The German public may soon not know who their jihadist enemies are, nor be informed about risk Muslim migrants pose. They will not know how common it is to be attacked by a group of those who believe that it is their right to sexually assault infidels in the name of religion. It’s all over for Germany if this level of censorship is adopted. It will be a windfall for Islamic supremacists and jihadists. Citizens will be sitting ducks while the catastrophic results of Angela Merkel’s reckless immigration policies will be hidden from view, freeing her from any accountability to the public.
“German Media Watchdog Instructs Press to Censor Ethnicity and Religion in Reports”, Breitbart, March 22, 2017:
BERLIN (AP) — Germany’s media regulator has revised its code of conduct on reporting whether crime suspects belong to an ethnic or religious minority after complaints the previous guidance was unclear.
The German Press Council – a voluntary, industry-run body – says information about a person’s ethnicity shouldn’t be published “unless there is a justified public interest in doing so.”
The wording agreed Wednesday replaces previous guidance that said such details should only be published if there was a link between a person’s ethnicity or religion and the crime.
Numerous German media outlets complained that the old code was hard to interpret during a breaking news situation…..
Mickey says
Merkel definitely needs to be ousted. She has changed Germany into a cesspool of crime, criminals, Islamists, pedophiles, and so on. Why is it the leaders of these countries will not put their citizens before the so-called refugees or illegals that are invading them? Stupidity is running amuck with these liberal socialists like Merkel, Trudeau and Reinfeldt. These leaders are seriously delusional and care nothing for their citizens, as well as Obama who put Islamists and Illegals ahead of the citizens of the United States.
berserker says
Schulz is worse and he is leading the polls. Merkel could not have acted alone. She had plenty of support from politicians and regular Germans.
andra says
She not only has support in Germany today. She also had predecessors in politics. She is guilty but not the only gulity politician.

If german voters put her (or the spd) back in charge in the coming election, then the true problem lies with german voters. They reap the rewards of their votes.
andra says
I am pretty sure they will win the elections. It is not comprehensible, but it is what has happened all over Europe within the last months: Great Britain (May instead of Farange), Austria ( v.d.Bellen instead of Huber), Netherlands (Rutte instead of Wilders).
I just cannot understand my fellow Europeans. Why do they vote for submission and terror and war?
In Germany the AfD is very self-destructive and by the time of the vote they will be a total mess, I´m sure of that. Anyway, I will vote for them however idiotic they might appear.
umbra says
Your prediction will most likely be correct. The perfect storm (disaster in this case) appears unavoidable. Until effects of it is fully felt (years, decades or even generations later), the full remification of certain policies/choices shal remain obscured for the population. At which point, it may be too late. That said, Europe (at least parts therein like germany, Netherlands, belgium, Sweden, france) will serve as a warm to those with open eyes and ears.
If you truly wish to fix the problem at home, then start with the education system. In the US and other English speaking nations, the problem use to start at middle/high school. In recent years however, even primary schools have been infiltrated. Cultural relativism have been drummed into children mind (indoctrination) with nonsense like “all cultures are equal” that is used to supports the present multicultural social paradigm. Unfortunately, empirical evidence contradicts this hypothesis. Put some common sense (this invariably will include self- and cultural-preservation) in the children of your country, then when they mature and vote, a sensible government will prevail. This will take 20 to 50 years to accomplish. Better get to.
Phil Copson says
Unfortunately there was never any chance of Nigel Farage becoming Prime Minister. For one thing, he isn’t even in Parliament !
Under our electoral system with it’s “first past the post system”, each constituency elects a Member of Parliament, the party with most MPs forms the government, and their party leader becomes the Prime Minister.
There is no way for an “outsider” to run for the post of Prime Minister.
UKIP – the United Kingdom Independence Party – received over 4 million votes, but as these were spread across the country and didn’t amount to a majority in the individual constituencies, UKIP has only one member of Parliament despite being the party whose growing popularity forced then PM David Cameron to offer a referendum on EU membership.
By contrast, in Scotland which has a much smaller population than England, the number of voters in each constituency is correspondingly also far smaller.
