Majority of Germans Want a Halt to Muslim Migration

MAY 6, 2024 10:00 AM BY HUGH FITZGERALD

In 2015, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, opening wide the doors of her country to more than one million Muslim migrants that year, proudly proclaimed “Wir schaffen das!,” or “We Can Do This!” How wrong she was. Almost a decade has now passed, and the majority of Germans want to call a halt, not to migrants in general, but specifically to Muslim migrants. They now feel a sense of dépaysement, of no longer recognizing the neighborhood or city that they live in as part of Germany. They feel overwhelmed by Muslim migrants, who in some cities have carved out No-Go areas, where non-Muslims fear to tread. Some Germans are gloomily afraid that a demographic jihad — the result of the birthrates of Muslim women being much higher than those of the indigenous Germans — will inevitably lead to the “Great Replacement,” that is, the replacement of Germans by a majority Muslim population. More on the Germans who want to put an end to Muslim migrants can be found here: 

The majority of Germans no longer want Muslim immigrants

translated from “Mehrheit der Deutschen will keine muslimischen Zuwanderer mehr,” Junge Freiheit, May 2, 2024 (thanks to Medforth):

BERLIN. The rejection of immigrants from Islamic countries has increased in Germany. An absolute majority of 52 percent (somewhat) agrees with the statement that “Germany should fundamentally no longer accept refugees from Islamic countries.” This is the result of a representative Insa survey commissioned by the Nius portal. 34 percent said “disagree” or “tend to disagree.”

The remaining 14 percent who offered “no opinion” are most likely people who are also opposed to admitting more Muslims to Germany, but are afraid of being thought to be “Islamophobes” or still worse, “racists,” so prefer to remain publicly noncommittal. If we count them as opposed to more Muslim migrants, as I believe we should, then 66%, or two-thirds, of Germans, are against any more Muslim migration. That is an astonishing change from 2015, when a majority of Germans thought, with Merkel, that “we can do this.”

There is even greater agreement with this statement: “In certain areas of my city or village I have the feeling that I am no longer in Germany.” 57 percent see it that way, 36 percent cannot share the feeling.

A majority of Germans now declare that in parts of their towns or villages, the Muslim population is so overwhelmingly, even aggressively, present, that they no longer feel that they are still in Germany. The 7% who did not answer this question, though unwilling to publicly agree with that statement, lest they be seen as “Islamophobic,” should be counted as sharing that sentiment — that is, of no longer feeling they belong in certain areas of their towns and villages. That would mean that nearly two-thirds of Germans, or 64%, share that feeling of no longer belonging, of dépaysement.

This also leads to the fear of becoming a minority in one’s own country. 54 percent of those surveyed said they were “afraid that Germans would become a minority in Germany.” 37 percent see it differently.

A relative majority supports the thesis of a population exchange [the “Great Replacement”], which the Office for the Protection of the Constitution classifies as right-wing extremist. 45 percent say: “I believe that Europeans are gradually being replaced by immigrants from Africa and the Middle East.” 41 percent reject the sentence.

Nearly half of Germans — 45% now think that their progeny will eventually be replaced by Muslim migrants. Another 14% did not answer the question. I argue, just as I have above, that this was because they didn’t want to reveal their alarm, which some would attribute to “Islamophobia.” That 14% ought logically to be counted in the column of those fearing that Muslims will become a majority in Germany. That means that 59% of Germans are worried about “the Great Replacement.” An astounding number.

The claim that there is racism against whites in Germany is also highly controversial. The CDU once suggested that former President of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution Hans-Georg Maaßen leave the party because he had made statements in this direction. But the majority is on Maaßen’s side. Two thirds (65 percent) confirm that there is “also racism against whites” in Germany. Only 22 percent think that’s not true.

The answer to the question of whether “migrants have largely integrated well into Germany” is also clear. 58 percent say no, 29 percent say the opposite.

Here again, 13% answered “No Opinion,” and again I think that means they were afraid to give an opinion unfavorable to Muslims, lest they be thought of as “Islamophobes.” But we should count those 13% as believing “migrants” (overwhelmingly Muslims from North Africa and the Middle East) have not “integrated well in Germany.” That means a total of 71% of Germans share that view.

Germans agree most with the sentence “Current migration is overburdening the German school system”. At 75 percent, three quarters of those surveyed are convinced that this is the case. 22 percent cannot detect overload.

Insa interviewed a total of 2,004 representatively selected voters aged 18 and over for the survey from April 26th to 29th.

Summary:

1. 66% of Germans now want a complete halt to Muslim immigration.

2. 64% of Germans have the sense that in their own towns and villages and cities there are places where they no longer belong — a troubling sense of dépaysement.

3. 59% of Germans believe that they will be “replaced” in their own country by Muslims — that is the “Great Replacement” that now haunts many in Europe.

4. 1%(sic) (71%) of Germans believe that Muslims “have not integrated well into Germany.”

5. 3 out of 4 Germans agree that Muslim migrants are “overburdening the school system.”

“Wir Schaffen Das!” “Wir Schaffen Das”?

No, Germany. Merkel was wrong. It turns out that you could not do it. But it was always a forlorn hope. And you are not alone. When it comes to integrating Muslims into your societies, no country in Europe has managed. It just can’t be done. And the Great Replacement is no longer just a bad dream.

Looking at the results of municipal elections in England this week makes it very obvious that Islam punches way above its weight politically in Europe. They don't need a majority to turn Germany into a caliphate, they will do it with a small minority.

Hamburg: Germans  protest against

Muslim ‘caliphate’ rally

MAY 6, 2024 8:00 AM BY CHRISTINE DOUGLASS-WILLIAMS

The latest rally in Hamburg is a counter rally, a response to the emboldening of the jihad movement in Germany, which we saw in action last week, with over a thousand Muslims chanting “Allahu Akbar” and demanding an Islamic caliphate in Germany.

In response:

Around 1,000 people joined Saturday’s rally, which was organized by associations including “Kulterbrücke” (Cultural Bridge) and “Säkularer Islam” (Secular Islam).

Germany has also seen the far left emboldened elsewhere, with 16 Amazon trucks torched by demonstrators, who also called for the “destruction of patriarchy.” Also demonstrating were “Queers for Palestine.”

Hamburg: Hundreds protest against ‘caliphate’ rally

DW, May 4, 2024:

The northern German city of Hamburg saw a big counter-demonstration on Saturday, as people took to the streets to protest a rally called by people with links to the Islamist scene last week.

The event last week, also in Hamburg, saw some individuals call for establishing strict Islamic law, Shariah, to replace German democracy.

Saturday’s pro-democracy rally was peaceful

Around 1,000 people joined Saturday’s rally, which was organized by associations including “Kulterbrücke” (Cultural Bridge) and “Säkularer Islam” (Secular Islam). The event was peaceful.

“We see Muslims as citizens of a democratic society who share the rights and duties of all other citizens,” the Säkularer Islam association writes on their website.

“Hamburg has sent a strong signal against hatred and hate speech today. Islamism has no place here,” Dennis Thering, the chairperson of Hamburg’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU) parliamentary group said after the Saturday rally….

German teacher: ‘At the end of the lesson,

they expect me to convert to Islam’

What will Germany be like in ten years? Twenty?

Focus school in Berlin: ‘At the end of the lesson

they expect me to convert to Islam'

translated from “Brennpunktschule in Berlin: „Am Ende der Stunde erwarten sie dann, dass ich zum Islam übertrete“,” by Clint Luke, Berliner Zeitung, May 2, 2024 (thanks to Medforth):

Not a week goes by without hearing something outrageous from a Berlin hotspot school, for example in Wedding, Moabit or Neukölln. On the surface, education in these districts appears to be in dire straits. Or is it all just scaremongering?

Daniel S. (name changed) has been working as a teacher at one of these disreputable educational establishments for several years, teaching several classes in years seven to ten. Whereby ‘teaching’ seems almost a bit fancy, because he can only do this ideally – a large proportion of his pupils would have problems controlling their own emotions. Sometimes, however, the precarious domestic circumstances also play a role. If, in such a heated situation, you also touch on topics that go against the grain of the pupils, things really start getting heated.

‘What, for example?’ I ask.

Anything that contradicts the Koran according to the students’ judgement.

With guidelines like these, it’s easy to put your foot in your mouth. Needless to say, these orthodox tendencies are sometimes applied very creatively. For example, if a homework assignment is too uncomfortable for the pupils, it can just as quickly be rejected as ‘haram’, which makes the question of whether the classes are Muslim-dominated superfluous at this point. They are, and almost exclusively so. A circumstance that leads to certain problems, as Daniel S. emphasises from experience: ‘If pupils of a dominant faith, such as Islam here, stick completely to themselves and are so indoctrinated that it can only be described as fundamentalist, this affects our Western values in a very immense way.

Some female colleagues often hope in vain for the necessary respect from their male pupils. Homosexuality is also a no-go. According to Daniel S., a number of our Central European freedoms, such as the choice of religion or the free choice of identity, are not only excluded but rejected by the pupils. And of course the Middle East conflict plays a role. When he raises this topic, the class initially falls silent. But it should not stop there.

‘At the end of the lesson, they expect me to convert to Islam,’ he says with a weary smile. ‘Because they think they’ve argued so well that they’re on the right side.’

There was a festive atmosphere in his classes after October 7 last year.

When asked by the pupils whose side he was on, Daniel S. responded with counter questions. Do the pupils mean that politically? Is it about territories or about the people who were murdered and kidnapped? This strategy provokes different, sometimes thoughtful reactions. But in the end, there is no real critical debate.
