The Thilo Sarrazin debacle has caused BILD — a major German MSM outlet — to come out unconditionally in favor of freedom of speech. The following article is part of that trend. Henrik Ræder Clausen posted a translation at Europe News, and it is reproduced below with his permission.
It must be permissible to say…
BILD Zeitung 4 September 2010
These are sentences most Germans would sign without hesitating. Sentences that formulate misunderstandings, frequently catastrophic, in our country. In spite of this, they are sentences that in Germany trigger anguish, strife and furious discussions. BILD is of the opinion: We need NO ban on free speech! Especially not for inconvenient sentences such as these!
“German should be the language we hear in our schools”
Fact: Children and youngsters who do not speak proper German have no chance to rise in society and tend to descend into violence and crime. Among repeat offenders (five offences or more), youth of Turkish origin have a prominent share of 8.3 percent. Where Turkish immigrants are well integrated, the rate of violence falls remarkably. Foreign youth have an unemployment rate twice that of Germans. One of the main reasons: Lack of ability to speak German.
“Whoever rejects work, deserves no support”
Fact: Whoever rejects “reasonable employment”, should count on a loss of support. Government support (€359 a month) can be reduced by 30%, and in repeat cases fall away entirely. However, the employment agencies rarely use this clause. Countrywide only 2.5% of the unemployed are hit by this sanction. Most frequently in Bavaria, where up to 6.2% are sanctioned, and most infrequently in the East German areas, at places only 0.6%—0.8%).
“Child molesters should be put away for good”
Fact: Back in 2001, prime minister Gerhard Schröder said: Child molesters “lock them up — forever!” However, legal precedent has hardly changed. In 2009 11,319 cases of child abuse were reported in Germany, with significantly higher unreported numbers, probably in the range of 100,000 cases. Over and over, repeat molesters are set free. Every second child molester is a repeat offender.
“I will not apologize for being German”
Fact: “Potato”, “F***ing German”, “Pork eater” — this is how Germans are being abused in Germany, in schools, in the subway, in the streets. Berlin youth judge Kirsten Heisig (died in July 2010) described in her book: “The End of Patience” the rampant hostility towards Germans that many immigrants nurture. She relates cases where young women of Turkish origin call young Germans “German whores”, and said: Germans “should be gassed”. Heisig makes clear: “If Germans were treating foreigners like that, we would call it ‘Racism’“. Furthermore, Germany is also a fine country that immigrants can also be proud of. Example: the German-Lebanese family in Berlin, who during the recent soccer world championships wrapped their entire house in the Black-Red-Golden colours of the German flag.
“Too many young immigrants are criminals”
- - - - - - - - -
Fact: In some districts of Berlin, the rate of violent crime among Muslim youth is, as estimated by youth judge Kristin Heisig (†2010), three times that of German youth. District prosecutor of Berlin Roman Reusch said in 2007: Roughly 80% of serious repeat offenders… are of immigrant background. And: Since 1985, the share of foreigners in German prisons has almost doubled. For instance in Hessen, 45% of the some 6000 prisoners are foreigners. Of these, Turks constitute the largest groups with 19,2%. To compare, the share of foreigners in the population at large is currently 8.9%.
“Whoever is working should not be the stupid one”
Fact: Many are working hard, but remain working poor — yet hardly receive more than welfare recipients. This includes care and cleaning staff, guards and waiters. The German Ministry of Labour has calculated: A waiter (married, 3 children) has an average disposable income of 1745 Euros, including child support. A family on unemployment support has, including housing support, almost 1980 Euros per month. The waiter may get promoted to earn close to 2290 Euros per month. This 310 Euros more than the family of the unemployed — but he has to work really hard each day for this.
“Foreigners who do not respect our laws have nothing to gain here”
Fact: Convicted criminals without German passports who have served their time (or part of it) in jail can then be deported. But: Criminal foreigners with a valid permit of residence can only be deported if they constitute a “clear and sufficiently serious threat to public order or security”. As this is usually not possible to prove, even for violent criminals, seemingly repentant criminals are frequently permitted to stay in Germany.
“We do not need to adapt to the foreigners, they should adapt to us”
Fact: More than two billion euros are spent by Germany each year for the purpose of ‘Integration’, according to calculations by Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. An entire industry is making a living from “Immigrant counselling” or courses to “Further intercultural competence”. An proverb goes: “When in Rome, do as the Romans do”. Thilo Sarrazin writes in his book: “It would suffice if Muslims would respect our laws, stop suppressing their women, do away with forced marriages, keep their youth away from crime, and make sure they support themselves. This is what matters.”
“Those who have not learned anything should not complain about not getting a job”
Fact: According to “Vocational Training Report 2010”, around 15 percent of young adults (20 to 29 years) have no vocational training, one out of five traineeships are aborted rather than completed. Businesses complain about an increasing number of young who are impossible to educate. Approximately 80,000 of the young aged 15 through 24 abandoned school in 2009 alone.
And this usually leads is straight to unemployment: Of the currently registered 3 million unemployed, 472,000 have not completed primary school, and many of these are long term unemployed.