The result of this is the utterly ludicrous situation that the Scottish National Party returned no fewer than 56 MPs to the UK Parliament despite winning fewer than 1.5 million votes, whereas Nigel Farage’s UK Independence Party received 4 million votes and has only one, and even he was a sitting Conservative MP who changed parties.
umbra says
@phil
The UK system is strange, but perhaps better than that of the Netherlands or Sweden. In these two countries, there it never any realistic chance that government of majority can be formed and laws passed without a fruitcake (3+ parties) of coalition. In the UK at present, the conservatives (regardless of how one may view them) at least has a governing majority that can pursue it own uncompromised party policies through parliament.

Andra, and others
In Germany, like in most other European countries as well as in large chunks of N America the MSM is completely infiltrated with the Black Block, they have announced at the end of the sixties that they will march into the institutions, Media, Judiciary & Executive, Clergy and Arts. They have done so. The ‘Black Block’ is the brew consisting of the successors to the school of Frankfurt, Antifas etc, see also Daniel Cohn-Bendit, Herbert Marcuse and now Noam Chomsky. Another significant part are the internationalists, heavily financed and organized by G. Soros. Both sections cooperate closely. Additionally there are the Muslims, regarded by both factions/fractions as useful idiots (the international proletariat, imported) whilst the Muslims regard them the same way. Another group are the various NGOs of what one could call “international capitalists”, i.e., big money. In the US for instance 1% holds over 80% of the wealth… That group has frequently similar interests to the others, primarily that means no borders and weak governments. All of them are in the media – they have the money.
The frogs will wake up when it gets too hot, humans aren’t frogs.
So, the media will manipulate a lot of people, voters. We in the anti-jihad groups do our best ????) to support their effort by being as confusing as we can be. A newbie cheesed off by all this, looking for alternatives and coming to one of our groups, finds that we call the left winng, right up to the anarchists “Nazis” and “Islamofascists” whilst the very newbies, who are looking for a way out with us, have been labelled similar by the MSM. When they come to us, they get the same label from us – and leave.
And you wonder why the left is winning the election? They have no real opposition, that’s why. Schulz’ star is sinking rather rapidly. Still, the election result is fairly predictable, unless Gauland and von Storch put Petry in her place.
Trump comprehended that, that’s why he fought the election campaign on twitter, and the alternative media – and won! He stood his place, he didn’t shout ‘Nazi, Nazi’ every five minutes, he didn’t shout it at all! Instead, he was called a Nazi, didn’t matter, the people had enough and voted for him. Here in Europe? If someone is called a Nazi they start immediately to whine, to cringe and to apologize: “No, no, no, no, please, please, please, believe me I am not. I assure you….” And keep on apologizing and apologizing and apolo… F…g idiots! Instead of ignoring that and simply getting on with their programs, as Trump has done!
What’s the pointing of typing…..
Jan says
I’m sure the SPD will win again, this time under Schultz, an even bigger traitor to our values and culture than Merkel. A VERY DANGEROUS MAN !!! He will finalize the destruction of Germany. But as was said here already, the german voter does not deserve anything better.
Umbra : your analysis is perfect. It is our educational system, that was wilfully modified a multitude of times by people opreating behind the scene, that is responsable for why voters are making the wrong choices today. They have been carefully brainwashed from a young age onward to turn them into politicallt correct zombies. Sweden is the prime example of this method. You will find it extremely difficult to locate a swede that will confirm the disastrous state their country is in at the moment and that will admit they have an immigration problem! Youtube features an interesting video from Tim Pool intervewing a swedish psychologist that explains how social justice leads to censorship. The guy’s voice and image have been scrambled since he says he will risk being prosecuted by the PC establisment for expressing his opinion. Watch here : https://youtu.be/Mo2PIkMysJQ
The trauma resulting from the mass extermination of jews by the german nazis during the second world war is still haunting us and is now responsable for the destruction of the whole of Europe. Eropean superpower Germany doesn’t want to take any chances on being associated with any resemblance of racism. Human rights organizations and foreign and local muslim entities have discovered this weakness and are exploiting it everyday to push their program of destruction of the west profiting from the fact that our citizens have been deprived of freedom of speech to speak out about any misdoings perpetrated by the invaders of our countries.
Spencer Warren says
The Germans have lost any sense of manliness and identity. Hitler’s revenge. They are revealing they don’t really share Anglo-American governing values.
