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.”

Or attempted murder, at least.

Why won’t he tell us the rest of the letters in his name?

Syrian man charged with attempted murder in Berlin Holocaust Memorial stabbing – Germany’s top prosecutor has filed charges against a Syrian man in connection with a stabbing attack at Berlin’s Holocaust Memorial in February that seriously wounded a Spanish tourist.

The suspect sought to use the alleged crime to join the militant Islamic State group, the federal prosecutor said. The charges were filed July 18 and announced Tuesday.

The man, who was only identified as Wassim Al M. in line with German privacy rules, allegedly sent a photo of himself to members of the group before the stabbing to give the militants the opportunity to claim responsibility for the crime, authorities said.

They’re shaking in their boots

Those Syrian torturers involved in Assad’s atrocities who are now on their way to Germany.

The mere thought of Annalena Baerbock threatening them with “the full force of the law” gets me shaking too. With laughter.

Germany warns Assad supporters involved in atrocities in Syria against trying to flee there – Germany’s foreign minister is warning anyone involved in atrocities for the ousted Syrian government against seeking refuge in her country and says they would face “the full force of the law.”

German of the day: Aussetzen

That means to pause, defer, stop.

Syria updates: Germany halts asylum proceedings for Syrians – Germany is reportedly putting a halt on asylum proceedings from Syrian citizens. The decision comes after Syrian President Bashar Assad was toppled in a lightning offensive by rebel forces.

That means offender, criminal.

More German of the day: Handgeld. That means “hand money” as in token payment or signing bonus.

A new business model is born. Come illegally to Germany, get free room, board and medical for years, commit felonies, get more free room, board and medical for years, then get flown back home (to Kabul) with 1,000 euros hand money as a reward.

The plane has taken off (the first one in three years) – Germany deports numerous criminals to Afghanistan.

The German government has deported 28 Afghan criminals to their home country. This was confirmed by the Saxon Ministry of the Interior. Spiegel” had previously reported on this. According to the report, a charter flight took off from Leipzig to Kabul at 6.56 a.m. on Friday morning.

The Afghans had been brought together from various federal states. The deportation was organized by the Federal Ministry of the Interior, with the support of the Chancellery. According to the report, each of the deportees received 1000 euros in hand money, according to the authorities. A doctor accompanied the flight.

It’s Immigrants Like You That Give Immigrants Like You A Bad Name

In Germany.

Immigrants Are Big Fans of Germany’s Anti-Immigrant Party – The fiercest devotees of the far-right AfD aren’t native Germans but migrants from Russia.

AfD is generally seen as a xenophobic, nativist force in German politics, and yet one of its key constituencies is foreign-born. The party claims that one-third of its voters are Russian Germans, and a recent study has shown that although this figure is probably exaggerated, support for the party among Russian Germans is above the national average. While AfD has a reputation for anti-Semitism, its voters also include a small but growing number of Russian Jews.

“We had huge problems entering the country. And other people have it really easy. They are simply waved through.”

And organized crime professionals.

Germans were told time and time again starting back in 2015 that a significant number of the Syrian refugees illegally entering the country at that time were of the highest professional standing and would soon be a great enrichment for the country. I will not say that this did not happen but they could have at least mentioned the professional mobster folks too.

Newcomers from Syria, Iraq and other countries are changing the structure of organized crime in Germany, federal police representatives told the public broadcaster ARD in a new documentary set to be aired on Monday evening.

While investigating Arab-linked crime families, Germany’s BKA (Federal Criminal Police Agency) noted a rising number of suspects with foreign passports.

“In about one third of proceedings, suspects also included immigrants — and that means that we need to keep a very close eye on this phenomenon,” BKA leader Holger Münch said.

“The rule of law is under pressure.”

German Of The Day: Terrorverdacht

That means suspicion of terror.

A suspected Islamist from Syria was in arrested in Berlin after getting smart about how to make bombs. What he was doing in Berlin is anybody’s guess. Angela Merkel could not be reached for comment.

This story will now quietly disappear. Hope you enjoyed it while it lasted.

In Berlin ist ein 26-jähriger Syrer in seiner Wohnung im Bezirk Schöneberg wegen eines Terrorverdachts festgenommen worden: Wie die Staatsanwaltschaft Berlin am Dienstagvormittag mitteilte, vollstreckten Beamte des Bundeskriminalamts (BKA) gemeinsam mit der Spezialeinheit GSG 9 einen Haftbefehl sowie einen Durchsuchungsbeschluss. Konkret besteht der Verdacht der Anleitung zur Begehung einer schweren staatsgefährdenden Gewalttat.

This Man Is Not A Terrorist

It’s the woman standing next to him. Hardy, har, har.

Anas Modamani, who migrated to Germany from Syria, told the BBC that a photo he took with German leader Angela Merkel has been used in various reports claiming he was involved in several different terrorist attacks, which spread around Facebook.

Modamani hired a lawyer to file an injunction against the Menlo Park-based social network alleging the company failed to remove racist posts, in violation of German hate speech laws. The legal action comes as Facebook faces mounting pressure to do something about the proliferation of fake news on the social network.

Er wäre ein Paradebeispiel für gelungene Integration. Doch nach einem Selfie mit der Kanzlerin wird Anas Modamani immer wieder als Terrorist verunglimpft. Die Geschichte eines 19-Jährigen, der jetzt genug hat.
