German Interior Minister: "Islam Does Not Belong to Germany"

When Islam is not able to fit into Islamic societies with their fraternal killings how can they fit into non-Islamic societies. We should on the other hand be thankful for the Sunni/Shia divide. Keeps them active amongst themselves!

Our German friends,
Don't be afraid. Just say it, "The emperor has no clothes." "Merkel has to go!"

It is not too late. The will of the people can prevail. Recognize that the evil ideology of Islam is destructive of civil societies. It promotes hatted of and violence towards non-Muslims. In their home countries they persecute and murder Christians. Why won't they do that in Germany and the rest of Europe? Indeed they are doing it. They cannot accept Judeo-Christian civilization because their brainwashed compatriots will kill them.

This is somewhat hilarious. First Germany under Frau Merkel has flooded Western Europe with the mostly muslim migrants then, in a pitiful attempt to increase her party's popularity started exerting fragments of the common sense. However the damage has been done. Germany has probably become a little tired celebrating multiculturalism and diversity, which is expressesing itself in rising terror and crimes and establishing of the no-go zones, actual enclaves inside Germany. I am not sure if Germany is able to comprehend that the Islamic ideology is based on the genocidal treatment of non-muslims, famously called jihad. Just look what is happening in Africa (Nigeria, Sudan, Somalia, etc.), Syria, other countries where islam is the official religion, political doctrine and the way of life. Non-muslims are persecuted and often simply slaughtered just for belonging to a different religion. How can this ideology be the part of Germany? It is rather linked to the Germany of the Nazi time and cannot be compatible with today's democratic Germany. Taking into account the number of muslim immigrants already inside the Western Europe and the speed of their procreation, it is quite easy to envision the near future of the West. The signs of declining democracy are highly noticeable across the Western Europe. This is not a gloomy prognosis, this is the sad reality.

It's a historical German problem called "too little too late." The last time it irreversibly occurred was under Adolf Hitler and now his modern irreversible shadow is Angela Merkel. On both occasions the whole world paid the price in innocent blood.

He would have been more accurate had he stated, 'Europe belongs to Islam'.

Trump and Horst Seehofer are breaking taboos about political correctness, racism, xenophobia which were anti-Islam. Muslims can live in Germany and America if they respect our constitution and Judeo-Christian faith. Islam, incompatible political ideology does not belong to our country. Time to stop the wild immigration and protect our borders. Finally, Two great wise leaders who have the courage to fight for our freedom, liberty and security with no tolerance.

Welcome only people who will add to society. If they want to take your high standards away, get rid of them. They are your guests, and if they don't act like responsible guests, they should be removed. This lesson needs to be learned by every country allowing in these people under the guise of a sanctuary.

By banning Journalists with rightist views the UK has effectively established that sharia blasphemy laws are now the rule of Law. May has exceeded even Merkel's Islamophilia.

I was told by a local police-officer that it was Sadiq Khan that blocked the use of "Speaker's Corner" citing "incitement" and "Islamophobia" (what else?). The Officers that interviewed Lauren Southern a Canadian Commonwealth subject and citizen, gave her a semi literate letter that could only have been composed by a foreigner. Southern it appears was a victim of a Moslem plot to exclueed all critics of Islam.

I am now convinced that May and Co desire and intend Britain to become Islamic and will endeavour to crush all anti-Islamic dissent. Since when does a "Tory Party" ban free speech?

Merkel is bad enough but May seems to positively salivate over Islam. I reckon Britain will declare itself an Islamic State within a few years (2023?). The King of Saudi Arabia has paid a number of visits recently.

UK is realigning itself as part of Islam and we sit like lemons allowing it. At least Merkel sees she may have made a mistake.

I wrote to May two years ago about the threat of Islam and received by reply a badly written-semi-literate letter, like that above threatening me with circumstances if I and my "ilk" persisted. The British Civil Service is run by Moslems. Britain is well on its way to the House of Allah.

"Chancellor Angela Merkel, who has repeatedly insisted that 'Islam belongs to Germany.'"

