Germany: Muslim migrant attempts jihad bombing, media presents him as native German

The primary task of the establishment media, not just in Germany but all over the West, is to make sure that nobody thinks ill of Islam or of the enterprise of mass Muslim migration into the West. It clearly doesn’t matter to them how much they have to bend the truth to fulfill this task.



“Media rewrites Syrian terrorists as ‘Lüdenscheiders’ and ‘Sauerländers,'” translated from “Medien schreiben Terror-Syrer zum ‘Lüdenscheider’ und ‘Sauerländer’ um,” JournalistenWatch, October 11, 2020 (thanks to Medforth):
Since Islam became part of Germany, attacks by Muslims – whether they are Islamicly motivated or as a result of traumatic experiences of flight – have been some of the most banal minor matters in the world in sunny Merkel’s Germany. So much so that the corresponding representatives of the “religion of peace” are being repackaged by the German media as native Germans.
This was once again marveled at yesterday in an exemplary manner in the case of the attempted terrorist attack at the Cologne-Deutz train station on Saturday before last: The Cologne police arrested a 21-year-old suspect in the matter. There are now only two options for reporting on such cases: Either the often-used phrase “a man” follows, with complete anonymization of the perpetrator’s ethnicity and origin.
Or – if it is a “potato” or native German, then naming the nationality is not only unproblematic, but an obligation in order to preventatively defuse “racist” prejudices. Therefore it is all the more astonishing what regional media from North Rhine-Westphalia made of the police report: They informed us that the perpetrator was a “young Lüdenscheider”. This remarkable formulation was used not only at WDR and in various Cologne daily newspapers, but also in “DerWesten”.
The headline already mentioned the “Sauerlander” who had meanwhile confessed to having deposited the explosive device in the toilet of a regional train. His motive is “disturbing” and “bitter”: he had acted “out of dissatisfaction with his precarious social situation”, according to the police; with his act he had “wanted to attract public attention”. So everything was quite harmless – had it not been for the former President of the Office for the Protection of the Constitution, Hans-Georg Maaßen, who spoke out and spoiled the beautiful idyll of the German bomber with a little background information:
For the sake of completeness: The “man from the Sauerland” was born in Syria in 1999 and has a residence permit as an asylum seeker.
But hey! This is what Sauerland does not know: You have the blues, are dissatisfied with your life, then you just pack a nail bomb with some explosives and put it in the station toilet. It can happen! Presumably because of this, and because his motive was so “affecting”, the Cologne police released the 21-year-old after his confession – on the highest orders of the Düsseldorf Public Prosecutor’s Office. This is Germany … Loriot, creator of the legendary Mr. Müller-Lüdenscheid, would probably be speechless. (DM)
