“Muslim Interactive” banned in Germany

Banning Islamist organizations doesn’t seem to be all that difficult. Although the next one will just pop up a few hours later.

But banning other forms of Muslim interaction in Germany has proven to be practically impossible.

Germany news: Interior Ministry bans ‘Muslim Interactive’ – The Interior Ministry has also searched the premises of other Islamist organizations in Hamburg, Berlin and Hesse. Meanwhile, the foreign minister has caused an uproar with comments on Syria.

“In the near future”

Is still pretty far away.

If at all. At least in Germany it always is.

Friedrich Merz says Syrians no longer have reason for asylum in Germany – Chancellor suggests deportations could begin ‘in the near future’ as government seeks to counter rise of AfD…

Merz said late on Tuesday that he expected many of the more than 1 million Syrians living in Germany would voluntarily return home.

“There are now no longer any grounds for asylum in Germany, and therefore we can also begin with repatriations,” he said. Those who refused to return could face deportation “in the near future.”

Don’t blame it on your voluntary dependency on Russian energy

You already had the highest energy prices before the war in Ukraine began.

Blame it on your self-inflicted Green Energiewende (energy turnaround). Turn off all your nuclear power plants and find out.

Germany’s heating bills have tripled since the start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine – Germany has faced a significant increase in heating costs since 2021, after deciding to end its reliance on Russia as a key energy supplier over its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Germans are facing a 82% increase in heating costs since 2021, when the country decided to cut ties with Russia following its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

German of the day: Selbstmordattentat

That means suicide attack.

Suicide bombing planned in Berlin?: 22-year-old Syrian arrested on suspicion of terrorism – Special forces arrested a suspected IS sympathizer in Berlin on Saturday. Investigators found material suitable for constructing explosive devices in his possession.

German of the day: Asylsuchende

That means asylum seeker.

Florida GOP Rep Backs ‘Anti-Greta’ Thunberg German Influencer’s Asylum Bid – Florida Republican Representative Anna Paulina Luna has announced her support for far-right German climate skeptic Naomi Seibt, who is seeking asylum in the United States.

Seibt has claimed she facing political persecution in Germany due to her support for the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party.

“I applied for asylum with no intention to ask for a favor to prioritize my case. I am a legitimate asylum-seeker, my case speaks for itself. But when congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna saw my announcement, she approached me and immediately offered her personal support. I am immensely grateful for this opportunity. We both fight for the same goals: The protection of free speech and our shared Western values.”

German of the day: Russische Wegwerf-Agenten

That means disposable Russian agents.

You know, low-level agents who are not not professional spies but hired for small sums to carry out minor acts of sabotage, then “discarded?”

Things like photographing military sites, setting vehicles and facilities on fire, spray-painting political slogans, spreading pro-Russian content and conspiracy theories, etc. They would normally also sabotage rail lines and other forms of strategic infrastructure but the Germans have already beat them to it.

Putin’s secret terror in Germany – Russia’s “disposable agents” pose a threat to internal and external security. It is difficult to expose them. That is why German politicians are puzzling over how to defend the country against them. Now, for the first time, a strategy is taking shape.

By 2029?

In Germany? I have my doubts.

And “cost-effective?” This is more doubtful yet.

German laser weapon could be on ships by 2029, say contractors – “Successful tests conducted on the frigate SACHSEN proved the demonstrator’s tracking capability, effectiveness and precision under real operational conditions for the first time in Europe,” the announcement says...

“Based on this, an operational laser weapon system could be available to the German Navy as of 2029, providing a powerful and cost-effective addition to conventional guided missiles,” the statement adds.

Hamburgers are the happiest?

No, not the food. The people.

Maybe, but they’re real grumps by non-German standards. And don’t even get me started on Berliners. No, not the food. The people.

Germany news: Hamburgers are happiest Germans, study says – A new study finds life satisfaction in eastern Germany rising faster than in the west, although Hamburg is the happiest city.
