Germany Arrests 2 Lebanese Suspected of Trafficking Syrians
[AnNahar] Two members of a Lebanese family suspected of trafficking Syrians on flights to Germany and the Netherlands were arrested in a series of raids in Germany on Thursday, authorities said.

Police said that 29 properties in four German states were raided as part of an investigation launched at the end of last year. Most were in Rhineland-Palatinate, in the southwest, and in North Rhine-Westphalia, its northern neighbor and Germany's most populous state.

The Syrians, who had paid "large sums of money," were flown largely from Beirut to Frankfurt, Duesseldorf, Munich and Amsterdam, using forged visas to get through passport checks in the Lebanese capital, prosecutor Peter Fritzen said. They applied for asylum on arrival.

Investigators are looking into 26 attempts at trafficking people, 10 of which were prevented when authorities intercepted the forged visas and people were turned back in Beirut.

The suspects arrested Thursday were two members of a Lebanese family that has lived for years in the German town of Bitburg. Authorities were trying to track down two other suspects, and were also investigating other alleged offenses including theft.
Breitbart adds:
Germany’s Deutsche Welle reports there may be as many as 10,000 people working for the clans in North Rhine-Westphalia alone, and that the groups are involved in people trafficking, prostitution, and other organised crime. Speaking Thursday, Berlin Attorney General Sjors Kamstra said the wealth and power of the gangs made them difficult to prosecute because they could bribe or intimidate witnesses into silence.

That goes as far as intimidating the police themselves, with Arab clans accused of spreading sexual rumours about officers. As the clans control prostitution rackets in the city, witnesses claiming to have slept with officers are easily produced.

The raids came after Europe
...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...
an politicians expressed their disgust at the deaths of 39 in the back of a refrigerated truck that had come to the United Kingdom from mainland Europe on Wednesday. It remains likely that the route of the truck from Bulgaria to the UK would have taken it through Germany itself, and German police are assisting the British with their investigations.

German-Lebanese academic Ralph Ghadban has blamed the German government’s policy of encouraging multiculturalism for the formation and power of the crime clans in the country. In remarks reported by Breitbart London in March, Ghadban said: "dangerous areas, so-called no-go areas, in which Arab clans have the upper hand" were the result of multiculturalism which encouraged people from different backgrounds to live apart, not assimilate.

In 2016, it was even said that Berlin’s criminal underworld had been "lost to Arab clans" who recruited young, fit migrants colonists arriving during the Europe Migrant Crisis of that year to do dirty work for the gangs. By contrast, German media today reported police insisting their raids against the clans were now being felt and having an impact.

#1 I wouldn't think there's much demand for Syrians.