Really painful to hear

"The backlash will raise questions about how much Seehofer — a former minister-president of Bavaria and a vocal critic of Merkel's open-door migration policies — will be able to accomplish during his tenure."

And of course, that's the point -- now that people are beginning to admit the obvious it's not only Islam, it's also the bizarre behavior of people like Merkel, as well as the secularists in the West proper. There has to be checks and balances in place that actually work when leaders go errant while dragging the entire country to hell with them.

Islam is as much political as it is ideological, which shapes its political positions. Seehofer, for example, will be doomed to fail before he begins unless he is an amazing salesman; since he has both Islam and liberalism working against him. How can he possibly overcome such odds?

Leftists seem to a have a significant problem with embracing/facing reality until it's right there, smack-dab staring them in the face with right wingers standing there with their arms crossed saying "told you so"...

Once again, Seehofer's and Merkel's statements are nothing but political charade. And Merkel today, as her coalition partners, entirely dismissed Seehofer's assertion that Islam does not belong to Germany.

Seehofer was and still is nothing more than the Chancellor's bedside rug which already cost him the chairmanship within his Bavarian CSU party. They both just continue the Punch-and-Judy show they pulled off so often during their last term to delude the public once more. Both know the majority of voters do NOT want the same administration reloaded they massively defected during last election. And neither are they willing to stop third world mass immigration nor do they have any means to detain and deport the hundred thousands of illegal (and often highly criminal) subjects.

A mere look at the new administration - and the tier 2 - also show the very key figures still in power (Maas, Altmeier, von der Leyen, etc.) who supported Merkel's orchestration of predominantly Muslim mass immigration, Islamization and EU infiltration. Merkel entirely surrendered her CDU party's political stance to her coalition partner for the mere objective of her own fourth term. Which led to the absurd situation of the biggest electoral loser, the SPD party, now determining the country's political agenda including an entirely unabated open border policy.

As long as Merkel remains the darling of predominantly leftist mainstream media the new, old administration will, despite any different public confessions, carry on the hidden agenda of strict reverse integration and to destruction undeterred, sad as it is. For all of these autocrats the biggest threat to their new multicultural order was, is and remains the emancipated, independent, law abiding citizen who should be kept in check, stripped from power, financially exploited and with no say about his/her destination at any point of time.

Germany belongs to Islam. Thank the secularist progressive Germans.

Good strong words. I believe von Storch, the AFD is on the right track.
Seehoffer is from Bavaria, up for re-election soon. So he must speak to "deplorable" German people addressing their anti-Islam sentiments. Will he follow-up with policy changes? Or will he be hit with "hate speech" accusations? Merkel's words, they sound disingenuous, the woman is completely untrustworthy.

At last, a German politician of the ruling coalition speaks the truth! Horst Seehofer has no doubt set the cat among the pigeons by speaking about the fundamental mismatch of a free, democratic country whose culture is informed by historical Christianity with the theocratic, rigid and illiberal religion that is Islam. Multiculturalism only works if all immigrants respect and conform to the history, culture and traditions of the host country. This clearly poses a fundamental problem for many Moslems; accordingly, they need to decide where their priorities lie. If they regard their religion as paramount when it conflicts in several areas with the secular laws of their host country, then they have right to remain. Those blind to the ultimate agenda of Islam - global domination - believe that the West's liberal, tolerant, Enlightenment-led traditions will be somehow change Islam and its most devout adherents. The lessons of history will ensure that they are doomed to disappointment. Thus the only way forward, if Europe is to be saved at this late hour, is for many more politicians like Seehofer to speak up, loudly and clearly. There are millions of people all over the continent waiting for their mainstream leaders to show common sense and to wake up to reality. Compassion and tolerance towards migrants should always inform the policies of Western states but only in the context of safeguarding and guaranteeing the prevailing rights and way of life of their own native citizens.

