Despite German mainstream media and TV channels cheerleading Chancellor Angela Merkel’s open door migrant policy, a new survey shows that the majority of Germans are aware of the deteriorating law and order situation across the country. According to a poll commissioned by Germany’s largest circulation newspaper BILD, 51 percent of the Germans agreed that “there are places in the country so lawless, even police won’t venture there.”
The nationwide opinion poll once again highlighted the role of Arab and Turkish crime gangs operating in German inner cities. According to German media reports, several large-scale clashes and turf wars took place between Iraqi, Turkish, and Lebanese gangs in various cities in past weeks alone. Some 77 percent of the respondents wanted police to “crack down harder” on these foreign crime gangs, the BILD survey revealed.
Mainstream media on both sides of the Atlantic have repeatedly denied and ridiculed the notion that unregulated immigration was creating “no-go areas” in cities across Europe. In 2015, Fox News contributor Steven Emerson was forced to retract his on-air comment mentioning the existence of no-go zones for non-Muslims in England and France.
According to the report published by the German daily BILD on Sunday, “Arab clans” have “brought entire neighborhoods under their control’, where ‘even police won’t venture”–let along ordinary Germans.
The newspaper BILD published the finding of the poll in its Sunday edition:
51 percent of citizens complain that there are areas in Germany where the state cannot enforce the law of the land, the Emnid polls commissioned by BILD’s Sunday edition showed. Some 41 percent disagreed with that statement.Most of all, the Arab crime clans are wreaking havoc with impunity. “The criminal activities [carried out] by many of these clans have become a huge problem for Germany,” said Sebastian Fiedler, the representative of the German Association of Police Officers (BamS).In the northern part of Essen city, in Duisburg’s Marxloh district and Berlin’s Neukölln district, these clans have brought entire neighborhoods under their control, bought out the whole place and settled their families there. “Just a few days ago, members of the rival clans armed with machetes clashed with each other,” Fiedler said.Ralph Ghadban, an expert on Islam and [Arab] clans, estimates that individual families can have up to 1,000 members. “The clans expand because they grow demographically. Families with 12 to 16 children are not an exception. (…)”They act like tribes, intermarry and stick together. The booty keeps them tied together. In an open society like our’s, there is lot to get your hands on” says Ghadban. [Translation by the author]
In keeping with the time-tested leftist tradition of shooting the messenger, Germany’s state-run media lashed out at the newspaper for publishing the poll. The Bonn-based public broadcaster Deutsche Welle blamed the unfavorable poll numbers on the “disproportionate reporting of crimes committed by migrants and foreigners in popular media, particularly outlets like Bild.”
Deutsche Welle, which regularly toes the government line on the open door policy towards migrants, failed to mention the fact that according to the annual crime report of 2017, published by the Federal Crime Bureau (BKA), Germany saw a 50 percent rise in migrant crimes compared to the previous year’s figure. These newly arrived “refugees,” making up for less than 2 percent of the German population, were responsible for nearly 15 percent of all violent crimes, including rapes and aggravated assaults, BKA report revealed.
Meanwhile, undeterred by these disastrous social outfalls, Chancellor Merkel stays the course on her “Refugee Welcome” policy. As part of the coalition deal with the left-wing Social Democratic Party (SPD), Merkel has agreed to a liberal “family reunion” program that will allow the recently arrived migrants to bring their families over to Germany. These liberal immigration law coupled with Germany’s generous welfare provisions will undoubtedly come as a gift to Arab crime families expanding their foot prints in German inner cities.
BILD’s opinion poll, despite the confirmed grim reality, does have a silver lining to it. It shows that the German public is aware of the country’s deteriorating law and order situation. The German media’s lock-step march over Merkel’s migrant policy is failing to fool the ordinary Germans on the street.
