Germany: Muslim leader calls for limit on refugee numbers

Dec 12, 2015 4:32 pm By Robert Spencer

Why that racist, bigoted, Islamo– uh…

Aiman Mazyek

“Muslim leader calls for limit on refugee numbers,” The Local, December 1, 2015:

The head of Germany’s largest Muslim organization has called for a limit on the number of refugees Germany takes in, saying the country can give little more.

“Morally speaking there can’t be an upper limit to how many refugees we take in because of what our constitution says and due to our historical responsibility.”

“But when we talk about our practical ability it’s a different question,” Aiman Mazyek, chairman of the Central Council of Muslims (ZMD) told the Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung.

“This upper limit would seem to be at the point of being reached,” he added.

Muslims have a particular responsibility when it come to helping in the refugee crisis, Mazyek said, pointing out that Muslim have already provided a lot of help.

“But they could achieve even more if the government and society would support us more and trust our integration methods more,” he added.

Only recently the ZMD had rejected calls for an upper limit on refugee numbers.

The number of Muslims in Germany has increased by around 25 percent in a matter of months as thousands of refugees from the Middle East, Afghanistan and Pakistan have arrived in the country on a daily basis since the summer.

The right-wing Alternative for Germany Party saw the statement as an acceptance by Germany’s umbrella Muslim organization of their policy, tweeting that “The ZMD goes public with the AfD’s demand. Asylum needs boundaries!”

But other Twitter commenters saw the decision as being driven by self-protection, with Maschinist Njall tweeting “of course they’ve done this. They are worried about losing their influence.”….

    “trust our integration methods more”?
    Recep Tayyip Erdogan, on a visit to Germany, addressing the Turkish community in a huge sports venue, commanded them NOT to integrate, but to keep their Muslim Turkish identity. That expresses “our integration methods” well.

      Most Muslims living in the West LOVE THE FREEDOM and don’t want to live in a Muslim country or they would go back.

      Most Muslims would support an immigration policy that RESTRICTS bring more Muslims to not TIP THE BALANCE of those who support democracy to those who support discriminatory SHARIA!

    “Morally speaking there can’t be an upper limit to how many refugees we take in because of what our constitution says and due to our historical responsibility.”

    No, morally speaking that number can – and should – be “ZERO” – the first duty of a country is to with its citizens, not with citizens from another nation, especially citizens from nations whose culture derives from their religion and commands them to wage war against people of other religions. Also, what’s this “historical responsibility” nonsense? What have the Germans did, historically, to warrant any sort of responsibility over muslim “refugees”?

      Germans and the muslims were deep in bed together during both world wars.
      They promised each other world domination, then failed to deliver.

        “Germans and the muslims were … in bed together during both world wars” FACTUALLY CORRECT.

        A pact with the devil. The Germans have learned nothing from their history with Islam.

          Bullocks.

          “… learned nothing from their history…” Have a look at the US, to be specific, have a look at a company called ARAMCO, when it was founded, its history and Gvmnt involvement. Apparently, you’ve learned even less then the evil, disgusting Germans.

          The stupid, evil, pathetic, foolish, blah blah Germans may have been for a short term of their history in bed with islam (no they haven’t, with some Muslims yes, but even the Nazis were not that stupid), more like sitting on the edge of the bed. Ah, those evil, stupid, backward Germans… What have you been smoking except hatred and propaganda?

          Conversely, the US, since the 1920’s’ yeah, ARAMCO… How old is the US? No, the wise Americans are not in bed with Islam, it’s more like copulating with Islam for a considerable part of its history. Sort of political/financial Kama-Sutra. Have a look at ARAMCO, and you will know who’s in bed with whom. May I commend you on your wisdom and understanding? Compare the time and length of their history, the evil stupid Germans were ‘in bed’ with Islam(?) with the time and length of your history – and your orgy with Islam. The Germans have learned nothing? It seems they have learned vastly more than you. BTW, they are actually letting Christian refugees in as well, unlike the US, and helping them to settle.

          If you care to google, you’ll find page upon page about ARAMCO, it’s easy to follow the money. But it’s easier blaming others for ones own deeds. In a sneering, self-righteous fashion.

          You guys are certainly a Taqyians wet dream, they don’t have to spread sedition among peoples of the same culture and civilization, they have you doing it, they only have to lean back and enjoy the discord.

          Poor chaps
          No reply expected, except perhaps hatred
          Salute Mini-Taqyins

    He knows full well that a bunch of ne’er-do-well Muslims will make them all look bad; that this may bring about a tipping point where the west will no longer be amused or accepting of Muslims.

    • Westman says

      Dec 13, 2015 at 12:17 am

      Exactly.

      The initial waves of Muslims to Europe and the US were a “brain drain” of talented Muslims looking for a future they could never have in Islam-dominated states. Many became professionals, merchants, and skilled tradesmen. Many have been in the West for two or more generations and tend toward secularism.

      The current migration contains preponderance of men who have little skills or command of the languages of Europe and will surely spoil the reputation of industrious and patriotic minorly-devout Muslims should their numbers swamp the older Muslim comunity.

        Mohammedans, except their talent in ‘Taqiyya’, has little of any other skill to offer to this world & human race.
        The first wave of mohammedan influx into Britain happened during 60’s. most were from Pakistan (east & west), unskilled & uneducated, they were brought in to run the Looms in places like Birmingham & Lancashire.
        France brought in hundreds of thousands of mohammedans from it’s former colonies in North Africa, like their counterparts from Pakistan they were unskilled & uneducated too, for menial jobs.
        Germany brought in unskilled/uneducated labour from it’s former ally Turkey to work in their industries, namely; auto, when it became too expensive to hire native Germans.
        In Canada the first mohammedans to arrive in any numbers were ‘ismilies’ who were kicked out of Uganda by Idi Amin who didn’t like the ‘ismilie’ sect of islam. Then during 80’s under Trudeau sr. and subsequent Liberal govt. mohammedans from different part of the world made to Canada. Needless to say barring few individuals most were uneducated & unskilled with NO intentions of assimilating into Canadian society. The Canadian Conservatives under Stephen Harper were no better, they brought in 600,000 mohammedans in the last 9 years of their rule effectively doubling the mohammedan population in Canada.

      Exactly, خَليفة.

      Aiman Mazyek also called for “Syrian” migrants to be made to sign a document, RIGHT NOW, confirming that they understand that the constitution and civil law trumps Islam.

      Unlike fashionable Western academics, Turks and Syrians (Arabs, but geographically and culturally closest to Turks, hence despised and hated by other Arabs) retain a collective memory of how the Ottoman Empire dealt with its often recalcitrant and rebellious subjects, especially Arab tribes under the sway of one or other Wahhabi preacher.

      Mazyek and his group do NOT want to be saddled with collective responsibility for the welfare dependency, rape culture, and general backwardness that he knows will inevitably follow as the variegated groups posing as “Syrian refugees” settle in Dar-al-Kufar, the land of jizya, milk, honey and beer.

    This is because they have enough in Europe and UK now to completely eff up everything — they have to shift more focus on to the US!

    Just some background info on Mayzek: he is a serious islamist but he shills for Erdogan. He is worried (and said so) that islam becomes less Turkish and more Arab. That’s why he wants to limit the influx.

    “This upper limit would seem to be at the point of being reached,” he added.
    You don’t say…

    I wonder why he can see the truth and the rest of them can’t….he’s probably a Shi’ite or something….

    The man is a well-known islamist in disguise (turk) feasing the arab competition. As long Merkel ships Turks (see the “agreement” with Erdogan) his power base is secured.