Well now, where do you start then. The most dangerous woman in Europe, nightmare Merkel, the Islamic mouthpiece of Europe, has at long last decided to tell the truth about what is really going on in Germany today. For years now her critics have been shot-down in flames for daring to question her open door policy by being mocked, branded racists & everything else in the left wings box of dirty tricks. But why now has she sheepishly decided that she needed to say something, well it's because she's been caught out lying to the German people & now it's an exercise in damage limitation as she needs to keep her coalition together & not give the right the opportunity to oust the left. However, I do wonder how much longer the German people will continue to swallow this failing Chancellor's failed policies? Britain is being vilified for its decision to leave the eu (or evil empire of the elite) & being accused of bringing down the glorious project but in truth it's not really about the UK its about saving Merkel & Germany the banker of the failed euro. It's often said that politics is a dirty game which it is but I would in those famous words of that detective Sherlock Holmes 'the games a foot' Mrs. Merkel

Shouldn't the title be? "Germany belongs to Islam"?

The Western European political leadership has abandoned its heritage in an attempt to foist multiculturalism on its peoples. It is interesting to note that it is Eastern Europeans who are at the forefront of rejecting mass Islamic resettlement. If one reads some history it becomes easy to see why. Unfortunately, when the times call for a Charles of Lorraine or Jan Sobieski we get Angela Merkel.

Seehofer is certainly right, and I don't doubt that he intends to do something about it, but Merkel and the socialists won't let him. They will restrict his actions through the laws and courts until, if he's able to accomplish anything at all, it will be to little to have a noticeable effect.

If the German people want anything done to drive out these invaders and restore order, they're going to have to elect a party to run the government that will do it. Even with AfD in power, they would have to leave the EU to escape the restriction of their laws and human rights charter to have the freedom to act.

Horst Seehofer strikes the ball with clear firmness - dead center!

Merkel's ridiculous diatribe. "It is indisputably obvious that Islam now belongs to Germany." Is so laughable it interferes with my breathing! In Britain however we have a few million who are neither of use nor ornament, let the silly lady give us a wink and she can have the lot - carriage paid of course.

Seriously, this whole idea of multiculturalism is daft beyond the belief of hedgehogs, let alone simple minded female politicians. Perhaps it stems from football teams, a few brief years ago the players came from the towns, or countries that bore their names, now they come from all over the place. Puzzled why the players are now not of mixed gender, to pander to the current daftness of equal opportunities.

Apologies for my triteness.

Oh joy, so calling no-go zones by name is a step in the right direction. Snore.

That's little picture. The big picture is how does Germany (England, Belgium, Sweden, France, etc.) get rid of the slime that they have gone out of their way to import into their countries? The muslims have made it perfectly clear, that they have no intention of assimilating. They are there to take over Europe, and will leach all the welfare they can along the way. God help Europe because their feckless leaders can't and won't. Then again, it's the European voters who elect the Mays, Macrons, Merkels, etc.

A very satisfying account of the changing face of politics in Germany. For quite a while now, EU leaders like Merkel have appeared as though they had tripe for brains - and it is still a struggle to comprehend what possible gain Germany accrued from taking in millions of migrants/refugees, who refused to work, and who hated them. Merkel is now 'on the run' so to speak. She is facing a serious challenge for power from the rational right who desire to live, and who insist that Germany be a country of laws, respect for the individual, and all that democracy obtains. It has been noted by these political challengers, that while immigrants and refugees are welcome to partake in all that the country offers, they are NOT welcome to scheme, plot and plan to overtake the legally appointed government, nor are they free to pursue no go areas to establish a kind of autonomy in Germany. Islam is not compatible with any Judeo Christian EU country, for the simple reason that it is an ideological movement focused on triumphalism. Inviting a destructive element into any arena is suicide. Angela Merkel has induced her countrymen to drink the cup of suicide and defeat. She has betrayed her country. She, and those like her, must go.

I see Frau Merkel and her supporters as an extension of Hitler's Germany; both wanted to control Europe, but whereas Hitler had his henchman brutalise and murder his opponents, Frau Merkel is allowing Islam to do the same to Germany and Europe. As well, both schmooched with Islam and many Nazis went to the ME after the war to teach potential jidadis how to fight.

It is refreshing to know that Herr Seehofer and others are speaking sense for once, but they have a monumental task to convert all the German lovers of Islam. Since Frau Merkel has once again been appointed chancellor, It would appear that the German people in general approve of her destructive policies.

