Germany: Six Muslim migrants arrested over plot for jihad massacre at Christmas market

Nov 21, 2017 7:49 am By Robert Spencer

“There are reports the target may have been a Christmas market in the north western town of Essen on December 19, but this has not been confirmed by authorities. On the same date last year, Tunisian ISIS fanatic Anis Amri hijacked a truck to murder 12 revellers at the packed Breitscheidplatz Christmas market.”

Jihad mass murder: it’s getting to be an annual Christmas tradition in Germany. And it’s not just for Christmas, either. Much, much more is to come.

“Six Syrian ‘ISIS plotters’ are arrested in Germany over plan to ‘attack Christmas market on the anniversary of Berlin atrocity,'” by Julian Robinson and Allan Hall, MailOnline, November 21, 2017 (thanks to Mick):

German police have arrested six alleged ISIS plotters amid fears they were planning an attack on a Christmas market on the anniversary of last year’s atrocity in Berlin.

The Syrian men were arrested during raids involving 500 officers in the towns of Kassel, Hannover, Essen and Leipzig.

Prosecutors say they were plotting a co-ordinated attack using ‘weapons and explosives’.

There are reports the target may have been a Christmas market in the north western town of Essen on December 19, but this has not been confirmed by authorities.

On the same date last year, Tunisian ISIS fanatic Anis Amri hijacked a truck to murder 12 revellers at the packed Breitscheidplatz Christmas market.

The six suspects were identified as Syrian citizens aged between 20 and 28 who arrived in Germany as asylum-seekers between December 2014 and September 2015. Their names were withheld under strict German privacy laws.

The men, who are allegedly members of ISIS, are accused of ‘having prepared an attack with weapons and explosives on a public target in Germany.’…

Concrete blocks have been installed around Christmas markets at several central squares in the capital this year before the festive season opens in a couple of weeks….

Domestic security officials estimate there are some 10,000 radical Islamists in Germany, with roughly 1,600 among them suspected of being capable of violence.

    when you think of the cost in money and lives that EUROPE has expended in trying to ” coddle” islamaniacs, it certainty makes more sense just to deport those who are fundamentalists and in favor of sharia law, back to any of the various crapistans in the muslim world rather than allow Europe to be turned into CRAPISTAN WEST!

      Why haven’t you caught on yet that there is no such thing as ‘moderate Islam’? There is ONLY Islam!

    • John Forbes says

      Nov 22, 2017 at 5:54 am

      PEOPLE, YOU MUST STOP ASKING FOR DEPORTATION! IT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!
      THE EU HAS MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE & THERE ARE NO PROVISIONS FOR IT & LEGALLY ALL OF THE WESTERN GOVERNMENTS ARE NOT SET UP TO DO THIS!

      THE ONLY WAY TO HAVE ANY CHANCE IS TO POLICE THE MOSQUES AS THE UAE ( UNITED ARAB EMIRATES SAYS & DOES)
      LOCK UP HATE PREACHERS & START NEGOTIATING TO CHANGE THE HATE TEACHINGS!

      ALL OF THE REST IS JUST CHEAP USELESS TALK!

      ALSO, STOP ISLAMIC IMMIGRATION & HERE AGAIN THERE IS GREAT OPPOSITION & NO SYSTEM IN PLACE

      HARD TIMES AHEAD & MANY DEATHS AS WE CONTINUE TO IGNORE THE WAR BEING WAGED AGAINST US !!,

      SOMEHOW THOUGH WE NEED TO INSIST THAT THOSE WHO CONTINUALLY TO DENY THAT THERE IS A WAR ARE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AS THE DEATH TOLL RISES & IT CERTAINLY WILL !!

        The writer is correct. Recently German police hit a mosque in NW Germany that had a stash of more than 100 assault rifles. It is tome to stop all Muslim migration and it is time local law enforcement (including state officials) take defensive measures and raid mosques! Resistance should be met with shoot to kill measures. That’s better than trying to prosecute, jail or deport offenders!

    On the sixth day of Christmas
    Mohammad sent to me:
    Six Jihadis shooting,
    Sura Five enacted,
    Four injured screaming,
    Three French connected,
    Two bombers bombing,
    and lots of bullets passing by me.

      Yeah–while there were Hijabbed Muslimahs “celebrating Christmas”, there were no bearded Jihadists. How “inclusive” was that? Of course they are angry enough to blow up a Christmas market! sarc/off

    Muslims hate Christmas more than other Christians celebrations because it celebrates the Incarnation of God… the worst blasphemy in Islam. To celebrate OPENLY is a breach of discriminatory SHARIA LAW.

    Muslims have a duty as vigilantism to PUNISH the open blasphemers and using violence to make them reconsider their blasphemous Christian ways.

    This is the way Islam has always done it in Muslim-majority countries.

    • WorkingClassPost says

      Nov 21, 2017 at 10:59 am

      It’s strange how they are so against celebrating the birth of Jesus, yet they’re OK with travelling miles to go waddling round a stupid old stone in the kaaba.

