Last week, a man was given a suspended sentence by the Saarbrücken Regional Court. Attalah A., now 28, worked on a temporary basis at a snack bar on Saarbrücken’s Rathausplatz square in 2017. One night in June, the then 14-year-old victim came into the shop and wanted to use the toilet. While the girl went to the toilet, the Syrian locked the shop and hindered the girl from leaving.

He went to the kitchen with her, allegedly to give her something. There he took off some of his clothes and asked the 14-year-old to perform sexual acts. Out of fear, she did as she was told. During the offence, the accused also touched the minor underneath her clothes and left genetic traces. Security was increased for the trial at the juvenile court. The defence lawyer of the 28-year-old initially provided a different version of events for her client.

According to this, everything had happened consensually. A version that the presiding judge, Thomas Emanuel, could not believe. Among other things, video recordings from the surveillance camera cast doubt on the accused’s version of events, the judge said. The victim had already suffered severely psychologically before the crime due to his private life circumstances. Testifying in court would therefore have meant an extremely high burden for the teenager.

A sister and her mother appeared in court in her place. The accused agreed with them to pay 7,500 euros in compensation for pain and suffering. In addition, the 28-year-old retracted his fabricated version of the crime and, after some hesitation, made a far-reaching confession in court. This was the only reason why the court finally granted a suspended sentence with a period of probation lasting two years.

The number of violent acts committed by far-left extremists in 2020 skyrocketed compared to the previous year, according to data held by Germany’s Federal Ministry of the Interior (BMI).

The Federal Interior Ministry (BMI) released the data following a request from Linda Teuteberg, a member of the Bundestag for the Free Democratic Party (FDP), a classically liberal party focused mainly on promoting economic liberalism, privatization, and free markets. According to the statistics, 1,359 violent crimes committed by far-left extremists were recorded last year, 29 percent more than were seen in 2019 (1,052), German weekly magazine Junge Freiheit reports.

Documents released by the BMI also revealed that 9,973 far-left extremist crimes were identified and recorded last year, just over the 9,849 that were registered in the previous year.  

“In addition to the dynamic development of right-wing extremism and Islamism, the tendency in left-wing extremism to increasingly violent acts is also worrying. There is no ethical superiority of any variant of violent extremism and any trivialization of criminal activity as activism is prohibited,” Teuteberg told the German newspaper Die Welt.

The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) noted that an analysis carried out by the secret service in 2020 indicated that a clear trend toward radicalization in the far-left extremist scene had been observed. The same analysis, which was released last year, cautioned against the “emergence of terrorist structures within far-left extremist scene”.

“Serious physical injuries to the victims up to possible death are accepted approvingly,” the analysis reads.

Planned actions by left-wing extremist groups span from “mass militancy” to “clandestine small group actions”, while goals have shifted “more and more often from an institutional level to a personal level”. Previous cases have shown that victims are increasingly tracked down”‘specifically” and are attacked in their own homes or “personal spaces of refuge”.

The Office for the Protection of the Constitution in Saxony has noted that the problem of violent left-wing extremism in the city of Leipzig is particularly concerning.

“The violence-oriented left-wing extremist scene is reaching a new level of escalation due to the criminal and violent acts it has committed,” the BfV Saxony reported.

Last November, a 25-year-old student named Lina E., who also happens to be a prolific far-left extremist in Leipzig, was arrested at her apartment in Connewitz. Immediately upon her arrest, she was flown by officers in a helicopter to Karlsruhe, where the judge overseeing her case issued the arrest warrant.

The 25-year-old student is accused of membership in a criminal organization, dangerous communal bodily harm, particularly serious breach of the public peace, including serious trespassing, robbery, property damage, and forgery of documents. 

Germany has not seen federal authorities go in and arrest prominent left-wing extremist figures since the days of the Red Army Faction (RAF) – a far-left militant extremist organization which engaged in bombings, kidnappings, bank robberies, and assassinations mainly in the 1970s.

Investigators consider Lina E. to be a member of a left-wing extremist criminal organization that rejects the “existing democratic constitutional state”.

Earlier this month, an arson attack was carried out against the state registration authority in Braunschweig, Lower Saxony. Those investigating the case presume that the perpetrators have a left-wing extremist background.

Germany: Acts of violence from left-wing extremists skyrocketed in 2020

My post on the infiltration of the political parties in Germany by Turkish right-wing radicals and Islamists allegedly violates community standards. With this, Facebook is clearly taking sides with Islamists.

The following is the wording of the post in question:

German government reports influence of Turkish right-wing extremists and Islamists on political parties – activities mainly in local politics

According to the federal government, Turkish right-wing extremists are trying to influence public and political opinion in Germany.

This is stated in the response to a parliamentary question of the Free Democratic Party (FDP), quoted by the newspaper “Die Welt”. Particularly in local politics, parts of the Turkish right-wing extremist scene are trying to occupy established intercultural dialogue formats, it says. According to the report, the federal government has knowledge about the candidacy of such persons in local and integration council elections.In November, the Bundestag had called for a ban on ” Grey Wolves” to be considered. However, according to media reports, experts currently consider the legal hurdles to be too high.Furthermore, according to the newspaper “Die Welt”, the German government classifies the Foundation for Political, Economic and Social Research ( SETA ) as part of the Turkish ruling party AKP. SETA has run an agency in Berlin since 2017. The Milli Görüs movement also tries to function as a contact for politics and society. Via the “Islamrat für die Bundesrepublik Deutschland” (Islam Council for the Federal Republic of Germany), which it dominates, it is indirectly represented in the German Islam Conference.

