By now, most will have heard about the mass sexual attacks in Cologne on New Year’s Eve, perpetrated by ‘Syrian’ refugees. ‘Syrian’ because, no matter that some perps came from other MENA (Middle East And North Africa) countries, they’re all ‘Syrians’ now.
Slowly, slowly reports of similar mass attacks by similar groups of ‘refugees’ are being published in the EU MSM: Zurich, Salzburg and Vienna, Helsinki, Sweden and a handful of other big German cities like Hamburg, Frankfurt, Stuttgart and Munich.
On the one hand, it’s nice, isn’t it, that we get to learn about these attacks, albeit a week later and albeit only after one local paper in Cologne reported this two days afterwards, because the social media were already full of this.
On the other hand, it is astonishing how similar the attitude of police, politicians and MSM in all the different countries are. I don’t exclude our own politicians, police and MSM because we all know how something like Rotherham became possible.
We can now read in German papers that, yes, the police have been told by the governing politicians not to mention the ethnic origin of perps, that the German MSM are following a voluntary code of never mentioning the names of perps if they’re obviously not German, that police leaders are being told by their ministers to ‘prettify’ statistics so that ‘the public won’t become upset’ by the number of crimes perpetrated by those who are not “Bio-Germans” – I love that expression for native Germans …
But that is not all by any means.
The majority of quality national online papers in Germany are populated by journalists who see nothing wrong with not publishing anything about what happened in Cologne until it simply can no longer be brushed under the carpet. The reason is that this attack, and moreover reporting it, would strengthen the AfD, which is, in case you didn’t know, a right wing, eurosceptic party when looked at without prejudice – but which is nearly as bad as Hitler’s NSDAP for any well-thinking German, especially any German journalist, who is of course more green and left than main-stream conservative.
Suppressing news for political reasons …. hm, didn’t we have that already in Germany?
And then we have the professional feminists, politicians and ‘journalists’. They are providing us with examples of whataboutery which are unsurpassed in ridiculous arguments. One Green female politician told us that mentioning these mass attacks is racist, and anyway, it’s not a ‘refugee’ issue because it’s an issue of male, patriarchal oppression and German men do the same. Well, perhaps not all at once, but they could, they could! And what about the Octoberfest! They drink there, don’t they, and women get groped …
Yep – about 20 reported rapes/attacks, over two weeks, and with over 2 million visitors. In Cologne alone, there are now nearly 200 reports over a few hours and perpetrated by about 1,000 ‘refugees’. Whataboutery at its finest!
Some ask where were the German men defending their women … Those who did were beaten up and ended in hospital – but you won’t read much about that except in local MSM. So what about showing civil courage? Yeah, right – because just as here, those men defending their women would get their collars felt by the police for racially aggravated violence while the perps get their knuckles rapped and sent on their way.
For all the whataboutery, for all the ‘mustn’t say anything because it would make the plebs even more racist’, journalists are not looking at how the people – here in the UK, in Germany, France, Austria, Switzerland – have been misled, to say the least, by an unholy alliance of politicians, locally and nationally, police, and hacks. And they still keep quiet and don’t ask the right questions …
We still haven’t learned, never mind accepted, that the vile accusation of ‘racism’, especially when patently not true, has led to and perpetuated what happened in Rotherham, Rochester, Birmingham, Bristol – and in Cologne, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Zurich, Helsinki, Vienna ….
Whataboutery, fear of being labelled ‘racist’, local politics imported from MENA countries, like Tower Hamlets: these we must fight. And yes, we must hold the feet to the fire, nationally and locally, of the establishment, this unholy alliance of politicians, administrators and hacks. If the ordinary Germans can start doing it, so can we!
Schadenfreude I think is due.
AngUlar Merkel (sharp elbows and sharp teeth)
Queen of the Storm Troopers
Puts the fear of God into the Greeks and a few other servile creditor nations (no subsistence for paupers)
Fast forward a few months
“Cuddly” AngUlar “Queen of Cornucopia” generous and open handed to a biblical fault, expressing the humanity and conscience of her nation sadly lost sometime during the last century.
Fast forward another short while
Storm Trooper mode only those welcome prepared to abide by German Culture (why doesn`t she say only Muslims prepared to change religion welcome)
But to me the joke is she had the chance to solve the Euro crisis and show German solidarity and benevolence a year or so ago and now she`s reaping the whirlwind and all her German conscience salving counts for nought.
Well done AngUla – couldn`t happen to a nicer person
If anyone missed the first “Tracey Ullman Show”, broadcast Mon 11th Jan, BBC1, they should try to catch up with it. She did a brilliant impression of Merkel trying to play down her sex appeal and objecting to Nicola Sturgeon copying her style. For anyone as angry and disgusted with Smirkel as I am, the laughter was a great release.
