1,000 Muslims screaming “Allahu akbar” set fire to Germany’s oldest church on New Year’s Eve

Jan 4, 2017 12:26 am By Robert Spencer

This is war, but only one side is fighting. Those who are dismayed at what Muslims in Germany are doing, and what to stop it, are denounced as neo-Nazis: “There was uproar in Germany last month when St Reinold’s Church was occupied by identitarians in protest against the Islamisation of Germany. The demonstration was denounced as a ‘clear provocation by neo-Nazis’ by Dortmund pastor Friedrich Stiller. Dortmund’s ‘Special Commissioner for Tolerance and Democracy’ demanded more taxpayers’ money be put towards ‘Comeback’, the city’s ‘neo-Nazi deradicalisation programme’ in the wake of the protest. ‘The money the city gives, 50,000 euros per year, is no longer enough,’ Hartmut Anders-Hoepgen, said.”

“Revealed: 1,000-Man Mob Attack Police, Set Germany’s Oldest Church Alight on New Year’s Eve,” by Virginia Hale, Breitbart, January 3, 2017:

At New Year’s Eve celebrations in Dortmund a mob of more than 1,000 men chanted ‘Allahu Akhbar’, launched fireworks at police, and set fire to a historic church.

Already by 7 pm a man was hospitalised with first-degree burns to his face and hands after fireworks were hurled at a group of homeless people outside the city’s main train station. More than two dozen people were injured at festivities in Dortmund, some seriously.

The events of the night were described as “quiet” by police in a statement, and as “normal” by a spokesman for the city government.

But at 11:30pm police announced they were adding to their already much larger than usual presence in the city centre for New Year, sending in further reinforcements of officers.

This came after the force reported there being a “large number of young men from North Africa” in town, with federal police officer Volker Stall noting there was an “aggressive mood” towards the public and police.

At midnight, the situation threatened to escalate. A livewire published by the Ruhr Nachrichten reported that a crowd of “at least 1,000 young men” began throwing fireworks into crowds of visitors, which also included families with children. Asked by officers to stop, the mob turned to pelt fireworks at police instead.

Despite the prohibition of lighting pyrotechnics near churches, firemen had to intervene after fireworks were launched at St Reinolds, Germany’s oldest church, setting the roof alight.

Also reported by the Ruhr Nachrichten was that “a group of Syrians sang in celebration of the ceasefire in Syria.” However, a video posted to Twitter by one of the newspaper’s reporters, paired with the caption “Syrians celebrate the truce in their country”, shows a group of men chanting ‘Allahu Akhbar’ around the flag of al-Qaeda and Islamic State collaborators, the ‘Free Syrian Army’.

There was uproar in Germany last month when St Reinold’s Church was occupied by identitarians in protest against the Islamisation of Germany. The demonstration was denounced as a “clear provocation by neo-Nazis” by Dortmund pastor Friedrich Stiller.

Dortmund’s ‘Special Commissioner for Tolerance and Democracy’ demanded more taxpayers’ money be put towards “Comeback”, the city’s ‘neo-Nazi deradicalisation programme’ in the wake of the protest. “The money the city gives, 50,000 euros per year, is no longer enough,” Hartmut Anders-Hoepgen, said.

        Indeed it will happen; I’ve been saying that for many years now. When 9/11 happened, I thought that in spite of all the horrible aspects of this terrorist attack, at least it would wake up Americns ti the real threat facing the US. Boy, was I ever wrong! The first thing we heard from our leaders was that all Muslims are not like this. Duh–really?? Which begs the question, Was that the response of many Americans reactedin the aftermath of Pearl Harbor? I think not.

          It sure woke me up. I had been increasingly concerned about Muslim terrorism, but it took 9/11 to get me to really study Islam, and to recognize it as a truly existential threat.

Incase you do not know, rattlesnakes are very deadly when they release enough venom. I just pray that the German guilt of two generations ago of are not in anyway related to the Islamic pigs that now are ruining the nation.. wake UP!!! There is no time to waste!!

      I am not so sure they still have the upper hand! Germany seemed to be run by a group of apologists who still feel guilt from WWII.

