Recalling a scene from the famous 11th-century poem “The Song of Roland”, in which Christians in Spain threatened Muslims “to choose between baptism or death,” Pope Francis said: “We must beware of fundamentalist groups; each (religion) has their own. Fundamentalism is a plague and all religions have some fundamentalist first cousin”.And then, in the declaration on “human brotherhood” signed in Abu Dhabi, the Pope and the Imam of Al Azhar Al Tayeeb spoke of religious freedom and women’s rights. Beautiful words. They called it “a word of peace”.

Where is the word of Islam and the Imam on the conversion of Silvia Romano, the Italian girl we now know was forcefully converted to Islam after being held for18 months after her kidnapping in Somalia? Where are the imams who are always so good at talking to the newspapers?

The Pope condemned the conversions of Muslims as told in the “Chanson de Roland”. A thousand years ago. Very useful. Where are the high dignitaries of the Islamic world who are willing to nullify Silvia Romano’s conversion and free her from the religious yoke imposed on her under captivity?

Where is the Pope?

When we will open our eyes, while we still have them, on the need for some moral equivalency? Today, Christians are killed if they do not convert to Islam and Muslims who convert to Christianity are massacred. Meanwhile, in Europe mosques proliferate and churches in the Islamic world are burned to the ground.

Islamic fundamentalists kidnapped an Italian, Christian and Western girl who went to Africa to help people, they held her for a year and a half under chains, they released her after her conversion to Islam and after she suffered psychological as well as physical brutalization. Then there was the payment of a large ransom through the mediation of Islamic emirates (Qatar and Turkey) which have been working for Europe’s submission for years.

What a great success for the enemies of civilization who also enjoy the crazy applause on the media of important figures in Italy, including the Church to which the girl at least nominally belonged.

Many, most, do not understand or do not want to understand that the clamor about the Silvia Romano’s case is that of a weak and dying civilization.

German MPs voted for a bill by the Federal Council introducing an additional passage into the criminal code which means defaming the EU flag and anthem will be punishable. Until now, fines or imprisonment could only be imposed if state symbols of the Federal Republic of Germany were disfigured or abused.

Violations of the new regulation can – in line with the existing prohibitions – be punished with a custodial sentence of up to three years or a fine.

The regulation also includes destroying, damaging or defacing the EU flag and attempts to do so.If other flags are burned, for example during demonstrations, the penalty requirement that Germany maintains mutual relations with the other state and that the Federal Government must have authorized criminal prosecution does not apply.

Federal Justice Minister Christine Lambrecht (SPD) said: “The burning of flags in public has nothing to do with peaceful protest.

“It stirs up hate, anger and aggression and hurts the feelings of many people.”

The SPD had spoken out in favour of protecting the Israeli flag after it was set alight at a demonstration in Berlin in 2017.

With the decision to extend the law there is now uniform criminal protection for foreign flags and the symbols of the European Union.

The right-wing anti-EU Alternative for Germany (AfD) party opposed the new punitive provision on the EU symbols.

In an amendment, which was rejected by a large majority, they spoke of “excessive interference with freedom of expression and art”.

The move comes at a time of heightened tension within the bloc and a marked rise in anti-German sentiment as member states failed to get to grips with a united stance to tackle the coronavirus crisis.

Italy, which still bitterly resents its treatment by Brussels at the height of the Mediterannean migrant crisis, once again felt it was left to deal with an emergency on its own.

Opinion polls in the country showed record levels of dissatisfaction with the EU and even long-standing supporters of Brussels openly questioned its effectiveness in the face of a major international crisis such as the coronavirus pandemic.

Berlin caused further ourtrage thoughout the bloc when it ruled against the European Central Bank on the issue of financial aid for EU member states hardest hit by COVID-19.

On the 23rd of May the “breaking of the fast” of Islam is coming, a festivity at the end of Lent, similar to Easter Sunday for Christians. Let us remember: At Easter the Austrians were left in the belief by the Black/Green government that social gatherings, even if only in the family circle, were forbidden. Right on time at the beginning of the Muslim Ramadan, Health Minister Rudolf Anschober (Greens) declared all this to be a “misunderstanding” via a spokeswoman; private meetings were “of course not subject to any ban”. What a nice gift to the Muslims who immigrated to Austria! Now the government is changing its regulations just in time: Ten days before the end of Muslim Lent, before extended families and clans celebrate, the government is issuing an “amendment to the Covid-19 relaxation order”. Among other things, it says:

The obligation to wear a mechanical protective device covering the mouth and nose area and the obligation to maintain a distance shall not apply if this requires the performance of religious acts by recognised churches and religious communities and religious denominations.

