_Germany:  Migrant Crime Skyrockets_ 
(http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/7470/germany-migrants-crime) 
by Soeren Kern  •   February 21, 2016 at 5:00 am 
    *   The actual number of crimes in  Germany committed by migrants in 
2015 may exceed  400,000. 
    *   The report does not include  crime data from North 
Rhine-Westphalia, the most  populous state in Germany and also the state with 
the  largest 
number of migrants. North Rhine-Westphalia's  biggest city is Cologne, where, 
on New Year's Eve,  hundreds of German women were sexually assaulted by  
migrants. 
    *   "For years the policy has been  to leave the [German] population in 
the dark about the  actual crime situation... The citizens are being played 
 for fools. Rather than tell the truth, they [government  officials] are 
evading responsibility and passing blame  onto the citizens and the police." — 
André Schulz,  director, Association of Criminal Police, Germany. 
    *   10% of the migrants from the  chaos in Iraq and Syria have reached 
Europe so far:  "Eight to ten million migrants are still on the way." —  
Gerd Müller, Development Minister.

Migrants  committed 208,344 crimes in 2015, according to a  confidential 
police report that was leaked to the German  newspaper, Bild. This figure 
represents an 80%  increase over 2014 and works out to around 570 crimes  
committed by migrants every day, or 23 crimes each hour,  between January and 
December 2015. 
The  actual number of migrant crimes is far higher, however,  because the 
report, produced by the Federal Criminal  Police Office (Bundeskriminalamt, 
BKA), includes  only crimes that have been solved (aufgeklärten  Straftaten). 
According to Statista, the German  statistics agency, on average only 
around half of all  crimes committed in Germany in any given year are solved  
(Aufklärungsquote). This implies that the actual  number of crimes committed by 
migrants in 2015 may exceed  400,000.

_What  Is Canada Doing Celebrating Hijab Day?_ 
(http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/7464/ottawa-hijab-day) 
by Shabnam Assadollahi  •  February 21, 2016 at 4:00 am 
    *   The outrage is that Hijab  Solidarity Day will be taking place 
under the auspices  of the City of Ottawa, the capital of Canada. It is not  
the 
role of a democratic government to celebrate  religious symbols or to help 
religions proselytize. 
    *   The government's acceptance of  an Ottawa Hijab Solidarity Day 
amounts to accepting a  radical legal system that is completely contrary to  
Canada's democratic values, and crosses the line that  separates Church and 
State. Endorsing the hijab is  endorsing the first step of an extremist 
ideology that  leads to and condones honor killings, female genital  mutilation 
(FGM) and the oppression of women. 
    *   In 2007, Aqsa Parvez, a  16-year-old Pakistani Muslim living in 
Toronto, was  strangled to death by her father. Her crime was that, as  a free 
woman in Canada, she chose not to wear a hijab.  In another case in Canada, 
in 2012, four Muslim women  were murdered by their own family for refusing 
to wear a  hijab and preferring Western clothing.
 
 
In  2007, Aqsa Parvez, a 16-year-old Pakistani Muslim living  in Toronto, 
was strangled to death by her father. Her  crime was that, as a free woman in 
Canada, she chose not  to wear a hijab.

This  Thursday, February 25, 2016, the city of Ottawa will be  holding a 
public event celebrating the hijab, Islam's  physical repression of women. 
The  City for All Women Initiative (CAWI) organization, backed  by the City 
Council of Ottawa, is hosting the Ottawa Hijab  Solidarity Day celebration, 
also called "Walking with Our  Muslims Sisters," at City Hall. According to 
CAWI, the  main purpose of this event is to encourage non-Muslim  women to 
wear a hijab to understand life as a Muslim  woman. 
The  outrage is that such an event will be taking place under  the auspices 
of the City of Ottawa, the capital of Canada.  Under Islamic Shari'a law, 
the hijab is an expression of  the suppression of women and is used as a tool 
to  persecute women by their male counterparts. 
For  many secular and former Muslim women, the hijab is  anything but a 
symbol of freedom. The hijab serves as a  physical daily reminder that they, 
women, are second-class  citizens in the eyes of Islam.
