Cologne Attacks: Yes, It Was Refugees

In the rapidly unfolding trainwreck for for the “mainstream” consensus on Third World immigration, multiculturalism, and political correctness in Angela Merkel’s Germany, the latest development is that 18 of the 31 suspects identified by German police so far are asylum seekers:

“BERLIN — At least 18 asylum seekers are among 31 people who have been identified so far by the federal police as having played a role in a violent assault on young women in the German city of Cologne on New Year’s Eve, the Interior Ministry said on Friday.

The police chief in Cologne was forced out of his job on Friday amid the growing uproar over the episode, which has ignited calls across the political spectrum for expelling convicted criminals, even if they are seeking asylum from war and persecution at home.

The 31 people linked to the violence in a police report include nine Algerians, eight Moroccans, five Iranians and four Syrians, said an Interior Ministry spokesman, Tobias Plate. Two Germans, an Iraqi, a Serb and a United States citizen were also among those linked to crimes that night, Mr. Plate said. …”

The refugees even boasted to the police that they had to be “nice” to them because they had been invited to come to Germany by Angela Merkel. Elsewhere in southern Germany, two German teenage girls were gang raped by Syrians on New Year’s Eve:

“Three Syrians have been arrested in southern Germany for the alleged gang rape of two teenage girls on New Year’s Eve, as reports flood in of sexual assaults against women across the country.

A 21-year-old man and two 14-year-old boys are being held in Weil am Rhein, a small town near the Swiss and German borders, for the alleged rape of two girls aged 14 and 15.

Prosecutors allege that the two girls were held for several hours and gang-raped after attending a New Year celebration at the home of the 21-year-old man in the nearby village of Friedlingen.
