Germany busts 'terrorist organization' that planned attacks on refugees

[Jpost] German police detained 12 men on Friday suspected of setting up a far-right organization with the goal of carrying out attacks against politicians, asylum seekers and Moslems, the Federal Prosecutor's Office (GBA) said.

Prosecutors said four of the suspects had set up a "terrorist organization" in September 2019 and regularly met and contacted each other by phone and in online chart forums and chat groups. They had no immediate plan to carry out an attack.

The other eight men were detained on suspicion of supporting the organization with money and weapons, the GBA said.

The suspects wanted their attacks to create havoc and an atmosphere of fear that resembles a civil war, it added.

"The goal of the organization was to shake and eventually destroy the democratic system and social cohesion of the federal republic," the GBA said. "For the purpose of creating an conditions that resemble a civil war, attacks that were not yet concrete against politicians, asylum seekers and members of the Moslem faith were planned."

The German government last year launched a crackdown on right-wing political violence in response to a rise in hate crimes.

New measures approved after the killing of a pro-immigration politician and a deadly attack on a synagogue and kebab shop in Halle by an anti-Semitic gunman include tougher rules on gun ownership and stricter monitoring of hate speech online.

The government has said around 90% of the 1,800 incidents recorded against Jews last year were committed by individuals espousing far-right views.

Even though the local Jews say many verbal and physical attacks are committed by Moslems, so the question is whether the authorities are not recording those incidents, or whether they are deliberately mis-categorizing the miscreants.

Germany's domestic intelligence agency estimates there are around 24,100 "right wing Death Eaters" in Germany, about half of whom are potentially violent.

When a country will slowly squeeze the life out of its own people and feed it to the moslem dog, it's time to go rogue, go for the leadership. I can understand the angst of the far Right, whoever they are. I'll bet they can yet get along with jews. It's chancellor-for-life Merkel that is everybody's problem.

#2 A lot of the “far right” is neither far nor right — the Netherland’s Geert Wilders, for instance, is a plain vanilla democratic socialist except for his insistence post-9/11 that the demands of Muslim culture are incompatible with the Western ethos, and therefore those who will not accept that Muslims must first live according to Western laws cannot be allowed to live there. And a good portion of the European “right” admire the muscular self-defense of Israel’s Jews, and would like to team up with their own Jews to do the same. The rest of the European “right” loathe the Jews and want them gone, but the exact same can be said of the European left.

tl;dr: Left and right are no longer useful categories, especially those accused of being far right. Look at what a given person/group really is working for.

Terrorists? No need to worry.

#4 What tw said. Very astute.

"Far right" is a bogeyman, a marketing/fund-raising tactic, a trope seized upon by opportunistic partisans and grifters like the SPLC founder, the corrupt mass marketing wizard.

Today, the terms "left" and "right" are all but meaningless.

There are only OTOH entrepreneurs/hucksters/Shitshow-mongers who signal virtue, and OTOH a tiny holdout of people committed to rational analysis, fair-mindedness, and liberal -- old-fashioned, classical liberal -- belief in free minds and free speech.
