EU leaders: 'No link' between Cologne sex attacks and migrant crisis
Telegraph ^ | 29 Jan 2016 | Matthew Holehouse

Posted on 01/29/2016 5:58:01 PM PST by presidio9

The sex attacks that took place in Cologne on New Year's Eve were simply a "matter of public order" and had nothing to do with the refugee crisis, Jean-Claude Juncker’s inner circle believe.

The European Commission will be the "voice of reason" and tell the public that there is no link between the migration crisis affecting the continent and attacks on women in Germany, internal minutes disclose, amid growing concerns at a "xenophobic" backlash.

The minutes of the European Commission's weekly cabinet meeting from January 13 hint at officials' fears that the events in Cologne could turn public opinion sharply against the million migrants who have entered Europe.

They spell out Mr Juncker's frustration at the inaction of national governments under pressure from voters, and a suggest sense of panic that the inability to halt a growing volume of economic migrants could undermine the "credibility" of the European project.

In events that shocked Germany, a crowd of around a thousand people surrounded and attacked women celebrating the New Year. More than 500 people filed criminal complaints, 40 per cent of which were for sexual assault. At least two cases of rape were reported. The interior ministry, days after the attacks, said that "people with a migration background were almost exclusively responsible for the criminal acts."

One perpetrator is alleged to have told police he was Syrian, adding: "You have to treat me kindly. Mrs Merkel invited me."

German politicians and newspapers were accused of suppressing the events, while in Leipzig protesters from the Pegida movement marched with banners reading 'Rapefugees not welcome'. Ukip have said the events show why Britain should vote to leave the EU.

This is bad. Very bad. If you can’t protect the most vulnerable citizens, you are not worthy to call yourself a government or a country. God is watching!

How long will it take the EU citizenry to implement the Mussolini option?

There’s only one God, you should know that.

How does this differ from the current leadership here in the US?

The EU leaders are going to hunker down and hope it blows over. The only way they will change their tune is when they see Europeans with rope and scaffolding being set up near Brussels.

No, they have a god all right. Unfortunately, theirs isn't real.

It surprised me how many people here don't get this, but the entire point of their second favorite saying "la ilaha illa allah" ("There is no god but God")is to differentiate Allah from our own God, the Father.

How damn stupid can these people be. Having signs saying welcome when other females are being raped and molested, crime going up, and people being attacked.

I swear I do not know if it is their parents, the lack of parenting, or the schools and media influencing this insanity. What ever it is our side has to address this insanity and mental illness.
