‘Festival Of Diversity’ Horror: Manhunt For ‘Arab-Looking’ Man After 3 Killed, 8 Wounded In Mass Stabbing In Germany <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

A major manhunt is underway after a Friday night mass stabbing attack killed three people and wounded eight more at a “Festival of Diversity” in Germany.\u00a0<\/strong>Living up to the event’s billing, witnesses to the bloodshed in\u00a0the western German city of Solingen say the attacker was\u00a0Arab in appearance<\/strong> — a detail every major US news outlet is omitting from its coverage as our report is written.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“This evening we are all in shock, horror and great sadness in Solingen. We all wanted to celebrate our city’s anniversary together and now we have dead and injured people to mourn<\/a>,” said Solingen Mayor Tim-Oliver Kurzbach.\u00a0“I pray for all those who are still fighting for their lives.” While the festival was indeed being held on the occasion of the city’s 650th anniversary,\u00a0rather than emphasizing German heritage and history, the organizers were apparently determined to put “diversity” front and center.\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Their goal was accomplished in way they didn’t intend, with the attacker himself reportedly infusing his own strain of “diversity.”\u00a0<\/strong>According to the German newspaper Bild<\/em>, witnesses say the knife-wielding murderer looked like a young Arab man<\/a>. At around 9:45 pm, he lashed out at an apparently random assortment of victims at the Fronhof, a market square that was being used as a venue for live musical performances. Local news outlet Solinger Tageblatt<\/em><\/a>\u00a0provided spectator Lars Breitzke’s account of what he saw:\u00a0<\/p>\n

Suprafon was playing on stage. Suddenly [Breitzke] realized from the expression on the singer Suzan K\u00f6cher’s face that something was wrong. “And then a person fell over just a meter away from me,” says Breitzke. At first he thought it was a drunk. But when he turned around, he saw other people lying on the floor. And several pools of blood.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

After fatally slashing three people and wounding eight more<\/a> — five seriously — the attacker was said to have fled toward a main street<\/a> and is still at large. The evening’s events were called off shortly after 10 pm as sirens wailed throughout the city of about 160,000 residents and a police helicopter circled above, Solinger Tageblatt<\/em><\/a>\u00a0reported. Special forces units from across the North Rhine-Westphalia state were deployed<\/strong> to Solingen as part of a large search operation, according to\u00a0The Times<\/em><\/a> of London.<\/p>\n

While the Festival of Diversity was slated to extend all through the weekend, organizers opted to cancel it altogether shortly after midnight.\u00a0Video circulating on social media purportedly shows the attack’s bloody aftermath:\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

As if it weren’t ironic enough for a “diversity” festival in Germany to be terrorized by someone apparently of foreign heritage,<\/strong>\u00a0Solingen is also known as the\u00a0“City of Blades,”<\/a><\/strong> owing to its long history as a center of scissor- and knife-making that stretches back to the Middle Ages.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Friday night’s horror show in the small city close to Dusseldorf and Cologne is the just the latest episode of bloodshed visited upon Germany by knife-wielding killers of non-German heritage<\/strong>. In May<\/a>, a 25-year-old immigrant from Afghanistan slaughtered<\/a> a police officer and wounded six more people in Mannheim.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This Afghanistan immigrant stabbed a Mannheim police officer to death in a May attack that also wounded six<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

An immigration crackdown doesn’t appear to be on the table. Instead,\u00a0German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser recently urged a different remedy:\u00a0<\/strong>“Knives are used to commit brutal acts of violence that can cause serious injury or death. We need tougher weapons laws and stricter controls,”<\/a> she told German public broadcaster ARD. She has urged the legislature to only allow the carrying of blades 6cm or smaller; the current limit is 12. She is also pushing for an outright ban on switchblades.<\/p>\n

Serious knife attacks in Germany are up 9.7% year-over-year. The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party thinks blades per se aren’t the problem:\u00a0\u00a0“We have exploding foreign crime, youth crime, migrant violence, because we have open borders,”<\/strong> said<\/a> party co-leader Alice Weidel in July.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Many hours after\u00a0Bild<\/em> first cited multiple witnesses who said the Festival of Diversity killer is a young “arab looking” man, no US media outlets are choosing to include that detail. While The<\/em> Times<\/em> of London did, it pushed it to the final paragraph of 20 in its coverage.<\/p>\n

The sole source that the perpetrator in the Solingen attack was “Arab-looking” was a witness account reported in @BILD<\/a>. They reported that this morning and now have said the police haven’t confirmed this, but are talking about a “southern-looking” perpetrator.

Similarly, at this writing, German police have not shared a description of their suspect<\/strong>, but have asked the public to send them videos and photos that could be helpful.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, North Rhine-Westphalia interior minister told reporters, “None of us knows why” the attack happened.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We’ve got a hunch it has something to do with another diversifier with an intense distaste for diversity.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
