IS GERMANY NEXT? – AT 8:35 A.M. ET: The flood of refugees into Germany is providing good fodder for local Islamist extremists. A lesson for America in this? From The Wall Street Journal:
BERLIN—The Paris attacks have raised fears of terrorists slipping into Europe by posing as refugees. But in Germany, the top migrant destination, security officials have another worry: Local extremists will recruit the newcomers to join the Islamist cause once they arrive.
German authorities warn that migrants seeking out Arabic-language mosques in search of the familiar are increasingly ending up at those attended by Islamist radicals. In interviews, security officials from Berlin to the southwest German state of Saarland said they have registered a sharp rise in the number of asylum-seekers attending mosques they believed attracted extremists.
Federal officials said they have counted more than 100 cases in which Islamists known to them have tried to establish contact with refugees. According to state and local agencies across the country, Islamists have offered migrants rides, food, shelter and translation help. In some cases, they have invited them to soccer games and grill parties, or brought them copies of the Quran and conservative Muslim clothing.
“They start by saying, ‘We will help you live your faith,’ ” said Torsten Voss, the head of the German domestic intelligence agency’s Hamburg branch. “The Islamist area comes later—that is, of course, their goal.”
Security officials across Germany describe the potential radicalization of migrants, still entering the country by the thousands every day, as a challenge that adds to Europe’s existing security threats. With Germany expecting to take in roughly one million asylum-seekers from the Middle East and elsewhere this year, authorities are scrambling to prevent new pockets of radicalism from forming.
COMMENT: The Europeans are nuts. This is an invasion, and they don't realize it. These people aren't coming to Germany to become Germans. We have seen that time and time again, and yet Europe, dominated by an adolescent left, refuses to understand.
There really won't be a Europe in about 50 years. Many countries aren't even reproducing their populations. They see immigration as a means to providing new laborers for factories. Germany is in the worst shape of all. Germany as we know it may simply cease to exist. But for "sophisticates" it's merely a step toward integration and "multiculturalism." But even Angela Merkel has said that multiculturalism has failed. Trouble is, nobody is listening.