      In my opinion, Europe is ruined and short of a miracle, nothing is going to save it. We in America still have the upper hand and can stop the Islamic social cancer; however, we better get moving.

      We are in a religious war and the RCC Pope is lending comfort to the enemy. As we turn into a more secular society, all it would take is one charismatic religious leader [Prot, Prysb, Episco, Bap or Method] with the balls to stand up and denounce Islam and all it’s followers to become the new spiritual leader in America. I would go to that church.

      We did not start this war but we mean to finish it!

        There is hope from Eastern European countries — those who bordered the original Islamic caliphate — such as Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, Chech Repub… they are vocally against the Islamic invasion and have taken action by enforcing borders. Over the weekend some muslim’s knifed a pole to death and approx 300 poles mobilized and burned their kebob shop to the ground.

        Eastern Europe will show the way!

          I believe this too. I have been continuously impressed by the actions of Eastern Europe since the mass Muslim scourge started, and in particular Hungary’s govt. They are really a shining example of practicality and sanity in the face of the EU and its insane Merkel-inspired ideas. It’s getting very hard to keep feeling sympathy for the Germans. They stay silent as their heritage and culture is destroyed and blame “Neo-Nazis”. They STILL wouldn’t know real Nazism if it bit them in the ass. The real fascists are sitting in their govt, the same way they were in 1937. The real fascists are socialists, the same way they were in 1937. They are pulling the wool over a naive, morally lazy populace’s eyes.. the same way it was done in 1937. They will suffer what they sow. The same goes for the likes of the UK, where several major cities have Muslim govt now, and shariah enclaves are quietly accepted… Let’s see how that works for you, 5 years from now, 10 years from now…. Like I say, getting very hard to feel sorry for them.

    My biggest concern is that Germany must have run out of money. They don’t have enough Euros to even purchase live ammunition for their police force(s) and military.

    Well, one needs to consider the largesse that Germany has laid upon the mohammedans … Almost all of them are on welfare … the German people have to give them food, clothing, shelter, medical care, legal assistance, special classes … and the list goes on. Obviously, this has drained that nation’s treasury.

    So, no funding to purchase ammunition. So, the ran out. What other reason could there be for not using it?

    • John Doe says

    • LB says

      Jan 4, 2017 at 2:49 am

      Despite the recent huge number of “guest arrivals” (that’s how they call it in the media), with over 99% of them being on welfare, Germany is still one of the richest countries in Europe. So it’s not that they can’t afford live ammo, it’s that they DARE NOT EVEN THINK about using it on a non-white person out of fear of being labeled “racist”. I’ve been to Germany recently and you have no idea how deep the Nazi PTSD runs among the native Germans.

      Besides, spraying live rounds on a rioting mob? Where in the West have you ever seen that happening?

        Well a few water cannon wouldn’t come amiss if you don’t want to actually kill the swine. In the States some years ago they developed water cannon which used slippery stuff which they couldn’t stand up in. Everyone fell down.

        I suppose this is considered too PC incorrect, but it might help these situations. If you added dye to the water you could see who had been out rioting and round them up. If the authorities had any gumption they would then deport them.

        If only!!

        Jan 5, 2017 at 6:46 am

        To clarify, my personal experience was with the young, rich, fresh-out-of-college native German people. So basically college students. And just like many college students in the West where the Left is deeply rooted, they came out into the real world thinking that being white is equal to being Hitler.

        I have no doubt in my mind that there are large numbers of native Germans who see these “migrants” exactly for what they are. Hence so much support for AfD and PEGIDA. But in my opinion, those people are working class who are forced to live next to the invaders and have seen or experienced for themselves what the mudslimes have came to Germany for.

        My only concern is that the rich college kids will never wake up from their leftist brainwashing and will eventually assume Germany’s top posts without realizing the threat islam poses to the West. That top German UN official whose daughter was raped and murdered by a muslim “migrant” is an example of what I’m talking about.

        He taught her the same leftist delusional bullshit he was taught in college, so she went and joined the volunteers at a refugee centre which got her raped and killed. And what does he and his dumb bimbo wife do? He goes and GIVES HIS DAUGHTER’S FUNERAL MONEY TO “POOR MUSLIM MIGRANTS” BECAUSE “THEY NEED IT MORE THAN HER”!!!

