Nazis out, Islamofascists in: German elites ok with that

After the Second World War, Germany passed strict laws against any attempt to overthrow the country’s constitutional order. At the same time, it adopted a zero-tolerance approach to antisemitism.

Last week, however, the German state tolerated a rally that proclaimed both extreme antisemitism and the desire to topple German democracy.

The rally, which took place in Hamburg, was not organised by national socialists, but by a militant Islamist union. Of course, it is not OK to be a nazi – not in Germany, or anywhere else. But it appears that it is quite acceptable to be an Islamofascist – not just in Germany, but in most EU countries nowadays.

The rally called for the imposition of Sharia law and the establishment of a caliphate, but German Chancellor Scholz, who is also a former mayor of Hamburg, only reacted to the rally after severe public outcry. He did so in a mild, vague manner. So far nobody amongst the organisers has been arrested or prosecuted.

On the other hand, both the ruling socialist party and the German state have been very active in going after the AfD (Alternative for Germany), which steadily appears second in all polls ahead of June’s European Elections. Only during the last month, two senior AfD members have been brought to Justice.

In April, lawmaker Bjoern Hoecke, head of the AfD in the eastern state of Thuringia, appeared in court facing up to a year in jail for ending a campaign gathering in 2021 with the words “Everything for Germany.” It is a phrase that in the past had been used as a slogan by the SA, the original paramilitary wing of the Nazi Party.

Last week, a regional court in Lower Saxony convicted Rotenburg AfD leader Marie-Thérèse Kaiser for incitement to hatred. Her “hate crime” is that in 2021 she made mention of a “gang rape culture” amongst Afghans and posted state statistics showing that Afghans in Germany are particularly heavily involved in gang rape.

Kaiset was convicted according to the rationale of an EU Parliament’s 2024 resolution calling for hate speech to become an EU crime. “Those who attack human dignity cannot invoke freedom of speech,” her judge said. Interestingly enough, those are the exact words of the EU resolution’s rapporteur, Maite Gazapaurtundhua of Renew Europe.

The AfD has also found itself in the crosshairs of the German domestic intelligence agency, the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV). In a longstanding legal feud, the agency has been trying for years to establish that the party is a far-right organisation.

Lately, there have also been calls to defund the AfD – based on a recent decision to do the same with the extreme-right Homeland (formerly called NPD). In fact, the establishment would like to do away with the second-largest German party altogether. In early 2024, the co-chief of the ruling SPD came out in favour of discussing an outright ban.

So, in Germany anti-constitutional rhetoric and groups are illegal, unless they are of Islamist origin, in which case nothing really happens. What is more, to sound the alarm over a demographic and cultural invasion that threatens the very cornerstones of Western societies is no longer allowed.

And what about the people? According to the latest Deutchlandstrend survey, 41 per cent of Germans believe that immigration, asylum, and integration policies pose the biggest challenge to the EU. Amongst others, they appear particularly concerned about the Islamist threat to women’s rights and freedom of expression.

Maybe Germany’s ruling elites should consider prosecuting half of the Germans too.

Wouldn’t this be very anti-nazi?

A Patriotic Government Should Stand Up for the British People. We Never Voted for Mass Immigration

Addressing the New Culture Forum’s 2024 annual conference, Harrison Pitt, host of the NCF’s weekly discussion show “Deprogrammed”, argues that the Government needs to restore British privilege and place British people first.

‘Maybe they’re targeting Christians’: the abbey in Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives, France, desecrated on the eve of Ascension Day

The abbey of Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives (Calvados) was desecrated on the night that fell between the 8th and 9th of May 2024. This desecration caused a great stir in the local parish, especially as it was committed on the night before Ascension Day. A report was filed and an investigation initiated.

The abbey of Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives was raided and vandalised on the night before Ascension Day. In the early morning of May 9, the sacristan discovered the damage after opening the doors of the religious building, where a mass was due to take place a few hours later.

Vandalism to the tabernacles

She discovered that several tabernacles had been the target of break-ins or attempted break-ins. However, the perpetrators had not succeeded in breaking into the tabernacle containing the Blessed Sacrament. However, as it was doused with hot candle wax and broken open, it is now unusable. In the sacristy, the chasuble – a cupboard containing liturgical vestments – was also vandalised and chasubles were scattered on the floor.

The parish priest of the region, Father Donat Nsabimana, was alerted by a parishioner and had to cancel a first mass in Sainte-Marguerite-de-Viette in order to call the gendarmerie and go to the desecrated place where he had planned to celebrate a service in the late morning.

