Germany's Muslims demand better protection amid increased threats
2019-07-26
Mazyek says the attacks grown more violent and that many instances go unreported, as police forces and Germany's judiciary lack awareness and respective training. This problem is compounded, says Mazyek, by the fact that many Moslems do not report such abuse.
[DW] Germany's Moslems feel increasingly threatened after a number of recent bomb scares at mosques. Now, the heads of the country's leading Moslem associations want the government to take protective action.

In July alone, bomb threats have been made on mosques in the cities of Iserlohn, Villingen-Schwenningen and Munich, along with Cologne
...the largest city in North Rhine-Westphalia and the fourth populated city in Germany....

#9  Sunni-Shia festivities, gang violence and/or insurance fraud arson setting off secondary explosions doesn't seem to be mentioned under (quote_ Islamophobia (un-quote).

#8  The article goes on and on about threats but never mentions who is making them. (what's with 'journalists' and this lack of curiosity?) Judging from the news (yeah, bad sampling) most mosque bombings and vandalism are either internal mosque politics, Shia vs Sunni, or false flag ops to gin up sympathy. Certainly there is some real vandalism, but dollars to donuts, it is less than Christian churches.

It finds that almost one in five people think negatively of Muslims.

Rather than go for the obvious snark, let's look at the numbers. 1 in 5 is 20 percent. Flip this around and you get 80% do NOT think negatively of Muslims. Not quite so scary, eh?

Adding to the general sense of bullsh1t, the first recommended article on that page is:
Islamophobic attacks in Germany sharply decline
A parliamentary inquiry has found that anti-Muslim attacks have been dropping steadily since 2017. However, a Left party lawmaker warned that hatred is still being spread widely online and inside communities.

#2  What's the old saying, Do on to others what you want others to do on to you?

"And why worry about a speck in your friend's eye when you have a log in your own?" Matthew 7:3

So, how has your community been treating the Jewish population?

#1  The solution to the islamist menace is annihilation of the religion and its associated cultures like a plague. Keep killing them and dehumanizing them until they are brought to weigh their adamant adherence to their culture against survival. Convert or die ! Large areas may have to be de-populated for this, but the world will be better off. Humanity shall have time and repose to think about greater concerns than appeasing and accommodating regressive leeches and enemies of their societies.

Nations will become protectionist of their native demographic to the point of real xenophobia, and a return to 'ethnic cleansing'. No one can blame the people for imagining it today, but soon they will demand it. Denied by aboulomaniac administrations, they will simply jump the gun.
If they don't they will perish themselves.

It sounds evil and 'too much', I know. But wait and watch as the world is slowly brought to the same realization. There is coming a time when all the humanist "managing of expectations" will be unsustainable, making us murderers of millions.
