I did question it a long time. I know that the media play down the origin of offenders in many cases in Germany. I was mostly guessing its the media that does it. But the fish start to smell from the heat. So its actual politics that gave orders to play down the truth with the intention not to scare the public and a very loved argument of the left - not to support the wrong people with facts.
The state of NRW and I guess it count for almost all states in Germany are well aware what's the origin of the offender. The cologne and other attacks are not new. Or at least the offenders are not new. We Germans get just a drop of the big ocean of crime. Because politics hide it. All political parties did agree to not release the origin of offender. So there was not a direct law but an unspoken one. Police start to not mention the origin of offenders in their reports. So the Media get those censored press releases. To often I suspect the media to hide it but it comes from a way higher.
Police did not name it because if you the police or the single police man get called racist. Also he has to fear of his career. So an unspoken law was out there not to call names.
I would not direct mind when they just did fight the crime. But not even this they did. They ignored it and then even censor the truth from the public. Now it blows all up because the new years attacks all over Germany had been to big. Normal when you notice something on your screen you keep an eye on it and when seems like a problem that grows you face it. Because when it's to big then fighting it get a way harder. Still what do politics? Ignore it and call everyone that name it a racist. Its a very crazy mindset.
Quote:Seit 1980 sitzt der Herr mit dem grauen Bärtchen im Düsseldorfer Landtag. Lothar Hegemann, CDU, ist der dienstälteste Volksvertreter in Nordrhein-Westfalen. Nennt er etwas historisch, hat das Gewicht. Am Montag debattierte der Innenausschuss des Landtags über die Kölner Silvesternacht – für Hegemann eine Zäsur: "Zum ersten Mal seit Jahren" hätten die Abgeordneten "offen über Ausländerkriminalität reden können, ohne gleich als rechts beschimpft zu werden"
Klar wie selten wird in NRW über Zuwandererkriminalität gesprochen – als wäre da etwas zu kompensieren. Ist es auch. Schon 2014 wussten der Innenminister, sein Staatssekretär und Innenpolitiker aller Fraktionen, dass es unter Flüchtlingen eine Problemgruppe gab: Nordafrikaner, die massiv klauten, tranken, Frauen belästigten und Gewalt verübten. Doch dieses Wissen wurde überaus diskret behandelt, von allen Seiten.
Die Schweigekultur hat in NRW Tradition, so sehen es manche. Über Jahre wurde von Politik und Polizei über ausländische Straftäter deutlich leiser gesprochen als über deutsche, klagen CDU-Innenpolitiker wie eben Hegemann oder Gregor Golland. Seit Köln scheint das Schweigen passé. Im einwohnerstärksten Bundesland vollzieht sich ein politischer Klimawandel: mehr von dem Wagen, was vorher politische Inkorrektheit hieß wagen.
Als vor Jahren CDU-Mann Golland warnte, die Politik müsse die "Antänzer" unter die Lupe nehmen, nordafrikanische Banden, die ihre Opfer ablenkten und ausraubten, lachten einige von SPD, Grünen und Piraten noch Tränen über eine so skurrile Idee. Im Plenum forderten sie, die CDUler sollten die angeblichen Tricks der Antänzer mal vortanzen.
Aufschlussreich war eine Sitzung des Innenausschusses im Oktober 2014. Damals sprach der Ausschuss ein einziges Mal breit über die Problemgruppe junger Nordafrikaner – aber wie über ein Staatsgeheimnis. Von Innenminister Jäger über dessen Staatssekretär Bernhard Nebe bis zu Innenpolitikern von CDU, FDP und Grünen kam man überein, dass es in NRW tatsächlich eine gefährliche Gruppe nordafrikanischer Asylbewerber gebe, die exzessiv trinke, Bürger angreife, Geschäfte ausraube.
Und die Polizei? Seit 2008 gilt ein Erlass, der sie mahnt, die Nationalität von Tätern und Tatverdächtigen nur ganz zart zu benennen: "keine Stigmatisierungen, Kategorisierungen oder pauschalen Bezeichnungen für Menschen". "Auf die Zugehörigkeit zu einer Minderheit" werde "in der Berichterstattung nur hingewiesen, wenn sie für das Verständnis des Sachverhalts oder für die Herstellung eines sachlichen Bezugs zwingend erforderlich ist". Medienauskünfte dürften "auf Beteiligung nationaler Minderheiten" nur hinweisen, "wenn im Einzelfall ein überwiegendes Informationsinteresse oder Fahndungsinteresse" bestehe. Was das bewirkte, schildert Sebastian Fiedler, Landeschef des Bundes deutscher Kriminalbeamter: "Um auf der sicheren Seite zu stehen, erwähnten die meisten Polizisten die Nationalität nicht deutscher Täter von da an überhaupt nicht mehr."
