Report: Germany Probes Syrian Asylum-Seeker for IS Links
2015-09-21
[AnNahar] German police are investigating an asylum-seeker on suspicion that he fought for the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
group in Syria, newspaper Welt am Sonntag reported Sunday.

The suspect is a Syrian national and lives in an asylum-seeker shelter in the northeast region of Brandenburg, the newspaper reported, quoting security sources. The man had allegedly told other migrants living in the centre that he had fought for the IS group and killed people. His claims were filmed secretly with a mobile telephone by other residents of the shelter, leading to the probe.

Investigators are now trying to determine if the Syrian was indeed a member of the IS, the newspaper reported.

A spokeswoman for federal police declined to confirm or deny the report.

Despite the case, federal police do not believe that Islamists are infiltrating Germany through the influx of refugees.
"Whatever you do, don't alarm the rubes! If they panic, who knows what might happen!" Sadly for that approach, Germans are passing around links like this on Facebook and elsewhere.
