Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Berlin’s Christmas market, site of 2016 jihad massacre, reopens under siege with extensive roadblocks

Nov 24, 2018 3:11 pm By Robert Spencer

Germany’s Christmas market behind all these blockades is just an intermediate stage. The next stage will be the prohibition by Germany’s new Islamic overlords of any public display that is linked to the Christian faith, in accord with Islamic law.

“Berlin is building ‘unique’ terror protection,” translated from “Berlin errichtet ‘einzigartigen’ Terrorschutz,” NTV, November 20, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Two years ago, the Islamist Anis Amri raced with a truck into the Christmas market on Breitscheidplatz in Berlin. Twelve people are killed in the attack. Now the Christmas market is opening again – and becoming a high security zone.

Two years after the Islamist terrorist attack, Berlin’s Christmas market at the Gedächtniskirche is being severely sealed off with twelve bollards. Since Monday, workers are building more than a hundred square metal baskets on the long sides of the Breitscheidplatz and screwing them into a long row. The baskets come with plastic bags filled with sand. The long sides and pedestrian accesses were already blocked with extra bollards.

In addition, the Tauentzinstraße in the direction of Charlottenburg and the Budapester Straße direction Schöneberg have each been converted to one-way streets. Only buses, bicycles and delivery traffic may still drive on the usual tracks “against the current”.

According to the Senate, this combination of different barriers is supposed to offer a “unique access protection” in Germany against terrorist attacks on trucks weighing up to 40 tons. The Berliner “Kurier” wrote of a “mulled wine fortress”. The barrier elements and their construction and dismantling cost the country more than 2.5 million euros. The metal bollards and concrete bases are to be reused in the future….

    Let me guess – “we are not afraid, we won’t give in to fear”. Yeah, right – tell that to the security measures…

    Those malicious and vicious jihad truck attack in Berlin Germany at that Christmas market by a jihad-minded Muslim reflects the teaching of the “holy book” of Islam, the Quran. As, for example, the Quran instructs in Sura 9:111. “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed.” Nevertheless, the apologists for Islam still have the gall to make the claim the “Islam is a peaceful religion.” What an outlandishly false claim to make

      Speaking of false claims, the establishment tomfoolery with statistics game goes on. With the dhimmi, apologist authorities and leftist liars strongly in pole position, just as I have always tried to point out.

      Please read this very important FPM article by Bosch Fawstin about that, and the global outbreak of “mental illness” in the Islamic world. This bullpucky being flung at the wall is sticking, and the C-J movement is feeling the sting with the bolstering of Antifa/BLM/“pink pussy hat” ranks, and the co-opting ofthese “ movements” by islamists and jihadist imposters like CAIR:

    Those barriers are racist. Just because one Muslim ran over a bunch of people with his truck doesn’t mean that all Muslims want to do that. Everytime you defend yourself against Islamic terrorism you are acknowledging it’s existence, which is racist. If you don’t report on it, don’t talk about it, don’t defend yourself and stop thinking about it the problem will go away.

      Thanks Martin
      I went on to Youtube, part and did get the feelings of WW2 defences, and Gaza.

      Then went down a few comments. Google translate did help.
      Clicked on “Freedom 52” and expanded his comments.
      It showed a large number of ‘quotes’ from political parties, that seem to go back as far as the late 1980’s.
      Those quotes are even more shocking.
      The avowed intent is to “nullify” Germany and its people.

      “German Nation, that’s nothing for me What I’m referring to positively – I would even fight politically. ” ______________________________________ Sieglinde Frieß, Alliance90 / The Greens and Verdi Specialist Division Leader, said in Parliament in the Bundestag (Source: FAZ dated 06.09.1989): ” I wanted France to reach the Elbe and Poland to directly border France. ” ______________________________________ Christin Löchner, DIE LINKE (source):

      I have meet a few young German backpackers and know they are educated to believe that immigration is needed to aid Germany.

      At least the ‘youtube’ comments are more than questioning how Germany has ended up like this.

      As long as we had the good Mark, we had peace, and it was all okay. Then they said the euro brings peace. Security and prosperity and freedom. What have we got? A dictator and everything is overpriced murder and manslaughter Rape and finally 💣 a war💥

      No answers, sort of mellow and vote AfD. Yet the last election the Germans did not really make a tidal surge to AfD, and things need to change much more quickly.

    I sometimes wonder who is worse, the Nazis or the Muslims? I think the Muslims once they get rolling.
    The invading Russians could keep order, although the gang rapes after VE day were fairly bad.
    Surprisingly the White Russians were not so bad, and Ukrainians were actually well mannered. Mongols were a problem.
    The Americans just bribed the German girls for sex, although the girls saw the GIs as a meal ticket and maybe a ticket to America.

    • Wellington says

      Nov 24, 2018 at 8:09 pm

      Muslims by far. Here’s why. Nazis had a shelf life that was quite short in duration, only some 12 years once Hitler took power in 1933—and if you want to extend Nazi influence to most of the Weimar years it still only adds up to a generation and no more.

      By contrast, Islam has had a shelf life of some 1400 years. Yeah, a no brainer. As iniquitous as Nazism was, Marxism too (with a shelf life of about 75 years), Islam is supreme, easily so, in the totalitarian category. Just because it hides behind a religious veil as Nazism and Marxism did not (though both were, in effect, secular religions), does not diminish its iniquity. Indeed, it has added to it.

      • Indiana Tom says

        Nov 24, 2018 at 8:41 pm

        Yes on the shelf life, but I was just thinking about atrocities per year of existence. Of course we have the Armenian genocide, so the Muslims may run a better race than the Nazis.
        Communism with Mao, Stalin, and Pol Pot should get some honorable mentions.But atrocities over the span of shelf life, the Muslims would win hands down.

    Well, I’m glad the Christmas Market has reopened–but if Germany were not so overrun with violent supremacist Mohammedans this insane level of security *for a Christmas market* would not be necessary.

    When “public displays” of Christianity become disallowed in Germany due to the voting-power of the Moslem population, there will be many Germans who will applaud it.

    It will be called “supporting diversity”. It will be called “diversity and tolerance for all”, and “anti-racist”.

    As a result of this inversion of true meaning in language and words, some people will go mad, and the madness will result in blood.

    When you tolerate the intolerant, intolerance will win and there will be no more tolerance. ” (Voltaire.)

  11. Guy Jones says

    Things have reached the point where I think it is entirely fair and appropriate for governments of European nations to levy a special tax on Muslims, only, to help recoup all of the extra costs of policing, maintaining active anti-terrorism units and all other anti-jihadist security costs borne by countries in Europe, as a result of Muslims’ intrinsic subversion, supremacism, totalitarianism, belligerence and hate. Call it a sort of “reverse-jizya,” if you will.

    Of course, it would be far more effective, from both monetary and security standpoints, to simply ban all entry by Muslims.

    • gravenimage says

      Nov 25, 2018 at 11:37 pm

      Actually, we neither impose Jizya on Muslims nor do we mass murder them.

      Are you confusing us with Mohammedans?

    The peoples of Europe are in a very dangerous position. Put there by their own “Leaders”!
    These muslim savages will never assimilate! But will be a huge pain in the arse for centuries!
    A firm and strong leader could gain power and then begin mass deportations. But that seems unlikely for now.
    But, if these savages are not sent packing. If they continue to breed like vermin. If the Saudi money to build mosques keeps coming?
    Then all of Europe shall enter a dark age that will make the last one look like a tea party!
    Cheers! 🐷
