PEGIDA RALLY IN DRESDEN

Turnout was impressive.

Yesterday’s rally in Dresden marking PEGIDA’s first birthday was even more successful than originally thought, with the Daily Mail estimating the massive crowd of patriots to number 40,000.

Tommy Robinson of the English Defence League spoke. From his remarks:

“We are offered silence, free speech is all but dead in Europe. We live in a post free speech era, the attacks on Charlie Hebdo have proven that to the whole world.

“Only in assemblies like these can the truth be spoken about. And those like me who speak out about the dangers facing our countries, we’re confronted with death threats. We face harassment and persecution.

“Every country has the right to defend themselves, including Israel. And of course so does every country in Europe, including Germany.

“I encourage you people to refuse the shame game. Refuse to feel guilty. Germany is not obliged to save the refugee crisis.

“This current immigration is an invasion. Our borders are being overrun. There is little or no control. A country that cannot control its borders will soon not be a country.

“We need one banner. Save our culture. Save our country. Save our future. Unite to save a future for our children.”

A sea of flags could be seen, including not only the German flag and the Nordic Cross, but even the Rebel Flag of the American South: BIG READ HERE

Furious: Thousands of Germany’s far-right have descended on Dresden today in support of the anti-refugee group Pegida, which is celebrating its first anniversary

But Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said today his country would not host migrants permanently to appease the EU.

‘We cannot accept an understanding like “give us the money and they stay in Turkey”,’ he said.

‘Turkey is not a concentration camp.’ 

Lutz Bachmann was inspired to launch the Pegida movement after witnessing a rally held by supporters of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK).

Among other objectives, the group demanded more restrictive immigration rules, particularly for Muslims.

It aims to alter German immigration legislation, to make it more similar to that of Australia. 

According to the UN refugee office, more than 600,000 migrants have reached Europe’s shores so far this year, on dangerous journeys that have left more than 3,000 dead or missing.

The ultimate goal for many is the EU’s biggest economy, Germany, which expects to take in around one million refugees this year.
