In a nationwide raid, 25 suspected members and supporters of a terrorist organization were arrested early Wednesday. Officials said the network, part of a wider right-wing movement, was already well established with a concrete plan to overthrow the German state by force and install a new government.

The raids were announced by Germany's federal prosecution agency and German Justice Minister Marco Buschmann. Buschmann said the investigations were directed against a suspected terrorist network with known ties to the Reichsbürger movement. He said that the raids had taken place on individuals suspected of planning an armed attack on state institutions.

The search operation is reported to have covered 130 properties belonging to 52 suspects in 11 German states. According to prosecution officials, the arrested suspects "belong to a terrorist organization founded by the end of November 2021 at the latest, which has set itself the goal of overcoming the existing state order in Germany and replacing it with its own form of state, which has already been worked out in outline." Of the 25 men and women arrested, 24 were from Germany and one suspected supporter is from Russia. One arrest took place in Austria and one in Italy. There are 27 other suspects, the federal prosecutor's office said.

Prosecutors identified the suspected ringleaders only as Heinrich XIII P. R. and Ruediger v. P., in line with German privacy rules. The news magazine Der Spiegel reported that the former was a well-known 71-year-old member of a minor German noble family, while the latter was a 69-year-old former paratrooper. According to prosecutors, Heinrich XIII P. R., who the group planned to install as the new leader of Germany, had made contact with Russian officials seeking to establish a new order in Germany once the Berlin government was overthrown. A Russian woman, Vitalia B, had allegedly given him help with this. A currently-serving soldier in the Bundeswehr's Special Forces Command (KSK) as well as several Bundeswehr reservists were also among suspects in the case, a spokesperson for Germany's Military Counterintelligence Service (MAD) told the DPA news agency. A search was carried out at the soldier's home and his barracks office in the state of Baden-Württemberg.

The group had targeted members of the Bundeswehr and police for their wanted to win their goals. It had formed a "military arm" and a council presided over by Heinrich XIII P. R. To implement their plans the group's members were prepared to use the use of military means and violence against state representatives as well as violence. According to the investigators, the members of the group "followed a conglomerate of conspiracy myths consisting of narratives of the so-called 'Reichsbürger' as well as QAnon ideology." The prosecutors added that the group's adherents believe Germany is ruled by a so-called "deep state," similar to baseless claims about the United States that were made by former President Donald Trump. The Reichsbürger movement is made up of a number of small organizations and individuals, mainly in the states of Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Bavaria. They do not accept the legality of the Federal Republic of Germany or any of its government authorities. The movement argues that the German constitution prior to World War II was never properly nullified and that the formation of the former West Germany in 1949, and now reunified Germany, was therefore never valid.

Im going to call BS. This is probably another Kristallnacht to give the government authority to take control.

[mewzilla]

It’s pour encourager les autres.

[ransomnote]

Yes. State run media blaming Russia Russia Russia etc. Rinse and repeat.

[Fido969]

Next, raids of FR posters’ homes.

> Next, raids of FR posters’ homes.

Come on, aren't you being paranoid ?

Uh ..... wait a sec, I have to get the door, someone from the Department of Misinformation is knocking.

[euram]

I’m pretty sure this is just a setup probably encouraged by the Biden crime syndicate. Then, pointing to the “extreme right” emergency in Germany, the FBI will then arrest Trump and accuse him of plotting to stage a coup.

3000 police officers deployed in raids over plot to overthrow German government

Not surprised, Fascist Nazi Governments are very difficult to overthrow.

[Nifster]

You don’t understand Kristallnacht then

[jmacusa]

Nah. Sounds more like “The Night of The Long Knives’’.

[Jonty30]

My understanding of Kristallnacht is that the Nazis burned down the Reichstag and then used that to take control of Germany. I see this government making parallel moves.

[Celtic Conservative]

German SovCits, that’s a new one.

[G Larry]

They arrested 25 people.

Which is pretty funny when you see they deployed 3000 cops....

[subterfuge]

The F B I showed up at my son in law’s house for something he posted on line last week. He refused to open the door. So they went across the street and talked to the neighbors, got in their car and sat there for awhile.

They asked the neighbors if there were kids or anyone else in the house.

[Mlheureux]

Smells like a red flag operation. Americans know well this method used by the deep state.

Call me skeptical, very skeptical.

I think their is a very good chance the Senate will eliminate the Filibuster early next year and pack the Supreme Court before the next term starts.

[Organic Panic]

In other words the Polzei is cracking the skull of native Germans upset at the new German Islamic Caliphate.
