German women facing rape threats from Muslim migrants get help from neo-Nazi group amid government inaction

Fearful and defenceless German women, many of whom were attacked and raped by gangs of Muslim men on New Year's Eve, have found an ally in a far right youth organisation with neo-Nazi links.

The group, called the Identitarian movement, has been giving German women canisters of pepper spray to defend themselves against attackers, WND reported.

Gun ownership is severely restricted in Germany while pepper spray is hard to find in German stores. The German website Focus said sales of pepper-spray have jumped 600 percent in the past two months amid mounting fears of violence coming from newly arrived Muslim asylum seekers from Syria and North Africa.

Hence, when activists from the Identitarian movement handed out free pepper spray in the German town of Halle on Monday, German women gratefully snapped up boxes of the product, according to the New Observer.

As the German government continued to pay no heed to the clamour of its citizens to put an end to the influx of new migrants, Germans are increasingly taking matters into their own hands, WND reported.

A group called "Dusseldorf is Watching" attracted 2,300 members in less than 24 hours as people clamoured for protection. Members of the group plan to attend major events to protect women from gangs of migrants.

German citizens are particularly troubled that their government is covering up migrant rape and violence with negative comments against the migrants condemned by governmental officials and main stream media as "hate speech."

Concerns are growing that the suppressed anger and frustration of the German population will lead to a rise of far-right neo-Nazi parties in Europe, particularly Germany.

"Sympathy for neo-Nazi beliefs is rising, although neo-Nazism remains a fringe political movement. ... [The] neo-Nazi groups' message of xenophobia and hate seems to be finding an increasingly receptive audience among ordinary Germans," Vox World reported.

Many Germans expressed anger when following the New Year's Eve attacks on German women in Cologne, the city's mayor refused to identify the attackers and instead blamed the women for what happened to them.

All Cologne Mayor Henriette Reker could say was for women to adopt a "code of conduct" to discourage African and Arabic men from attacking them. She said all German women could do to prevent being victimised is to keep an "arm's length" distance from strangers.

The Identitarian movement denounced the mayor for her "mocking" remarks. "This is a policy that mocks the victims: Instead of defending our security, our dignity, our way of life, and our culture, she asks us to submit to the stranger – in our own country," Identitarian said in a statement. "Our people deserve security. But this policy is a betrayal of the people."

Meanwhile in the latest incident of migrants' assault on German women, three Syrian teenagers have been arrested for attacking a girl at a swimming pool in Germany, Mail Online reported.

The three boys allegedly surrounded the 17-year-old girl in the pool before one of them groped her in an offence deemed rape under local law.

When the girl's sister, 14, tried to make them stop, she too was groped by the trio of teenagers, who were all aged under 15. The girls managed to flee and raise the alarm with the lifeguard at the swimming pool, who called the police.
