German of the day: Den Angaben zufolge

That means “according to the information provided.”

You know, like “according to the information provided, the attacker was a 26-year-old German.” Right. Of course. Stay tuned.

German police fatally shoot knife attacker in Moers – Suspect killed after attacking pedestrians with knives in Moers.

It’s showtime!

And once you’ve shown everybody the show, leg dich wieder hin (go lie down again, go back to sleep).

Everybody knows that you’ll never do anything about the real problem.

Germany’s Scholz to visit Solingen after deadly knife attack – German Chancellor Olaf Scholz was set to visit the western German city of Solingen on Monday, three days after a knife attack which claimed the lives of three people.

German of the day: “Es wird wohl nicht bei Solingen bleiben”

That means “It probably won’t end with Solingen.”

Islamism expert explains the Solingen attack that left three dead ++ Is the Gaza terror now coming to us?

24 hours after the horrific knife attack in Solingen that left three dead and four seriously injured, there are many indications that it was probably an Islamist terrorist attack. A suspected Syrian surrendered to the police during the night.

The terrorist militia Islamic State (IS) is claiming responsibility for the attack.

German of the day: “Festival der Vielfalt”

That means “Festival of Diversity.”

That’s where this attack took place. No joke. You can’t make this stuff up, people.

An attack at a festival in a German city kills 3 people and seriously wounds at least 5 – An attacker with a knife killed three people and seriously wounded at least five late Friday at a festival in the western German city of Solingen, authorities said.

Witnesses alerted police shortly after 9:30 p.m. to an unknown attacker having wounded several people indiscriminately with a knife on a central square, the Fronhof. Police said the perpetrator was on the run, and they had only very little information on the man so far.

They said they believe the stabbings were carried out by a lone attacker.

PS: Solingen, famous in Germany for its knife manufacture, is sometimes referred to as the “city of blades” here.

German of the day: Verbieten

That means to forbid, prohibit, ban, outlaw (see verboten).

As in shutting down Iran’s major islamist extremist beachhead in Germany, the “Blue Mosque” in Hamburg.

And it only took thirty (30) years for Germany to do this.

Germans demands…

Will not be met.

Nothing will change here. Because… “Every country has the government it deserves.” See US-Amerika (AKA The Banana Republic) if you don’t believe me.

Germans demand that their government restricts migration to prevent further attacks after an Afghan knifeman killed a police officer and stabbed five others at a political rally – Sulaiman Ataee, 25, launched a frenzied attack in Mannheim city centre on Friday, stabbing well-known Islam critic Michael Stuerzenberger, police officer Rueven L, 29, and several bystanders in a horrific incident which was live streamed on YouTube.

Chill already

Please.

You climate criminals.

Alarm as German climate activists charged with ‘forming a criminal organisation’ – Action against Letzte Generation could have ‘immense chilling effect’ on climate protest, campaigners say…

According to prosecutors in the state of Brandenburg, the charges relate to more than a dozen “attacks” against oil refineries, the Berlin-Brandenburg airport and the Museum Barberini, in Potsdam, between April 2022 and May 2023.

The incidents include protests in which supporters of the group attempted to switch off oil pumping stations leading to the refinery, blocked airport runways and threw mashed potatoes at an oil painting by Monet.

Prosecutors said the charges applied to a subgroup of Letzte Generation, a Germany-wide campaign that has led to thousands of arrests in the past two years.

“No details about their identities were released…”

My bet is they’re Seventh-Day Adventists. Or Buddhists, maybe.

German officials detain 3 more suspects in connection with a Cologne Cathedral attack threat – Three more people were detained Sunday in connection with a reported threat of an attack on the Cologne Cathedral over the holidays, German authorities said.

The detentions came only days after a 30-year-old Tajik man was detained in relation to an alleged plot to attack the world-famous cathedral by Islamic extremists in the western German city.

The suspects were detained in the western cities of Duisburg, Herne and Dueren in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, and their apartments were also searched there. No details about their identities were released.

What kind of man?

A Germ-man? A French-man?

Nope. A Tajik-man from Tajikistan near Afghanistan.

German police holding man in connection with a threat to Cologne Cathedral – German authorities say they have detained a man in connection with a reported threat to Cologne Cathedral over the holiday weekend.

Tajikistan is 98% Muslim, by the way, so this couldn’t have been religiously motivated.

German of the day: Anschlag. That means attack.

It’s the Islamist way to say Merry Christmas!

Security hiked at Cologne Cathedral for Christmas amid attack threat – German police said on Saturday they were heightening security at Cologne Cathedral following indications of an attack planned for New Year’s Eve and in the wake of government warnings in recent weeks about the rising threat of Islamist violence.