Adrian says
So first, there needed to be a “link” to the crime… but now even if there is a link, there must also be a “justified public interest”?…
Wow… Big Brother in plain sight in Germany… Alles kaput!

There are seniors here in the US that don’t have access to the internet who still think that the MSM is not biased. I suspect there are people like that all over the world. They will be harmed by this edict, since they will not know that that the new refugee center down the street has now put them in grave danger.
no_one says
I agree. I know American seniors who cry for muslim refugees.
Adrian Johnson says
I used to be one of them until I got a computer and learned to surf the net.
Carolyne says
I never cried for Muslim refugees. I’d kick them in the butt if I had a chance.
andra says
It does not really matter wehter they change the press codex. It has been Long since that the media do not mention the religious/ideological or ethnical background. Those who want to know only have to read between the lines and think themselves.
By the way, if a traitor has a German passport you always get to know.
berserker says
Always good to have a former communist for jobs such as censorship.
duh swami says
My long dead German ancestors are watching from on high…They don’t like what they see and will soon file a formal complaint with Angela…
Lee Hicks says
Dhimmi actions like this are why we see dishonest descriptions of attackers, which include things like, “Asian man attacks…”, or, “The shooter shouted Allah Akbar…his motives are unclear…”, or even after an Islamic attack, the focus is placed on how unsafe Muslims claim to feel.
It appears that the evangelizing effects from Saudi Arabia are paying off, as non-Muslims continue to give a virtual free pass to Islam, to those who would willingly attack and kill them.
The West has to find their backbone again, casting out such poor leaders as Merkel, continue to betray the people they pretend to protect.
Islam, ALL of Islam, is an avowed enemy to the rest of the world, as it’s own authoritative texts (The Koran, Hadith, and Sira) plainly state. We must not make the same mistake that the world did with Hitler, when they refused to believe the evil intentions that he plainly laid out when he wrote Mein Kampf.
Moderate Muslims are a fiction, and the small minority who claim to follow Allah, and who genuinely reject his warfare of Jihad, would be considered to be apostates by him, worthy of death. Plainly stated, Islam is overtly evil, a corrupt religious/political system that openly displays the evil traits of Satan himself, in the guise of Allah.
A worldwide wake-up call is far overdue.
Jan says
I remember thart shortly after moving to France in 1979 I read an article in one of the french magazines (Paris Match?) that big oil money was used to organise secret meetings on infiltration of wester Europe. . That is almost 40 years ago!
It starts to look like the money invested paid off and the operation has become a success.
Dawn says
What is so wrong with naming names and calling it what it is, its Islamic Terrorism. Stop covering it up and protecting them . Protect your people. If you aren’t going to do your job then step down and let someone else do it properly.
Oliver says
I am sure that Germany being Germany that if a perp is a Jew or devout Christian his or her religion would be noted. In the public interest. Of course
somehistory says
Agreement here. Identify if white, church-goer, or attends local synagogue, because the public needs to know in order to watch out for the next white church-goer or Jewish family member.
Oliver says
Thanks for agreeing.
Germany, being Germany (as noted in past JW blogs:): police gave bullhorns to Muslims to scream anti-Semitic propaganda.
A judge does not charge a Muslim with a hate crime (or, as I recall, any crime) for bombing a synagogue- as “he was following his religion”.
Personally, if another Muslim drives a truck into a German market, and kills people, i would shed not a tear. Same with France and Belgium.
Incidentally, (mentioned before by a few others in JW)- read Obermayer- (title either Soldier For Freedom or something similar- excellent book about Europe after DDay. Especially France.
D Trump says
I’m confused. This “German Press Council” is a voluntary run organization that is issuing guidelines as to what the press can report about terrorist attacks?
In other words this council is saying it’s illegal and considered hate speech if the press mentions that they are muslims?
Where does this council get its authority from to issue this absurd rule?
If it’s not a government agency then why does anyone even pay attention to them?
Sounds to me like they need a hard smack across the face.
DFD says
Actually, it’s the other way round. They have now more freedom to name them than before. Not much, but some improvement.
