IN AN INTERVIEW WITH WELT AM SONNTAG NEWSPAPER, the chief of the Alternative for Germany party came to the defense of the much-maligned adjective völkisch [meaning popular; of the people, national]. Naturally the liberal German media is tearing into her. They call the word racist because it was used by the National Socialists. It stems, of course, from the word Volk [the people; nation], in common usage still today and fully acceptable.

ELECTIONS ARE GOING ON  EVERYWHERE NOW AND FACT-CHECKING IS A BIG TOPIC for news editors and pundits.

So I ask, why is there never any fact-checking for news stories that reference the so-called Holocaust? Case in point: an article posted yesterday at DW.com about German prosecutors “shelving” their case against a 92-year-old woman who served as a radio-operator at the Auschwitz main camp. The article ends with the obligatory mention of “six million,” which itself is a figment of the imagination.

However, in this instance, it is written that

During the Holocaust, the Nazis killed more than 6 million people, most of them Jews, in a deliberate plan of extermination that reached a terrible peak between 1941 and 1945.

The AfD billboard in the background reads "So that Germany is not destroyed."

Alternative für Deutschland party representatives entered Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania's 71-seat Schwerin assembly Sunday for the first time according to exit poll results. Coming in at 21% puts them in 2nd place after the Social Democratic Party.

Incumbent Premier Erwin Sellering, a Social Democrat who has governed in coalition with the regional CDU for the past 10 years, was returned with 30 percent, according to initial results.

This puts Angela Merkel's Christian Democratic Party in third place with  19%.

Ursula Haverbeck sits head and shoulders above the ruling political parties in Germany, secure in knowing she speaks from the pristine realm of truth.

JUST LIKE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE "HOLOCAUST" NON-HISTORICAL NARRATIVE, trying to get an accurate picture of the persecution of Ursula Haverbeck is made very difficult by the mainstream media.

Even Wikipedia is not up to date on Haverbeck in 2016!

Deutsche Welle, Germany's state news service, ran a September 2nd article (quickly removed from the "Top Stories" page - I caught it just in time!) reporting the 87-year old “Nazi Grandma” was sentenced to 8 months in jail for a letter she sent to Detmold Mayor Rainer Heller complaining about the trial of Reinhold Hanning in that city. This is different from the 10-month sentence she was given late last year for a TV interview.

ERNST NOLTE, A GERMAN REVISIONIST HISTORIAN WHO BROKE ACADEMIC TABOOS by equating Nazism with Bolshevism and who was denounced as an apologist for Hitler and even the Holocaust, died on Thursday [Aug. 18] in Berlin. He was 93.

His family told the daily newspaper Der Tagesspiegel that he had died in a hospital.

Professor Nolte, a respected scholar of fascism, provoked an ideological uproar in 1986 by suggesting in an essay that Nazisim had been a logical response in Germany to an “existential threat” posed by the Russian Revolution and its aftermath. He also argued that Hitler’s extermination of Jews and other minorities was comparable to the mass murders engineered by Stalin in the Soviet Union, where victims were singled out by economic and social class as enemies of the Communist state.

FRAUKE PETRY HAS SAID GOVERNMENT HAS LOST ITS STATE MONOPOLY to protect the public, especially in thinly populated areas.

As reported by DW.com, AfD leader Petry said there were no grounds for concern when citizens armed themselves for self-protection in areas where austerity measures by national and regional governments had systematically ruined police services. She was quoted as saying:

Every law abiding person should be in the position to protect himself, his family and his friends.

Immediately Green Party co-leader Katrin Göring-Eckardt denounced Petry for wanting to “put weapons in the wrong hands,” saying that trained recruits should be hired where police forces were depleted. As if German people cannot be trusted with a private weapon for self-defense, which is exactly what the Green party and other left-leaning parties believe. And where do the “trained recruits” come from? This is just the Left's historic demand for strict gun-control to keep weapons in government's hands and the people powerless.

IN SAXONY-ANHALT, A FORMER EAST GERMAN STATE in the Federal Republic of Germany (right), the highest court threw out a financial judgment against Hans Püschel, who is a former mayor of Krauschwitz, a small town of 600 people.

Püschel had been convicted in 2013 in a criminal court and fined a total of 3,000 euros for controversial comments written in a blog about the “Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe” in central Berlin and on the influence of Jews in German society.

Signs showing Merkel with blood on her hands saying "We Can" are seen at the Saturday, July 30 mass protest in Berlin.

REPORTS OF UP TO 10,000 anti-immigrant demonstrators gathered at Berlin's Washington Square on Saturday to listen to speeches and chant “Merkel must go” and “We are the people.” They finished by marching through the streets behind a gigantic "Merkel Muss Weg" banner.

Thousands more gathered throughout German cities to protest the government's "open-door" policy that many have blamed for four brutal terrorist attacks that left 13 dead over the last two weeks.

Here is a video from RT of the event - move forward to 32 min. to start.

WHAT NEXT?! THIS IS NOT THE FIRST RAPE OF A 70-PLUS-YEAR-OLD German woman by a non-White foreign “refugee(s)", but perhaps the first one that took place in a cemetery, which this 79-year old had been in the habit of visiting every morning.

She went early to the Central Cemetery in Ibbenbüren (North Rhine-Westphalia), like at 6 a.m. On this day, July 25, a 40-year-old Black man, a known “refugee” from the neighboring town of Hörstel, happened to be there and sexually attacked her. Did he know she regularly went there? Was he lying in wait for her? Whether planned or spontaneous, when the elderly woman was attacked she cried out and her shouts brought a witness to the scene, who immediately called the police. They arrived to find the Black, sex-hungry Eritrean still engaged in the act. He did not resist when they arrested him, it was reported.

Ansbach, Bavaria police guard crime scene after an explosion at a music festival killed one and injured twelve Sunday night, July 24, 2016.

Sunday night a man carrying an explosive device into an open-air music festival in the town of Ansbach, near Nuremberg, was killed and twelve other people injured, three critically, when the device detonated.

Update: The man is now identified as Mohammad Daleel (right), a 27 year old Syrian asylum seeker who arrived in Germany two years ago. His application for asylum was rejected last year, but he had been allowed to remain temporarily and was living in an apartment in the town. [Courtesy of the federal government, of course.] He had twice before tried to commit suicide and had received psychiatric care! 

He had in his possession a video in which he declared his allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Bagdadi, Islamic State's (IS) top leader. In examining the accommodation where the man lived, investigators also found materials to build more bombs, such as soldering iron and batteries. In addition, the officers found two mobile phones with multiple SIM cards and a laptop safe. Violent videos were stored with Islamist orientation and Salafist contents.
