German media admits: Man who made Hitler salute at Chemnitz rally is actually a Leftist infiltrator

Sep 6, 2018 8:50 am By Robert Spencer

It has long been charged that Antifa operatives enter the crowds of pro-freedom rallies and say and do things in order to discredit those rallies. In the protests in Chemnitz against mass Muslim migration, this man made a Hitler salute, which was picked up by the international media as proof that the rallies were full of neo-Nazis. But this man has now been unmasked as a supporter of the Red Army Faction, a Communist terrorist group. Even the German media is admitting it. But it is unlikely there will follow any retractions from the media outside the country, which is too invested in the mass migration imperative to take notice of inconvenient facts.

“A sensation! Media admit: The Hitler salute man of Chemnitz is a ‘Red Army Faction’ sympathizer,” Searchlight Germany, September 6, 2018:

…Now it has been proven: The man who made the headlines with the Hitler salute at the Chemnitz demonstration and discredited the entire protest is a RAF sympathizer – and thus quite obviously a left-wing extremist. He carries the abbreviation of the terrorist group on the back of his right hand. This is obviously not a right-wing extremist. The rumours of infiltrated provocateurs are thus receiving new confirmation. At first, the RAF logo on the hand was described by the mainstream media as a photomontage created by right-wing extremists. This has now turned out to be wrong. The editorial offices of “Rheinischer Post” and “T-Online” apologize today for this mistake and make it clear: The picture is real and not a fake! Thus it is obvious that the man with the raised right arm is an admirer of the left-wing terrorist “Red Army Faction”. This fits badly with the world view of a neo-Nazis. And it raises the question of what is really behind the Hitler salute action. It was striking from the very beginning that the man with the hooded sweater separated himself from the other demonstrators and posed in front of the photographers with the Hitler salute. It also remained a mystery why policemen in combat uniforms did not arrest the man. Was there perhaps a reference to allowing the man to do so? Finally, he provided the pictures journalists needed to defame the protest of Monday the 27th of August as a neo-Nazi demonstration. A group of 10,000 people, mainly a cross-section of the Chemitz [sic] population, had taken part. So far it is not clear who this man is. The police say it is “irrelevant” to them whether the man is a right-wing or a left-wing man. It is crucial that the gesture is punishable. So no clarification can be expected from this side. However, it has been finally cleared up that the report that the RAF tattoo is a fake is not true. T-Online admits: “We called a photo of one of the Hitler salute hands a photomontage. That’s wrong. After we checked the present material as well as further photographs again more exactly, we came to the conclusion: On the hand of the demonstrator pictured, the characters ‘RAF’ can actually be seen.”And the newspaper “Rheinische Post” writes: “In an earlier version of the article it was said that a RAF tattoo on the hand of an alleged right-wing extremist demonstrator had turned out to be a photomontage. We have referred to research by the online portal watson.de. In the meantime, however, the portal has corrected his report: The man had indeed carried such a tattoo on his hand. We regret the misrepresentation and have removed the passage from our article as well.”…

    But Merkel and her speaker do not apologize for pretending that there have been far right mob in Chemnitz chasing foreigners.
    The Minister-President of Saxony, the general attorney of Saxony, the police of Chemnitz and a local newspaper all claimed that there were no chases, but Merkel lies and says that she has got video proof. She is unable to present these videos because they do not exist.
    Merkel should resign immedeately, because she has ruined Germany´s reputation too bad by lying about her own people.

    The LEFTARDS have fairly admitted it now: their REAL TARGET is NATIONALISM of any and every kind.

    They actually couldn’t care less about Muslims, for in reality, the Left only wants to destroy every culture it sees.

    The Left sees Islam and uses it as a WRECKING BALL against all European cultures.

    The “IMPERATIVE” is thus to DESTROY European culture and MASS MUSLIM MIGRATION is an important TOOL in the DEMOLITION of European identities.

    For that reason, EVERY EUROPEAN IDENTITY and EUROPEAN CULTURE must be DEMOLISHED and SWEPT AWAY and they are letting the Muslims do it for them so their plan is not OBVIOUS.