See Junge Freiheit: https://jungefreiheit.de/politik/deutschland/2017/presserat-aendert-richtlinie-zur-herkunftsnennung/ Though, in German.
mousey says
Yes, dfd that’s how i read it too. What christine says does not follow from the Berlin quote. And, the end of the berlin quote, which was left out, makes that more clear:
“They argued that withholding such information left readers searching for it on questionable social media sites and stirred conspiracy theories of media cover-ups of migrant crimes.”
The reporters wanted the go ahead to give the information of ethnicity or religion, and were granted that go ahead.
DFD says
Indeed so Mousey. Incidentally, the “Dresdner Sächsische Zeitung” gives a damn about the recommendations of the “Deutsche Presserat”. Since summer 2016 they name, where the name is available, the perpetrator and the perpetrators ethnic and national origin.
That cannot be legally prevented. BTW, it increases their sales…
R Cole says
You can take the girl out of communism, but you can’t take communism out of the girl!!
Next, reporters will be among the disappeared – those viewed as enemies of Merkel’s migrant policy.
The new Merkel dictat should read – there’s been no increase in crime and or terrorism since the migrant crisis and millions of unvetted migrants were admitted.
And her slogan, “We can do it!” – will now read “We have done it!! – and proclaim her migrant policy a success.
All to the standing ovation of smiling German people [making little claps] – with a big screen behind flashing between images of Merkel and Kim Jong Un.
::
It’s a lesson in power. Merkel serves at the consent of the people.
The German people can either allow Merkel to do as she wishes and end up like Sweden, where everyone is afraid to speak. Or they can say enough is enough. [Maybe set term limits for their new leader – two’s enough!]
I feel that Merkel’s position on [mass] Islamic immigration is weaker than it was when Obama was in the White House. And she wants to get reelected. Let’s put this down to desperation.
nicu says
People ARE afraid to speak ! If a Muslim commit a crime on you he always gets no sentence – if you defend yourself : you get charged . So people don#t report crimes anymore . FB is watched by our BND ( German CIA ) – if you speak the truth about Muslims police rings at your door ! If you report Muslim hate comments NOTHING happens .
Keys says
Merkel’s slogan “We can do it!” reminds me of Obama’s slogan “Yes, we can!”
Now all she has to do is copy another Obama slogan: “Chains we can believe in!”
nicu says
Here we go again : they do that in my county for 30 years ! TV still ” wonders about the motive ” as always — not a word about that f*** muslim!!!!
But it’s worse under MÜrkül of course means since 11 years !
Cthulhu says
So “Polish driver… truck with Polish plates… probably drunk…” and so on, but “Asian person… motive unknown…”. Remember, no ethnicity and religion unless it’s Polish, Russian, Hungarian or Romanian Christian.
Baucent says
The Left wing media establishment is a disgrace. Favouring the hurt feelings of muslims over the public’s right to know the truth. This will become more common across Europe as the Jihad and crime attacks by muslim migrants increase, as they will. But people aren’t fools, they will read between the lines.
Ted says
We had a Patriot go into a Mosque in Quebec a few months ago and he gave to them what they say they are going to give to us. The authorities say he has mental problems, I think they are scared to tell the truth about him. I believe he had reached a point that, not out of a phobia but a fear of what these people in the Mosque teach and call on Allah for, he couldn’t bide his time. These authorities are scared because this young man has demonstrated to them what can happen when they allow a supposed religion to declare that their way will ultimately be ours. Vive, Quebec,Libre.
Ted says
This is what they want, this is what they get. I never asked for anyone to go in and kill them, but I am not prepared to lie down and have their Barbaric, Discusting , Jew, Homosexual, and Canadian hating bullshit stuffed down my throat. Trudeau sits in a Montreal Mosque with his white robes and his Muslim brothers. What a paradox that the incompetent Premier of Ontario Katherine Wyyne a Lesbian and a Female too boot, goes to a Mosque and has to sit in the back with a rag on her head. What a fool, does she not know how she is viewed in the Koran. I am a proud Canadian, Immigrated from England with my Scotish father and Canadian mother at the age of 2 and have been here for 68 years. My father spent 4 years in the R.A.F. to ensure no Mein Kamf was forced on us. I am not a proud Infidel and take great offence at being called that. I am a proud Canadian.