The city of Krefeld has decided to allow Muslim communities to announce the Islamic call to prayer over loudspeakers once a week in future. This was reported by German broadcaster WDR. Salih Tufan Ünal, Chairman of the Union of Turkish and Islamic Communities (ATIB), commented on this new agreement and emphasised its importance. As a native of Krefeld with family roots in Turkey, Ünal has a personal connection to the city and its Muslim community. According to Ünal, the imam of the Yunus Emre Mosque in the Stahldorf district of Krefeld will in future call people to prayer once a week, always on Fridays, via the permanently installed loudspeakers. Before signing the contract, the city of Krefeld consulted with various lobby groups, including representatives from politics, religion and the neighbourhood. The contract stipulates that noise limits must be observed during the call to prayer and that a fixed contact person is appointed for the neighbourhood. Salih Tufan Ünal explains that the call to prayer will now be heard once a week, on Fridays between 12 noon and 3 pm, for a maximum of five minutes. Technically, it has only been possible to broadcast the call to prayer in two of Krefeld’s six mosques. However, this decision is not uncontroversial. Prof. Dr Mouhanad Khorchide, Head of the Centre for Islamic Theology at the University of Münster, expressed doubts about the priority of this step and warned of possible fears and concerns.

Scandal at the University of Hamburg: Woman attacked by Somali woman during a lecture on anti-Semitism

After a lecture at the University of Hamburg on the subject of anti-Semitism and hostility towards Jews, a 56-year-old woman was attacked and beaten. The victim then defended herself, kicking and biting the attacker ( aged 26), Hamburg police said on Friday. According to the German-Israeli Society, the 56-year-old victim is one of its board members. The woman is also the wife of the lecturer. According to reports, the thug is believed to be from Somalia. The altercation occurred on Wednesday evening during a public lecture series, during which, according to police reports, there were initially repeated heckling. After the end of the event, the 56-year-old female attendee and several women from the audience got into an argument, during which the Somali woman suddenly attacked the lecturer’s wife and punched her in the face. The woman was treated medically.

The police brought criminal proceedings against both opponents on suspicion of assault. The State Security Department of the State Office of Criminal Investigation is investigating. The University of Hamburg condemned the attack. ‘We are deeply shocked and condemn this anti-Semitic act of violence utterly,’ said University President Hauke Heekeren on Thursday. ‘The incident is absolutely unacceptable and abhorrent.’ Jewish students, staff and guests must be safe at universities ‘without ifs and buts’.

‘Law and order must be enforced at universities,’ the German-Israeli Association (DIG) also demanded. According to the DIG Hamburg, the attacker presumably comes from the pro-Palestinian milieu. The ‘cowardly attack’ is part of an increasing escalation of the situation. There have also recently been pro-Palestinian actions at other universities and colleges in Germany.

Germany: Government Fails to Condemn Yet Another Assault on Right-Wing Party Members

AFD

The left-wing radical militant group Antifa has claimed responsibility for an attack in Stuttgart on two Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) lawmakers. Miguel Klauß and Hans-Jürgen Goßner, two of the party’s members of the Baden-Württemberg regional parliament, were injured on Wednesday, May 8th, while campaigning in the city centre. .

The anti-immigration politicians had set up an AfD information stand as part of a festival celebrating the 75th anniversary of Germany’s 1949 constitution. Up to half a dozen left-wing activists arrived on the scene and held up a banner right in front of AfD’s booth, blocking its view. A scuffle ensued, insults were traded, and the two lawmakers were physically assaulted—one of them suffered head injuries, the other neck injuries, but neither required medical assistance.

Antifa—notorious for using physical violence to attack and intimidate people it disagrees with—proudly acknowledged that the assault had been committed by its members, calling their action a “creative disruption.”

Germany is facing a wave of attacks on politicians who are campaigning in June’s European elections, as well as three regional elections to be held in the eastern states of the country in the autumn. AfD members are the most frequently assaulted group, yet a recent attack against Social Democrat Matthias Ecke garnered the most attention from both mainstream parties and the media, who blamed AfD for “inciting hatred” and “sowing discord” in society.

Miguel Klauß criticised the media for not reporting on cases involving the AfD, or belittling such incidents by relegating stories to the regional section of news websites. “If someone from the SPD and Co. is hit with a gym bag, there are special broadcasts and press conferences,” he tweeted.

While Social Democrat (SPD) Federal Interior Minister Nancy Faeser did not denounce the attack on the AfD lawmakers, she denounced the beating of Ecke, saying “offenders who actively attack political activists must feel the full force of the law. That means swift, consistent proceedings and punishments.” Following the incident, Faeser called for a meeting with her state-level colleagues to discuss the rise of political violence across Germany.

The meeting was held on Tuesday, but did not go down well with the centre-right opposition Christian Democrats (CDU), according to a report by Die Welt. “Ms. Faeser is just making noises in public, but she doesn’t do anything to protect politicians,” a CDU interior minister told the publication, criticising their federal counterpart for doing nothing but giving her state-level colleagues half-baked advice on what they should be doing to address the problem of political violence.

The opposition party also criticised the fact that Faeser wanted to explain the conclusions of the meeting alone to the media at a press conference. The uproar forced the minister to cancel the media event and organise a new one, this time with the participation of CDU lawmakers.

The carbon capture con

By Viv Forbes

Carbon capture and underground storage (CCUS) tops the list of silly schemes “to reduce man-made global warming.”  The idea is to capture exhaust gases from power stations or cement plants, separate the CO2 from the other gases, compress it, pump it to the chosen burial site, and force it underground into permeable rock formations.  Then hope it never escapes.

An Australian mining company who should know better is hoping to appease green critics by proposing to bury the gas of life, CO2, deep in the sedimentary rocks of Australia’s Great Artesian Basin.

The people running this company have chosen the Precipice Sandstone for their carbon cemetery.  However, the chances of keeping CO2 gas confined in this porous sandstone are remote.  This formation has a large area of outcrop to the surface, and gas will escape somewhere, so why bother forcing it into a jail with no roof?

Glencore shareholders should rise in anger at this wasteful and futile pagan sacrifice to the global warming gods.  It will join fiascos like Snowy 2, pink bats, and SunCable (a dream to take solar energy generated in the Northern Territory via overhead and undersea cable for over 3,000 miles across ocean deeps and volcanic belts to Singapore).

Engineers with buckets of easy money may base a whole career on CCUS.  But only stupid green zealots would support the sacrifice of billions of investment dollars and scads of energy to bury this harmless, invisible, life-supporting gas in the hope of appeasing the high priests of global warming.

The quantities of gases that CCUS would need to handle are enormous, and the capital and operating costs will be horrendous.  It is a dreadful waste of energy and resources, consuming about twenty percent of power delivered from an otherwise efficient coal-fired power station.

For every ton of coal burnt in a power station, about 11 tons of gases are exhausted — 7.5 ton of nitrogen from the air used to burn the coal, plus 2.5 ton of CO2 and one ton of water vapor from the coal combustion process.

Normally, these beneficial atmospheric gases are released to the atmosphere after filters take out any nasties like soot and noxious fumes.

However, CCUS also requires energy to produce and fabricate steel and erect gas storages, pumps, and pipelines and to drill disposal wells.  This will chew up more coal resources and produce yet more carbon dioxide, for zero benefit.

But the real problem is at the burial site — how to create a secure space to hold the CO2.

There is no vacuum occurring naturally anywhere on Earth.  Every bit of space on Earth is occupied by something: solids, liquids, or gases.  Underground disposal of CO2 requires it to be pumped against the pressure of whatever fills the pore space of the rock formation now — either natural gases or liquids.  These pressures can be substantial, especially after more gas is pumped in.

The natural gases in sedimentary rock formations are commonly air, CO2; CH4 (methane); or, rarely, H2S (rotten egg gas).  The liquids are commonly salty water; sometimes fresh water; or, very rarely, liquid hydrocarbons.

Pumping out air is costly; pumping out natural CO2 to make room for man-made CO2 is pointless; and releasing rotten egg gas or salty water on the surface would create a real problem, unlike the imaginary threat from CO2.

In some cases, CCUS may require the removal of fresh water to make space for CO2.

Producing fresh water on the surface would be seen as a boon by most locals.  Pumping out salt water to make space to bury CO2 would create more problems than it could solve.

Naturally, some carbon dioxide buried under pressure will dissolve in groundwater and aerate it, so that the next water driller in the area could get a real bonus: bubbling Perrier water on tap, worth more than oil.

Then there is the dangerous risk of a surface outburst or leakage from a pressurized underground reservoir of CO2.  The atmosphere contains 0.04% CO2, which is beneficial for all life.  But the gas in a CCUS reservoir would contain over 90% of this heavier-than-air gas — a lethal, suffocating concentration for nearby animal life if it escaped in a gas outburst.

Pumping gases underground is sensible only if it brings real benefits, such as using waste gases to increase oil recovery from declining oil fields — frack the strata, pump in CO2, and force out oil and gas.  To find a place where you could drive out natural hydrocarbons in order to make space to bury CO2 would be like winning the lottery — a profitable but unlikely event.

Normally, however, CCUS will be futile, as the oceans will largely undo whatever man tries to do with CO2 in the atmosphere.  Oceans contain vastly more CO2 than the thin, puny atmosphere, and oceans maintain equilibrium between CO2 in the atmosphere and CO2 dissolved in the oceans.  If man releases CO2 into the atmosphere, the oceans will quickly absorb much of it.  And if by some fluke man reduced the CO2 in the atmosphere, CO2 would bubble out of the oceans to replace much of it.  Or just one decent volcanic explosion could negate the whole CCUS exercise.