      There is certainly nothing new Mortimer for if you remember the left used these same tactics during some of the Tea Party rallies. They claimed that the Tea Party was racist even while a black man was speaking on its behalf. I don’t know about you or anyone else reading JW but I am sick and tired of the expression “far right.” It seems that anyone to the right of Alinsky or Maduro is far right bordering on being a member of the Klu Klux Klan while we are the most pro-Israel and strongest supporters of the Jewish people everywhere. Even Jesus Christ would be labeled as a racist in today’s political rabbit hole.

        True. People who are liberals for women’s rights and gay rights are deemed “far right” if they object to Muslims raping and murdering us. Just insane.

    A typical,cunningly devious Bolshevik{Leftard} trick;sending an agent provocateur to sabotage a protest.

    What better way to undermine and hijack a legitimate protest than to arrange to make it look like nazis or violent thuggery is involved.A few carefully staged photos or a few thrown bricks will suffice.

    why,That’s just like what those virtue-signalling Leftard thugs,the antifart Fascists do.

    And clearly the culprit is not the brightest bulb on the Leftard Tree:he kindly gave it away with his RAF logo.Danke!

    Like most Leftards these days he should be taken into care,in a safe,snowflake space with medical professionals to treat him for the tragic disease of Leftardism that is sweeping the planet.

      I hate to tell you but everybody does it, left and right, Dems and Reps. Some more than others perhaps but it’s too common to get very excited about. In Nixon’s day it was called “rat fucking”.

        Rarely, you may be thinking of Project Veritas. What they did with Planned Parenthood was not the same. They went undercover to expose a truth. If they had posed as PP-affiliated abortion providers looking to illegally sell baby parts in order to smear PP, then that would be deceit of the same kind.

        • Rarely says

          Sep 6, 2018 at 1:52 pm

          No. I wasn’t thinking of that or any undercover operation to root out crime.
          Smear campaigns and “rat f**king” are common in election campaigns as are all sorts of dirty tricks.
          Protests are often infiltrated by those oppose the protest.
          Clandestine activities are very common – sometimes by individuals, sometimes orchestrated by an opposing group. Sometimes to get info, sometimes to discredit and sometimes to cause a stir. This is just one obvious example.

      No surprises, Mac. It’s what they do, from Auckland to Amsterdam.

      BTW, I replied to your comment on the Macron ‘No true Frenchmen’ thread, and also responded to old Buffo’s temper tantrum. Been absent from JW on account of ‘real world’ counter-jihad activities.

        Sep 7, 2018 at 9:33 am

        I hope your activities bear fruit. Thanks for givin me the head up on the old post. When I check the block on update to post I git ALL updates which flood my computer, so I just go back twice a day or so and drag through posts and respond. That Maroon article I punch off yesterday.
        .
        I was surprised why that individual brought up General Walker. His incident/life contributes 3 to 4 HARD dots that I know of and about 4 more soft dots that I can’t say are most probably true. Do you have any idea how he thought that strengthen his argument against JFK Conspiracies?
        .
        I do NOT want to disrail the thread but I have always thought JFK was a conspiracy and it was done by Castro and hushed up because our Intel Agency didn’t want it known that they had about half a dozen serious assassination attempts against Castro and a dozen more that were not even close.
        .
        The reason THIS is important to JW is that the same cabal of Globalist who wacked JFK are STILL callin the shots, including the Isamification of the world and the destruction of Western Civilization!
        .
        As for your Benghazi thought it was to wack Stevens, I will only buy it if it was to eradicate the entire cell and ALL the people/material/info associated with it. It is WAY to easy to git one person or a car full of people.
        /
        Anytime you believe I’m off base and goin on a tangent please give me your opinion. I got a good amount of real world experiences, but most ideas/theories are based on inductive reasoning after sifting through ALL the lies THEY fed us.
        .

        • StellaSaidSo says

          Sep 7, 2018 at 10:38 am

          You’re right, Mac, the Walker reference did nothing to enhance the old boy’s argument, but what can you expect from someone who thinks bullets can do U-turns? In this caper you get the occasional pompous ass who doesn’t like being challenged. Bereft of anything resembling a sound argument, they invariably resort to ad hominem attacks and utter irrelevancies.

