Ironically, although former German Chancellor Angela Merkel was an open-borders globalist, she admitted in 2018 that anti-Semitism was “coming to the country from ‘refugees or people of Arab origin.‘” The problem hasn’t subsided.
Germany has welcomed in massive numbers of Muslim migrants and faces the inevitable fallout, as Merkel recognized at least in part. The country also banned Hizballah activity in 2020, designated it a terror organization, and raided mosques. Then last year, Germany banned Hamas flags in response to a rise in antisemitic attacks.
Expect a steady rise of antisemitism in open-door countries, propagated also to the mainstream population by Islamic supremacists in the guise of a pro-Palestinian “resistance” against the state of Israel.
A similar pattern is seen in France, correlated to Muslim migration. In 2020, the World Zionist Organization (WZO) was reported to be “working on a plan to bring hundreds of thousands of French Jews to Israel.” The population of Jews in France is roughly 453,000. According to WZO Vice-Chair Yaakov Hagoel: “Anti-Semitism is increasing and France is surrendering to jihad.” Hagoel continued: “The worsening economic situation, and the growth of radical Islam are creating a one-time opportunity to break down bureaucratic barriers and bring the Jews of France to Israel.”
“Workers in the Arabic department of the taxpayer-funded Deutsche Welle have been fired, and there are 11 other individuals still under investigation,” by John Cody, ReMix News, February 8, 2022:
A number of staffers in Deutsche Welle’s Arabic department have been terminated from Germany’s public broadcaster Deutsche Welle after the employees were accused of antisemitism.
Following allegations against its employees, Deutsche Welle (DW) has initiated termination proceedings in five cases, according to DW director Peter Limbourg during a press conference. The broadcaster gave no information about the employees involved. As a result of the allegations, the broadcaster wants to produce a company-wide definition of antisemitism that all employees must know and not violate. The definition would include the recognition of Israel’s right to exist and the rejection of denial and trivialization of the Holocaust, according to a report from Germany’s Tagesschau news outlet.
In the past few weeks, an external investigation initiated by the broadcaster has been underway against some employees of the Arabic editorial team and freelance Deutsche Welle employees abroad. The investigation began as a result of allegations of antisemitism that became public through a piece in the Süddeutsche Zeitung daily at the end of November. The employees were suspended during the audit.
Former Federal Minister of Justice Sabine Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger and the psychologist Ahmad Mansour presented the results of their external examination. They emphasized that it was a case of isolated misconduct, and that structural antisemitism in the Arabic editorial team was not uncovered.
Besides the five separation procedures, Deutsche Welle is investigating 11 other suspected cases, according to Limbourg.
“I and the management are sincerely sorry that we are in this situation. The mere suspicion that there is antisemitism in a German tax-financed institution must be unbearable for Jews in this country and worldwide,” Limbourg emphasized at the beginning of his speech……

Exactly. To promote Islam is to demote women. Islam doesn’t permit women to rule over men in any field of endeavor.

The anti-Semitic Sharia supremacists that Merkel foolishly brought to Germany are the New Nazis. Heil Mohammed. (sarc/off)

Hitler praised Islam as a militant, anti-Semitic religion. He brought Mufti Mohammed Amin al-Husseini to live in Berlin to help him with the Final Solution.

I just read Al Jazeera’s version….and it was nothing but apologia for the fired journalists. The article above is not as bad, but neither dared to quote the actual comments that facilitated the firing. I would guess they are quite egregious….but we may never know. If anyone can dig up the quotes, please do.
Fred Alan Medforth says
One editor, for example, called the Holocaust an “artificial product” on Facebook and wrote that the Jews would continue to control “people’s brains through art, media and music”.
Another employee wrote columns in an Arabic-language newspaper before her time at the German foreign broadcaster, which is financed with almost 400 million euros of taxpayers’ money, and wrote there, among other things: “If the Islamic State were fighting for liberation in Palestine, I would revise my judgement of it, its men and its financiers. And if it kicked the Israelis out of the Holy Land, I would be in its ranks.” One of the channel’s correspondents wrote of a “barbaric war machine” in a tweet suggesting a reference to Israel, while a freelancer from the Deutsche Welle Academy, which works independently of the editorial office, tweeted: “The Holocaust is a lie #FreedomOfSpeech”.

Staffers in Deutsche Welle’s Arabic department were giving the Broadcaster too much diversity.
James Lincoln says
Since the source texts of islam are anti-Semitic:
Just wondering if the workers in the Arabic department of the taxpayer-funded Deutsche Welle, fired for antisemitism, can now claim islamophobia…
