Germany: Syrian stabs woman to death

Deadly knife attack on a 36-year-old woman in her apartment in Rastatt!

According to the police, her Syrian husband of the same age injured her so badly with a knife in an argument on Sunday morning that she died, according to the Baden-Baden public prosecutor’s office and the Offenburg police. Another man in the apartment was also seriously injured by the attacker. After the attack, the 36-year-old suspect left the apartment. Roommates called the police. In the morning, he was temporarily arrested by the police at Rastatt train station.

The criminal investigation department is investigating a suspected homicide. Further backgrounds are still unclear. Apparently, the couple had already had an argument over the weekend.

Antiracism: A new religion

By Robert Dimuro

A major theme in 2020 is the supposed killing of Black Americans on a disproportionate scale by law enforcement across the nation. The death of George Floyd at the hands (or knee) of Derek Chauvin rekindled the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, leaving its mark not only on city streets but also in media and entertainment. In relatively short order, our culture has largely embraced, or at least tolerated, a set of ideas that is based on a false premise and tactics that are inspired by a Marxist revolutionary philosophy.

The details and origins of BLM are easily discoverable online and on its ownwebsite, so I won’t get into them here. Rather, what I want to emphasize is our amazing ability as a nation to pretend and mentally train ourselves to view BLM, including its founding claims and tactics, as completely uncontroversial. This has become such a big echo chamber that our major professional sports leagues have all endorsed the movement, displaying BLM messaging and encouraging athletes to engage in activism during games. It’s as if BLM is as apolitical and unifying as the phrases “support our troops,” or “we fight against breast cancer.”

Clearly, this is not the case. However, the culture of radical antiracism has silenced dissent so thoroughly that any attempt to criticize it is instantly perceived as racist. In fact, this is textbook antiracist strategy — control or define the language, narrative, culture, and intensity surrounding an issue so as to take center stage and indoctrinate the vast majority of the population into accepting its creed.  This strategy targets those who normally wouldn’t endorse an antiracist crusade against White people and the police but are subliminally trained into obedience and implicitly supporting its agenda over time. This is exactly how dictators — even those who are unpopular — brainwash their subjects into accepting their agendas, which is contrary to the American principles of free expression and the rational exchange of ideas.

Unfortunately, the latter are only American principles in spirit. In reality, America has increasingly fallen victim to a toxic brand of politics that Nick Srnicek and Alex Williams, in their 2015 monograph Inventing the Future, coined as “folk politics,” which has been on the rise since the 1960s and includes the latest strains of antiracism that now plague our discourse. Folk politics represents a shift away from the politics of policy, planning, and consensus to the politics of identity, victimhood, and oppression.

This strain of politics is also “folk” in its religiosity, and this explains how today’s antiracists, whom linguist John McWhorter calls “third-wave” antiracists, seem to worship their ideology. According to McWhorter, “Third-wave antiracism is a profoundly religious movement in everything but terminology. The idea that Whites are permanently stained by their White privilege, gaining moral absolution only by eternally attesting to it, is the third wave’s version of original sin. The idea of a someday when America will ‘come to terms with race’ is as vaguely specified a guidepost as Judgment Day.”

If the fight against third-wave antiracism is a fight against the de facto establishment of a new religion, I fear that it will be very difficult to stamp out. When movements maintain their following despite being in contradiction to the facts, data, and evidence at hand, they have a very good chance of standing the test of time.

Majority of ‘refugee’ workers in Germany are elderly women

The majority of “refugee” workers in Germany are women a study by the Social Science Institute of the Evangelical Church showed. And it was primarily those over 70 who provided concrete help in the form of German lessons or visits to the authorities.

The migrant aid workers have an above-average level of education and assess their own economic situation as largely positive. According to the representative survey, they also have more confidence in democracy and politically tend towards the CDU, SPD or the Greens.

However, those who advocate limited immigration are also well educated and have a good economic situation according to their own statements, project manager Maria Sinnemann told the epd news agency, during the presentation of the first results of the study “Civil Society Engagement”.

This means that it is not the losers of society who are committed against mass immigration. In addition, it is not a purely East German phenomenon either.

In contrast, the two groups differ in terms of religious affiliation and the type of engagement. While supporters of migrants are more religious and get involved in church parishes or non-profit associations, while immigration opponents tended to be politically active and voted for the AfD or the Union parties.

Majority of Germans Fear Taking Migrants from Greece Will Trigger New Migrant Wave

A majority of Germans have expressed concern that the German government taking in large numbers of migrants from Greece after the Moria migrant camp fire could trigger a new wave of migration.

The German government, under Chancellor Angela Merkel, pledged to take in 1,500 migrants following the Moria fire, seemingly started by migrant arsonists, that left around 13,000 of them homeless on the island of Lesbos.

According to a poll released this week by German broadcaster ZDF, 62 per cent of Germans think that if the government takes a large portion of migrants from Moria it could lead to a significant wave of mass migration into Europe.

Across the political spectrum, only a majority of supporters of the far-left Green party did not believe that letting in migrants from Moria would trigger a large movement of migrants to Europe.

Germans are largely split on whether or not the country should take in a large proportion of migrants from Moria, with 43 per cent saying Germany should take in the migrants and 46 per cent saying Germany should only take them if other EU countries also take a share.

The Moria migrant camp fire has been attributed to arson by the Greek authorities, motivated by the fact there the Moria camp was placed under coronavirus lockdown measures.

Five migrants, all Afghans and two of them supposedly underage, were later arrested in connection with the fire. Greek media also published video footage allegedly showing migrants lighting and spreading fires at the camp as well.

The polling does not appear to explore whether or not taking in migrants from Greece as a result of the fire might encourage more acts of arson in other camps.

Italy: “The priest died like a dog, that was right,” declared Tunisian migrant Mahmoudi Ridha after he stabbed priest to death

“The priest died like a dog, that was right,” declared Tunisian migrant Mahmoudi Ridha after he repeatedly stabbed 51-year-old priest Roberto Malgesini in Como, northern Italy. He showed absolutely no regret for his terrible deed.

The illegal immigrant was one of the many who had benefitted from Malgesini’s generosity. The priest had been handing out meals to migrants in the city center when Ridha attacked him, stabbing him several times.

The assailant had no history of mental illness, and police tests revealed no “certified psychological problems”. Despite this, the diocese of Como, the Italian Episcopal Conference (CEI), Caritas, and Italy’s mainstream media unanimously diagnosed the killer as “mentally ill”.

Roberto Bernasconi, president of the Como section of pro-migrant charity Caritas, blamed the murder on the anti-migrant “climate of hatred and intolerance that is fomented in the city”.

The pro-migrant priest made headlines last year after the Como municipality fined him for supporting migrant squatters that had taken over in the St. Francis church.

The murderer, from Tunisia, has repeatedly violated immigration law and has been imprisoned on several occasions. Facing yet another deportation order, the illegal migrant lodged an appeal that was to be heard on the day of the murder.

The prosecutor’s office said the motive was linked to the fear of repatriation. “Malgesini was convinced that a plot was underway to repatriate him to Tunisia and that the priest was involved in that plot.”