Meanwhile, the Chancellorette is well protected from the depredations of the criminals she has welcomed to her country, isn’t she, whilst ordinary Germans are fair game, apparently.
A large number of Isis men have arrived in Germany with the intention of causing big trouble. They have arrived as “asylum seekers” with no equipment. It will take time to smuggle in the necessary explosives and weapons to commence serious terrorism. Meanwhile they have thought of a way of causing alarm, using only the equipment they have – their bodies.
I’m afraid that the proper military equipment is on the way.
Indeed, I sent an email to the PM urging him to refrain from parroting the ludicrous lie “Islam is the religion of peace”, thereby insulting the intelligence of those who can see quite clearly for themselves that it is nothing of the sort. I suggested that he enlighten his ignorance by reading Spencer’s “The Truth about Muhammad”. If he and other politicians bother to read it, it might dawn on them that Islam is the religion of peace only provided you belong to the right Muslim community, ie Sunnis among Sunnis, Shias among Shias etc. As for the rest of us poor, benighted “non-muslims” (how I hate that term) – the vast majority of the people on the planet – there will be no peace for us unbelievers until we convert to islam, or pay huge taxes for the privilege of being allowed to live, or are killed for our intransigence. Then we go to hell where allah will take pleasure in torturing us for eternity. This is the ‘truth’ taught by the Koran and the fact that not every muslim practises it in its literal form is a relief, but not an assurance that they won’t at some future date when perhaps they think they are winning.
Meanwhile, every single jihad nut job that takes his destructive religion seriously is one too many. These people should be interned for the duration of the war.
The “What about the Crusades?” limp-brained brigade should try reading Robert Spencer’s “The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (And the Crusades)”.
To paraphrase Churchill: Never in the course of human history have so many lived in such abysmal ignorance of their enemies while so much deception is practised upon them by so few. The Left in this country and in the West generally are the 5th column and the traitors within, influencing horrendously PC and one-sided attitudes and laws. If we had genuine direct democracy with the people deciding on how the country is run, instead of the travesty of democracy now prevalent, the Left would be reduced to the nobodies and nothings they really are.
I’m glad you mention Robert Spencer!
His small book, “The Truth about Muhammad” is outstanding, indispensable, and ought to be required reading for all our politicians, Whitehall mandarins and hacks – provided they’re capable of reading!
Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind …
The weak politicians of the West are asking for civil disobedience, civil unrest, demonstrations and riots by behaving in this insane way. Do they really think they can keep this kind of barbaric migrant behaviour under wraps in the internet age? If Merkel is not already ashamed of what she has inflicted on the German people and the whole of Europe in allowing millions of muslims in, she ought to be MADE to hang her head in shame and disgrace by being thrown out of office, castigated and treated as a pariah in her own country and everywhere else. I’d like to see her prosecuted for undemocratic crimes against the safety and security of half a billion people and imprisoned for a long stretch as a warning to other arrogant and overbearing politicians.
Like you, Vivien, I’m sick to the back teeth of ‘whataboutery’ such as “What about the awful things Christians did in the past?” when criticisms of islam and islamist depravity are made. Yes, WHAT about it? Doesn’t the fact that that was then and this is NOW, in the 21st century, mean anything to these foolish apologists? I can hardly believe that such savagery, immorality, inhumanity, barbarity and nightmare mediaeval behaviour is being perpetrated every day by a so-called religion in this age of advanced science and technology. Yet it is, and no one should rely on mainstream media to tell all. You need jihadwatch for that, Robert Spencer being one of its main contributors.
Yes, I’m also sick of this whataboutery nearly always coming from the green and left, and if I hear one more person say ‘what about’ the crusades, I shall become violent …!
I do hope that some journalists are now encouraged to look a bit more closely at what is going on, but when I read that the terrorist killed by French police a few days ago had seven – yes, seven! – identities as “refugee” in Germany, and was known both by French and German police as criminal before, but was still free to go and try doing what he did (kill French Police), then I do have my doubts that we’ll be able, never mind willing, to come to grips with this.
My doubts are evens stronger when I read that 2,000 police were available to coral and disperse the roughly 3,000 PEGIDA demonstrators yesterday in Cologne. The “Antifa”-left counter demo was allowed to happen … Oh, and the police used water cannon: where were those on New Years Eve?
Governments, police: they do have the power, but are unwilling to use it against those these powers need to be used against because that would be racist. Instead, they hound ordinary people protesting – because they’re the bad racists, so that’s ok!
I’m already mega-angry, and we’re not even half-way through the first month of the New Year!
