Germany: Calls for Caliphate During 1,100-Strong Islamist Demonstration in Hamburg

Mutti Merkel's 'refugees are welcome' during the jihadist invasion (falsely known as a 'refugee crisis') is coming back to bite Germany in the backside.

The radical protests coincided with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s European election campaigning in the same city.

An Islamist rally, held on Saturday in the German city of Hamburg—with more than 1,000 participants—is sending shockwaves through the nation’s media and political landscape. 

According to the organizers, who timed their rally to coincide with a visit from Chancellor Olaf Scholz, they wanted to raise their voices together and demonstrate against “Islamophobic reporting, both in recent weeks and in recent months.”

Amid a sizable police presence, widely circulated images demonstrate high levels of anti-German sentiment among the participants, despite no violent incidents and no arrests occurring.

Slogans calling Germany a “dictatorship of values” rang out, accompanied by the now all-too familiar “Allahu Akbar!” (God is great) being chanted in unison.

Most disturbingly, at least one placard read “a caliphate is the solution.”(A state led by a caliph, seen by the faithful as a political-religious successor to the Islamic prophet Muhammad, would almost inevitably result in a horrendous dictatorship, as the historical precedents all show.)

The Hamburg Office for the Protection of the Constitution, one of 16 state-security agencies, has identified the organizers of the rally as being closely affiliated with the group ‘Muslim Interaktiv,’The radical protests coincided with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s European election campaigning in the same city. which it classifies as a “confirmed extremist movement.”

In a press release published prior to  the demonstration, the government agency said that anyone taking part in this rally would be standing side by side with Islamists.

Online, their platform could appear harmless enough (its  ‘About’ section reads:

‘Muslim Interaktiv’ is an association of Muslims who have set themselves the goal of presenting Islam as a comprehensive way of life to Muslims living in Germany and encouraging them to practice Islam in all areas of life.

However, through careful selection of topics such as alleged ‘Islamophobia’, ‘Muslim Interaktiv’ insidiously works to make Muslims in Germany—and also in other parts of the (Western) world—adopt the role of an oppressed minority.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has yet to comment on the issue.

Federal Interior Minister Nancy Faeser (SPD) told Der Tagesspiegel that it was “hard to bear” such a demonstration. “It is a good thing that Hamburg police countered [possible] criminal acts with a large contingent,” she said. 

CDU Secretary General Carsten Linnemann took issue with Faeser’s rather tepid response. “Many millions of people around the world are being brutally oppressed by Islamist regimes and are often fleeing to free Europe. It is therefore all the more scandalous that ‘hate demonstrators’ are once again taking to the streets in Hamburg in favor of a caliphate—despite full-throated announcements made by Interior Minister Faeser that such things would not be tolerated,” he told Bild am Sonntag. The constitutional state must “finally defend itself and show strength.”

Alexander Throm, spokesman on the CDU/CSU parliamentary group’s domestic policy, called the demonstration a “disgrace.” Anyone who agitates against Germany as an alleged “dictatorship of values” and calls for a caliphate “has no place here and must leave the country as quickly as possible,” he declared.

Logically, Hamburg CDU MdB (member of parliament) Christoph Ploß went one step further and called for ‘Muslim Interactive’ to be banned. On X, he wrote that Chancellor Olaf Scholz’ coalition government should “no longer trivialize” radical Islam. 

When more than a thousand Islamists march through the middle of Hamburg, the left-wing parties should finally wake up and oppose Islamism.

Hubert Aiwanger, Chairman of the Freie Wähler (Free Voters) party and Bavarian Minister of Economic Affairs wrote: 

Such an anti-constitutional rally to abolish democracy and human rights should be broken up immediately, the participants’ personal details recorded and they should be deported if possible.

At least legally, this is possible—if the political will is there.

“A foreigner whose stay endangers the free and democratic basic order in Germany can be expelled,” FDP parliamentary group deputy leader Konstantin Kuhle told Die Welt. Anyone who calls for the abolition of fundamental rights, such as freedom of the press, at a demonstration fulfills this requirement, Kuhle continued. 

“The group ‘Muslim Interactive’ has close ties with the already banned Islamist organization Hizb ut-Tahrir and has been campaigning for the introduction of a caliphate for a long time,” explained Lamya Kaddor, domestic policy spokesperson for the Green parliamentary group, told the same publication. 

There have long been calls for a ban on organizations and associations with such close ties to Hizb ut-Tahrir. Faeser was called upon to “implement a ban on such groups as quickly as possible,” the Green politician added. 

Once Elon Musk got wind of the story, he gave it a dedicated post on his platform, wondering aloud: “Surely demanding overthrow of the government in Germany is illegal?”

Now consider how forcefully the German political establishment goes after fringe non-muslim extremist groups as well as its arch political rival, the sovereigntist Afd (Alternative for Germany) party. The kid gloves treatment given to resident Islamists—by far the largest terror threat to Germany—continues to astound.
