Muslim kindergartens are a growing trend in Germany and there are plans to open many more.

The city of Neumünster in the German state of Schleswig-Holstein is opening its first Muslim kindergarten in the city center, which, at 2,500 square meters, will have space for 60 children. While the Christian Democrats (CDU) describe the new daycare as “cultural enrichment,” a previous government report notes that the sponsor behind the daycare is “strictly Sharia-oriented.”

The Neumünster council backed the new Islam-focused kindergarten, which will cost €2.8 million, by a large majority, and the grand opening is planned for next year. The financial sponsor is a local mosque association that belongs to the umbrella organization known as the Association of Islamic Cultural Centers (VIKZ) based in Cologne. However, the VIKZ is a controversial organization.

The Hessian Ministry of Social Affairs commissioned a report from Ursula Spuler-Stegemann, who is an expert on Turkey, in 2004. Her report stated that student residences operated by the VIKZ were used “almost exclusively for Islamic teaching and for training in religious practice” and were “absolutely detrimental to integration.” In such educational settings, students were “indoctrinated into a strictly Sharia-oriented” form of Islam and “immunized against Christianity and the West, as well as against our constitution.”

Politicians are well aware of the track record of the VIKZ, but nonetheless the Neumünster city council voted overwhelmingly in favor of the new daycare center, with 44 votes for it and only six against, and one abstention. 

“In addition to Christian providers, there will now also be a Muslim provider of a daycare center. I see this as a cultural enrichment,” said Babett Schwede-Oldehus, the CDU chairwoman of the social and health committee, before the vote was taken.

The laws proscribed by Sharia and conservative Islam are radically at odds with what German liberals say they want for their nation, yet for the sake of promoting multiculturalism, most liberal groups and activists promote the idea of more Muslim immigration, cultural associations, and mosques being built.

The only parties to vote against the daycare were the Alternative for Germany (AfD) and Heimat Neumünster (formerly NPD), which both have three seats.

The operators of the daycare say that the daycare center will also accept non-Muslim students and the language spoken by children in the daycare will be German — although enforcing this latter promise may prove to be difficult.

There is a daycare crisis across Germany, with many existing kindergartens struggling to fill daycare roles; however, this Muslim kindergarten already has 13 daycare workers

While the kindergarten will be paid for by the Association of Islamic Cultural Centres (VIKZ), the city will subsidize equipment with €250,000 and pay the annual rental costs of €180,000. 

The VIKZ has ambitious plans to expand daycare centers across Germany, with a number of them already existing in Berlin and Dortmund.

A poll conducted in May of this year by Insa found that an absolute majority of 52 percent rather agree with the statement that “Germany should generally no longer accept refugees from Islamic countries.” Only 34 percent say they “disagree” or “tend to disagree” with this statement. The poll further shows that 54 percent of respondents said they were “afraid that Germans will become a minority in Germany.” On the other hand, 37 percent said they were not concerned.

In 2023, a poll conducted for Bild newspaper found that nearly two-thirds of all German citizens want the country’s federal government to impose a ban on migration from predominantly Muslim nations.

Polling conducted by INSA on behalf of the Bild tabloid newspaper showed that 61 percent of respondents now advocate refusing any more migrants from Islamic countries, with many explaining they no longer feel safe in their own country and believe an increasing number of new arrivals despise German society.

Nigel Farage: “The politics of the subcontinent are currently playing out on the streets of Leeds. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

A riot erupted in the northern English city of Leeds on Thursday night as violent thugs set a bus on fire and tipped over a police car.

Terrified residents took to the streets to defend their property after a mob descended on the Harehills neighbourhood, forcing police to retreat from the scene. Questions remain about why the city was left unprotected as it burned.

Multiple reports say the mass riot broke out after social services took away four children from a family. One local restaurant owner told The Times that some residents responded by setting fires and “throwing stones.”

West Yorkshire Police said in a statement that when officers arrived at the scene, “More people started to attend the location and a decision was made to remove the agency workers and the children to a safe place.”

People shared footage of the riot on TikTok and X. One video shows a man attempting to set fire to a bus while people look on:

An eyewitness told the Mail: “It was surreal. Rocks getting launched, bottles thrown, kids in balaclavas everywhere charging with bins.

“Furniture was thrown on to the bus that’s been set ablaze to keep it burning. It’s just carnage.”

Local Green Party councillor Mothin Ali—who earlier this year declared his election to Leeds City Council a “win for the people of Gaza”—begged the rioters to stop, saying “there’s children in there,” as police stayed back from the scene until later in the night.

Politicians from across the political spectrum condemned the riot. Reform UK leader Nigel Farage wrote on X: “The politics of the subcontinent are currently playing out on the streets of Leeds. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

When the Labour MP for Leeds Central and Headingley, Alex Sobel, accused Farage of “inflaming a situation with misinformation” and demanded an apology, Farage hit back, responding: “When will you and the Labour Party apologise for irresponsible mass migration?”

New home secretary Yvette Cooper wrote on X: “I am appalled at the shocking scenes and attacks on police vehicles & public transport in Leeds tonight. Disorder of this nature has no place in our society.”

Meanwhile, Donna Jones, chairman of the Association of Police and Crime Commissioners, toldMailOnline that the riots were a sign of “community breakdown.”

People’s lives have been put at risk and over £1 million of criminal damage and arson has been caused to public property including the double decker bus. Taking to the streets in this kind of direct action, rioting, setting fire to things and smashing up police cars, it’s a clear sign of lack of community cohesion [at] its worst level. There is never any just cause to take such violent and extreme actions, and those involved should feel the full force of the law.

This is not the first time West Yorkshire’s Harehills neighbourhood has been hit by a serious social disturbance. In 2001, a riot broke out after the wrongful arrest of a Bengali man, resulting in 26 cars being burnt out, and two police officers and two journalists severely injured. In 1995, groups of youths burnt down the Jolly Brewer pub in the Hyde Park district, just three miles away.

A wooden statue of the Virgin Mary was found stabbed in the throat, with explicit Islamist graffiti.

Desecrations of Catholic places of worship in France have increased exponentially in recent months. Most recently, a church in Paris was vandalised using acts of extreme violence. 

The vandalism occurred on the night of Sunday, July 14th at the church of Notre-Dame du Travail in the 14th arrondissement in the south of Paris. The building was defiled by explicit and violent tags calling for war, decapitation of Christians, and threatening to burn the church down.

The next day, the parishioners discovered a fire had broken out, but fortunately, it did not catch, thus avoiding irreparable damage. 

Many of the inscriptions found were explicitly Islamic in nature: “Submit to Allah the infidel, pray 5 times a day,” “Bastard Jesus, only one god, Allah,” for example, could be read on the walls of the sanctuary. 

Other damage was also reported. The organ was smashed, the sound system was damaged and the assailant even left excrement at the back of the building. One final act was particularly violent in symbolic terms. In the small community bar next to the church, a wooden statue of the Virgin Mary was found in the sink, stabbed in the throat with a kitchen knife, accompanied by the inscriptions: “Mary, here is your fate”, “We Muslims we can’t accept this f*** religion.”

The parish vicar, Abbé Vincent de Mello, believes that the attacker was isolated, perhaps “a little deranged,” but clearly “hostile and threatening,” and notes that there was no systematic destruction. A few months ago, Notre-Dame du Travail was the target of theft and damage. The parish hopes to receive funding from the city or the Paris diocese to install a video surveillance system. 

Notre-Dame du Travail church is located in a working-class district of Paris, with a large immigrant population in the vicinity. Abbé de Mello told Boulevard Voltaire that the area was hit hard by the riots in June 2023. “On Eid day in June, some people tried to get into the courtyard of the presbytery, because they knew we had a barbecue,” says the priest. On several occasions, young people shouted “Allah Akbar” during the mass, but that’s as far as it went. Since then, Islamist threats have been joined by antifascist graffiti.

