Up to 1,050 people part of group’s “hardline wing” or otherwise suspected of links to Hezbollah were arrested, detained, questioned, and hunted down by German police today as it adds Hezbollah to list of ‘terrorist’ organisations.
Police conducted early morning raids in Germany to detain suspected members of the political group, which is based in Lebanon under the leadership of Hassan Nasrallah.
Security officials believe as many as 1,050 people in Germany are part of Hezbollah’s “extremist wing”. Neither Hezbollah or Israel acknowledge the existence of separate wings. The concept was invented by European states to be able to sell weapons to the Lebanese army.
Police searched mosque associations in the western state of North Rhine-Westphalia, Bremen and Berlin which they believe are close to Hezbollah, and the private residences of the leaders of each association.

The associations under investigation are suspected of forming part of Hezbollah due to their financial support and propaganda for the organisation, said the interior ministry.
“The activities of Hezbollah violate criminal law and the organisation opposes the concept of international understanding,” it said in a statement.
The move means that Hezbollah symbols are banned at gatherings and in publications or in the media. Hezbollah assets can be confiscated, but because it is a foreign organisation, it was not possible to dissolve the group, the ministry said.
The group is already considered a “terrorist” organisation by the US, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Israel as well as the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and the Arab League.
Petr Bystron, AfD Spokesman on the Foreign Policy Committee of the German Bundestag, said:
“Almost a year ago, on June 6, 2019, the AfD filed a motion to outlaw Hezbollah as a terrorist organization and abolish the absurd distinction between a “political” and a “military” arm of Hezbollah. Germany has become the world’s most important nexus for Hezbollah’s arms and drug deals, with which they finance terror against Israel. They have approx. 1050 active members in Germany, recruiting and raising money.
Our motion was rejected by the other parties in June, then resubmitted in Fall and rejected once again Dec. 18. However, thanks to our pressure, as well as pressure by Israel, US ambassador Richard Grenell and reporting by Benjamin Weinthal in the Jerusalem Post, we were able to force the other parties to pass at least a watered-down version of out bill, demanding a ban on “Hezbollah activities”. It is this motion Interior Minister Horst Seehofer is finally acting on, five months later, and almost a year after we first tabled the issue.
Let’s hope it is only the first step on the way to completely outlawing membership in Hezbollah in Germany.”

Well so far so good, it’s better than nothing.
However, a word of caution, these raids, while welcome, will do nothing at all to put sap in the pissals of the German public or their political elite, all are bound to their “touchy feely” way of kowtowing to muslim sensibilities in every way imaginable. So much of Merkel’s political capital is tied up with the Islamification of Germany.
What will be interesting however will be the leaderships willingness to resist the pushback of those permanently offended ones.
Expect loud tantrums and much finger pointing.

The Europeans imported Islam knowing what it is, so they could turn the clash of completely incompatible civilizations it into a war of survival that would benefit the rulers of Europe. They have to have that war or they lose Europe to Islam by birthrate, and they know that. They have to have that war or their own people will eventually figure out why the Muslims were forced on them, and their own citizens will get rid of the rulers and the Muslims. The war was supposed to start with a traitor (who is loyal to a foreign collective of power) named Hillary in the WH so we could be used as their global hitman. Now they have to have that war to survive in power, and they might try to use that war (treaty) to drag the US into their mess as part of the next scheme to put a traitor in the WH. If they start their war against Islam, the west could expect a “retaliatory” strike from the Islamic world….

All good points and an interesting hypothesis. They indeed were brought in to serve the purposes of the EU/UN masters whose goals included the dismantling of the nation state and national identity. The ‘humanitarian’ aid was just a front, and it fooled many people.
Is this another example of the 1 2 3 Hegelian rule – stage the problem – control and fuel the chaos – come in like a hero with a solution. It might be too early yet to predict how far this will go, but whatever it may be, its design would be to benefit the elite’s plan. The birthrate guarantees victory by numbers in the years to come, but is taking decisive action now a way of solidifying EU/UN authority in the minds of Europeans, thus benefiting their rule by reaffirming the EU entity itself. Nothing like a common enemy to unify people. Start a war against the Islam that they brought in, all while using forces under the EU flag. We shall see.
The world would have been even uglier under Hillary. Trump has certainly set their plans back, yet something happens to the America of today. Biblical prophecy depicts a coming scenario of a subdued America that either won’t respond or can’t respond against her enemies nor in defense of her allies.

Yes. A brilliant work, almost ‘artful’, yet meant for an evil form of control. When used with propaganda tools, it is very effective, especially because most people lean towards being trusting to the point of naivete and are essentially quite lazy in their patterns of thought.