The article says that just a few politicians talked about the problem with migrant crimes. They get laugh at and the issue was never on a big agenda. It was just ignored over years.
Also that there had be a law that police should play down the origin of offender what lead to not mention it at all.
What worries me even more that this idea was accept by ALL political parties. I mean now Merkel and her normal more conservative CDU is a refugee welcome slave, so there is no political party left that keep up non Anti German destructive values. Only the AfD, a new political party. Its called Alternative for Germany. Still the party has many internal struggles but are the only one that stand against this invasion. Still it takes till 2017. Or something radical happen in 2016, like I said the CSU can break up Merkels coalition of the willing.
Now we are making some good reasoning. It's foolish to assume this migration is some sort of spontaneous and isolated result. There are some previous foreign policy decisions which facilitate the occurence of such migration.
Which makes one wonder, rightfully, about the coincidental (or not) nature of it all.
There's of course no coincidence. These huge migrations from Africa (or the Muslim middle-east) would not have happened with a (true) conservative president in power across the pond...
Quote:Chancellor Angela Merkel's migrant troubles have reignited in the new year but the German leader is sticking to her guns, insisting her country will manage the challenge and that diplomacy can bring solutions.
Germany registered nearly 1.1 million asylum-seekers last year, and 2,000 to 3,000 are still arriving daily even in mid-winter.
A surge of robberies and sexual assaults on New Year's Eve in Cologne — and the fact that some of the suspects were asylum-seekers — have highlighted the difficulty of integrating so many newcomers. With pressure mounting for the government to manage the influx, Merkel's Bavarian allies are once again pushing for a cap on asylum-seekers.
Public opinion toward refugees has been souring for months in Germany, although polls suggest political support for Merkel's conservatives is down only slightly. While Germany doesn't hold a national election until late 2017, smaller votes this year — starting with three state elections in March — will offer a test of the mood.
"The events of New Year's Eve have again shone a spotlight on the challenges we face, made them clear from a new side we had not viewed so far," Merkel acknowledged. Within days, her government proposed legislation to make it easier to deport criminal foreigners.
On the refugee influx itself, however, Merkel is standing firm — sticking to her much-criticized mantra that "we will manage it."
The woman chosen as Time's person of the year insists that the solution is not to unilaterally close borders, but to work with reluctant European partners, Turkey and others to secure Europe's frontiers and share the burden of hosting refugees. That has been the central plank of her approach even as the government has tightened policy at home — taking steps to make it easier to send migrants from Balkan nations home and making clear that not all Afghans will be allowed to stay.
Whether Merkel will have any more success in Europe in 2016 than last year is questionable.
Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico, an outspoken opponent of compulsory refugee quotas, said after the Cologne assaults that migrants can't be integrated and "we don't want what happened in Germany to happen here."
Merkel has pledged to reduce the influx but resisted calls to set a specific limit on the number of refugees Germany can take. She rallied her conservative party behind her stance a month ago, heading off calls for a cap by conceding that an unabated influx would "overburden" the country in the long run.
But after a few weeks' peace, her allies in the Bavaria-based Christian Social Union — her most prominent domestic critics over recent months — renewed their drive for tougher border controls and for a cap. The party's leader, governor Horst Seehofer, suggested an annual figure of 200,000 asylum-seekers, and grumbling has resurfaced in Merkel's own party.
Yet Merkel isn't budging and won't say by when she aims to get the numbers down.
"It wouldn't be right to name the exact day," she said. "We are working at high pressure on a sustainable reduction."
Her finance minister, Wolfgang Schaeuble, said Europe has only "finite" time to secure its external borders but wouldn't give a date. The daily Sueddeutsche Zeitung argued in an editorial that if things don't change by midyear, Merkel will have to declare a partial, temporary halt to admitting migrants.
The first electoral test since the refugee crisis escalated last summer comes on March 13.