Former Red/Black governments, the current Black/Green government and the mainstream media demand and promote immigration, while denying its actual existence and playing down its effects. According to them, there is no Islamisation at all, it only exists in the minds of “right-wing extremists”. Chancellor Sebastian Kurz ( Austrian People’s Party ÖVP) stated in 2015 that Islam is part of Austria. In doing so, he obviously admitted that Austria is transforming itself into an Oriental country. His Black/Green government supports this to the utmost with the current regulation: it adapts Austria’s laws to Oriental customs. If that is not a form of Islamization, then what is?

The restrictions caused by the coronavirus pandemic will cause an €81.5 billion shortfall in this year’s central budget revenues, a bigger decline than the one suffered during the 2008-2009 global financial and economic crisis, German Finance Minister Olaf Scholz said on Thursday. His ministry revised the country’s tax revenue appraisal, and the figure is 10 percent lower than the original one made before the pandemic.

Scholz said that last November, the government had forecast 2020 tax income for all levels of government — federal, regional and municipal — at €816.4 billion. This has now been revised down by €98.6bn to €717.8 billion. This compares to last year’s tax revenue of €799.3 billion.

Estimates for tax revenues over the next few years have also been revised downwards — by €52.7 billion in 2021, €59.1 billion in 2022, €53.8 billion in 2023, and €51.7 billion in 2024. The tax estimate forms the basis for all negotiations over Germany’s budget.

The total revisions between 2020 and 2024 amount to a €315.9 billion shortfall — larger than the decline in expectations of tax revenue after the 2008-2009 global financial crisis.

The crisis has already undermined the German government’s commitment to a balanced budget. After six years in the black, now the government is borrowing €156 billion to finance rescue packages and cover the expected shortfall in tax revenue.

Germany — Europe’s biggest economy — is offering a total of more than €1 trillion in aid via various packages, which include money to tide over small companies and individual entrepreneurs through virus-related closures and to pump capital into bigger companies where needed.

Germany began loosening coronavirus restrictions on April 20, about a month after they were introduced, and the easing has gathered pace over the past week. Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Wednesday that “as of today, no increases in levies or taxes are planned”, but the subtext of the statement was that she cannot promise the same for the months to come.

As an inquiry by the AfD Group brought to light, a frightening incident occurred at the Astrid Lindgren primary school in Blankenfelde-Mahlow in March this year. According to classmates, a “teacher” with Syrian nationality from the Refugee Teachers Programme grabbed a pupil in the 6th grade by the neck and pressed him against the blackboard. The reason for this is said to have been that the student allegedly did not follow a command.The education policy spokesman of the parliamentary group, Dennis Hohloch, makes it clear: “It is completely incomprehensible that a Syrian man without a teaching qualification can take over the supervision of school children in Brandenburg alone. The Refugee Teacher Program must be stopped immediately. It has not yet produced any demonstrable benefit in combating the shortage of teachers. In addition, the incident should have been reported immediately by the director to the Brandenburg state education authority. However, she did not do so, thereby clearly committing a breach of duty.”Birgit Bessin, spokeswoman for family policy, adds: “The mistreatment of charges as well as the obstruction of the investigation must not be tolerated.A school director who acts in this way has no place in this function. Such an offence cannot remain without consequences. Parents and students must be able to trust in the protection of their children in the care of the teacher. Anyone who commits an offence against children has no place in the school system.

The populist Swiss People’s Party, the largest party in country’s lawmaking body, has slammed Left-wing strongholds for exacerbating the Wuhan coronavirus crisis by harboring illegal migrants and rejected asylum seekers against federal law.

In a press release published earlier in week, the party not only called for the expulsion of failed asylum seekers and illegal immigrants, but blasted Geneva for contributing to the spread of the Wuhan coronavirus by harboring the migrants.

“In Geneva, there is one case of COVID-19 per 100 inhabitants,” the press release reads. “This makes the canton most affected by the pandemic of all cantons.”

“Illegal migrants, such as tens of thousands tolerated by Geneva in violation of federal law, appear to be among the pandemic drivers – with devastating consequences for the whole country: Because of the many coronavirus cases, all people in Switzerland had to endure massive state intervention and now have to pay the resulting horrendous costs.”

The SVP, citing a survey carried out by the Geneva University hospital, says that infection rates among illegal immigrants is much higher than those seen in the native Swiss population. Because many of illegal migrants and asylum seekers cannot afford testing and do not adhere to the quarantine measures, they end spreading the virus far and wide, the populist party argues.

In order to limit the further spread of the Wuhan virus in the country, the party has called on federal government to abandon its “laissez-faire approach” to illegal migration, and for “cantons and cities that do not enforce federal law on migration must be held accountable.” Lastly, the Right-wing party demands that illegal migrants must be “consistently deported and new arrivals without visas or residence permits must be consistently turned away at the border”.

At present, there are between 90,000 and 250,000 illegal migrants living in the small alpine nation.