Several mainstream German politicians have sharply criticized the Federal Government’s integration commission and its recently presented final report. “The expert commission not only deliberately ignored its task, but instead took a relatively one-sided position on general integration-political issues without being asked to do so,” a CDU politician Christoph de Vries told a German daily.

The task of the commission was to “show how much immigration Germany can sustain under which framework conditions with a view to integration”, explained the member of the Bundestag to daily Die Welt. The starting point for this was the Federal Government’s definition of a “target corridor” of up to 220 000 immigrants per year.

The expert commission for integration includes 25 members under the leadership of the integration officer Annette Widmann-Mauz (CDU). It presented its final report recently in which the main recommendation was to stop using the term “migration background”. Instead, the panel wants everyone to speak of “immigrants and their (direct) descendants” in future.

“Verbal acrobatics about migration terms instead of a substantial discussion of integration deficits helps neither the migrants nor the majority society”, complained de Vries. Furthermore, the commission described integration as “a task of the state and society at large” and “not as a responsibility of migrants”.

Integration deficits are “largely ignored and integration ability is rejected as a category, although there are scientifically recognized indicators such as labour force participation, educational qualifications or delinquency” to measure the success of integration the CDU member complained.

Another member of Angela Merkel’s CDU, Christoph Bernstiel also accused the commission of having “completely missed” its actual goal. The paper reads “in many places like minutes from an academic debating club” that “focuses on denouncing terms”. The question “whether the term migration background is discriminatory” is of secondary importance. His party colleague Marian Wendt made a similar statement: “Instead of pointing out problems and suggested solutions, the report of the expert committee prefers to deal with terminology”.

The criticism of integration researcher Ruud Koopmans also goes in the same direction: “Unfortunately, the integration commission follows the academic fashion of discussing terminology rather than the underlying phenomena,” he told Die Welt. “The belief that new words can create a new reality is predominant. Any new term for a migration background would be perceived as stigmatizing again after five years.”

This kind of appalling arrogance – this time from a Left politician – has also struck ordinary voters. While many citizens are fighting for their livelihoods because of the harsh Corona measures, Thuringia’s Prime Minister Bodo Ramelow played games on his cell phone during a Corona online conference in which the lockdown extension was debated, which has caused fierce criticism nationwide. The pandemic has quite literally been a matter of life and death, in which the livelihoods of millions and perhaps the future of an entire generation of students are at stake.

The state politician openly boasted on social media that he was “up to level ten” of Candy Crush during the Corona summit of state leaders and the Chancellor. Candy Crush is a puzzle game that is played on smartphones.

Meanwhile, the number of left-wing extremist acts of violence has risen sharply in the past year. The authorities registered 1 359 corresponding violent crimes, as reported by Welt am Sonntag, citing a response from the federal government to a request from FDP member of the Bundestag, Linda Teuteberg. This corresponds to an increase of 29 percent compared to 2019. At that time, 1 052 acts of violence were recorded. According to the Federal Ministry of the Interior, a total of 9 973 left-wing extremist crimes were identified in 2020. The number is thus roughly on a par with the previous year.

Teuteberg told the newspaper that “the tendency in left-wing extremism to increasingly violent acts is also worrying – there is no ethical superiority of any variant of violent extremism and any trivialization of criminal activity as activism should be forbidden”.

Last year, the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution observed a radicalization of the left-wing extremist scene and warned against the “emergence of terrorist structures in left-wing extremism”. “Serious physical injuries to the victims up to possible death are accepted approvingly,” it said in an internal analysis.

The Office for the Protection of the Constitution in Saxony came to the same conclusion: In Leipzig in particular, “the violence-oriented left-wing extremist scene is reaching a new level of escalation through the criminal and violent acts it has committed”.

Lower Saxony’s police chief Axel Brockmann warned of a qualitative and quantitative increase in left-wing extremist violence .

And while leftists debate terminology and play games during debates, politicians of the AfD are targeted by violent left-wing extremists. The latest victim is Marie-Thérèse Kaiser from the AfD Rotenburg. Suspected left-wing extremist perpetrators vandalized the house in which she lives and a car parked in front of it.

A suspected attack on the car of a Saxon AfD politician is currently being investatigated by the State Criminal Police Office (LKA) Saxony. The reason for this are several missing and loosened wheel nuts on the car of the AfD district chairman of North Saxony and Bundestag candidate, René Bochmann, the AfD announced last week. According to the Saxon AfD, Bochmann noticed while driving that the steering wheel was moving uncontrollably. He was only barely able to prevent a collision with an older passerby.

According to the AfD, the perpetrators are from the left-wing extremist spectrum. Jörg Urban, the AfD state chairman in Saxony, reacted in horror: “This cowardly attack leaves me speechless. Here the death of a politician and other bystanders was accepted approvingly! Apparently some opponents of the AfD have long since abandoned a democratic basic order.”

The attack continues a long series of crimes against members and supporters of the AfD. People are regularly assaulted and sometimes seriously injured. Election posters for the AfD are always the target of widespread vandalism and AfD information stands have been destroyed and party’s electoral activists have been beaten and kicked.
