The perpetrator’s name is given as “Evan H.,” but given that he is Iraqi, that is unlikely to be his actual given name. The name “Evan” also suggests that he is a Christian, but Iraqi Christians don’t generally have names like “Evan” either; it is much more likely that this perpetrator is a Muslim migrant who took the name “Evan” in order to get along more easily in German society. (Another remote possibility is that the German establishment media is calling him this to obscure more migrant crime and protect Merkel.) One reason for concluding that he is a Muslim is that he and his friends were clearly targeting the officers — one of the slapped the victim’s friend in the face just before the stabbing — and the Islamic State (ISIS) has issued calls for Muslims to stab soldiers in the West. The Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:
So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves. If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him….
“Emergency surgery! Officer candidate stabbed in the new town,” translated from “Not-OP! Offizieranwärter in der Neustadt niedergestochen,” by Sebastian Tangel, Der Tag, July 27, 2018 (thanks to Searchlight Germany):
Dresden – The officer candidates Eric L. and Jens Ole P. (both 20) wanted to celebrate at a student party in the “Kiezklub” on the Louisenstraße.
A devious knife attack ended the evening fun. Eric landed on the operating table during the night. The alleged stabber Evan H. (28) has been on trial since Thursday.
Evan H. and two buddies of his had been previously noticed by a “Kietzklub” waitress on the night of the crime in in mid-February.
“The three were so loud,” the 18-year-old recalled in court yesterday.
On the dance floor, one of the trio suddenly gave Jens Ole two slaps. Officer candidate Eric (20) wanted to protect comrade, who is his only 5 feet, four inches tall.
“Is good now!” he said. Evan H. (28) is said to have intervened and Eric pushed him from the dance floor. “Nothing is good,” the Iraqi replied.
Suddenly Eric felt a slight pain in the abdomen. “After a few minutes, I then realized that I was bleeding from the stomach.” He was apparently hit by knife wounds.
Jens Ole pulled the injured person behind the counter and tried to stop the bleeding: “I was afraid that my comrade would die away under my hands!” In emergency surgery in the hospital, doctors struggled for four hours until the bleeding was stopped.
On Thursday, Evan H. remained silent. The verdict will follow.

Time for public executions to be brought back, including the use of Swine products!

To me this possibility is most likely. In Germany it is standard that the given name of a criminal gets changed in the newspapers.

Yes–quite possible.

Just like the media persistently called the three year old kid who washed up on the Turkish beach a few years ago to whip up more world wide sympathy for the european “migrant crisis” of 2015 “Alan” Kurdi, very disingenuous, the media did so to make the story more palatable to the masses. His name was AYLAN, not Alan. The far left media knows no depths too low not to sink.

When the facts are changed, it is no longer news; it is propaganda.

“Evan H”, really? As long as German media is spinning the man’s identity, might I suggest, “Dances With Knives”, or, “He is not dangerous, he is in danger”?
Immigration is bringing many daily peaceful events to Germany including the irony of the anti-racism racial brawl between migrants:
