Islam targeted European women because it views them as our most valuable property (with the possible exception of our nuclear weapons). If we will not defend them, is there anything we will defend?
Well, is there?

Cologne, Germany, Jan 11, 2016 / 03:21 pm (CNA/EWTN News).- A week after hundreds were attacked in Cologne on New Year's Eve, Cardinal Reinhard Marx, Archbishop of Munich and Freising and president of the German Conference of Catholic Bishops, condemned the attacks in a press release and called for more vigilance in the future.
"(T)he excesses in Cologne and other large cities are deeply disturbing for our society and can in no way be tolerated," Marx said.
"We need accurate information and a clear response from the authorities."
Over 500 criminal complaints - about 40 percent of which involve allegations of sexual assault - have been filed to the German police regarding attacks that took place in the square outside Cologne's main train station on Monday night according to BBC.
Women appeared to be intentional targets of the attacks, which were allegedly carried out by large groups of seeming Arabs or North Africans.
The incident has sparked national and international controversy, with accusations of a cover-up by the police, media and politicians after investigations indicated many of the attackers were men who entered the country as refugees.
The local police have been inundated with accusations over the delay in informing the public about the attacks. They have also been criticized for supposedly holding back information about the nationality of the suspects.
German bishops also faced criticisms for their failure to respond in a timely manner.
In his Jan. 8 statement, Cardinal Marx warned that "these new forms of violence and especially the inhumane treatment of women cannot be tolerated" and he demanded that "all the different forces in society must work together to prevent this type of incidents and guarantee safety."

Marx. Good God the irony in that. Anyway, that’s telling them bishop. That’ll teach ‘em.
Sounds like a pretty sternly worded statement from Cardinal Marx. I’m sure the islamderthals are quaking in their sandals.
And the response is, “let’s have an interfaith prayer service”
Oh yeah. I’m sure as well. You know the Krauts. Why the old Bishop So and So there threw them a regular 88mm sternly worded statement. Hit ‘em dead on. Good Lord this would be funny if it weren’t true.
A week?
Really?
Sorry pal, but you pissed away any moral authority you might have otherwise had.
The good bishop politely asked them not to be so excessive. Shouldn’t happen again.
They turned out 1,500 police to quell the anti-Muslim-rape rally. Only had 140 odd cops on hand when the Muzz rape/molestation rampage went down.
Islam targeted European women because it views them as our most valuable property (with the possible exception of our nuclear weapons). If we will not defend them, is there anything we will defend?

Your typical German is pretty tough when it comes to bashing out the brains of a Jewish grandmother with the butt of a rifle. But against somebody who might be willing and able to fight back? Not so much.
Dead culture. What we see in Germany today is the putrefaction of a corpse.
Understanding that one little fact explains a whole lot about the utterances from Cardinal Marx SRE, et al.
Thanks...didn’t know that. How is the tax levied?
Similar to Rats and GOPe wanting new voters from south of the border or ME — more power. The one true maxim in life — “ follow the money.”
Payroll deduction.
If you switch from Protestant to Catholic or vice versa, your new church will record you. Basically the only way to get out of it is through formally, in writing, declaring yourself an atheist.
Seriously!? A payroll deduction to support the churches? That is astonishing.
Catholic ping!
I think I have a new nick name for the rag heads.
Given the abortion rate in our country, I would make it: "A society that refuses to defend its women and children....."