        This is what I’m afraid of. To me, it’s not the muslim that killed his daughter, her father was the real killer. Because you can’t blame a starved wild animal for killing your child, you can only blame yourself for letting your child go near it unprotected.

        DFD, thanks for your reply. I noticed that Anne Smith, in her 10:22 a.m. comment, suggested the use of water cannons. That seems to be a feasible option. However, the failure to do anything exacerbates the public opinion that law enforcement is prohibited from keeping its citizenry and facilities safe.

        For police to respond appropriately against such dangerous, life-threatening, illegal activity may well be viewed as escalation, but failure to do so firmly conveys an undeniable message to the actors: “We are afraid of you.” As such, law and order have just incurred a major defeat.

        Additionally, actions such as these will escalate, regardless of police intervention. There will be more blood to flow. This scenario is but a precursor of things to come. Yet, you and I know that.

        Hope you, too, had a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year!

    This is a modern social experiment.

    Look at the evidence; and make a judgement.

    1. Merkel opens the doors to a million unknowns purporting to be “Syrian Refugees”
    2. The arrivals include many who come from Africa and elsewhere; and have no ties to the refugees
    3. There is no effort to check identities, or to keep a track on any newcomer. They disappear…
    4. Overwhelming numbers are imposed on small villages, without consultation
    5. Billion$ of Euros are spent on these unknowns, while poor citizens are ignored
    6. Homes are taken over and state properties are given as homes and shelters for the newcomers
    7. The new arrivals complain about the food and the slow internet; and despoil fresh water in order to sell the containers for cash
    8. Violence spikes and soars, rape becomes commonplace; and rapists are unpunished in sympathy for their lack of understanding the raping boys and girls ls NOT OK…
    9. German municipal officials tell their constituents that if they don’t like the way the ‘refugees’ treat them, they can leave…
    10. Merkel and EU parliament try to force other nations to “take their share” of her “invited guests”
    11. Eu society is being destroyed by rape and other crimes, yet the media and police keep mum
    12. Anyone complaining or reporting refugee violence is vilified and ostracised
    13. The newcomers state plainly that they will forcibly rape and make children with local girls – not one government statement of condemnation
    14. Muslims state plainly that they will impose Sharia on the unwilling citizens, yet governments say this is not what they are saying
    15. Amid the mayhem, Merkel advocates turning the other cheek when her violent Islamic darlings upset us – traumatised citizens are told to “respond with Love and Compassion”

    And these governments, whose primary duty is the safety of their citizens, are not kicked out…

    Question: On the evidence, does this appear to be a situation which will end well…?

      Merkel should take the public transport in my region once, at 11 o’clock when all the hard working people are where? At work. And you are the only ‘white’ person in the train, forced to stand, because: muslims sit and christians stand! go to a shopping street at 11 o’clock, during the week, when all the working people are where? At work. And your friends from russia that came for vacation asked shocked: Are there no Germans living in this region? this looks like Bagdad!

      But why should any politician care?!? It is not them in the streets. The get driven straight from home to work, their shopping is done by somebody else. The older ladies in my neighborhood (one of the best in a large German city) stopped going downtown alone already before the refugee crises, because all got Harassed at least once. But who cares? The city provided four offices for victims of ‘violence from right’
      (does not matter 80% of the political motivated violence come from left) but if you ask for help as a victim of violence from migrants (even the definition of racism is majority over minority lets call it racism) they look at you: this does not exist and do not tell, nobody wants to hear!!

      One thing always forgotten: the nazis, NSDAP, was not right! The ideology is left.
      But one thing: already the antisemitism in the 20s and 30s proofed one thing clear. Multiculturalism does not work. If a group united by race or ideology take advantage over others from their situation, there is an reaction that can not be called friendly.

        Multiculturalism has worked very well for a very long time in places like the US, Australia, Canada and even in Europe until Muslims started flooding in.
        It’s not multiculturalism that’s at fault here but allowing one dangerous ideology to flood in. Nobody else caused these problems before.

        • The left & Muslim alliance says

          Jan 5, 2017 at 7:43 am

          Multiculturalism didn’t work well in places like the US, Australia and Canada.

