Germany: Mayor blames crime on ‘right wingers’ that was actually committed by Muslim migrants

Nov 8, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 26 Comments

Here is the disconnect between the establishment narrative regarding the “right-wing” threat and “Islamophobia” on the one hand, and reality on the other.

“Egyptians carry out attacks on Syrians,” translated from “Ägypter verübt Anschläge auf Syrer,” by Sven Hadon, Bild, November 4, 2020 (thanks to Medforth):

Greifswald – Over the weekend a series of fires kept the Hanseatic and university town in suspense. The police were able to resolve the case quickly. Mayor Stefan Fassbinder (54, Greens) was even faster. He came forward with a suspicion of xenophobia that shortly afterwards proved to be completely wrong.

Last Saturday, a car was burned in Greifswald and another vehicle was damaged. A note with a painted swastika hung on the windshield. The owners of the vehicles: Syrians.

On Monday, two arbors were set ablaze in the allotment garden “Am Kleinbahnhof”, not far from the first crime scene. The owners: two other Syrians (52, 56). The arbors burned down. Around 20,000 euros in damage. And: In both plots, the police also found notes with swastikas.

Mayor Fassbinder spoke up in the morning: “I am appalled by this attack, which affects our entire cosmopolitan and tolerant city,” said the Green politician. Allotment gardens in particular are places of relaxation, peace and integration. A politically motivated act was assumed.

He should have waited for the investigation, because in the evening Fassbinder had to walk back his earlier statements in a press release: “As the police headquarters in Neubrandenburg announced, the alleged lead was not confirmed. Rather, an Egyptian suspect was identified.”

As a matter of fact! A 42-year-old asylum seeker from Egypt, who has been charged several times since 2018 for robbery and bodily harm, started the fires. He was arrested in the allotment garden. The state security found evidence that corroborated the suspicion, said police spokeswoman Claudia Tupeit.

“We rule out a classification in the category of right-wing violence,” Tupeit clarifies once again. The police spokeswoman comments critically: The presumption made by the mayor was premature!

Because the Egyptian is said to be “mentally abnormal”, the public prosecutor’s office did not apply for an arrest warrant for the man, but for a placement warrant for a closed clinic.

The application was rejected on Tuesday evening by the responsible judge at Greifswald District Court. “The suspect is thus free again,” said the police. The public prosecutor’s office appealed against the decision on Wednesday.

        Jihadism is not a ‘mental illness’. It is ideology.

          Yes it is Mortimer, how often do I have to tell people that these clowns have to be f*#ked in the head to follow Islam?
          Therefore “mental illness”.

          Keith O,

          Not all jihadis unnecessarily clinically mentally ill. This would have to be determined on a case-by-case basis by the appropriate licensed medical professional.

          And keep in mind that the defense of “mental illness” can be used in the criminal justice system.

          Careful what you propose / ask for…

      The mayor is partly correct: Egyptian members of the Muslim Brotherhood would fit into the definition of ‘extreme right-wing’ that the Leftards bandy about.

      The Muslim Brotherhood is a true fascist party.

        Another fascinating bit of their philosophy, at least to me. By any real standard, Islam is at the most extreme right position, well beyond “far-right.” Yet, the left cannot see or acknowledge this. And pretends that the rest of the world suffers from this blindness along with them.

    I think it is the same as your suspicion that Muslims were responsible for shooting the Ortodox priest in France:

    https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:VSHxAH9WaqEJ:https://www.jihadwatch.org/2020/11/france-greek-orthodox-priest-who-was-shot-had-been-beaten-and-had-his-cross-stolen-by-muslim-migrants-days-before+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=mt

    It’s the disconnect between the Muslims-are-responsible-for-everything and reality.

    Interesting that the page can no longer be found.

      I’m uncertain what your claiming… the page is there, when I clicked your url. Was there a different criminal found in that attack… if so can you provide a url please. As for the ‘disconnect between muslims are responsible for everything, and reality- no one has ever worked that one. But… Jihadists provide very much the most such attacks and such homicidism, and the study and data collection to demonstrate that is readily apparent.

    “mentally abnormal“ Again. But no blowback on governments failing to screen out the “mentally abnormal.” No examination of just how we shall define it or its origins or just how widespread this condition is. No concern for the much otherwise decried paternalistic thought processes and words of these politicians. No proposal for treatment. No acknowledgement of the extent of the false attribution to the right. Just a mindless chant arising from the left as it simultaneously and relentlessly paints itself of superior mind and virtue.

    Mayor Fassbinder is in denial. It would help if he got a briefing on the history of terrorist movements and the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, which is a true fascist party, since it is patterned on the Nazi Party of Hitler and the fascist party of Mussolini.

    As far as ‘mentally abnormality’ is concerned … Muslims who are highly pious adopt an attitude of warriro rage called ‘GHEIRA’ giving them the appearance of a mental illness. But it is not a true mental illness.

    GHEIRA is a self-induced rage causing Muslims to commit acts of terrorism in the ‘Way of Allah’.

      Nothing will help him except, maybe, when a moslem is cutting his throat, there is a slight possibility that he will see the light. Probably not, however.

      At last a simple and true assessment of the Muslim mindset.
      From birth to death their ‘teachers’ inculcate, no brainwash them, into believing that they are superior to all other peoples of the world, and that they are justified in imposing THEIR will and culture on all and any other view of our world. Anyone who denies what they call the ‘teaching’ of their mythical ‘prophet’ must submit and recant or suffer the consequences that THEY decide upon. No argument, no question. The only way to change their minds is by being more powerful, more determined and to bar their Imams and Mullahs from any Judeo/ChristIan country. FULL STOP.

    I know the type. They consider themselves “progressive”, but instead they are unfathomably naive with regard to the Islamic mindset. One could also call it stupid: But the worst kind of stupid. Brainwashed European academics that are absolutely sure and certain that they, and they alone know how the clock ticks…
    No hope of opening THEIR minds, who are so convinced of being open-minded..

    So it’s the old ‘mental illness’ scam again.
    Sick, twisted and evil is not a ‘mental illness’. It’s just some people’s character, usually moslem people.

      I’ve got the answer!!!

      ‘A 42-year-old asylum seeker from Egypt, who has been charged several times since 2018 for robbery and bodily harm, started the fires…..’

      Clearly this was a FAR RIGHT WING muslim asylum seeker from Egypt who’s obviously never realised that any apparent similarities between the Qu’ran and ‘Mein Kampf’ are entirely illusory. We all know that, don’t we?
