Germany’s AfD party is asking for stricter migrant controls in response to the data.

Of the 44,232 prisoners in Germany, 24,259 are foreigners, according to data obtained from the German Federal Ministry of Justice.

That equals more than 50 percent, while the proportion of foreigners in the population is currently at 15 percent. The data, which shows the prisoner count as of March 31, 2023, was obtained after a written request from Alternative for Germany (AfD) MP Leif Erik-Holm. The Federal Statistical Office listed 44,232 prisoners on the same date in all of Germany.

German newspaper Junge Freiheit, which first reported on the data, notes that the Federal Statistical Office and the Ministry of Justice have wildly different figures for the number of foreigners in German prisons. The Federal Statistical Office lists only 15,559 foreign prisoners, while the justice ministry lists 24,259. The paper notes that it is unclear why there is such a vast difference between the two figures.

One possible explanation is that those people with dual nationality, for example, if they have both a Turkish and German passport, are listed simply as “German” in the crime statistics. However, the justice ministry may have released their data taking this difference into account and listed these prisoners as “foreigners” instead, which would account for the greater total of foreign prison offenders.

However, the prisoner data greatly aligns with the crime statistics. In 2023, interior ministry data shows that 6 in 10 violent crimes were committed by foreigners in Germany. Violent crimes also reached record levels in 2023 in many categories, such as assault, and the share of foreign offenders reached a record high as well for all crimes, equaling 41 percent.

AfD MP Holm criticized the ruling left-liberal coalition in Germany, saying the data reveals their failed migration policy.

“Instead of providing full care for criminal foreigners at taxpayers’ expense, the deportation offensive announced by Scholz must finally be put into practice,” he said.

In addition, Germany “finally needs a rigid migration policy.” He said that mass immigration has not solved Germany’s problems but instead created dozens of new ones. “Nobody has anything against real skilled workers from abroad, but uncontrolled immigration is destroying the foundations of our society,” he added.

Similar data has been produced in countries like Austria and Switzerland. In Switzerland, two-thirds of all prisoners are foreigners. In Austria, this number is 50 percent.

The cost of remedying the problem could exceed the cost of the 2021 infrastructure bill

One in four American households have soil in their backyards in excess of EPA safe guidelines, according to a new study. The EPA recently lowered its recommended screening levels for lead in residential soil by half, from 400 to 200 parts per million.

The financial costs of addressing this contamination are potentially vast. Experts believe it could cost between $290 billion and $1.2 trillion. For comparison, that’s more than the 2021 infrastructure bill.

Researchers looked at over 15,000 soil samples collected by regular people in their neighborhoods, and analyzed them for lead concentrations.

Samples from Chicago fared particularly badly, with 53% of household soils exceeding the new 200 parts per million guideline. Indianapolis and Burlington, Vermont also showed very high levels of contamination, with 37% and 24% of samples above the new guideline.

Regional variations may be explained by factors such as industrial history, the age of housing stock and past use of leaded gasoline.

If the cost of systematic remediation is likely to prove prohibitive, the researchers advocate a much simpler method: capping contaminated soil with fresh uncontaminated soil.

“Even the act of covering polluted soil with clean soils will permanently dilute the lead concentration of the total soil profile if soil perturbation occurs,” one of the study authors explains.

“Lead is the most easily solvable problem that we have. We know where it is, and we know how to avoid it. It’s just a matter of taking action.”

A former Green Beret has warned that there will be a major attack inside the United States by 2025 and it will be partly thanks to President Biden’s open border policies. Ret. Lt. Col. Scott […]

The Ukrainian strike on the peninsula using US-made missiles killed at least four people and injured more than 150.

The Russian Foreign Ministry has summoned the US ambassador to Moscow after Ukraine used American-supplied ATACMS missiles in an attack on the Crimean peninsula, resulting in numerous civilian casualties.

In a statement on Monday, the ministry said Ambassador Lynne Tracy had been presented with a demarche in connection with what it called “a new bloody crime of the Kiev regime patronized and armed by Washington,” referring to the Ukrainian shelling of Sevastopol the day before.

According to the Russian Defense Ministry, the Ukrainian attack occurred around noon local time on Sunday, involving five ATACMS missiles armed with cluster munitions, which are outlawed in more than 100 countries. Officials said four rockets had been destroyed in mid-air, while a fifth was damaged by air defenses, veered off course, and detonated over Sevastopol. Local authorities say the strike killed four people, including two children, and injured more than 150.

In conversation with Tracy, Russian officials emphasized that the United States was “waging a hybrid war against Russia,” and had become party to the Ukraine conflict by supplying Kiev with modern weapons, including ATACMS missiles with cluster munitions. The ministry also noted that American military specialists were actively engaged in designing the flight mission for ATACMS, which means they “bear the same responsibility for this atrocity as the Kiev regime.”

The ministry added that Tracy had been told that the US was “encouraging the pro-Nazi Ukrainian authorities to continue hostilities until the ‘last Ukrainian’” by approving strikes deep inside Russian territory. These actions by Washington “will not go unpunished,”Moscow warned.

The US Embassy in Moscow has yet to comment. When asked for its take on the deadly Ukrainian strike, the Pentagon replied that “we have seen the reports and have nothing to say.”

Commenting on potential retaliation on Monday, Kremlin Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov recalled what he described as a “very important” statement by Russian President Vladimir Putin, in which he said Moscow could send its long-range weapons to regions where they could be used to attack countries that provide Ukraine with military support.

Scott Ritter on Ukraine’s Shelling of Sevastopol: It’s Direct Attack on Russia by US and NATO.

Former UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter commented on Ukraine’s terrorist attack on Sevastopol.

“The Ukrainians made a decision to use ATACMS missiles equipped with cluster munitions against a city, a civilian city. This is an act of terrorism,” Ritter emphasized.

“Ukraine since 2014 has been bombarding Russian civilian sites, cities, villages, towns for the sole purpose of inflicting death and destruction on Russian civilians. This is an act of terrorism and given that the ATACMS missiles cannot be deployed by the Ukrainians without extensive intelligence support by the United States, this is an act of terrorism by the United States against Russia,” the analyst said.

Commenting on the terrorist attacks in Russia’s Dagestan, Ritter said they were “deliberately designed to disrupt the civil life of the Russian Federation”. He highlighted that the CIA has historically made attempts to “engender a split between the Muslim and non-Muslim segments of Russian society” and failed.

“That effort failed and the effort in Dagestan will fail, too, but it doesn’t absolve the parties involved of their guilt in launching what is a direct assault on the Russian Federation,” Ritter insisted.

Eight of the nine migrants prosecuted for gang-raping a 14-year-old in 2020 didn’t receive jail time

In Germany, a 20-year-old woman has been given a jail sentence for making “hateful” remarks about a migrant who took part in the gang-rape of a child. The woman made the remarks in a WhatsApp post. She was sentenced to spend a weekend in a juvenile prison, while all but one of the rapists walked free.

The case stems from a from a 2020 case in which a 14-year-old girl was gang-raped for hours by at least nine men with migrant backgrounds, in Hamburg. The case caused outrage when eight out of the nine perpetrators identified didn’t even go to prison, but received suspended sentences. A single rapist was sent to juvenile prison for two years.

The young woman who has just been jailed contacted one of the perpetrators when his personal information was leaked on the internet. She called him a “dishonorable rapist pig” and a “disgusting monstrosity.”

According to her indictment, she also told the man he would be unable to go anywhere without “getting punched in the face,” and asked “Aren’t you ashamed when you look in the mirror?”

Authorities in Hamburg are still investigating up to 140 people who sent insulting messages and threats to the rapists.