          Multiculturalism was just a scheme by the left to import their voter base. Anyone criticizing the concept was accused of racism. The left politicians could strike rent seeker deals with ethnic leaders in return for a guarantee that the ethnic bloc would vote left. Multiculturalism collapsed when citizens realised that 1. they had no say over how their country was changing and 2. the new immigrants were more loyal to the country, ethnicity, tribe or religion they left than their virtually non-existent loyalty to their new country. Muslims are just a very prominent group of immigrants who refuse to assimilate into their adopted country.

          The problem is a collusion between the political left and Islam.

          I tend to agree. It took me a very long time to realize it, but the diversity myth ignores what we know about human nature. We identify with those who share the most commonality with us, and the whole idea of nationhood is based on kinship. We can pretend those things don’t matter all we want, but Utopian ideas and multiculturalism have failed far more often than thy have succeeded

          The diversity myth, like the speeches of Josef Goebbels, has been driven into the minds of millions so shard and so long that it has become an article of faith. The far Left has swallowed the idea with the same enthusiasm that the Russian hierarchy swallowed the hokey science of Lysenko.

          Ron – Like Mother Nature sez, “Birds of a feather flock together”.

          While I agree with Mother N, what she says does not rule out the possibility of multiculturalism’s thriving in a free society. There are degrees. It is one thing to tolerate a culture not one’s own. But it’s quite another thing to be coerced into “respecting” or “embracing” or “supporting” another culture upon penalty of law..Like the convenient crime that embodies mind reading on the part of the enforcers – “hate crimes,” Very slippery slope, and we’ve been sliding for decades.

          Admittedly, there are degrees, as you say. But some cultures and some peoples are so far removed from others that accommodation makes for an unhappy society at best. Sociologist have long known that homogeneous societies are happier than heterogeneous ones, although the far Left Utopian idealists would never admit it.

          Islam and Christianity or Judaism are about as extreme an example as I can think of. Combining Islamic and Judeo-Christian societies is a recipe for disaster. They are diametrically opposed ideas and a prescription for disaster.

          Ron – Being a lapsed Episcopalian (low church) myself, I approach the question from a different, secular, position that is nonetheless important. Islam, the quran and shariah are TOTALLY INCOMPATIBLE with the US CONSTITUTION and Western culture and tradition. Of course they are incompatible with Christianity and Judaism and all other religions not them. I prefer to leave the religious arguments to those more learned and committed than I and, instead, have chosen to fight jihad in the name of the sovereignty of the USA and the rescue of the Constitution, which is in tatters.

          To The left & Muslim alliance re “Multiculturalism didn’t work well in places like the US, Australia and Canada.”

          I think you’re dead wrong here, with all due respect.

          “Multiculturalism” has worked just fine for a couple of centuries in the USA, and ditto in the UK, though in a somewhat more understated way, and Canada as well, UNTIL we politicized immigration and started building a Marxian political base (thank you, Ted Kennedy), virtually limiting immigration to the poorest and least likely to succeed from around the world, and then only to compound the disaster by grabbing as many muslims as we could add to the mix and dropping them here and there throughout the USA, establishing them in government and the monstrous attendant bureaucracy, welcoming jihad into our very bosom..

          I spent most of my adult life in NYC, and if that was not a successful “multicultural” population, I don’t know what you’d call it. Everybody got along just fine during the 30+ years I lived there, the 60s notwithstanding.

          The problem comes when “multiculturalism” is interpreted as a virtue in and of itself (as the Leftists would have us believe – dissembling: the real, practical and desired result is the unstoppable, relentless establishment of a non-reversible leftist voting block in the US through manipulating demographics) instead of a simple noun which means “more than one culture”.

          Obama and his regime have ruthlessly exploited any and all potential for division of the US population along racial and cultural lines. Things have never been so toxic as they are now, thanks to the leftist totalitarianism of the past 8 years.

          Whether it’s “multiculturalism” or “obamacare”, I think you’ll find people ultimately will resent having massive social engineering that threatens to destroy our very society and culture crammed down their throats. I know I’m gagging.