In principle, there's much to gain for Merkel's party in three state elections. It aims to win back a traditional stronghold, the southwestern state of Baden-Wuerttemberg, after five years under a liberal government. In neighboring Rhineland-Palatinate, it hopes to end the center-left Social Democrats' 25 years at the helm; and in eastern Saxony-Anhalt, it looks well-placed to keep the governor's office.
Still, lackluster conservative results or a strong performance by the upstart Alternative for Germany party could increase the pressure on Merkel.
Alternative for Germany appeared to be fading last summer after its founding leader was ousted amid a switch from a euro-skeptic to an anti-immigration stance. It has since been bolstered by the huge migrant influx.
"While Merkel lulls the population with the empty phrase 'we will manage it,' it is now clear that she is not even able to protect women from attacks in public places," deputy leader Alexander Gauland said.
The direct impact on opinion polls of the Cologne assaults appears so far to be limited, though one survey showed Merkel's popularity sliding again. National polls in the past week have put support for Alternative for Germany between 9 and 11 percent, at most a point or two higher than late last year, with Merkel's Union bloc at 37 or 38 percent — its losses so far within the margin of error.
Still, Carsten Linnemann, a lawmaker with Merkel's Christian Democratic Union who has been critical of her open-ended approach, says "the mood among the grassroots is dreadful."
A telephone survey of 1,203 people conducted Jan. 12-14 for ZDF television found that 33 percent said the assaults had significantly changed their attitudes toward asylum and refugee issues, while 66 percent said they hadn't.
At the same time, 60 percent said that Germany can't cope with the many migrants who are arriving — up from 46 percent last month — and the number dissatisfied with Merkel's work on the refugee issue rose to 56 percent from 49. Despite those concerns, 57 percent said Seehofer's proposal for a refugee cap wasn't feasible. The poll gave a margin of error of plus or minus three points.
There is, however, no sign of any internal challenger to Merkel — and the more liberal Social Democrats, with whom Merkel currently runs Germany in a coalition, are so far behind in national polls that they seem unlikely to mount a serious challenge any time soon.
Manfred Guellner, the head of the Forsa polling agency, cautioned against overestimating the strength of the populist right. He argued that Alternative for Germany has become a "catchment basin" for people with anti-foreigner beliefs but doesn't have potential to climb higher, and could well fall back.
He also said Merkel's difficulties shouldn't be overstated.
"I think Merkel will still be with us for a few years," he said.
@Lucky - your recent ROK post really cracked me up - well done :-)
Per the article you quoted above: That is pretty much in line with what I would expect coming out of Germany. I do know the Germans well and once they embark on an ideological course it is almost impossible to derail them. This was the problem back in the 1930s and it equally applies today. Let's however also remember what has happened in Rotherham for over ten years where over 1400 children have been molested unchallenged. So that pattern of the Left to suppress inconvenient truths/news isn't new and it certainly isn't limited to Germany.
That said - Germany either wakes up now or it will auto-destruct. You all know my views on this. Another million migrants this year and we'll need a new thread titled 'The Civl War In Europe'. Germany will be first, then France and Austria. I don't think the current generation of Europeans is capable of dealing with the realities on the ground unless they face inescapable conditions.

This will be interesting to follow.
I see three possibilities:
1)Sharia finance becomes prohibited and aggressively prosecuted.
2)The financial elite finds a way to cash in on sharia finance as well.
3)It becomes clear that the financial elite is not pushing muslims upon Europe to increase the debt, impoverish the people and destroy white western civilization.
Something's brewing behind the scenes, but it seems Merkel is in serious trouble with her own party. There may even be a confidence vote. Should such a vote occur, I expect her to survive, but it will certainly rattle things.
Second I've been hearing news of a constitutional challenge to her open borders insanity, a challenge which some German legal scholars seem to believe has an excellent chance of succeeding:
Austria and Slovakia seem to now be stopping any invader that doesn't intend to settle in Germany, so Denmark and Sweden appear safe for the moment, and the Macedonian fence is doing a decent job at stopping the most blatant invaders. It seems slowly but surely, Viktor Orban's viewpoint is prevailing and the need to totally stop the flow is being recognized.

Definitely gay. He's what they call a "twink".

I've accepted that most white people don't want to survive. Instead of getting frustrated and angry you just have to let them be culled until things get much worse. With global debt and currency collapse this will get really interesting.
Quote:A veteran of the Dutch Army has been arrested on suspicion of murder, as it is thought that he killed Islamic State (IS) terrorists when fighting alongside Kurdish YPG forces in Syria.
