Terror attack on Berlin Pride

[HermioneWeasley]

police are looking for a suspect with Islamist links.

yesterday I saw that islamic bookshops run by the Muslim brotherhood (who are banned in Egypt and I think the UAE) are bringing “workers” over on skilled worker visas. The UAE has stopped government scholarships to British universities because they are worried about their young people being radicalised here!

islamic terrorism is a problem. 75% of Mi5’s watch list are Muslim.

how do we remain a safe and tolerant place for the many peaceful Muslims while still retaining our values and safety?

Berlin Pride attack: suspect named after one killed and 16 injured

Yes, it must have been related to the amnesty, otherwise why would this happen now? Crazy situation. They all want to get into Europe but they only bring chaos.

Most of them have now gone back to Morocco.

Yes, there's a lesson to be learned here. Maybe they wouldn't have gone back so willingly if they'd been picked up from the sea, taxied to the shore, accommodated in hotels, given food, medical treatment, clothing, access to left-wing lawyers and the prospect of being granted asylum and being able to bring their family over or not being granted asylum but staying anyway.

Maybe they wouldn't have gone back at all. In fact, probably a great many more would arrive.

The woman dumped like trash in a suitcase in Greece was raped and murdered by one the Afghan migrants she was trying to help with her kind heart. How much more of this are we supposed to put up with?

Yes, that's crazy. It's suicidal empathy. There should be a complete halt to allowing any more males from countries like Afghanistan into Europe. It's reckless and the risk is way too high. I wish all the harm these people do could be visited on the activist lawyers and judges who help them to stay.

What I find frustrating is the way these attacks are portrayed in the press. Look at how Reuters covered this story with the attack described as a " Major vehicle ramming incident ". It's as though they are blaming the vehicles for the attacks.

It's blatantly clear that the reason for these attacks is Islamic extremists, the vehicles are simply the weapon. So why is the mainstream media afraid of just stating this?

In addition the 2016 reference point is also relevant, as that is the year Angela Merkel allowed approximately 1 million mostly Afghan, Syrian and Iraqis young males into the country.

Why doesn't the media ever point that out.

Sadly the fear of being called Islamophobic seems to be more important to the media than actually reporting events truthfully.

None of this Islamic terrorism appeared before 2015.

What was 9/11 then? And London's 7/7? Madrid train bombings? All way before 2015.

I believe they're being specific to Germany.

Aha! Figured I'd missed something. However, a quick Google shows several failed terrorist attacks in Germany before 2015.

Frankfurt Airport shooting, in 2011, when an ethnic Albanian lone actor named Arid Uka radicalized via internet propaganda, shot and killed two U.S. airmen and wounded two others on a military bus at Frankfurt Airport. He was sentenced to life in prison. It was a prominent early example of online self-radicalization in Germany.

The Sauerland Group plot of 2007, for example, where German authorities successfully disrupted a major Al-Qaeda-linked terrorist cell that planned catastrophic bomb attacks against American military installations and crowded public venues in Germany.

I was being specific to Germany, hence the Angela Merkel reference.
