For example, he criticized German migration policy: \u201cTo be honest, yes, what is going on there is really a first-class scam, yes. We have nothing against granting asylum to those who are really politically persecuted. But that is, that is the very least of those who are entering our country in mass numbers with a wave of migration, supported by people smugglers. And quite a few of them are also committing crimes!\u201d St\u00fcrzenberger said that many criminals were \u201cMuslims from Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, North Africa.\u201d \u201cPeople, and I\u2019ll tell you one thing: I have never heard of a single Christian refugee who has committed a crime here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also criticized the increase in sexual crimes against women committed by immigrants from politically Islamic countries. And he spoke about New Year\u2019s Eve in Cologne. He said: \u201c1,000 cases of rape by Muslims from North Africa and Arabia. And that was just the tip of the iceberg. People, it happens. That doesn\u2019t mean that all Muslims do it. You know, the problem is who deals with it, and Muslims from fundamentalist Islamic countries don\u2019t just deal with it, they grow up with it. It\u2019s their culture, it\u2019s their zeitgeist, it\u2019s what society prescribes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For example, he said the following about political Islam: \u201cBecause that is the program of political Islam: to get women under control.\u201d Or: \u201cWe will not allow women in Germany who walk around scantily clad to become fair game for fundamentalist Muslims who see them as fair game. And there are hundreds of rapes! We are not saying that every Muslim rapes, for God\u2019s sake\u201d (translation by <a href=\"https:\/\/gatesofvienna.net\/2024\/11\/pay-up-islamophobe\/\">Gates of Vienna<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>St\u00fcrzenberger is relieved not to have to go to prison but currently avoids public appearances because he has realized the German authorities will not protect his life against the numerous death threats he receives.<\/p>\n<p>St\u00fcrzenberger has to parse his words carefully in Germany, and speaks of \u201cpolitical Islam\u201d rather than Islam or Islamism, to avoid running afoul of hate speech laws. He also takes pains to stress his criticism does not apply to all Muslims. Still, it wasn\u2019t enough to spare him a guilty verdict last Monday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone should be very careful how they express themselves. One should always differentiate and speak of political Islam. My criticism is only directed against the dangerous components of the ideology and those radicals who commit acts of violence as a result of it. Of course, it is not directed against all Muslims, as many are modern, value our democratic society, and respect our values and laws,\u201d St\u00fcrzenberger said.<\/p>\n<p>Only recently did Michael St\u00fcrzenberger find out the German authorities were aware of plans to kill him as early as 2023. The German FBI (BKA) was aware that an Egyptian Islamist named Tarik S. was planning an attack on his events buit did not inform him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe scandalous thing about this is that they did NOT inform me. If we had found out, we would have behaved differently, we would have been much more cautious,\u201d St\u00fcrzenberger said.<\/p>\n<p>Not a single mainstream German politician has expressed support or sympathy for Michael St\u00fcrzenberger.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"tgp-post-above-comments\">\n<div class=\"adcovery-postbelow-01\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/2024\/12\/woke-germany-michael-sturzenberger-nearly-killed-islamic-assassin\/\">Woke Germany: Michael St\u00fcrzenberger, Nearly Killed by Islamic Assassin, Fined for Criticizing Islamic Assassins<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/\">The Gateway Pundit<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Islamic Assassin Sulaiman Ataee Injured 5 and Killed Police Officer Rouven Laur May 31 Leading German Islam critic<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-39008","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 -
