The German government and its various media arms continue to deny the massive issues brought to the country’s soil by mass immigration over the last decade. Many Germans have increasingly had enough.
“Our children did not have to die alone” is the title of the piece in Berliner Zeitung, bemoaning the fact that a vigil in Dresden this past weekend commemorating the victims of migrant crimes perpetrated in the city was not “newsworthy” enough for the MDR (Central German Broadcasting) to cover. It also does not seem to be covered by any mainstream news portal. Certainly, none of the established politicians attended, including former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who still claims she has no regrets about opening the borders to Germany.

Known as the "Mourning Vigil Germany," marchers held photos of their deceased loved ones.

The father of 17-year-old Ann-Marie, Michael Kyrath, spoke at the vigil, recounting the horror of losing his daughter, who was killed along with her 19-year-old boyfriend, Danny, in a commuter train in January 2023 when a stateless Palestinian man with multiple prior convictions and a deportation order stabbed them both 38 times.
Kyrath is part of a growing network of families mourning the loss of their children and loved ones to the epidemic of migrant crime across Germany. By many measures, he is considered the leader of this movement. He says he was shocked when families of girls who had suffered violent sexual assaults also started contacting him. “”I sometimes sit across from girls as young as 10 years old,” he said.
Remix News has covered the issue of migrant crime, just in Dresden, extensively:
- “Tunisian migrant severely beats family on Dresden playground, including attack on 2-year-old and 7-week-old baby”
- “Syrian man on trial in Dresden for raping 17-year-old and his pregnant wife, also charged with child pornography offense”
- “‘Allahu Akbar!’ — Syrian committed to psychiatric ward after mass attack on streets of Dresden, but police insist no religious motive“
- “Not even men are safe in the new Europe: 2 Syrians rape a Czech tourist at Dresden’s main train station, according to police”
- “Serial Iraqi groper keeps molesting women in the German city of Dresden but courts keep releasing him”
- “‘People don’t do that here, or at least Europeans don’t!’ — US model who saved woman from Syrian knifeman in Dresden slams German mass migration policy“
These are just a few of the Remix News headlines going back just eight months. And there are many more going back years.
The present refusal to even recognize the violence committed against the locals of a major German city brings up memories of what happened just two years ago, this time by leftist Greens who sought to rewrite history. Every year, Germans gather at a memorial in Dresden to commemorate the victims of the carpet bombing of the city by the Allies during World War II. Apparently, doing so only fuels right-wing nationalism, according to the left.
Efforts to cancel the event have so far failed, with the memorial taking place this past February as usual.
The vigil for victims of migrant crime this past weekend went ahead as planned as well, however, a media fearful of the anti-immigration Alternative for Germany (AfD), is placing a media blackout on th event. The AfD just hit a new record high of 28 percent in the polls, all as the latest crime statistics, which were released this month, show that 42 percent of all violent crime in the country is committed by foreigners.
Germany has long been at loggerheads over the issue of migrant crime, with right-wing and even center-right parties battling leftist forces determined to change the demographic makeup of the country. The ruling CDU/CSU has long unleashed rhetoric against mass immigration, in particular illegal immigraiton, but so far, they have refused to team up with the anti-migration AfD party to bring real change.
In the meantime, there has been very little influx of qualified professionals, and mass immigration remains an incredibly net fiscal negative for German society, despite promises from the CDU. In fact, the opposite has been true, with migrants continuously representing a far larger share of criminal perpetrators than their share of the population.

Now, Germany’s once envied school system in tatters and teachers unions and experts are speaking of a growing crisis.
Another issue is the growing threat of Islam, which has been forced upon Germany via migration.
Ex-TV-Moderator Waldemar Hartmann, who spoke at the vigil in Dresden, issued a response to former CDU president Christian Wulff’s statement that “Islam belongs to Germany.”
“Islam exists, yes, but it does not belong to Germany.”
There may be many who feel otherwise, but the data from the federal police about Muslims in Germany is alarming, with nearly 50 percent of Muslims under the age of 40 in Germany hold “Islamist” views, with these Muslims expressing an attraction to Islamism, a preference for Sharia law over the German Basic Law, and harboring anti-Semitic prejudices.
Hartmann also criticized Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier’s speech last November, warning against the dangers of far-right extremism and populism.
“I can handle it. But I am deeply worried about the future of this country, especially for the young people,” he said.
The German state and the media are aware there is an undeniable crisis, but the answer is more taxes.
“In addition to raising tobacco and alcohol taxes, the federal government now also wants to introduce a ‘sugar tax.’ This is not about health, but about financing climate, migration, and Ukraine policies. We will not only immediately abolish the sugar tax again,” AfD co-leader Alice Weidel posted on X.
As Germany now faces record bankruptcies and layoffs amidst an energy crisis and multiple wars, the government is telling Germans to do more after “living beyond their means” for so long, a statement made by CDU Minister Warken on the health insurance reform that Weidel called “outrageous.”
“For more than 10 years, Germany’s workers have co-financed all those who have never paid a cent into the social system. No German insured person in private or statutory health insurance has ‘lived beyond their means,’ yet they are now being punished for the CDU’s migration policy,” she wrote, adding that if in power, the AfD would “immediately scrap this ‘reform'” and initiate deportations to ease the continuous “burden” on working Germans forced to finance this social experiment.
Weidell’s stance may be driving the parties growing popularity.
According to Weidel, “Even within the CDU, people no longer believe that this government will last until 2029.”
