_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.