When she, like Hitler, realise they have failed, it will be too late to send the Islamic hordes back to where they came from and restore Europe to her former Judeo/Christian heritage.

The political class do not want to accept what ordinary citizens know and understand. Furthermore, they are globalists
who do not believe in democracy or sovereign countries. Open boarders are what they want as long as it does not
impact on them. Also they are politically correct extreme left, liberal hypocrites who think that if you disagree with their
evil beliefs you are stupid or bad, when it is their views and behaviour that is distorted and shallow. The liberal left have
had their day people are opening their eyes and calling them out. They are afraid of genuine debate and shut down
debate by shouting out slogans that have no meaning, or using violence. They are not interested in the truth.

Well I'm sure his political career will be short lived once he is labeled a racist a bigot unsympathetic and intolerant.

And of course a Nazi...

It seems to me from what I have read on this site and elsewhere, that Germany increasingly belongs to Islam.

What a "brave new world"! Some would say Germany now has a chance to survive.

Mr. Seehofer is indisputably correct in his statements about the role Islam plays within the confines of Muslim nation's, and now abroad, in Europe.

My question is "why?" the sudden truth of these realities connected to "uncontrolled immigration" took so long to be seen by the powers in authority. So many have been hurt. So much damage has occurred. Political correctness is a blindfold. Multiculturalism is only a word. Implementing that term as if it were an action word or verb, has never really been a political platform any party could afford to support because it has shown itself to be very costly and exploitable by individuals who would have everyone believe that a great foreigner is: undocumented, illegal, gets jobs, also gets some assistance, and goes to college as as a "Dreamer", excells in sports, and has parents who brought them up here in an "undocumented" status and we should uphold them as true citizens!

My response to all of that is: Let us not be stupid, let us not dispense with the rule of law as it pertains to legal immigration, and let us not EVER reduce the status of legal American citizens whose citizenship helps to "secure the blessings of liberty and justice" by upholding the law. ASKING us to change our immigration laws is NOT the same as creating a personal circumstance that characterizes our immigration laws as difficult or outdated. Even if true, it is a corrupt idea to attempt to override the nation that feeds and clothes you while you perpetuate an illegal status.

I totally agree. It is not necessarily the Muslims who are at fault, but the fault of the various governments miscalculations when they assumed that Muslims are like us and they are not. Rules should have been in place from the start and anyone breaking these laws should have been deported from wherever they came from. Let them fight their own wars which it where they belong.

Since Anglela Merkel allowed hoards of Muslims to enter and live in Germany, the country has deteriorated greatly. Among Merkel's mistake was not vetting any of the Muslims she brought in and allowing enormous latitude in their behaviour and attitude. By not insisting that Muslims follow the rules, mores and values of the country where they were so generously allowed to live, Muslims have taken the attitude that they can maintain their own customs and values. As a result, there is great confusion in Germany, to put it mildly, and nobody knows where the country stands or how its people should be treated. Too many Muslims get away with all kinds of behaviour that would never be allowed to Germans yet nothing is done to curb this trend. It would seem that unless Germany and Germans do something to rectify this trend, Germany is on the road to perdition.

Seehofer was asked the wrong question and gave the wrong answer. Islam not only doesn't belong to Germany, it doesn't belong in Germany.

WOW! Bravo!!! What Courage!!! I am Jewish and was born in Essen, Germany under the Nazis and am happy to see a new approach in Germany. I hope that other countries in Europe will follow suit. We escaped and got to the U.S. just in time by 4 months. Germany has done a lot to expiate the sins of the past. it is a thriving country and should continue doing that. I think we should call it a country with Judeo-Christian roots and values. This is a wonderful first step.

Kudos for Seehofer. Shame on Merkel. "Muslims belong to Germany, their religion also belongs to Germany, Islam too." Really? Obviously she has no clue what ISLAM is all about, never read the Quran, never read the Sira, not familiar with the Hadith. Moreover, how is it possible based on 1400 years of violent and bloody Islamic history that a trained physicist like Merkel is able to make such stupid statements?

