Earlier today we posted a speech by Christine Tasin from an event in Paris, which was organized by SIEL (Souverainité, Identité Et Libertés) on February 11. It took place on a cold night in Paris, and the meeting was convened on short notice, yet even so, 300 Parisians came to the Place of Human Rights in front of the Trocadero to hear inspiring speeches.
Below is the speech given at the event by Pierre Cassen of Riposte Laïque. Many thanks to Oz-Rita for the translation, and to Vlad Tepes for the subtitling:

When we consider the Groping Jihad that entered public awareness on New Year’s Eve in Cologne, we think of young women as the principal victims of the taharrush attacks by massed “testosterone bombs” in the public spaces of Europe.
However, we could just as readily speak of a “Child-Rape Jihad”, since culture-enriching men really do like their “infidel whores” young. Little girls, mostly, but pre-teen and teenaged boys also figure as likely targets, as exemplified by the horrific attack on a ten-year-old boy in a Viennese public pool. Mothers must be watching their children anxiously now as asylum centers sprout up like mushrooms in middle-class residential neighborhoods all over Western Europe, but especially in Germany and Austria.

Letter to a Daughter
by Lisa Grüner February 11, 2016
My Dear Daughter,
I am sorry to have to take back the freedoms that you have worked so hard for. You were finally permitted to ride to school alone. And you were capable of it. You did it very well and you found your way to school without being sidetracked. You were at school and in class on time. I am sorry I have to take this freedom back. I have still less confidence in letting you ride home alone. Too many girls and women are accosted and harassed on the street. Just among my acquaintances, five have been victims of violence and robbery. Sometimes in broad daylight.
I was worried the first time you wanted to go to the supermarket alone to get milk. I stood on the balcony and watched half of the distance. I was relieved when you rang the doorbell and were back again. You came back with the milk, the receipt and the change. It increased your self-confidence and you looked forward to Saturdays. Because you were allowed to buy a little more each time.
I’m sorry I have to take back this freedom. Several days ago, in the asylum residence one street over, they cleaned out a drug den.
You graduated your swimming course with flying colors. You love the water and love to go swimming. At first, I sat on the edge of the pool and watched to see if you really stayed up and felt secure. You swim really wonderfully. I could be confident that you could fool around and have fun with your friends without my having to sit in all the time.
I’m sorry that I will never again let you play in the water alone and unwatched. And even less will I let you and your friends go alone to the swimming pool. Even though the pool is right in the neighborhood. I know of three swimming pools where girls were molested.
We have a really great playground near us. You were there a lot when you were in kindergarten. That was three years ago. You knew a lot of children who played there. By now, you don’t know anyone there. Now and then, you were allowed to go there and play with your older girl friends. Without adults.
I’m sorry I can’t let you go to the playground anymore. There are youngsters and men sitting there whose presence disturbs me. To be clear, they scare me. I will not go there anymore. And you will absolutely not go there.
The following article was published earlier this month in the Berlin Morgenpost. The translation by Nash Montana was published earlier at Vlad Tepes in a slightly different form.
Gang of youths punishes kiosk owner for selling alcohol
Three men in a Neukölln kiosk were attacked by thirty children and youths. The dispute was over the selling of alcohol.
The Gropiusstadt area in Neukölln is a social hot spot in Berlin South. The Kurdish owner of a snack bar and kiosk was forced to experience that last Sunday evening. Not for the first time, he says.
“Every school vacation, the kids come gather here every evening and commit mischief on the plaza in front of the train station,” the 53-year-old said on Monday. The night before, the so called mischief escalated.
“First about ten to fifteen children, aged nine to twelve or maybe thirteen, popped up. They very specifically were provoking us, and they knocked at the backdoor as well as the front door of my establishment and they tried to block the exit,” the owner says. The children threw stones and did damage to the side of the building.
