citizens across Germany must be informed about the nationality and migration background of suspects. This is the only way they can draw the right conclusions in the elections and force the politicians to make necessary changes to their course,” he urged, speaking to the Berlin weekly Junge Freiheit.

“Anyone who is against the naming of nationality in police reports only wants to cover up the fact that the policy of open borders makes our country much more insecure.” This contradicts the idea of ​​the democratic public, he said.

Six months after a murderous attack on a man in Stolberg, pleadings and presumably the verdict are scheduled for Wednesday (9 a.m.) in the trial at the Aachen Regional Court.

A 21-year-old German with Iraqi roots is accused of being the alleged knifeman. He allegedly attacked his victim, who is of Turkish origin, because his family was said to be on a poster of the AfD party for the local elections.

The accused is said to have posted the photo on social media with the words ” denier of God”. He is classified as a dangerous person by the State Criminal Police Office.

The knife attack is said to have been aimed at a relative of the person shown on the AfD poster. The accused allegedly shouted “Allahu akbar” (“God is great”). The call is also used by the terrorist militia Islamic State (IS). He is also alleged to have posted an IS symbol on the internet. The prosecution is being brought by the General Public Prosecutor’s Office in Düsseldorf.The 21-year-old is accused of two knife attacks. As he was partly still under 21 years of age, he is being tried in a juvenile court. He is in custody.

“We Chechens have our own customs and want to avoid mixed marriages,” Mubarik A. did not mince his words in the courtroom of the Vienna Criminal Court on Wednesday.

Since the summer of 2020, he and four other self-appointed guardians of public morals between the ages of 19 and 40 are alleged to have organised themselves in secret Telegram groups. Users were encouraged to report Instagram pictures of Chechen girls who were dating non-Chechens or posing in non-traditional clothing. Then the addresses of the victims were researched and unannounced visits were planned (“Why doesn’t someone break all her teeth out?). More than 100 women in Vienna and Linz are said to have been “lectured” by the guardians of public morals and in some cases massively intimidated. In Vienna there were several brutal beatings.

Chat transcripts in the possession of the public prosecutor’s office show the full ruthlessness of the alleged perpetrators: “These girls are a disgrace to our nation. They bring diseases and ruin our reputation,” it says, for example – “We have to go out and beat them properly some day. Neither the police nor anyone else would dare to tell us anything,” one of the accused wrote cockily. He was wrong: undercover investigators got to the bottom of the Chechens’ criminal machinations. Arrests against the administrators, who hid behind sounding aliases like “King of the Night”, “Santa Claus” or “Heinrich Himmler”, followed. Lots of gas and alarm guns were found in their flats. Soon after, the indictment was brought. The serious charge: establishing a criminal organisation.

According to the public prosecutor on Wednesday, all the prerequisites for the so-called “mafia paragraph” were fulfilled: calls for severe coercion, threats to destroy one’s social standing in the community, threats of death, as well as direct violence such as attacking and beating up victims. A manifesto documents the perfidious code of the five chat administrators: “If we find a person whose behaviour and appearance does not correspond to our customs, then we will intervene,” it says.The main defendant Shaid N., whom lawyer Alexander Philipp advocated, confessed comprehensively.Florian Kreiner’s client Mubarik A. (19) surprisingly pleaded not guilty. “He was never an administrator of one of the groups in question, but became a victim of the guardians of public morals himself when a picture of him smoking shisha appeared in the chats.There was no verdict to be given on Wednesday, further witnesses will be summoned.
