ISIS Refugee Slashes Throats at Diversity Festival in Germany
(Gatestone Institute) Daniel Greenfield - Three people were killed and eight injured, five seriously, on Aug. 23 at the Festival of Diversity in Solingen, Germany. The ISIS terrorist was a Syrian Muslim refugee who had been scheduled to be deported, but was not. In response, Chancellor Olaf Scholz promised rapid action would be taken against knives. The German government announced that it will ban knives over three inches long. Right now, people in Germany can carry knives up to 4.7 inches long. The law will be modified so that they can only carry knives up to 2.4 inches long. No one appears to have considered the possibility that Muslim terrorists on the way to killing as many infidels as possible might violate the law and carry a concealed knife of 4 inches or longer. There were 13,844 "knife crime" incidents in Germany in 2023, which the authorities are blaming on the existence of knives and not the perpetrators, who are reportedly mostly young Muslim men. Much of the West now exists in the throes of an endless diversity festival where no one notices the killers, only the lengths of their blades.