The 53-year-old called the police at about 7:30pm, but when police arrived, the children were gone already. But not for long.
One hour later, around 8:30pm, they returned, with reinforcements. “Suddenly in front of us there weren’t just children, but a group of youths aged fourteen to twenty-one,” the owner’s son says. The group hurled insults, and they attacked, under the pretense that because alcohol was sold here, therefore “they had to be punished.” According to the kiosk owner they were all Muslim youths.
Blow to the back of the head
The attacks escalated to hands-on fights, in which the son of the owner received quite a few contusions. His friend, trying to help, was hurt above the eye. The owner received a blow to the back of the head and went down. By the time he got back up, the mob had disappeared.
Now the police are investigating for breach of the peace, assault/bodily harm, and property damage.Whether the motive for the attack really was about selling alcohol could not be confirmed by the police.
Additionally, the police also could not confirm whether these attacks increase during school vacations. But it couldn’t be excluded. As a speaker for the Morgenpost said, the attack on Sunday night wasn’t the first of its kind.
Below is a brief guest-essay from our Pennsylvania correspondent Brad Lena.
The Conundrum: Progressivism and Islam by Brad Lena
In America, particularly in the Academy, history and culture are taught as understood by Progressive ideology.
In general, law, politics, economics, gender, race, sexuality and religion are constructs imposed by those with sufficient will to power. The United States being a case in point; just ask them.
Progressives, understanding that the human being is compliant and malleable, seek to address this by the concept of “white privilege” The idea being that once white people come to understand that their white privilege is centuries old and deeply implanted in the white worldview, they will assume a more just, fair, inclusive and loving understanding of their crimes against humanity.
The question is will Islam be subject to the same ideological and most likely legal sanctions? Or will Progressives make the argument that only White Americans are the perpetrators of privilege? It is self-evident that Islamic values are the antithetical to Progressive values. Islamic culture and values have been particularly resistant to the Progressive nuanced understanding of human action.
In the modern era, ideology — supported by technology, infrastructure, reliability and access — is impervious to conflicting evidence. Unfortunately for Progressives, evidence that Islam is in conflict with every value they hold dear is stark and abundant. Where are the celebrity pledges of solidarity with the women, homosexuals, transgendered, atheists, and animal rights advocates who are being suppressed or slaughtered (remember, Christians don’t count)?
Where are academics and editorialists demanding that Muslims in America must accommodate to Progressive modernism or face sanction, legal prosecution, insults and condemnation similar to those brought to bear against the plague of white privilege?
Where are the protests? Why hasn’t ESPN weighted in on this issue? Now that The Donald has broken the PC taboo, Progressives will be confronted on their silence, duplicity and betrayal of the people who believe them here and abroad. If not, the 50%+ of American Muslims who desire Sharia Law will remind them.
A week ago we reported on the stirring sentiments expressed by General Christian Piquemal, the former commander of the French Foreign Legion, just before he was arrested at the PEGIDA demonstration in Calais.
As most readers will be aware of by now, after being arrested and then sent for a brief stay in the hospital for “health reasons”, Gen. Piquemal recanted any involvement with PEGIDA, disassociated himself from “racism”, and emphasized that he had never been involved in organizing the demo in Calais.
It was obvious that he had been gotten to. The government presumably sent an emissary to the General’s bedside while he was indisposed and made him an offer he couldn’t refuse. He may be too old to threaten directly, but perhaps he has a son or daughter in the civil service whose career might come to an abrupt and regrettable end. Or something similar…
Anyway, the PEGIDA-aligned movements in France must now soldier on without the assistance of a four-star general. Below is a brief speech by Christine Tasin of Résistance Républicaine given last Thursday night at a rally at the Eiffel Tower. In it she talks about Gen. Piquemal’s abrupt reversal, and how the movement will continue without him.

The New Migration Period by Peder Jensen
It is totally unrealistic to solve social problems through the migration of billions of people. Most social problems in southern countries must be resolved locally.
Before the Neolithic Revolution began 10,000-12,000 years ago, we were all hunter-gatherers. The number of people on this planet at that time has been estimated to between five and fifteen million human beings. A single major city such as Tokyo, Beijing, Seoul, Karachi, Mexico City, Lagos, Mumbai or Cairo now has more inhabitants than this.
The global population reached one billion people for the first time around the year 1800. From the time of the Neanderthals, it took all of the Earth’s peoples hundreds of thousands of years to achieve this population size. Since the Industrial Revolution, the global population has, over the past two hundred years, grown dramatically.
“The world’s population is now growing at around one Roman Empire every year”.
In the coming three decades, it is expected that Africa’s population alone will increase by more than one billion people. Combined with a huge population growth, modern means of transport are now creating the largest and fastest human migrations the world has ever experienced since our species first came into existence.
Population estimates for the Roman Empire at the beginning of our era range from 45 million to over 100 million people. A relatively common estimate is 60-80 million. Various estimates suggested a global population growth of between 70 and 80 million in 2015. The world population is thus growing at a rate of roughly one Roman Empire every single year. Today’s migrations are much larger and faster than the Migration Period we associate with the fall of the Western Roman Empire.
“The population growth in Egypt in less than a generation is thus larger than the population of all the Nordic countries combined.”
200,000 more per day
Let us stipulate that the global population increased by 73 million people in 2015. This corresponds to a global population growth of over 6 million people per month, around 1.4 million people per week, nearly 200,000 per day, more than 8327 per hour, almost 139 per minute and 2.3 per second. If you spend 30 seconds on grabbing a cold drink in the fridge, the planet’s population will have grown with perhaps 69 people during this time. If you spend half an hour on eating lunch, there will be around 4,164 more human beings on Earth after your lunch break.

And four out of ten would move to a Western country if the opportunity arises. George Osodi, AP / Scanpix]
In the year 2050, the Democratic Republic of the Congo is expected to have joined Nigeria and Ethiopia as one of the world’s ten most populous countries. Despite stagnating population numbers in Europe and East Asia, analysts expect that the world population will increase by billions of people during this century. Demographers believe that the Earth’s population may grow to between 9.6 and 12.3 billion people by 2100, perhaps more. Africa’s population could grow tremendously to between 3.5 and 5.1 billion people. By 2050, it is estimated that four out of ten of the world’s children could be an African.
Austrian Foreign Minister Sebastian Kurz says that as soon as Austria has admitted its quota of 37,000 “refugees”, Macedonia must close its borders to any further migrants. Austria will send troops to FYROM to facilitate this process.
In other news, French Prime Minister Manuel Valls warns that Europe must be prepared for future mass-scale Islamic terror attacks, which he says are a certainty.

In the following interview, Tania Groth of PEGIDA Denmark talks about the case of Flemming Nielsen, who was convicted of “racism” and fined for comparing the ideology of Islam with Nazism. Outraged Danish patriots have now chipped in to pay Mr. Nielsen’s fine and legal expenses, since he will be unable to appeal the verdict.
Many thanks to Vlad Tepes for conducting the interview and uploading the video:

In 58 minutes people collected DKK 9.400 (around €1259) to pay the fine and court costs. Please also note the public votes in the article: the Danish people DO NOT agree with the court, to say the least.

The following excerpt from a speech by Czech President Miloš Zeman was recorded at a conference in Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. Mr. Zeman had some very politically incorrect words to say about the mass immigration of Muslims into Europe. Once again, it is truly remarkable to hear such sentiments voiced by a sitting (not former) head of state in the European Union.
The man at the podium sitting to President Zeman’s left is Robert Fico, the prime minister of Slovakia, who has said very similar things to his own people on a number of occasions.