As an exercise in Political Correctness, let's do a little transposing, shall we?
“English should be the language we hear in our schools”
“Whoever rejects work, deserves no support”
“Child molesters should be put away for good”
“I will not apologize for being American”
“Too many young immigrants are criminals”
“Whoever is working should not be the stupid one”
“Foreigners who do not respect our laws have nothing to gain here”
“We do not need to adapt to the foreigners, they should adapt to us”
“Those who have not learned anything should not complain about not getting a job”
Does anyone care to guess at the firestorm that would erupt if such things were said in America?
Little wonder that Thilo Sarrazin has been crucified in Germany. Goodness knows that he probably would have gotten the exact same treatment over here in the USA.
In either case, it just goes to show how dangerously close we are to the edge of surrendering away the entire framework of what made Western culture so great.
Mohammedans would agree with all of these tenets ...transposed to "Arabic" and "Islam".
Because they understand that the Struggle must be won by someone.
And they intend to win it.
Unlike the delusional, naive, suckered, suicidal EU and U.S. dupes.
Muslims have no problem with asserting their superiority.
A lesson of Will which the West has almost lost.
We shall either regain it, or be Destroyed by the Locust Ideology of the Koran.
Zenster, you're right about all of those things.
That's the big battle that is going on right now in Arizona.
It's the Obozo Administration versus the rest of us.
And here's what happens when we try to enforce our own laws:

Profitsbeard, I certainly do not think that Muslims would want child molesters put away for good.
After all, that would have applied to Muhammad himself.
Excellent piece. Couldn't have said it better myself.

BILD — a major German MSM outlet — to come out unconditionally in favor of freedom of speech.
An old fiddle with new strings, grinding along to a liberal progressive rant.

Shanzhai syndrome.
Example: the German-Lebanese family in Berlin, who during the recent soccer world championships wrapped their entire house in the Black-Red-Golden colours of the German flag.
The preference for imitation or lookalike nationals in this case Shanzhai Germans, over all or sections of the indigenous peoples particularly when based on economic points.
Intigration, assimilation and cultural regression the path to colonisation.

A "child" is defined differently under Sharia Law.
To "molest" one, they have to be 5 years old or less.
You can marry them once they hit the magical Mohammad-loving age of 6.
Just as "innocent" means something in Ummah-speak than it does in normal human terms.
No victim of the Jihad is is "innocent" if they are an infidel and the action is "for Allah".
That is why their deceitful imams always say: "Islam condemns striking 'innocent' people", because, technically, only a Muslim can be "innocent" under their rules of engagement.
(The cute codicil to this thinking is: if a Muslim kills an "innocent" Muslim during a terrorist strike, that Muslim becomes a "martyr" and goes right to Paradise, so the murderous act is not really "bad", just a "premature achievement of Paradise" for the accidentally dead.)
Profitsbeard: A "child" is defined differently under Sharia Law.

You are being far too restrictive in your definitions.
Neither five year-olds nor even infants (of either sex), are completely off-limits to Muslim men.
Trust Islam to have completely codified accetptable forms for sexually molesting an infant (i.e., thighing)
WARNING: Sexually explicit content. (no images)
That is why their deceitful imams always say: "Islam condemns striking 'innocent' people", because, technically, only a Muslim can be "innocent" under their rules of engagement.
I wish that there was some way to connect such highly selective methods of definition to congenital Muslim cognitive dissonance. Unfortunately, there really may not be any substantive link.
In this case, taqiyya would seem to be a more likely precursor. The depths to which this monumental deceit ravages Muslim minds and Islamic society cannot be plumbed. Such damage goes too deep, if not straight down to the innermost circles of Hell.
One of the only other possibilities is that adhering to a code (i.e., shari'a law), that permits, literally, anything − even including, as you noted, Muslims killing totally innocent Muslims − unmoors the human mind from all moral responsibilities in ways unimaginable to normanl civilized people.
This is one of the few explanations for how individuals could possibly rationalize flying fully loaded passenger jet airliners into occupied skyscrapers.
It is a recognition of this Muslim psychopathy that will necessarily need to inform Western determination to eridicate Islam from the face of this earth. The only other alternative is enduring an escalating series of terrorist atrocities that will eventually make the 9-11 attacks look like child's play.
A link in the previous Islam Watch article led to one by Serge Trifkovic at FrontPageMag.com. In it he notes:
This depraved view of sex, common in mainstream Moslem societies, is commonly found in the West only in prisons. In all cases it is the presence of love, affection, or equality among sexual partners that is intolerable.
This observation goes a long way towards explaining why Islam holds such a strong appeal to prison inmates. Through adoption of Islam, the criminal mind is released from much of its moral compunction by shari'a law.
It also explains quite a lot about the use of rape as a weapon and not just for the violent domination of those who cannot defend themselves. It is particularly illuminating with respect to how women must bear the brunt for inspiring − not just lustful urges − but even more common feelings of tenderness which must be just as readily dismissed for being a sign of personal weakness.
Finally, this wholehearted acceptance of total inequality − between men and women or lovers of any sort − resonates in complete harmony with shari'a law which demands that unbelievers never be treated as equals.
Thus is there a permanent and ineradicable two-tier system built in to all Muslim thought which even extends into what should be its most compassionate acts.
The pathology required to distort the very foundations of love and mutual respect is reflected time and again in nearly all of daily Islamic life.
Zenster-
Of course, you're right.
I was trying to keep the point narrow, and speaking mainly of the less-dogmatic Muslims who've allowed themselves to be influenced by the more advanced morality of the West (that their pious Mohammedan brethren are trying to infiltrate and destroy) not the Khomeini-esque slimebags who allow "temporary marriages"(de facto prostitution) and even encourage sanctified bestiality... as long as you sell the flesh of the raped animals outside your own village, ad nauseam.
Until the West grasps the enormity of this deathcult's depravities, we are fighting with both hands tied behind our backs against the unrestrained invasion by imperialistic Islam.
But, even "6 year old marriages", as an Islamic norm, is repellent enough to the average Westerner, so these fouler extremes may not need to be pulled from our argumentative sheaths to battle Islam.
But, if they must, they shall be.
(The Hadiths are a psychopathic horrorshow of ammunition waiting to be detonated against the pedophile warlord's creed.)
Fear not, Profitsbeard. We are so often in agreement that there can be no significant or meaningful argument between us.
Keep fighting the good fight.
Zenster-
Back at you, bro.
