Muhammad Atta told the passengers on the flight he hijacked on September 11, 2001: “Stay quiet and you’ll be OK.” They weren’t. Nor will the Germans be: even if they silence protests against jihad terror, jihad terror will still come at them.
“Germany bans anti-Islam rally, citing terror threat,” by Frank Zeller, Times of Israel, January 18, 2015:
DRESDEN, Germany (AFP) — German police banned a planned rally by the anti-Islamic PEGIDA movement and other public open-air gatherings in the eastern city of Dresden Monday, citing a terrorist threat.
Dresden police said Sunday they had received information from federal and state counterparts indicating a “concrete threat” against the right-wing populist group “Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamization of the Occident.”
There had been calls for would-be “assassins to mingle among the protesters… and to murder an individual member of the organizing team of the PEGIDA demonstrations,” police said in a notice on the 24-hour ban.
This was consistent with “an Arabic-language tweet that called the PEGIDA demonstrations an enemy of Islam,” it said.
Top-circulation daily Bild said online that the threat targeted PEGIDA’s most prominent leader Lutz Bachmann.
The PEGIDA marches — which have voiced anger against Islam and “criminal asylum seekers” and vented a host of other grievances — began in Dresden in October with several hundred supporters and have since steadily grown.
They drew a record 25,000 people last Monday, in the wake of the attacks by radical Islamists in Paris in which 17 people were killed.
Also last Monday, some 100,000 Germans marched in nationwide counter-demonstrations against PEGIDA.
Dresden police said that after the latest information “and given the characteristics of terrorist attacks, we must assume the use of homicidal means and an immediate threat to life and limb of all participants of the demonstrations.”
Because there were no individual suspects, Dresden police said it saw no alternative to the temporary suspension of the constitutional right to free assembly within city limits.
PEGIDA earlier told its followers on Facebook that its 13th planned rally had been scrapped, citing a threat from the Islamic State jihadist group, and portraying the cancellation as its own decision.
“What in police jargon is called an ‘abstract threat’ has changed to a ‘concrete death threat’ against a member of the organizing team. IS terrorists have ordered his assassination,” it said in a statement.
It had decided to call off the Dresden event as it could not guarantee the security of marchers and feared “collateral damage.”
In a later press release, it said that after having failed to agree with police on a way to secure the march, it had “considered it irresponsible to expose our sympathizers and our city to incalculable risks”.
Germany’s Der Spiegel news weekly reported Friday that foreign intelligence services had picked up communications by some “known international jihadists” indicating they had discussed possible attacks on PEGIDA rallies.
“We take these leads very seriously,” Spiegel quoted an unnamed high-ranking security official as saying.
Chancellor Angela Merkel last Thursday vowed to step up security measures against Islamist militants, while vowing that Germany would not be divided by extremism of any kind.
“Hate preachers, violent delinquents who act in the name of Islam, those behind them, and the intellectual arsonists of international terrorism will be rigorously fought with all legal means at the disposal of the state,” she told parliament.
Merkel has also stressed that “Islam is part of Germany,” vowed to defend Muslims against racist slurs and attacks, and charged that PEGIDA’s leaders are motivated by “prejudice, coldness, even hatred in their hearts.”
On Friday, around 250 police raided 11 premises linked to Islamists in Berlin, arresting two men of Turkish origin suspected of planning violence in Syria.
One of the men was suspected of “leading an Islamist extremist group made up of Turkish and Russian nationals from Chechnya and Dagestan,” police said….

Either the threats are real, or they are not.
In either case it’s not looking good for free Germany.
Boston Tea Party says
Exactly. Either “you don’t have the right to publicly oppose Islam,” or “The German state can’t protect your right to publicly oppose Islam.”

“Either the threats are real, or they are not.”

Right!
Pamela, Robert, Charlie Hebdo and countless others face what I consider “concrete threats” on a fairly regular basis, and yet they march on.
And although I don’t have evidence to support this, I don’t know of many “threats” that actually result in an attack. Terrorists are all about the “shock and awe” factor. Dedicated terrorists give no warning.
Sadly, threats are part of society’s fabric. They are posted on social media, scrawled on bathroom walls, called in, delivered in white powder laced envelopes, etc.
If we bow down to threats, we’re doomed.
Stay safe, all!
pumbar says
Exactly. This smacks of the organisers buckling under pressure from their government and law enforcement.

