German ANTI-Islamisation Marches: What the Mainstream Media Doesn't Want You To Know
Breitbart ^ | 1/24/2015 | Oliver Lane

LEIPZIG, Germany – Wednesday night saw a flare of violence and an accompanying police operation on a scale without precedent in recent German history. A group opposing militant Islam in Europe has called a demonstration, the city is deafened by political slogans played over loudspeakers, property is vandalised, and explosives are thrown at police in colossal running battles that involve thousands of people.

If you got your news from the mainstream media, what is increasingly known in Germany as the ‘liar press’ (Luegenpresse), the story might very well end there. Then again, the report might also throw in salacious details about the former leader of this movement and his colourful past, or the tragic death of an immigrant man who was killed shortly after a demonstration in Dresden last week.

There is no doubt about what these reports are meant to leave you thinking. Germans actually taking pride in their country, and very soon after in the neighbourhood a young Eritrean is murdered with no apparent motive? Must be a racist attack. This has been a large part of the German establishment’s haughty dismissal of the Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamisation of the West (PEGIDA) group: that they are cold, angry racists with hatred in their hearts.

Many people in Germany are questioning the post-war consensus that unlimited immigration and multiculturalism (or ghettoisation) is inevitable and desirable for the first time in their lives, and the freedom of thought bug appears to be spreading.

Doesn't THAT sound familiar...

This resembles a confrontation between the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street.

“Liar press” - I think that’s much more appropriate than lame stream media . I’m going to start using it.

Exactly. The more conservative folks are marching peacefully, yet the media tarnishes their efforts with slanderous labels against tem - Nazi’s etc. They would never use the word ‘communists’ against the left-wing counter-demonstrators, who are creating havoc in the streets of Dresden.

Later in the evening I speak to a group of police officers guarding the station and without hesitation one tells me all of the explosives and bottles thrown that evening were by the left-wing counter protesters.

The Left always tries to portray the Conservatives as violent but which side uses violence as their first weapon of choice?

If anyone has good reason to understand the evil nature of the Luegenpresse it's the Germans--and the Russians.

If the Americans don't wake up to reality--and fast!--they're going to find out about it bigtime!

What the morons don’t understand is that these people are demonstrating AGAINST Naziism.