The following interview with Tatjana Festerling, one of the leaders of PEGIDA Dresden, was recorded and aired by TV Libertés just before last weekend’s Europe-wide PEGIDA demos. Rembrandt Clancy has kindly translated and subtitled the interview, and includes an introduction as well as a transcript.
Introduction by Rembrandt Clancy
Just prior to the Fortress Europe protests on 6 February 2016, Lionel Baland of the French Internet channel TV Libertés conducted an interview in German and French with the prominent PEGIDA leader Tatjana Festerling in Dresden. Below is the video record of that event. Mr. Baland, in his four-minute introduction to the interview, compares the reaction of France and the demographically weak Germany to the crisis, and addresses the difference between Eastern and Western Germany in respect to popular reaction.
With the aid of film excerpts, Baland describes the setting of the weekly demonstrations on Dresden’s Theaterplatz, drawing attention to artefacts ranging from the counter-revolutionary Wirmer flag to the magnificent architectural backdrop of the demonstrations. For example, Baland shows how the splendid baroque building the Semperoper, which overlooks the Theaterplatz where the demonstrations occur, is currently marred by a large screen flaunting multicultural propaganda.
In the interview itself, Tatjana Festerling covers the following topics:
1.
The specific event which triggered the founding of PEGIDA;
2.
Why the people of East Germany turn out more demonstrators than in the West of the country;
3.
The parallels between today’s demonstrations in East Germany and the Leipzig demonstrations of 1989, which were associated with the collapse of the East German regime;
4.
Whether Angela Merkel’s popularity in the official polls is a reflection of her true popularity;
5.
The difference between Viktor Orbán’s solution to the migration problem in Hungary, and former French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s ‘broken water main’ solution;
6.
The stance of the PEGIDA leadership toward the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party and the possibility of PEGIDA establishing a party of its own.
7.
PEGIDA’s strategy for the future.
TV Libertés provides its own introduction to the video as follows:
A TV Libertés team led by Lionel Baland and Nicolas de Lamberterie travelled to Dresden in January of 2016 to interview Tatjana Festerling, front-figure of PEGIDA and formerly a candidate of the movement for the office of mayor of Dresden.
TV Libertés is a nationally oriented Internet television broadcaster which began at the end of January 2014. At the time of the launching of the channel Martial Bild, the managing editor, declared that TV Libertés will be “non partisan, participatory, but also, and this is important, free and independent” (Metapedia, French).
Lionel Baland, TV LIBERTÉS: From the beginning of the migrant crisis, the German nation led by Angela Merkel represents the main driving force for calling upon migrants to out for Europe. Thus in 2015 Germany received more than a million migrants, and at the same time sermonised for them to be distributed among the various member states of the EU.
Few European countries have openly opposed this policy, except the four belonging to the Visegrád group [Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia].
The French governing elites have not contradicted Germany in this policy. However, a considerable difference between France and Germany is noticeable.
While the respective governments of France and Germany — whether by intention or toleration — have a corresponding policy in the migration crisis, the mood in the population is varied. This is shown as much by the results of elections as by opinion polls. While in France the national sentiments with regard to the migrant phenomenon appear rather strong, in Germany, the indifference of a demographically weakening population toward the migrants is surprising, being the migrants are more numerous than the yearly birthrates.
Up until the massive sex-attacks committed on New Year’s Eve, the Germans gave almost no reaction to the migration phenomenon. However, there is a genuine cleft within Germany, or better said, between two Germanys: West Germany, and the former East Germany, or the GDR, which was under Soviet influence for half a century.
In the Saxon capital Dresden, an unprecedented mobilisation took place against Merkel’s migration policy. This mobilisation was achieved by a movement founded in October 2014: PEGIDA. The acronym means “Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamisation of Europe”.
Every Monday several thousand people, sometimes tens of thousands, gather for a peaceful walk. Like the Gallic village of Asterix, which fought against the Romans, Dresden has come to be a symbol of Germany which will not go away.
This Germany appears with an original flag which many foreign visitors could take for the Norwegian flag. It is the Wirmer flag, also known as the “German Resistance flag of the 20th of July”, in reference to the attempt of German opponents of the Nazis to physically eliminate Hitler and his regime in 1944.
PEGIDA offshoots in other cities have not come close to such a success as in Dresden. But the rising popularity in Dresden is shown, among other things, by the fact that for several days the PEGIDA-hymn was at the top of Amazon’s song chart, so that Amazon announced that part of the profits from the sales would be donated in favour of organisations which help migrants.
In order to understand this Dresden phenomenon better, a team from the television broadcaster TV Libertés travelled to Dresden. This city of half a million inhabitants, also known as “Florence on the Elbe”, is well-known on account of the bombing it had to go through in February 1945 shortly before the end of the Second World War. The city, which had been completely destroyed, has since been for the most part rebuilt.
Some of the completely hyper-heated stones, which had been left over from the ruins of the Frauenkirche, were used for restoring the church to a form identical to the original.
The effect of PEGIDA in the city can be quickly ascertained: on the Theaterplatz, where the weekly demonstrations of the movement conclude, conspicuous multicultural propaganda announcements are continuously shown on a gigantic screen mounted on the Theater [Semper Opera House].
Fortunately Dresden has other advantages at its disposal, which make a visit to the city very pleasant, even in cold weather.
We are meeting with Tatjana Festerling just prior to the first demonstration of 2016. This dynamic 51-year-old woman is the spokesman of the PEGIDA movement; she was a candidate in 2015 in the mayoral election and received almost 10% of the votes.
A Somali immigrant named Mohamed Barry entered a restaurant in Columbus, Ohio and began slashing at patrons with a machete, wounding four of them, one of them critically. He reportedly thought the restaurant was Jewish-owned, when it was in fact owned by an Israeli Arab Christian. After being vigorously resisted by customers and staff, the assailant fled. When he was stopped by police shortly afterwards, he lunged at the officers with a knife and a machete, and was shot to death. The incident had a Mohammed Coefficient of 100%.
In other news, three Pakistani “refugees” were arrested for allegedly raping a 19-year-old male compatriot at an asylum shelter where they all resided in Vicenza, Italy.

