Concern about hatred and violence from Hamas fanatics and Islamists in Germany.
A current BKA situation report (available from BILD) states: Nationwide, “an increased potential for emotionalization and mobilization can be expected.” Means: meetings and demonstrations against Israel!
The Islamists have declared “Al-Aqsa Flood Friday” and want to bring hatred and violence to our streets.
The BKA warns internally that “agitation in the form of verbal rejection of impulses, acts of resistance and, in isolated cases, physical attacks, including throwing objects to the detriment of the officers deployed” are to be expected.
However, a “concrete threat to Israeli institutions and interests in Germany” cannot currently be identified, according to the report.
Berlin Police President Barbara Slowik (57) is also alarmed: “The most difficult situation of the last five years of my term in office! Thinking outside the box wasn’t easy, but now being responsible for the people of Berlin is the most intense.”
The security authorities in the capital are registering a charged atmosphere. The number of crimes (including damage to property) has been increasing since last weekend. Danger situation: slightly increased.
The State Criminal Police Office (LKA) has formed the “Gaza Working Group”. All information is bundled there. Anti-Israel gatherings should be dissolved quickly.
And: More undercover investigators are on duty. “Phenomenon-related strips” are in massive use. They should speak openly to the Islamists they know. New are so-called “intervention patrols” (armed).