          Multiculturalism didn’t work well in places like the US, Australia and Canada.
          —————————————–

          Let me put it this way them. Until the invasion of Muslims, Australia has benefited from multiculturalism. Most people who came here didn’t take anything away from Australian way of life but they did add to it. Now we have wonderful restaurants which are on par with other world class restaurants and cafes. We have traditions like Chinese new year celebrated and we can either enjoy them or stay away from them. Nobody is forcing us to embrace anything. Many of our sports stars have some ethnic background and they compete for Australia and do us proud.
          Everything these migrants brought with them was offered to us and never pushed on us and we benefited from that.
          This is a multiculturalism working well.

          Now we have Muslims who are bringing their way of life but instead of simply offering it to us to sample if we wish, they are demanding that we embrace it. They are ruining it for everyone.
          So let’s not throw out the baby with the bath water. Let’s not discourage people from practicing their traditions and introducing new things into our society. We have nothing to fear from that. We can either enjoy in it as well or just don’t bother with it. What we have to fear is Islam only and as far as I am concerned what Muslims are doing doesn’t fall into the category of multiculturalism but invasion.

        • quota raven says

          Jan 5, 2017 at 10:12 pm

          to Peggy, who observes, “what Muslims are doing doesn’t fall into the category of multiculturalism but invasion.”

          Exactly right, Peggy. The muslim invasion – at our invitation – is beyond multiculturalism. It is an invasion and they are waging war against all of us.

          We have the same relationship with Chinese New Year (my personal favorite, btw!), San Gennaro, and many various ethnic parades and holidays in NYC, and they are happy occasions during which all kinds of people can enjoy, have fun and, yes, even “celebrate” in a low key sort of way, “multiculturalism.” When I lived in NYC, I attended quite a few Passover dinners and Shabbat dinners, although I’m not Jewish myself. ,I had many friends of all kinds of background.

          Interestingly, although I worked for years with a number of muslims, I never set foot in any of their houses nor was I ever invited to participate in any social activity with any of them, male or female.

          And, Peggy, sorry for leaving Australia out of my earlier comments. I’m,just not personally familiar with Aussies, never having visited your wonderful country. I’ve always admired it from afar…very afar, esp when I lived on the East Coast!

          New cultures introduce good things (eg food and festivals) and bad things (eg crime and undesirable cultural traits).

          But the real issues with a change from an assimilationist immigration policy concerns issues of primary loyalty and self-identity.

          Countries such as US, UK, Australia and Canada might have been multi-ethnic prior to the 1960s, but there was strong normative social pressure to integrate into the adopted country. Immigrants arriving at Ellis Island from all over were expected to become American. Immigrants to Australia were called New Australians, denoting that although they may eat strange food or have a non-Anglicized name they were expected to transfer their loyalty to Australia and become Australian.

          After Ted Kennedy changed America’s immigration laws in 1965 to bring in future Democrat voters, other Anglosphere countries followed suit. Trudeau in Canada formally coined the term Multiculturalism. Upon the leftwing ALP taking power in 1972, Australia adopted multiculturalism, which meant immigrants were no longer expected or required to transfer their loyalty to their adopted country. They could live in the new country while remaining emotionally loyal to the old country. Multiculturalism as a policy is a disaster. It should be replaced by a return to assimilationist immigration policies, which demand a transfer of loyalty to the new country before citizenship is conferred. Because Muslims will never transfer loyalty, it should be questioned whether they should be welcomed as immigrants into the West or made citizens in Western countries.

    O’er the world he’d hold sway
    And he wouldn’t be stuck in a khazi

    This is a typical example of fake news. There are some elements of truth, but the suggestion in the headline is not supported by the facts. There is no indication that a muslim mob deliberately set fire to the church. All reports I have seen talk about a small fire in a net attached to construction scaffolding, perhaps caused by fireworks that landed there accidentally. Perhaps someone shouted Allahuh Akbar, but they may shout that for lots of reasons, for example to celebrate the Syrian truce. Scenes as shown in some of the videos are unfortunately completely standard on New Year’s even in many European cities. A few years ago in the Netherlands 22 schools were burnt down in that one night. This has nothing to do with immigrants. Of course it is possible that the politically correct media are hiding facts, but to spin this as a systematic attack on christianity is just ridiculous at this point.