I must point out that the city of Elsinore, in which this odious judgment was handed down, is the same that prompted Marcellus to say (in Hamlet): “Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.” To add insult to injury, the legendary Holger Danske, the Danish hero who will awaken to save his country in its time of greatest need, sleeps in the cellars of Kronborg Castle at Elsinore. Surely at least one of Holger’s eyes is now blinking open …?

Man fined for racism following comment on Facebook
The court in Elsinore has sentenced a man fined for comparing Islam with Nazism.
By JOHANNES KAAS FALLESEN, Jyllands-Posten
“…The ideology of Islam is every bit as loathsome, nauseating, oppressive and dehumanizing as Nazism. The massive immigration of Islamists into Denmark is the most devastating event Danish society has suffered in recent historical times.”
Thursday morning these words cost Flemming Nielsen 1,600 kroner. He was sentenced to four day-fines of 400 kroner for violating the Penal Code §266b paragraph 1, also called the racism paragraph. This is from a judgment rendered by a Court in Elsinore.
The accused, Flemming Nielsen, had written the words on Facebook in late November 2013.
“I did not violate the article I have been accused of. I did not mention the religion of Islam or Muslims with one word. I referred to Islamists and the ideology of Islam,” said Flemming Nielsen to TV2.dk immediately after the verdict.
It would therefore be obvious that Flemming Nielsen should be able to appeal the verdict, which he believes has restricted his freedom of expression, to a higher court.
However, he will not be able to do this as the fine falls below the minimum limit by which such judgments can be appealed.
Austrian Foreign Minister Sebastian Kurz says that as soon as Austria has admitted its quota of 37,000 “refugees”, Macedonia must close its borders to any further migrants. Austria will send troops to FYROM to facilitate this process.
