'420 potentially dangerous Islamists live in Germany'
'420 potentially dangerous Islamists live in Germany'
Berlin, Nov 17 (IANS/EFE) Around 43,000 people are part of Islamist circles in Germany and around 420 are considered potentially dangerous, the president of the German Federal Criminal Police Office (or BKA) has said.
In an interview with Die Welt newspaper after the attacks in Paris, Holger Munch recalled that Islamist terrorism attacks European values, with Germany also in its sight.
As he noted, the coordinated work of the security forces has prevented 11 attacks in the country, but Paris has shown that the risk of international terrorism is "high" and that Germany may also be affected.
The jihadists, he explained, are younger than they were a few years ago and radicalized much faster; sometimes they spend a few months or a few weeks until a person decides to travel to Syria.
Many have criminal records behind them and often, before travelling abroad to join the jihadists, come into contact with Salafist groups in Germany.
According to data from the BKA, more than 750 Islamists have left Germany bound for Iraq and Syria and there is information about 70 people who have returned after receiving military training or combat experience.

And yet Germany has taken and keeps taking more and more refugees. This is crazy.
