The country’s domestic intelligence agency has suspended its ‘extremist’ designation for the party following legal and public backlash.
Germany’s domestic intelligence agency has temporarily suspended its classification of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party as a “confirmed right-wing extremist” group, pending the outcome of a legal appeal.
The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) suspended the label on Thursday and removed a press release about the designation from its website.
The classification, which was announced by the BfV last week, was based on a comprehensive report alleging that the AfD promotes policies excluding individuals with migrant backgrounds, particularly Muslims, from full societal participation. The BfV claimed that the party “disregards human dignity” and uses terms such as “knife-wielding migrants” to ascribe violent tendencies to non-European ethnic groups.
The AfD leadership condemned the decision as “a severe blow to German democracy” and filed a lawsuit in a Cologne court, arguing that the classification was politically motivated and lacked sufficient evidence. As a result, the BfV temporarily withdrew the classification, but said it would monitor the party as a “suspected case” of an extremist organization.
The suspended designation would have empowered the BfV to carry out broad surveillance of the AfD’s activities. The lower-level designation also allows surveillance, but under stricter judicial oversight.
AfD co-leaders Alice Weidel and Tino Chrupalla welcomed the temporary suspension, calling it “a first important step” that will help “counter the accusation of right-wing extremism.”
The ‘extremist’ label was met with skepticism by many German politicians. Then-German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and incoming Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt warned against banning the AfD. Dobrindt has argued that the party should be made irrelevant through good governance rather than drastic measures.
He also insisted on a discussion over the reasons that the AfD has risen to prominence, referring to recent polls indicating that it has become the most popular party in Germany, reaching 26% support.
The AfD’s surge has often been attributed to public frustration over the immigration policies of the mainstream parties, as well as economic challenges and perceived government ineffectiveness.
But they wont label the current Jewish sympathizing, pro-mass illegal immigration government as a threat, who are flooding Europe with people of no economic or social worth, who commit crime from the moment they arrive, who do not work and set up business as baby factories.
They also wont label the current extremist government as a threat, even though the said government is the moving force behind the mass people trafficking scheme, which does not investigate how these people are being moved, who is financing it, who funds the NGO’s.
Europe has been infiltrated by a hostile force, by the Communist/Bolshiviks that occupied Eastern Europe who compromised or indoctrinated the future leaders of Europe (MI5 had a file on Keir Starmer as they were concerned with all of his trips to the Eastern Bloc as a student, Mercle defected to the East and was educated in East Germany).
Once they had all their players in place the Bloc was dissolved and the West brought their enemies in to the fold and were quickly out manouvoured.
Russia became more Nationalist after Communism and are now under attack by the Bolshivik West to bring it back into line, the Western Bloc is now trying to perge the Bloc of any groups (like the AFD) that could repeat that within the Bloc.
What an AMAZING AND ACCURATE OBSERVATION!
Thank you for noting the J3wish factors in the current world, and acknowledging who and what the REAL enemies are, and it certainly IS NOT Russia!
A good example of “we the people” push back against freedom restricting policies by corporate foreign agents masquerading as governments.
Rise up We the People everywhere and exercise our God given power. Well done German freedom fighters.
“knife-wielding migrants” to ascribe violent tendencies to non-European ethnic groups. Yes well that because there have been many attacks by people, who meet that very definition across Europe. A call for common sense immigration policies, is hardy radical, its the complete opposite. Its common sense, designed to keep people safe in their sovereign nation.
The real radicals and extremists, are these political globalists, who not only show no care for their own people’s safety but instead look to criminalise, anyone who dares question the obvious.