Anti-Christian acts occur all over France and have been steadily and inexorably increasing for several years. The Ministry of the Interior has counted a thousand such acts in 2023 alone, 90% of which were attacks on property, churches, or cemeteries.

The WHO on Monday reported that global childhood immunization rates have stalled. Meanwhile, Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance unveiled an $11.9 billion plan to vaccinate 500 million children by 2030. Dr. Paul Thomas warned that vaccination programs are unnecessary and health agencies should focus on nutrition and overall health.

Global childhood immunization rates stalled in 2023, leaving millions of children “vulnerable to preventable diseases,” according to a new report from the World Health Organization (WHO) and UNICEF.

The latest WHO-UNICEF estimates show that 14.5 million children missed all doses of “routine” DTP vaccines last year, an increase from 13.9 million in 2022. The report also laments the gaps in measles vaccinations, noting that outbreaks hit 103 countries.

Dr. Paul Thomas, a pediatrician and co-author of the upcoming book, “Vax Facts: What to Consider Before Vaccinating at All Ages & All Stages of Life,” told The Defender the the global vaccination programs continue to use the dangerous whole-cell DTP formulation instead of the less risky acellular version.

The whole-cell vaccine, which contains the entire Bordetella pertussis organism rather than just purified components, has since the 1930s resulted in widespread reports of neurological damage. It was phased out in the U.S. by 1997, but the formulation has continued to be used in low- and middle-income countries, potentially killing millions of children.

“The irony is that success, when it is measured by how well a country or region or doctor vaccinates, in reality rewards the pharmaceutical industry and all who profit from vaccine sales at the expense of the health of the individual and the community,” Thomas said.

Thomas, the author of a study comparing the health outcomes of vaccinated versus unvaccinatedchildren, argued success should be measured on the overall health of the population, not onvaccination rates.

“The less we vaccinate, the healthier the population,” he said. “We need new metrics!”

The report comes as Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, unveiled an ambitious $11.9 billion plan — including $9 billion in new funding — to vaccinate 500 million children by 2030, with existing and new vaccines.

Key findings from WHO-UNICEF report

The WHO-UNICEF report states that the stagnation in global vaccination rates highlights ongoing challenges in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, raising concerns about disease outbreaks, particularly measles, and the impact of climate change on vaccine-preventable diseases.

The report centers on the number of children who received three doses of the DTP vaccine — a key marker for global immunization coverage — which stalled at 84% (108 million) of children in 2023, a number the WHO nonetheless called “impressive.”

The global health agency blamed the data trends on poor access to health services during the pandemic that persists, and on fragile, conflict-ridden areas.

The increase of 600,000 “zero-dose” children was particularly concerning to the WHO in light of its Immunization Agenda 2030 (IA2030) goals. IA2030 aims to “leave no one behind” by reducing the number of zero-dose children by 50% and with “500 vaccine introductions” of “new or under-utilized vaccines” in low- and middle-income countries by 2030.

Measles vaccination rates also remain a significant concern to the WHO. In 2023, only 83% of children worldwide received their first dose of the measles vaccine through routine health services, while just 74% received their second dose.

These figures fall short of the 95% coverage the WHO claims is needed to “prevent outbreaks, avert unnecessary disease and deaths and achieve measles elimination goals,” according to the WHO-UNICEF press release.

“Measles outbreaks are the canary in the coalmine, exposing and exploiting gaps in immunization and hitting the most vulnerable first,” said WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

Thomas disagreed with this take, stating that measles is not a threat to well-nourished, healthy children and that the focus on vaccines as a solution “is destroying the immune systems” of those who are highly vaccinated.

“The focus should be on making sure children of the world have adequate nutrition and adequate support of vitamins A, D and C,” he said.

Thomas emphasized the importance of comparing health outcomes for the vaccinated and unvaccinated. “The results will be shocking to all who are not informed,” he said.

Report notes ‘progress’ including HPV vax uptake

Despite the overall stagnation in global immunization rates, the WHO highlighted some areas of what it called “progress” and “resilience.”

The African region made notable strides in 2023, defying global trends by increasing routine immunization coverage. The number of zero-dose children in Africa fell from 7.3 million in 2022 to 6.7 million in 2023, with 1.5 million more children vaccinated with the DTP vaccine than in 2019, according to the report.

Bangladesh, Indonesia, Brazil, Nigeria and Ukraine made notable strides in recovering post-pandemic vaccination rates, according to Dr. Katherine O’Brien, WHO director of the Department of Immunization, Vaccines and Biologicals, and Dr. Ephrem T. Lemango, UNICEF’s associate director of immunization, who both spoke at a CNN news briefing.

The report also noted that global human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination coverage in girls increased from 20% in 2022 to 27% in 2023, returning to near pre-pandemic levels.

Dr. Sania Nishtar, CEO of Gavi, said in the press release, “The HPV vaccine is one of the most impactful vaccines in Gavi’s portfolio, and it is incredibly heartening that it is now reaching more girls than ever before.”

Thomas called the HPV shot “the most dangerous vaccine on the planet other than COVID,” and argued that it “should have been removed from the market long ago.”

“The push to increase vaccine uptake is all about money,” Thomas said. “What do you think is causing the continued ‘vaccine hesitancy’?”

The WHO also announced a call for proposals for a tuberculosis (TB) vaccine accelerator program“to fast-track the development, approval, and use of innovative” TB vaccines for adolescents and adults, and a call for experts to develop novel TB vaccines.

In its coverage of the WHO-UNICEF report, Axios noted that a new malaria vaccine began being distributed to children in the Ivory Coast. Health workers hope this will usher in a “new era” for controlling malaria in Africa.

Gavi and its ambitious plan ‘a big part of the problem’

The WHO report highlighted Gavi’s “2026-2030 Investment Opportunity” unveiled at the Global Forum for Vaccine Sovereignty and Innovation on June 20 in Paris.

The plan aims to vaccinate 500 million children by 2030 — which Gavi claims will avert up to 9 million deaths. Gavi is seeking $9 billion in new pledges of the $11.9 billion needed for the strategic period.

The proposal includes plans to vaccinate 50 million children against malaria and protect 120 million girls from cervical cancer through HPV vaccination.

The investment plan includes the “Day Zero Financing Facility for Pandemics” designed to provide a $2.5 billion “surge financing capacity to support a rapid vaccine response during major public health emergencies.”

Gavi also launched the African Vaccine Manufacturing Accelerator, a $1 billion initiative to boost vaccine production in Africa.

French President Emmanuel Macron, hosting the forum, emphasized the importance of global vaccination efforts and local production:

“This tough period has also reminded us all that every nation needed to be assured that it had the means to protect its citizens: this is what we have been calling ‘health sovereignty,’ which starts with access to the essential health products that are vaccines, which implies much more local production.”

The proposal received initial support, with $2.4 billion in new pledges announced at the launch event, including $1.58 billion from the U.S., according to the WHO press release.

Thomas said that Gavi and others involved in financing and increasing vaccine distribution are “a big part of the problem” and called for “a total paradigm shift.”

“Imagine the health and freedom and happiness that could be enjoyed worldwide if we focused on healthy nutrition, and assessed health by looking at all health outcomes when we do an intervention,” he said.

Thomas said:

“People are waking up to the truth; vaccines are destroying our health. COVID vaccines helped this awakening, but those who research the childhood vaccines will find a similar challenge. What we have been told is false.

“Vaccines are not safe and effective. Vaccine serious side effects are not one in a million but rather in the 5-10% range.

“Vaccines are not providing herd immunity but instead are creating a population more vulnerable to infections of all kinds and increasing chronic diseases including neurodevelopmental and autoimmune disorders, allergies and cancer, to name just a few.

“The WHO and all who partner with it to bring us pandemics and more immunizations need to be exposed.”
