"Who could have done this? und warum?"

At least 3 dead and 8 injured in knife attack at festival in Germany

“The attack happened Friday at 9:40 p.m. local time during a celebration for the city’s 650th anniversary. The "Festival of Diversity" [hahaha] began Friday and was to run through Sunday.”

“Vielfalt sind wir”

Herbert Reul, minister of the interior of North Rhine-Westphalia, told the press the attacker "out of nowhere" stabbed people randomly.

The dead are one woman and two men, and eight people were severely injured, he said.

"I also have great sympathy for all the people who had to witness this; it must have been terrible images. … " Kurzbach said. "I ask you, if you believe, to pray with me and if not, then to hope with me.”

God forbid he offend the non-believers.

UNRELATED, AND PURELY COINCIDENTAL, HERE’S ANOTHER REPORT FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY:

The Daily Chart: Border Control in Sweden

Completely unreported in the American media, Sweden has quietly closed its border for further “migrants” and “asylum seekers.” The Inquisitive Bird substack tells much of the story:

The number of immigrants in Sweden have greatly increased over the last few decades. Between 2002 and 2023, the share of the Swedish population that was either foreign-born or had at least one foreign-born parent increased from 21% to 35% (SCB). This has led to a natural question whether immigration has contributed to the worrying crime trends in the country. As we will see, data confirms this suspicion. The police have also spoken openly about the challenges arising from gang activity related to the immigrant influx. As a consequence, the public attitude about immigration and crime has shifted. . .

Now in 2024, Sweden’s borders are relatively closed. Projections indicate that in this year, Sweden will receive the lowest number of asylum seekers since 1997. The number of residence permits have also greatly decreased. For the first time in 50 years, Sweden is now experiencing net emigration (i.e., more leave than arrive).

Here are a couple of graphic displays of Sweden’s immigrant problem:
