Children Raised by Islamist Families Pose ‘Threat’ to Germany, Intel Chief Warns

Children growing up in Islamist families in Germany pose a serious threat, warned Hans-Georg Maassen, the head of the German domestic intelligence agency (BfV), on Monday. He described the ongoing “jihadist socialization” of children as alarming and that the situation presented a significant challenge to the authorities.

The latest disclosure belongs to an intelligence report published by several German media outlets on Monday. “Islamist children pose real ‘threat’ to Germany,” reported the German public broadcaster Deutsche Welle, quoting the spy chief Maassen.

Last month, Legal Insurrection reviewed BfV’s annual report that raised the alarm over the large number of women and children attached to ISIS fighters of German origin returning to the country. The intelligence report made public on Monday also expresses concerns over radical Muslim families that had remained in Germany.

German weekly Der Spiegel reported the latest intelligence assessment:

Hundreds of children are living in Islamist families across Germany, says the Office for the Protection of the Constitution [domestic intelligence agency]. The chief of the agency sees them as a threat. Germany state of North Rhine-Westphalia mulls monitoring them at an early [age].

They pose a “not insignificant potential threat.” The Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) warns of children growing up in Islamist households. There are signs that the “radicalization of minors and young adults was taking place faster and earlier.”

The Funke media group reported this citing a new analysis from the agency. The Intelligence Agency (BfV) had already warned of returning women and children belonging to Islamic State fighters, who had been send back to Germany by their husbands and fathers or [the government of] Iraq [after their capture].

According to BfV’s analysis presented in the report, the threat is also posed by families living in Germany that didn’t move to the war zones. These are a couple of hundred families with several hundred children, the BfV estimates. The continuing jihadist socialization of children is “a cause for concern and therefore a challenge for the [German] intelligence agency,” BfV chief Maassen told the Funke media group.

According to the magazine Der Spiegel, the western German state of North Rhine-Westphalia has started to consider measures to lower the age limit for surveillance to under 14. “This is not about criminalizing people under the age of 14, but about warding off significant threats to our country, like Islamic terrorism, which also targets children,” Patrick Sensburg, a politician belonging to Chancellor Angela Merkel’s CDU party, said.

Human rights groups rejected the proposal to carry out surveillance on children. The children should not be subjected to surveillance as “their ideas and opinions aren’t yet fully developed and are subject to change,” argued the Humanist Union (HU), the leading German human rights group.

“Putting children under surveillance” amounts to “a massive violation of their fundamental rights,” the rights group added.

Merkel’s open door policy towards migrants from Arab and Muslim countries has bolstered the ranks of Islamists in the country. The number of Islamists has doubled in the past five years, crossing the 10,000 mark in 2017, the German intelligence estimates reveal.

Hundreds of battle-hardened ISIS-returnees pose an even greater security threat. While the recent official report refused to divulge the actual number of ISIS member in Germany, citing insufficient intelligence, last year’s official estimates given out by the German Interior Ministry placed their number of ISIS-returnees at 500. And according to German media reports, most of these returning war criminals freely walk the streets.

Merkel, dictating an open door policy to the rest of Europe, puts German security services in a serious bind. They not only face the moral dilemma of surveilling Muslim children in their teens, but the near-impossible task of infiltrating closed Arab-Muslim clans, mosques, and schools.

The rights of radical islamists to be and create more radical Islamists supercedes the right of native Germans to continue to live…..

    Germans and the rest of the West need to wise up, stop importing Middle East garbage, and start purging that which is already there.

Guess the German dirt isn’t magical enough. Need more magic American dirt. Maybe we can air drop it like the Berlin airlift.

” Human rights groups rejected the proposal to carry out surveillance on children. The children should not be subjected to surveillance as “their ideas and opinions aren’t yet fully developed and are subject to change,” argued the Humanist Union (HU), the leading German human rights group. ”

If that country wants to survive, it will have to avoid following such naive, counterproductive advice. The children are reflecting what they are being taught by the adults around them. Monitoring of more than one child will allow triangulation and identification of the culprit adults. The culture of the adults around them has a well-documented tendency to use them as cannon fodder at a very young age. The age of 14 years is by no means too young.

    “their ideas and opinions aren’t yet fully developed and are subject to change,”

    Not if somebody straps a suicide vest on them and sends them into a crowd of people.

Duh!

“Merkel’s open door policy towards migrants from Arab and Muslim countries has bolstered the ranks of Islamists in the country. The number of Islamists has doubled in the past five years, crossing the 10,000 mark in 2017, the German intelligence estimates reveal.”

*We’re bleeding out. Bleeding out!

Stop shooting yourself.

*Why are we bleeding out?

Stop shooting yourself.

*It’s critical. Someone help!

Stop shooting yourself.

The stoopid. It burns. Germany deserves to die at this rate.

Seeing how there is no significant difference between Islam and Nazism and Germany bans all Nazism they should also ban Islam.

This problem is easily fixed; all they have to do is retire Herr Maassen. No more reports, no more problem. I’m sure the Merkel government is working on it right now.