        Mob violence against the police on New Year’s eve is a common phenomenon in Holland for years already, and it has nothing to do with Islam.

Eine Silvesterrakete hatte dort ein Fangnetz eines Baugerüsts in Brand gesetzt. Ein kleines Feuer, das schnell gelöscht war.”

          All it says is that a firecracker had set fire to a safety net on building scaffolding around the church. No statement about who lit this firecracker, nor if it was aimed intentionally at the church, nor that it was done by muslims. Breitbart turns this into “Revealed: 1,000-Man Mob Attack Police, Set Germany’s Oldest Church Alight on New Year’s Eve” and then Robert Spencer goes one step further and writes “1,000 Muslims screaming “Allahu akbar” set fire to Germany’s oldest church on New Year’s Eve”. This suggests an intentional attack by mobs of muslims on a church. I have found no evidence for that in this article.

About 22 were set on fire and severely damaged, but only about three burned down completely. This sort of thing is happening every year, and the peak in school fires was around 2008/2009. As far as I know these are neither accidents nor ideology-motivated, but just vandalism.

          Your firm assertion that Muslims had nothing to do with this does not appear to be borne out by these articles. “Youth”, of course, is often shorthand for “Muslim” in the UK. Not sure if this euphemism is used in the Netherlands, as well.

The former beautiful Hanseatic City of Dortmund had been destroyed by 98% (comparible to Aleppo).

    Nowadays Dortmund is a migrant city, one of the worst with an islamistic communtiy. If you are a tourist, don’t go there. There are safer and far more beautiful places in Westfalia.

        “The Germans, who once tried to eliminate the Jews among them, felt so guilty about what they did that they invited millions of the worst-possible people to replace them”

        Remember Merkel’s comment when her new “Children” started attacking Jews everywhere…?

        She said: “I don’t understand why there’s so much anti-semitism”…

        Unlike most West Germans (she’s from the East), Merkel does not suffer from “too much Holocaust Guilt”, but she’s quick to use this lingering national guilt against the citizens of what she still sees as “West Germany”…

        In fact, as the evidence mounts; and she digs-in her heels against her country’s outrage, it’s becoming all too clear that Merkel’s agenda is very similar to Obama’s – the complete eradication of the Western way of life.

        It turns out that she’s still a Communist at heart, with all the anger of a Communist defeated; and she’s determined to make the West pay for its humiliation of her ideology.

        Obama’s agenda is also retributive; and has the same anti-West aim, but not for the sin of defeating communism – it’s for the sin of regarding the oil-rich Muslim pseudo-kings as the disgusting barbarians which they certainly are.

        Notice how low this “US President” bowed to the Arabian “king” when they first met…?
        This is how any Muslim would behave when standing before his ideological master.
        And being a closet Muslim, Obama could not help himself – even in front of the World’s media – he was inwardly compelled to show his great respect for his Muslim superior.

        History will expose both Obama’s and Merkel’s anti-West hatred; and the world will wonder how easily intelligent nations were deceived. Also, how a creeping, deceitful agenda was imposed on a distracted citizenry. These are the tactics propounded by Stalin himself: “To defeat a powerful enemy, one must act with stealth and deceit. We must corrupt their youth with drugs and “soft” philosophy; and use their tolerance and good-heartedness against them whenever possible. It’s their own strength which will defeat them…”

        Just look at how “Left”-leaning Western universities have become; and how they teach anti-West philosophy.

        Will we learn from this history, or will the Western World succumb to the anti-West onslaught, too paralysed by that great imposter – Political Correctness – to react appropriately?

      I don’t believe that her popularity is rising. It’s the same as all news outlets saying how Hillary is so much more popular than Trump.
      Be careful which site you believe.

      Khushi, here are Merkel’s ratings from this August:

      “Merkel’s Approval Rating Plunges Following Attacks in Germany”

        If this is true, then I am happy. Her popularity should be plunging. Germans must reject her as a leader. She has done tremendous damage to Germany already.

        Good to hear from you Gravenimage. Wishing you a great 2017.

    To: Klaas

    Are you suggesting then that all is well in Germany? That there has been no increase in crime, most migrants are genuine Syrian refugees, and most are are hard working citizens? And the future looks bright ahead?

