Germany In Shock After "Monstrous" Attacks, Rape By 1,000 Men "Of Arab Or North African Origin"

Yesterday, we were shocked to learn that as German anger boils over at the country's unprecedented refugee wave, one or more so far unknown assailants fired shots through the window at a home for asylum seekers in western Germany injuring one resident as he was sleeping. As AP noted it wasn't immediately clear who was responsible for the incident or what the motive was. However, Darmstadt prosecutors' spokeswoman Nina Reininger told news agency dpa: "If someone shoots at housing which has people inside, I assume that it is a targeted attack."

Today, we are just as shocked to read that, even as we expected, the animosities between the two groups have dramatically escalated, and that the mayor of Cologne has summoned police for crisis talks after nearly 100 women reported they were robbed, threatened or sexually molested at the New Year's celebrations outside the city's cathedral by young, mostly drunk, men, police said on Tuesday. One woman said she was raped.

According to BBC, "the scale of the attacks on women at the city's central railway station has shocked Germany." About 1,000 drunk and aggressive young men were involved.

The initial shock will quickly transform to furious anger, because more important in this specific case was the origin of the 1,000 drunk assailants, who split into groups, and attacked women in the square. Citing the police chief Wolfgang Albers, BBC notes that the men were of "Arab or North African region", adding that they were mostly between 18 and 35 years old. He added that the attack was a "completely new dimension of crime".

BBC adds that what is particularly disturbing is that the attacks appear to have been organised. Around 1,000 young men arrived in large groups, seemingly with the specific intention of carrying out attacks on women.

Fearing a public backlash, Cologne mayor Henriette Reker said there was no reason to believe that people involved in the attacks were refugees. Nonetheless, after a crisis meeting, she admitted the attacks were "monstrous" adding that "we cannot allow this to become a lawless area."

This, of course, puts her in a very precarious position if it is found that the attackers were indeed refugees.

Reker was stabbed in the neck and seriously hurt in October, just a day before she was elected mayor. Police said that attack appeared to be motivated by her support for refugees.

Cologne Mayor Henriette Reker and President of the Cologne Police Wolfgang
Albers (R) hold a news confernece in Cologne, Germany, January 5, 2016.

Integration commissioner Aydan Ozoguz, a self-proclaimed Muslim, likewise warned against refugees and foreigners being put under "blanket suspicion".

At this point it is too late for damage control, however, as this has become a case of guilty until proven innocent, especially since politicians involuntarily may be stirring the pot: "We will not accept the disgusting attacks on women. All perpetrators must be held to account," said Justice Minister Heiko Maas, a Social Democrat, in a tweet.

As Reuters adds, the attack has stirred "strong emotions in Germany where Chancellor Angela Merkel has welcomed people fleeing war zones in the Middle East and Africa."

The political reaction was immediate: the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD), which has gained in polls in part at Merkel's expense thanks to a campaign against refugees, said she should close the border.

"Mrs Merkel, is Germany 'colourful and cosmopolitan' enough for you after the wave of crimes and sexual attacks?" tweeted AfD chief Frauke Petry.

Meanwhile, Germany's embattled prime minister urged people to respect strangers. Merkel said that "We .. respect everyone, even if we don't know them," she said. "That is the case not only for Germans, but for everyone."

A police vehicle patrols at the main square and in front of the central railway
station in Cologne, Germany, January 5, 2016.

Unfortunately for Merkel, it is now too late to contain the incipient, and increasingly more violent - and soon, lethal - conflict between growing sections of the local population and the country's refugees wave, because as Reuters further adds, and as we have noted repeatedly, there are almost daily attacks on refugee shelters.

"Events like that in Cologne foster xenophobia," Roland Schaefer, head of Germany's association of towns and localities, told reporters. Yes they do, and it was very obvious to everyone long before the recent break out of violence that when mixing two combustible cultures, these would be precisely the results.

Unless, of course, outcomes such as these were precisely what the otherwise very perceptive Merkel had in mind all along. Recall AIG's answer to "what Europe wants" back in May 2008:

To use global issues as excuses to extend its power:

  • environmental issues: increase control over member countries; advance idea of global governance
  • terrorism: use excuse for greater control over police and judicial issues; increase extent of surveillance
  • global financial crisis: kill two birds (free market; Anglo-Saxon economies) with one stone (Europe-wide regulator; attempts at global financial governance)
  • EMU: create a crisis to force introduction of “European economic government”

As for the "monstrous" attack in Cologne, the local news website Koelner Stadt-Anzeiger says the suspects were already known to police because of frequent pickpocketing in and around Cologne central station. Police are trying to find out whether the men who targeted women on Thursday night, surrounding, molesting and robbing them, organized their assaults through social media. They are also studying mobile phone and CCTV surveillance videos.