      Round and round they go, again and again, seven times and then it’s kissy kissy and cuddle the rock if they get ‘lucky’.

      Very strange, for sure.

      A rational being could be forgiven for thinking that islam didn’t make any sense at all.

      • Benedict says

        Nov 21, 2017 at 12:04 pm

        The religion of Muslims is so pathetic that it is almost embarrassing to have to criticize it. The monomaniacal, self-invented circulation around a black stone as the apogee of religious devotion is manufacturing madness on a worldwide scale, and it is a question politicians should consider, if it would not be an act of mercy and compassion to blow the stone to smithereens.

      Angela M didn’t do enough for her new guests. She disrespected their feelings when she did not declare the cancellation of Christmas throughout the country. That was so insensitive of her.

  7. Shmoovie says

    Parisian gov’t cancels their lovely Christmas market and lies like rugs to the people about the reasons.
    As if a single citizen, left or right, accepts the fiction invented to explain the cancellation.

    “Domestic security officials estimate there are some 10,000 radical Islamists in Germany, with roughly 1,600 among them suspected of being capable of violence”
    If they could snap their fingers and all 10,000 would magically disappear they would immediately be replaced by 20,000 more — that are already in the country.

      Well the Islamic State said before it happened they would smuggle their fighters in with the refugees, of course it was going to happen. This is all on Merkel’s head, no wonder she can’t gather a majority in Parliament because even the other politicians don’t like her.

    About that Christmas jihad attack , last year, in the city of Berlin ,Germany The god of Islam likes it when non-Muslims [Kafirs] die . About the god of Islam ,the television Imam Suliman Satari said “Annihilate the Infidels… Allah count them and kill them, to the last one and don’t leave even one.” Furthermore Imam Abu Hamza Al-Masri said “What makes Allah happy? Allah is happy when Kafiers get killed. [1]
    . The above words of these Imams reflect the example of Islam’s prophet and the teachings of the Quran. “Muhammad now fell upon them [the Jews] slew all the men, nine hundred of them…”[2]
    Moreover, the Quran reads “When ye encounter the unbelievers strike off their heads, until ye have made great slaughter among them. Verily if Allah pleased, He could take vengeance on them without your assistance, but He commandeth you to fight His Battles.” 47:4
    In short, these Imams and their murderous prophet with their bloody Quran show the world what Islam really is. After all, Jesus did teach “by their fruits you will know them.” Matthew 7:20. [NKJV]

    Munich’s “solution”: instead of having “Christmas” market, make a “winter” market, call it additionally “we all” and draw the cute snowmen with burqas and arabian headgear and muslim white caps…

    https://www.tollwood.de/wir-alle

    btw it seems it’s on the same place where the biggest Oktoberfest event happens.

    Really worrying.

    • gravenimage says

      Nov 21, 2017 at 2:40 pm

      Renaming it a “Winter Market”–disgusting as this is–would not help. The Mohammedans know what it is, and how the Infidels regard it.

      • jayell says

        Nov 22, 2017 at 4:55 am

        They already tried that in (I believe?) Birmingham UK (or some similar den of infestation) when it was officially named it ‘Winterval’. Actually, it’s just taking things back to their pagan origin as a midwinter knees-up to offset the gloom at that time of year when you’re living 50+ degrees
        north in the northern hemisphere. Talking about places called ‘Birmingham’, would they do this sort of thing in Birmingham, Alabama?

  11. Walter Sieruk says

    Nov 21, 2017 at 1:35 pm

    Merkel is as guilty as sin regarding taking part of the blame for that Islamic terror truck attack in Berlin, last year. For her PC politics and polices led to that murderous jihad murder disaster. Furthermore, is should be made clear that the “holy book” of Islam, the Quran, [the Koran] gives instruction in the ways of the violent and deadly jihad. To give only one out of many examples of this from the Koran is Sura 47:4. Which teaches “Whenever you encounter the unbelievers strike off their heads until you make a great slaughter among them…” Let’s face it, using a large truck as a weapon, as the Muslim /jihadist did, can sure make a greater “slaughter among them” than a sword can.

      Nice things like safety for the people, democracy, and civilized values–as well as lovely traditions like Christmas markets.

      The only question is why anyone would consider this a difficult choice to make…

    Hey, but I confirm that there WILL be massacre and all kind of criminal Islamic activities at Christmas every where.
    ISLAM IS CRIMINAL and must be treated as such if we are serious about safety and peaceful living for the “infidels”.
    Wake up folks and kick out those leaders who are sleeping with the Muslims, they are traitors

    Nov 22, 2017 at 8:24 pm

    You realize that the six Syrians were let go today for “lack of credible evidence against them”. Merkel is trying to appease the Jihadists just in case new elections are called. Any major incident and the AfD could become the second largest fraction in the German Parliament!