Germany's new interior minister, Horst Seehofer is a sensible man. Democracy will prevail when democratic principle are upheld or advanced.

No Go Zones are a conspiracy against the people and should be called out and dealt with by the proper authorities - the police. They should not suffer political interference or political correctness.

"Muslims have to live with us, not next to or against us". That is the most common-sense comment I have heard about the Islamisation of Europe.

Hopefully Horst Seehofer will gain traction and others will understand his words are the only solution to Sweden, England, Germany and the rest of Europe.

At last let common sense prevail. Let us all understand and accept that Islam is not a religion. It is an ideology, and all those Muslims that come to Europe to benefit from the democracy that is on offer to them accept those benefits but who refuse to integrate and continue to say "Islam first" reassess or return to where they come from. Sharia Law is not acceptable in Europe.

At last! But how long has it taken Frau Merkel to see and fully understand the consequences of her open door policies? It's okay being wise after the event, but Merkel has taken stupidity to a whole new level. It does show that she hasn't a clue how Islam works, and unfortunately, she's not alone in this. We in Britain are also being lead by a woman who still maintains that Islam is peaceful. Even after yet another grooming gang ring has been outed in Telford, Shropshire. We are continually lied to and many in this country are beginning to get a little fed up. Certain media outlets still fail to report the truth when it comes to Muslims, much is hidden from the public, despite some of the crimes committed by Muslims causing a great deal of harm, particularly to young girls and their families. Muslims are a protected species in Britain. People are not allowed to speak out against Islam and the cultural practices. This is causing even greater tensions, but the government seem determined to protect their chosen people at all costs, even if it means many young girls lives being ruined by Muslim grooming gangs. I hope the German government will do a much better job of protecting their citizens than Britain does at present. Freedom of speech taken away, people imprisoned for bringing it to the public's attention that 4 Muslims had raped a 16 year old girl who had gone into a shop to ask for directions. This is the sort of government and police force we have these days. They protect the offenders and imprison those who expose rapists and grooming gangs! I seriously hope that German politicians and others throughout European countries do a much better job than ours in Britain have. At least now, it appears that Frau Merkel has at last realised the monster she has admitted to her country, I hope more will follow!

While our Judeo-Christian heritage initially shaped our European society, it was further enriched by the Enlightenment and the principles of scientific enquiry. Western society is essentially organic, revising and re-shaping understanding in the wake of new knowledge. This is what has made it vibrant and humane. Moreover, it is a society that is self-questioning and self-correcting. Free speech challenges secrecy and the abuse of power. Contrast this with a politico-religious ethos like Islam, frozen forever in the edicts and prononcements of a seventh century warlord,incapable of self-criticism or beneficial change; whose only response to intellectual challenge or criticism is to scream, 'Kill.'

Tragically, the west is allowing self-criticism which enables fruitful change, to degenerate into self-destruction, prostrating itself in false guilt before this terrifying theo-fascism masquerading as a peaceful religion. If the West is to survive, we must change and be prepared to defend the most vigorous, inventive, liberating culture the world has ever known if we are not to see it engulfed by a destructive, nihilistic force that will usher in a new Dark Age.

Excellent and heartwarming comments for Horst Seehorfer. Like America, Germany is -- or was -- a Judeo-Christian nation built on a solid foundation of Judeo-Christian values. The Nazis trashed those Judeo-Christian values and just as surely, if Germany does not do something, the Muslims will trash them too. Germany must return to Judeo-Christianity before it is too late.

I wish Germany the best in dealing with the Islamic invasion of Europe. It may be too late to reassert Christianity, or at least Christian values into Germany. Still, better late than never, but expect violent push back by the Islamic invaders. They have plans to over take Europe and will not easily settle for anything less, their so-called religion demands it. The push-back will be far more violent than it might have been had the German political class not refused to publicly acknowledge the adverse consequences of the Islamic invasion and impose politically correct responses upon those people who challenged the Islamic invasion of Germany.

Too late! They brought with them the PA/ Hamas innovations: Knifing, car ramming, suicide bombing. Europe you are well done! Open the door more or shut it down makes no difference. Europe is finished!