    If so lets all stop worrying, and ignore the historical record? (Islamic invasion of Spain by the Moors, Islamic invasion of Eastern Europe by Ottoman Turks? And so much more)

    Remember Churchill in the ‘wilderness years’ before WW2 – crying out against the disarmament of Britain and the gathering storm?, Some times the writing on the wall is not clear to everyone.

    • Klaas says

      Jan 4, 2017 at 9:04 am

      No, I am not suggesting anything you are saying. I am as worried about islamisation is everyone else here. I am just saying that this particular headline is not supported by the facts mentioned in the articles that are linked to. Maybe in the last line I should have written: “to spin this PARTICULAR INCIDENT as PART OF a systematic attack on christianity is just ridiculous at this point.”

    The left fascists always claim they are the moral superiors whilst allowing the rapes, murders and pillaging to go on by the invading culture. If anyone dares question the invading culture and their crimes the left call for more sanctions against the citizens.

    That’s the difference between the USA and the EU. A thousand muslims trying to burn down a church in the USA would find hot lead, and lots of it, heading their way.

  21. John J Flanagan says

    Historically, the root of the issue is that Islam does not assimilate into Western and Christian societies and is incompatible with non-Islamic cultures. In host nations where Islam spreads, sectarian violence results. A wise Christian nation can aid refugees in safe havens in Muslim lands, but allowing Islam into their countries in the name of tolerance and religious freedom is almost suicidal. The teachings of the Koran do not suggest toleration for non Muslim people. An ordinary educated and historically aware person knows this, but progressives, liberals, and people like Angela Merkel hold on to unreasonable and irrational expectations. For the sake of their survival, the German people need to sack Merkel and deport the refugees to Muslim lands, where they can live under their 7th century nightmare, and leave the West alone and safer.

    Merkel says love and compassion will defeat ISIS. You go girl! Hopefully the German people will vote this crazy bitch out.

      Jan 4, 2017 at 5:00 pm

      Sky–I guess that Merkel’s comments fit right in with Kerry. That a/c’s and refrigerators are a greater threat then ISIS & terrorists resort to terrorism because they don’t have good health care benefits, etc.

      Makes as much sense.

    The events of the night were described as “quiet” by police in a statement, and as “normal” by a spokesman for the city government.

    the above is form the article.

    Si, I gather, it quiet and normal for 1,000 people ( ?-possilbe question if these should be classified as homo sapiens or something else) ( at least in my mind) to scream, and throw fireworks at police and set fire to a historic church.

    I guess that is the new normal and quiet in Germany.

    Let them keep it- there. Don’t need it in the US

    1,000 Muslims screaming “Allahu akbar” set fire to Germany’s oldest church on New Year’s Eve
    …………………….

    Yes–I sent this story in (others may have done so, as well).

    Here are ravening Muslims on a major Infidel holiday, declaring that their foul deity is “greater”, while trying to burn down Germany’s oldest church, St. Reinold’s Church in Dortmund–targeting Christianity and Germany’s historic heritage.

    Here is what we almost lost:

    The Germans obviously drew the wrong conclusions from their past. They don’t owe the muzzies anything. The muzzies talk about a moral obligation which isn’t justified by anything. All they know is violence, demanding and imposing sharia. Muzzies are disgusting scumbags. They don’t belong in any civilization.

    I am speechless. First the islamist attack homeless people, then women and children, then police Then they try to burn down a historic church. 1,000 men is a military attack group. This was an islamic attack. If Germany does not wake up, then Germany is finished.

      Read the actual story, David.

      The only aspect it really questions is whether the church was set on fire deliberately, or if it was recklessness–and that the church is the oldest in Dortmund, but not in all of Germany.

      The story actually *confirms* Muslims screaming “Allahu Akbar!” and flying the ISIS flag–but just asserts rather lamely that this can be interpreted as completely innocent.

        We do have to be very careful in the re-reporting of these news items. As originally published on JihadWatch, it does appear misleading, if we are to take seriously the contrary accounts issued by the German police.

        The liberal left are very quick to smear these reports as extremist, or ultra-right, so we do need a credibility to JihadWatch’s reporting which is unassailable, if at all possible.