Jitse Akse, 47, was arrested on Wednesday. He was released later that day after being forced to hand over his passport and agreeing to report to the police station weekly, Dutch public broadcaster NOS reported.
Despite the fact the Dutch air force is striking IS in neighbouring Iraq, the Dutch citizen could be tried as a murderer for his part in the fight against the terrorists in Northern Syria.
He explained that he had used his military skills of “flexibility [and] improvisation” to help the Kurdish people in Syria. “I had the chance to make a difference”, he said.
The soldier argued that his actions had saved innocent lives. “When you see what they’ve done … by killing a member of [IS] I have probably saved dozens of lives”, Mr. Akse told a local newspaper from his northern Dutch village.
However, Dutch authorities said that his actions may have been illegal, particularly his use of deadly force against the terrorist.
“The man is a former soldier whose case was extensively reported on last year in the media and on Facebook due to his involvement in the fight against the Islamic State,” the prosecutor’s office said in a statement.
“Dutch law – apart from in exceptional circumstances like self-defence – does not give citizens the right to use force and particularly not deadly force. Killing an [IS] fighter therefore could mean being prosecuted for murder,” the statement continued.
If tried, his case could prove an important one in determining whether or not killing terrorists in a war zone hundred of miles away from the Netherlands is illegal for Dutch citizens.
Some have pointed out that since Islamic State have declared war on Western civilisation and all out war in Syria, Mr. Akse’s actions could reasonably be interpreted as self defence on the battlefield.
However, the YPG, or Kurdish People’s Protection Units, with which he fought have been accused by Amnesty International of chasing citizens from their homes in Northern Syria.
The prosecutor’s office also argued that there was an important difference between people who travel to Syria independently to fight IS and the Dutch military, which is training fighters and carrying out bombing missions in neighbouring Iraq.
“The [Dutch] deployment and training takes place at the request of the Iraqi government and forms the legal basis for its presence there. It also applies to the deployment of Dutch F-16 fighters above Iraq,” the statement said.
If things keep going the way they are, a military or police mutiny might happen
Quote:So Sweden is becoming like the Muslim Middle East, where women need male handlers to step onto the streets in order to not be molested by the shabaab.
This is where Finland is headed if we do not end the flow of these people into our country, this a stark warning of the reality of housing people from alien cultures that do not respect women, and have absurd/twisted views on sex and sexuality.
NOTE: The discrepancy between wage earning women has to be due to the fact that low income earners are more likely to be housed near these migrants.
Every third woman afraid to go out alone
Every third woman in Sweden is afraid of going out alone and the fear is greater among less educated than the highly educated. It shows the Public Health Agency of national public health survey.
While 33 percent of women are afraid to go out alone, only nine percent of the men who have the same fear. It is primarily women aged 16-29 who are afraid to go out alone. In this group, 41 percent say they are afraid.
Among men, the oldest group in the survey who experience the most fear. Among 65-84-årigar are the 13 percent who are afraid to go out alone.
– In general, women’s fears decreased since 2005, while the rate for men has been at a standstill, says Silvia Olofsson, researcher at the National Public Health Agency.

The Swedish feminist whores and their progressive allies have successfully managed to change social landscape of a first world country into that of a third world shithole.

Quote:A school murder in Sweden, where a Lithuanian pupil was allegedly stabbed by a Syrian migrant classmate, is stoking racial tensions. Families of the victim and the alleged killer are trading accusations, but police are staying silent.
The killing took place on the first day of the new semester, January 11, at the Göinge School in Broby, Skåne County.
A 15-year-old Lithuanian-born boy, Arminas Pileckas, was murdered in the school by a 14-year-old classmate, reportedly from a family of Syrian refugees. Arminas was killed with a single stab into heart inflicted from behind with a kitchen knife, his family says.
The boys had an argument either in November or December that was videoed by classmates, but the tragic climax of the story took place January 11.
He claimed the conflict between the boys occurred because the Syrian teenager was sexually harassing a girl from their class and Arminas came to the defense of the classmate, which ended up in a short scuffle that made the Syrian teenager flee the scene.
According to Arminas’s father, the disgrace of being rebuffed made the Syrian boy swear revenge on Arminas, an intention he declared publicly.
The kid tries to stop this migrant from trying to rape a girl, then gets stabbed in the heart.
