German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier asked Shiite Muslims representatives on Monday how they were handling growing anti-Semitism in Germany.

In a meeting with leaders from the Islamic Association of Shiite Congregations in Germany (IGS) at the Bellevue Palace in Berlin, Steinmeier expressed his concerns over rising hostility toward Jews from all aspects of society, including Muslims. “Anti-Semitism in Germany isn’t primarily a Muslim problem, but it is also seen more strongly among Muslims,” the president said, according to those present at the meeting.

His statement was part of a broader conversation focused on concerns over rising anti-Semitism in Germany and to what extent the sentiments are expressed by segments of Germany’s Muslim minority population. Debate on the issues has grown louder in recent weeks following a recent attack by a young Syrian man on two men wearing traditional Jewish skullcaps and the cancelation of Germany’s ECHO music awards in a controversy over anti-Semitic lyrics.

The new commissioner for anti-Semitism, Felix Klein, has pointed to police statistics indicating that 90 percent of anti-Semitic crimes are committed by extreme right-wing individuals. However, he has also promised to look into worries of Muslim anti-Semitism expressed by Jews in Germany.

According to a spokesperson from IGS, the Shiite group’s representatives presented Steinmeier with various project plans aimed at fighting extremism. …

When you import people from cultures that still admire Hitler for killing Jews, what do you expect?

[DIRTYSECRET]

I’d rather discuss racism at Starbucks.

[MtnClimber]

This is cluelessness raised to a new level.

What were the muzzies trying to get some tips on a quieter way to kill Jews? Far as I know the Germans are out of that business.

[Olog-hai]

Well, take a look at what Germany has always thought of Israel at the UN through the years.

Talking to mostly Semitic Muslims about dealing with “Antisemitism” is quite ironic, don’t you think?

Maybe we should just rename Antisemitism to what it really is, Anti-Jews? It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that’s what the term really means!

They don’t have a problem cooperating on weapons systems.

Hey Kraut @$$hole!

The maniacal murdering mozlums are NAZIs....on steroids.

The term “antisemitic” has always meant “anti-Jew” rather than “anti-all-of-Shem’s-descendants”.

And the Arabs are half-Semitic and half-Hamitic (through Hagar).

[Olog-hai]

Not to mention, not all Muslims are descendants of either Shem or Ham. Quite a few are descended from Japheth, especially from further east of the “cradle of civilization”.

Germany has a long history of anti-Jew thinking. Check the photo below:

Above is the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem with Hitler in November 1941. At that time the Grand Mufti met with Hitler to convince him to exterminate the Jews of Europe, because the Jews who were leaving Europe were ending up in Jerusalem, where the Arabs and the Jews were fighting for Palestine. On the other hand, the Balfur Declaration of 1917 had guaranteed the establishment of a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine. This turmoil in the region would upset Hitler's plans for oil. Hence, exterminate Jews. That bias against the Jews, which originated in Palestine, is widespread in Europe.
