Ummmm. These stats fail to mention who the attackers are... If it was native Germans doing the attacks I imagine we would hear all about the New wave of Nazi-ism in Germany but this article does not identify who the attackers are. There are just attacks happening... Since this article has no evidence of these attacks being white or non-Muslims... Could it be the other refugees being the attackers? The articles calls it a "hate crime" with only linking to a story about one migrant trying to fit in and waiting in line for paper work.
If you're being given food and shelter along with thousands of other people who are new to the country I think waiting in line is a small price to pay.
not to mention anti Muslim rhetoric.
All this negativity just fuels the flames
To get anywhere in this conversation people need to start drawing lines. First line is in between Hate and Criticism.
I do not objectively HATE anything about Islam, however I am very CRITICAL of it. Especially when it's values over or undermine basic human rights for everyone. I should be able to be CRITICAL of something without HATING it.
That being said I HATE people who think its OK to rape, fuck children, and treat women and gays like they are less than human. That is what I HATE. This behavior, and the ideas that these behaviors are OK, should be stopped by any means necessary. That doesn't mean I then HATE every single Muslim but I will be CRITICAL of Islam as this is quite literally where some of these heinous ideas come from.
We should be allowed to question and be suspicious of things without being branded as racist bigots. When I say 'things' I mean 'Islam' which brings a long with it a massive bag of ideologies. All the more reason to be critical and look through the bag and the different ideas therein.
Islam the word itself means submission by the way.
the US, had a lot to do with the creation of ISIS.
We're talking about people being anti head scarf and then talking about ISIS declaring war on the west. Could it be possible that ISIS is using the "The Religion of Peace and love" and "Multiculturalism" as a trojan horse so it can embed itself within every aspect of our societies through this mass immigration because, as you pointed out, ISIS is essentially at war already?
EDIT: I am in no way saying all Muslims are evil. I think for organizations like ISIS and the Muslim brother hood that ISLAM is a very convenient umbrella in which to hide from criticism and even use it as victim card to say, "I am being treated unfairly and deserve preferential treatment, also those guys are racists and being really negative mannn"