          I agree, the same cabal of globalists and other criminals who whacked JFK are still at it today. They whacked John Junior, too. Libya was about taking the lid off Africa for the globalists, and stealing Gaddafi’s gold, but, IMO, Benghazi was mainly about getting rid of Stevens. If it wasn’t, then his requests for help would, surely, have been met? There was plenty of time. Maybe Hillary figured ‘Why go out of your way to organise a hit, when you can sit on your hands and let someone else do it for you?’

          I actually don’t spend a lot of time pondering the question of who did what on 9/11, but, like the official narrative about the Kennedy assassination, the official 9/11 report leaves too many questions unanswered. Given the long years of friendship between the Bush and bin Laden families, I think it unlikely, for example, that Bush Snr had no idea that something was brewing.

          Like you, Mac, I have learned to recognise familiar patterns. Joining the dots certainly gets easier with practice! And where NWO globalism is concerned, there is no shortage of dots.

    But Muslims play most eagerly the “willing executioners” of European culture and identity, and one must not overlook that they have their own agenda: ISLAMISATION and the establishment of SHARIA LAW!
    For 1400 years, Islam has been trying again and again to subjugate Europe, and being used as a tool by self-loathing leftards for the destruction of Europe, is something they find most useful to themselves; old dreams finally come true, and the enemy is opening the gates himself; conquest has never been so easy.

    80-90% of german Medias (especially Merkels various senders) are now 24 h/day hunting down any opposition from the so called “right” side. It starts with the “Morning News” and ends latenite.
    One by one hardliner (even women) from criminal leftists is given large opportunity and medial platform, to use shame- and hateful demagogy towards political representants of the “AfD”-Party (“Alternative für Deutschland”). One can observe, that the actual situation is no more very far from the political situation in the former USSR or DDR. This only real Opposition-Party should be destroyed by any means!
    If things are going so bad as just now (after that incredible Chemnitz-Media-Scandal) those left “responsable” circles” would of course like to keep the opposition in closed Camps.
    Many of them do not say it – but think so.

    We’ve seen this BS since back during the early TEA Party days. (2008) It’s not just the antifa and other terrorists doing this. It’s mainstream dims (aka, islammunists). It’s just what they do, part of their playbook.
    Back then, many of us made big signs with arrows pointing to the left or right, and the word “Infiltrator”. When we’d spot one, one or more of us would stand up close with our signs, arrows pointing to the culprit. It ruined their photo op moments.

    Unfortunately the smoke screens and the misinformation the Islamic propaganda machine generates do work.

    & our tactics seem to miss the mark 🙁 We have not lost yet, but we are still on a loosing streak.

    We need new and innovative ways to bring the truth to the general public. If only I could Induce them to have a close look at what Islam actually is. Islam cannot survive close scrutiny by a mentally healthy person (including Mulsims).

      The “Hitler salute” along with many other symbols of the Nazi party are actually illegal in Germany.

      This goes too for some communist symbols and other things seen as too offensive for modern Germany. Even something as simple as a “celtic cross” (which is almost identical to a bullseye) or a plain red star are illegal in public in Germany.

      “The law prohibits the distribution or public use of symbols of unconstitutional groups—in particular, flags, insignia, uniforms, slogans and forms of greeting.”

    Leftists false-flag all the time. I personally exposed two incidents in Palo Alto about 8-10 years ago.

    One was a communist neighbor of mine who was quoted in the newspaper pretending to be a Republican who was so angry at Bush’s war on terror that he was switching to Democrat. Googling I discovered that he had performed this ruse several times before, with the help of complicit reporters obviously.

    Then at one of the early Tea Party rallies I ran into a group of local communists I had earlier seen protesting at a Marine recruiting center. (Apparently Palo Alto communists are highly protective of Islamic terrorists.)

    At the Tea Party rally, whenever these anti-Marine communists saw a passing car with Mexican/Latino looking occupants they screamed at it: “brown people go home!”

    So, the Red Army Fraction is still around? I’m old enough to remember when they carried out terrorist attacks in the former West Germany.

    I also understand that Horst Mahler, one of their former members, ended up a genuine neo-Nazi, even to the point of saying the Shoah didn’t happen.

      They are a nasty bunch, Kepha. The Bader-Meinhoff Gang–their predecessor–went on a reign of terror in Germany in the 1970s, robbing banks, kidnapping, and murdering.