Increased CO2 in the atmosphere encourages all plants to grow better and use more CO2.  Unfortunately, natural processes are continually sequestering huge tonnages of CO2 into extensive deposits of shale, coal, limestone, dolomite, and magnesite.  This process has driven atmospheric CO2 to dangerously low concentrations.  Burning hydrocarbons and making cement returns a tiny bit of this plant food from the lithosphere to the biosphere.

Regulating atmospheric carbon dioxide is best left to the oceans and plants — they have been doing it successfully for millennia.

The only certain outcome from CCUS is more expensive electricity and a waste of energy resources to do all the separation, compressing, and pumping.  Unscrupulous coal industry leaders love the idea of selling more coal to produce the same amount of electricity, and electricity generators would welcome an increased demand for power.  And green zealots in USA plan to force all coal and gas plants to bury all CO2 plant food that they generate.  Consumers and taxpayers are the suckers.

Naturally, the Greens love the idea of making coal and gas-fired electricity more expensive.  They conveniently ignore the fact that CCUS is anti-life — it steals plant food from the biosphere.

Global warming has never been a threat to life on Earth.  Ice is the killer.

Glencore directors supporting this CCUS stupidity should be condemned for destructive ignorance.

Some policemen were attacked outside Milan’s Central Station late on Thursday in the second serious assault on officers in the city in two days.
A 36-year-old Egyptian asylum seeker, reportedly under the effects of drugs, turned on the officers after being cited for throwing stones and acts of vandalism.
After unsuccessfully trying to taser the attacker, one of the officers shot him in the shoulder.
He was injured but is not in a life-threatening condition, sources said.
A 35-year-old policeman is in a critical condition in Milan’s Niguarda hospital after being stabbed by a man in the area of the city’s Lambrate station on Wednesday night.
The policeman intervened after the attacker, a 37-year-old Moroccan, started throwing stones at trains and one hit a 55-year-old woman in the head.
The cop was stabbed three times in the back and underwent emergency surgery for organ damage.
The 37-year-old was tasered and arrested.

France: Chadian teen beaten and abused by her family as punishment for dating; her boyfriend was also kidnapped and tortured by her male relatives

https://www.fdesouche.com/

The mother and older brother of a 16-year-old Chadian girl living in France have been arrested on suspicion of kidnapping and torturing a 16-year-old teenager the girl had begun dating.

Reims public prosecutor François Schneider confirmed the arrests on Thursday but revealed there are at least five members of the girl’s family being investigated in relation to the incident.

On May 5, the teenage boy was reportedly lured from his home by an acquaintance before being forced into a Renault Clio and driven to an apartment on rue Alain-Polliart in the Croix-Rouge district of the city.

He was dragged down to a cellar where he was held captive and beaten severely, allegedly by his migrant girlfriend’s family.

Investigators believe the motive for the attack was revenge for entering into a relationship with the teenager.

The victim was later found walking the street where he managed to flag down a motorist who offered him assistance. He had multiple bruises on his body, several fractures to his nose, and a laceration on his right temple believed to have been a stab wound. A police source confirmed he was incapacitated for eight days, and the attack had resulted in a “very significant psychological impact” on the boy.

At a press conference on Friday, Schneider revealed further disturbing facts surrounding the case, including an allegation by the 16-year-old Chadian girl that she had been abused by her brothers and her mother who had shaved her head and spat at her after learning about the relationship.

The girl managed to escape the family residence and flee to a police station where she claimed she had been severely beaten by her family, including by her mother who had held a knife to her throat.

“Obviously, given the violence of the events as described by the two victims, it was decided to arrest the family as quickly as possible, who were obviously starting to look for her everywhere and apparently knew where she had taken refuge,” Schneider told press.

“People were arrested. It should be noted that the mother and older brother were questioned. The older brother was convicted in 2023 for serious violence to a prison sentence and was currently under an electronic tag. In his last statements, he admitted that he had discovered photos and videos on his sister’s phone implicating Karim, who was the first victim in this case, and that this had infuriated him,” he explained.

According to the authorities, the older brother admitted to beating his sister and confronting her boyfriend; however, he denies being violent towards him.

“The mother in question, after denying everything, admitted hitting her daughter after discovering her relationship with Karim, but denied biting her or spitting at her, let alone threatening her with a knife.

“However, she had witnessed the older brother’s violence towards her younger sister and, contrary to her son’s claims, she said that she had never been present when Karim was in the flat. She did, however, admit to cutting off her daughter’s hair with a pair of scissors.”

The public prosecutor confirmed the suspected offenses are punishable by up to 20 years in prison.

The investigation is ongoing.