What did the ‘prophet’ Muhammad do when he and his companions captures women?
TELL THE WHOLE WORLD
Tell the world what Muhammad and his companions did with captured women and baby girls.
Let the whole world know about the ugly filth of Muhammad.
Angemon says
“Concrete threat”, “calls to would-be assassins” but “no individual suspects”? BS. I think this is just a handy way to stop PEGIDA from protesting without getting die fuhrerin’s hands dirty.
“‘A matter of internal security’ – the age-old cry of the oppressor.”

“German police banned a planned rally by the anti-Islamic PEGIDA movement”
This is the first test of how serous the PEDIGA movement is.
When the Muslim Brotherhood thugs were ruling Egypt they did the same: ban all demonstrations. The Egyptian people defied the ban and took to the streets by the millions. AND THEY WON.
That’s what PEDIGA must do: DEFY THE BAN. Your Power is your Numbers.
Anything else is, simply put,: SUBMISSION.

The Chimps must be laughing out loud about how they can take down Germany with a phone call. I hope the Germans all march anyway and I hope the mob tears the limbs off of any Islamist who attempts to injure any real Germans.
We all need to do what we have to do. The politicians are not on our side.
Georg says
Sounds about right, unfortunately.
Jay Boo says
Who are the Muslim leaders inciting assassinations against proponents of free speech.
Isn’t it a justified act of self-defense to remove such a threat by any means necessary just as Osama Ben Laden was removed.
Bezelel says
There you go again, making too much sense. I bet alot of Germans agree with you.
ruth says
I think it is time to take the government down when the government sides with the enemy of mankind whether it be Cameron, Obama or Merkel…These dim wits better read the history of Islam and how they acquired their lands they have stolen for 1400 years..Not to mention the murder of innocents every step of the way…The governments of the people owe their allegiance and protection to the people not to some moronic demonic religion…No wonder God has brought us into judgment…
Salah says

“PAUL WESTON, leader of LibertyGB in the UK, weighs in on the Charlie Hebdo Muslim massacre.”

“The attack wasn’t about free speech, it was about Muslims trying to impose sharia-compliant blasphemy laws on the West….YES, Muslims, and not just the most radical ones.”
Allan Mandrowski says
This proves the protestors point. Islam intimidates and thus limits Freedom.
I hope the German people will take a week off and come back with updated security measurements for the next PEGIDA. We should NOT be silenced.
p.s. Merkel is a traitor.
tilda says
Hmmm…. What is meant by “assembly”?
Does temporary suspension of “the right to free assembly within city limits” mean that no one can drive slowly around the city while blowing whistles out of car windows or occasionally leaning on a car horn?
Does it mean citizens can’t stand outside their own front doors banging kitchen pots and pans at a pre-arranged time?
Does it mean people can’t engage in a social media blitz at a pre-arranged time?
Max Publius says
How ironic is that? Don’t protest jihad (stealth, violent or combination, which is what they are protesting, above all else), because of jihad.
katnis says
COME ON, CITIZENS OF GERMANY! Show us what you’re made of! Are you so easily intimidated? Get your asses out there and MARCH!