You are pretending not to understand how the war against Islam would start, and how it would unfold with Hillary in the WH, and how it would end. You are pretending not to understand how the war against Islam would be repurposed to put Hillary in the WH. Consider the magnitude of a war that designed to eliminate all opposition to one ruler.
2 patsy cards. One has been played.
Who says our allies are really allies? Our “allies” are the old rulers who want the old world order back, without opposition. That’s the “new world order” they dream of. They are the “dreamers”…
“War is deceit” = Truthful words from a forked tongue….
King of the hill is a game where alliances are created to take the hill, but all the players know there is no loyalty among them.

No, I pretend nothing. I presume only that the world is spiraling towards the conditions detailed in the prophecies. The ‘new world order’ described there, is not a recreation of an old world order. It is an ugly manifestation of evil such that the world has never seen before. It will see the emergence of a powerful leader who will hold the promise of order out of the chaos, peace from war, and security for all. For a few years, he will appear to be like a hero and many religions will regard him as the Messiah of God, yet that is not what he will be. He will be the Antichrist, and his true identity will be revealed after a short time – then, all manner of judgement falls on earth till finally this age of man comes to its end.
I have not seen you make any reference to what you believe in any of this regard, and it may be because you are not a believer. All this became very real to me when I researched the prophecies. Upon learning of the number of them (over 1800) and of the incredible intricacy of detail and time of many of them, and that not one of them has failed to fulfill exactly as given and when, it was obvious that man could not do this. It is undeniable evidence of God and the truth of His word.
The current state of end time prophecy in conjunction with world events, is completely in sync with the prophesied end of this age and the soon return of Christ. This to me is the bigger picture that is unfolding against the backdrop of all that we see happening today. It also tells me that there is no stopping what is coming – there is only preparing.

I believe in truth. Where would the pursuit of truth lead?
I don’t throw God’s name around. If I say the same thing in two sentences, attaching God’s name to one, I’m attacked for the other and accused of being some kind of disbeliever. Accusations are a tool. Shaming is a tool.
The most evil people on earth use scripture to conceal their true nature. Who does that remind you of? Muslims study the Bible, and often know it better than the people who claim to be Christians.
War is deceit…right? Allah has 99 names and of one of them is: He is the best of deceivers. Who does that sound like?

Muslums do NOT study the bible. That is an interfaith lie. The bible is considered corrupted as are Christians and Jews. Neither the Tanakh nor the New Testament are part of the muslum faith.

They study the Bible as a general studies his enemy. Get it?
***Not ALL of them study the Bible, but the educated and cunning among them do. I added that as an edit so you wouldn’t throw another rock at me…

Going back to Munich Olympics, West Germany and more recently the unified Germany has a poor track record in detaining, prosecuting and convicting Islamic terrorists.
For year’s Merkel’s been forgiving Assad’s atrocities in exchange for Iranian military contracts. Only Trump’s reinstated sanctions put the brakes on her traitorous behavior.
Germans souls are black as coal. It’s going to take several generations to eradicate Hitler’s evil. Everything they do is transactional. Follow the money.

Hezbollah, Hamas, Al Qaida, Abu Sayyaf, ISIS, Moro Islamic Liberation Front, PLO, all these terrorist orgs are merely a symptom of the disease called islam. Defeating any one of them is practically meaningless!

@M; You forgot to add “cair” to the list you have in your comment. “cair” IS the “store-front” for the “muslembrotherhood” in America. It MUST be officially declared a TERRORIST organization, OUTLAWED and DISBANDED.

What Germany did is CAMOUFLAGE – read carefully what the government really did !
Don’t praise Germany – don’t praise Merkel.
Merkel is 2nd Hitler, just using other methods – it’s her who illegally invited millions of muslims and still invites their whole families – it’s her who plunders the middle class and destroys “German identity” – it’s her who is responsible for the massively upcoming antisemitism.
It’s Merkel who makes the EU a dictatorship!
And the Germans???
Their majority voted for Hitler, and voted for the disastrous Merkel many times, and will vote again for this traitor and globalist BLUTSAU.

“AT LAST! Germany bans Hezbollah, raids mosques”
This makes no sense….wasn’t it just a couple of years ago that Merkel brought in 2 million Muslim men “to work” because of their low birth rate?
The joke was on her……the Muslim men don’t work. Most are living off the tax payers of Germany. Sex trafficking of German girls is out of control…along with rapes and knifings…..
Too late to “close the barn door” when the cows have already gotten out.”

German government doing it’s job to protect it’s people and their prosperity from an enemy within. U.S government refuses to do it’s job, by not only aiding the enemy within, but has literally BECOME THE ENEMY WITHIN!