For now, the local police are searching for the 1,000 assailants. The will be found, and if confirmed that the "monstrous" attackers were indeed recent refugees, the dramatically escalating conflict within German society is about to take a quantum jump into ever greater violence.

Exactly, I don't care what religion they claim or adhere to feverently or just from time to time, I just don't like the middle eastern culture and for the most part they don't like mine either, why mix?

I have spent time in the middle east and india how is my actual observation when immersed in their culture stereotyping?  I didn't say all middle easterners are bad, ignorant, smart, good, or any other generalization, I simply said I don't care for their culture.  If we want to be honest I don't care for half of the American culture either but the other half isn't too bad and it's mine, so I am part of it like it or not.

Fannie Mae Chief Executive Officer Franklin Raines, two of his top underlings and select individuals in the "green" movement were inventing a patented system to trade residential carbon credits.

Patent No. 6904336 was approved by the U.S. Patent and Trade Office on Nov. 7, 2006 -- the day after Democrats took control of Congress. Former Sen. John Sununu, R-N.H., criticized the award at the time, pointing out that it had "nothing to do with Fannie Mae's charter, nothing to do with making mortgages more affordable."

"It wasn't about mortgages. It was about greenbacks. The patent, which Fannie Mae confirmed it still owns with Cantor Fitzgerald subsidiary CO2e.com, gives the mortgage giant a lock on the fledgling carbon trading market, thus also giving it a major financial stake in the success of cap-and-trade legislation."

The illegitimacy of the US government and phony election process is personified by the latest attacks on Trump (whom I am no fan of, I vote Green Party) by Hillary Clinton, claiming that Trump is "bad" because the terrorists hate him and use him in their recruiting videos?

Meanwhile, the terrorists JUST LOVE HRC and Bill as their Clinton Foundation has received much money from the head-choppers of Saudi Arabia, a prime exporter of global terrorism.

was waiting for ZH to grab this story ....

well over 1000 invaders getting activated on New Years eve in Cologne, Hamburg and Stuttgart

- why were Munich, Hanover, Berlin and other cities alerted prior and almost in lock down?

- this is clearly ISIS related, no ifs ands or buts

my suggestions at this point are quite radical to some but what has to happen, has to happen

*** LABOR CAMPS FOR ALL NON REGISTERED, NON EMPLOYED SINGLE ARAB AND NORTH AFRICAN MALES AGES 18 TO 35 ***

Why do these men should expect to get 3 free meals and a roof over their heads in Germany or elsewhere when they don't get this in the shitholes they left behind?

They can at least work until they're processed. They need to be held in camps and need to earn their privilege to be allowed free passage within Germany.

Once they're registered and denied ASYLUM because most of them are not from war torn countries, they can board the next TRANSALL flights by German Luftwaffe back to a place from there they can walk home. If necessary AIR DROP them from the backs of the TRANSALL over the fucking desert!

The German State is in the hands of the Jewish banksters. They'll do nothing of the sort. It's in the hands of the volks now. They had better man up and start a pogrom before the muzzies decide they're so femimized that they can slaughter them without repercussion. 

This was nothing short of testing the waters.

I just got back from spending 3 weeks in Bavaria.  I can promise you the average German is about to snap.  The hatred for muslims is palataable.   They aren't worried about Putin over running Germany; they're worried about the shit from the Middle East swamping them.......with Merkle's blessing.  I'm telling you, the Germans are very close to coming unhinged and then liberals will accuse them of being "typical Germans who are just too aggressive".

Both of Merkle's parents were Stasi, so it shouldn't be any surprise that she follows"The Jewish Party" line, considering the bullshit guilt Germans feel over WWII, and the influence of Communism. 

All the more proof that Hitler was right.

Does the average German feel any kind of anger over how Germany's women were treated after WWII? Do quotes from Ilya Ehrenburg come to mind? 

Holocaust, indeed. 

The Jew is Satan's agent on Earth, sent here to promote ideals which contradict what most people (regardless of race, creed, color, or religion) believe.

Time for the Germans to start printing WANTED: Dead or Alive posters with the names and photos of these jihadist gangbangers on the posters.  The fast and temporary solution for this problem in Cologne is giving the polizei orders to shoot to kill members of rape gangs.  The best solution is to round up these criminals and ship them to an Egyptian prison for warehousing.
