Germany’s Madness Rewards Violent Deportees

by Bob Hickok

Bob Hickok blasts the outrageous insanity of Germany’s legal system, where a violent deportee who assaulted police officers is allowed to stay, exposing how Orwellian red tape is eroding the nation’s sovereignty and betraying its citizens.

The situation unfolding at Düsseldorf Airport in Germany is a textbook example of Orwellian absurdity, where common sense is twisted into bureaucratic nonsense, leaving the rule of law in shambles. Imagine this: a 38-year-old man from Ivory Coast, who has repeatedly resisted deportation, viciously attacks two police officers. On the way to the plane, he injured one police officer by punching him in the head and another officer by biting his hand. Both had to be taken to the hospital by ambulance: one with a suspected concussion and the other with a deep bite wound. Yet, instead of being held accountable, the immigrant is allowed to stay in Germany. Welcome to the dystopian reality of modern-day Europe.

According to a government directive, if a deportee refuses to board the plane or puts up any resistance — whether active or passive — he can simply be released and sent back to his accommodation. This is not just a bureaucratic slip-up; it is a dangerous precedent that rewards defiance and undermines the very fabric of our legal system. The Lower Saxony State Reception Authority admitted that the order was “misleading and imprecisely formulated,” but this half-hearted excuse only adds to the farce. How can an authority that is not even authorized to issue such orders get away with telling the Federal Police to let criminals walk free?

This is straight out of Orwell’s 1984, where the truth is inverted, and logic is turned on its head. Law-abiding citizens suffer while the system bends over backward to accommodate those who break the law. The spokesperson’s claim that violent resisters can only be detained with a judicial order is laughable. The reality is that even after such attacks, perpetrators are often released, showcasing Germany’s complete lack of resolve.

Manuel Ostermann, the deputy chairman of the Federal Police Union, hit the nail on the head when he called this “bureaucratic madness” and said the rule of law has been “brought to absurdity.” The idea that a violent offender could be released back into society because of red tape is an insult to every law-abiding citizen and to the officers who risk their lives to enforce the law.

This scenario is an Orwellian nightmare where the state’s incompetence and misguided policies prioritize the rights of foreign criminals over those of its own citizens. It is a clear sign that the federal government is not serious about tackling deportation. Instead, they prefer to make grand announcements with no follow-through, leaving the German nation to descend further into chaos.

Germany’s lenient immigration policies have led to a surge in violent crime, particularly knife attacks, with migrants from the Middle East and Africa disproportionately involved. A stark example is the case of Ibrahim A., a Palestinian immigrant who arrived in 2014 and has a history of criminal behavior, including drug offenses, theft, and violent assaults. Released from pretrial detention in Hamburg on January 19, 2023, after serving a year for stabbing a man, Ibrahim A. was back on the streets just days later. On January 25, he carried out a brutal attack on a train in Brokstedt, killing two people and injuring four others. This tragic case underscores the catastrophic failure of Germany’s immigration and justice systems, which not only allowed a repeat offender to remain in the country but also let him commit further atrocities. Instead of addressing the real issue — uncontrolled immigration and weak judicial responses — the government is pushing ineffective knife regulations, leaving German citizens to pay the price for its ideological blindness.