During revolutions, the ones taking over, take over all means of communications….radio, television, newspapers…whatever means the public has had at the time…
If the ones opposing can’t get their news out, only the *news* from those taking over can be heard.
muslims are taking over and one of the ways is to stop communications…calling it *racist*, *bigotry* *hate* or *blasphemy* and all of it their made-up term or islam o phobia, which is just another term for sharia compliance in hopes they can intimidate all speakers of truth about islam into compliance with sharia and be silent. When their words don’t work to silence all, then threats of violence and violence come.
If they silence those who wish to call attention to their evil efforts to silence everyone non-muslim, then how will people know others agree with them in their recognition of the evil beast and its intentions to take over and subjugate the entire population of earth for satan the devil? (Revelation 13)
Thankfully, Jesus said the truth will always conquer, because He conquered (John 16:33).
Angelika Stockmann says
I am German living in Australia and have always been a proud German. I kept my German citizenship (dual citizenship is not allowed for Germans). I love Australia and I am very active in the fight against the islamization of Australia. We are fighting a tough fight here against useless politicians who don’t want to listen, don’t want to lose the Muslim vote, call everybody who stands up against Islam a redneck and bigot.
As a German one can imagine the discussions I had for years about Nazi-Germany and why Germans didn’t stand up against Hitler. Now I have to listen to friends who tell me not to stand up against Islam, to be careful, to stay away from all this.
I am so appalled about Merkel’s New Years speech, about her presence in Paris (how dare she), her statement that Islam is a part of Germany.
I fear for Germany! I fear for my home country to be taken over by Islam, I fear for my brothers and sisters who inevitably have to fight against each other to save their country, their identity, their freedom. I fear for a country which has given so much to the world. My heart is with you every day hoping that you stand up against Merkel, a leader who is in power too long, who has lost all touch with reality of life in Europe, who sides with one of the most brutal regimes in the world Saudi Arabia for their money and who simply takes herself too important.
I have now decided to become an Australian citizen and forgo my German citizenship as I still see a slim chance in Australia to win the fight against Islam but unfortunately I can’t see a future free of this horrible political system called Islam in Germany.
May God be with you!
Know Thy Enemy says
“Now I have to listen to friends who tell me not to stand up against Islam, to be careful, to stay away from all this.”
Well, remind them of how everyone bugs the Germans about not standing up against Hitler and Nazism!
———————
As for the concern regarding Germany, Australia, and rest of the west, I recently realized something- That if Islam can be defeated in ANY single western country, it will cause a domino effect and then soon Islam will be defeated throughout the west! This will happen because of the globalized nature of today’s world.
Now readers will wonder what the benefit of such realization is, and how can we put it to practice? Well… if there is any country where things appear to be going against Islam, we should all team up with the citizens there and 1) help them crush Islam in their country, and 2) help them set up a long term anti-Islamic regime. We need to work with such unity if we hope to be victorious over Islam.
Then soon Islam will start going down throughout the west!

If an attack came, it would only strengthen the protest’s point.
Are these Germans in PEGIDA not willing to stake their lives for their freedom?
The jihadis are willing to stake theirs for unfreedom.
March in defiance, or be cowed along with the usual cravenocracy.
Jaladhi says
Islam only belongs in the Saudi Arabia. Everywhere else Muslims are invaders and looters. Even when they are allowed to come in as immigrants, they plan to invade the country demographics!!

“Islam is a part of Germany?” So is bier. Push comes to shove, guess which one will still be around when the other is banned?
I hope it is bier, but I’m afraid that the Germans have been infected with the multi-culti virus. And when it is all over, there will only be one culture. Unless you can consider the slaves as having a culture.
Fools, all of them.
mortimer says
If the Germans want to change the demographics of Germany, it’s their choice. No one can stop them if they don’t want to become a minority in in their country.
The problem is that many Germans are cultural Marxists and extremely confused about their identity or if they want to have one.
Arthur says
How ridiculous!! Angela Merkel KNOWS that Islam is a religion of peace, and therefore the PEGIDA marchers have nothing to fear at all. The march must go on!
This is doublespeak of a most magnificent sort! It is wrong to protest Islam because Muslims are peaceful and it is unsafe to protest Islam because Muslims are violent. Peace is violence and violence is peace.

Did the EDL cancel demos after a group of Muslims were caught with a car full of weapons and explosives intended for an EDL march in Dewsbury?
No they did not.

Actually the lefties are more threatening in this case : they rioted the last time in 7 cities – NOTHING in the media about that at all ….

The lefties are happy so long as they can feel superior and can get their skinny latte from Starbucks.
Once their necks are in the grip of REAL Islam they will cry and plead only to be struck away in the name of that hateful book the koran.
TIARD Martine says
Even Angela Merkel, who is the better politic woman we can find nowadays in Europe, is “islamophile” and pro-immigration. It’s a pity !
Bill says
This is very bad news. Mass demonstrations are necessary to counter Islamization. Cowardice will not defeat Islam.
Asian Crusader says
DHIMWITS.
Richard says
The demonstrations must continue ,no matter what. It has gotten to this point by the governments of western countries ignoring the problems Islamists bring to their host nations. To forbid the only outlet of expression will be ultimately disasterous to German ,or any other western society . The breakdown of trust in government and the collapse of free speech will almost certainly bring on civil war .
PatnCats says
No matter the”’real”’ or ”’perceived”’ or ”’imagined” threats – free people need to protest. A.M. needs to shut up about Islamophobes – the koran is full of hate – a real murder book for all of us who are not muslms – I was appalled when I read it last year. The koran- ie. – MOHAMMED hated and called for the killing of any who mocked or disagreed with him and DEMANDED ALL OBEY ALLAH AND ALLAH’s MESSENGER! Well well, what better way to SELF-DECLARE youself as the RIGHT HAND OF A MADE-UP FAKE GOD? WHat a deal, what a deal!
