POLL: Across Political Spectrum Massive Majority Reject Islam After Migrant Crisis (Europe)

The number of Germans who say Islam does not belong in their country has risen from just over half to more than 60 per cent in two years, as over a million mostly young Muslim men arrived last year.

Only 34 per cent of respondents to a poll for Infratest Dimap on Thursday said that Islam belonged in their culture, with 60 per cent rejecting it in Germany.

The mass sex attacks in Cologne by Muslim migrants on New Year’s Eve, and the terror attacks in Paris and Brussels, no doubt effected the German people. The poll revealed that 72 per cent worry about a terror attack in Germany, while only a quarter do not believe it will happen.

However, the rise of anti-Islam views seems to have begun around 2010, prior to the attacks, and it only accelerated as the migrant crisis got underway last year.

Six years ago, more than half of the German population were ready to embrace Islam when ex-President Christian Wulff infamously declared: “Islam is now also a part of Germany”.

However, a poll conducted in August 2014 showed the tables had turned, and the majority was now opposed to Islam. In that year, 52 per cent of respondents were against the idea that Islam is a part of Germany, while 44 per cent supported it.

From just over 50% to just over 60%? That's it? I'd have expected a much larger percentage increase.

Ah, I'm SURE that these opinions were taken correctly, asking MILLIONS of people, of all strata, money and education.

I am SURE of that. Lol.
Surveys are the very LEAST authoritative way to get true information from "the public." Any stat student could tell you that as it's one the the first premises taught in your basic Stat 10 class.

You and the rest of the reading public are receiving EXACTLY the information that the press wants it to get...not a verb more.

MY guess is that 99.9% of the GERMAN people, that is, those of Teutonic origins, want the Muslims OUT of Germany forever AND make it verboten to let them enter the country.
What harm in that? The European presses LOVE to make all Germans out to be the bad guys in ALL cases for EVERYTHING wrong on the planet. They are used to being the bad guys, so what's the diff if they can keep the Muslims OUT of their precious Deutschland?

Just a thought.

Disliking Islam is NOT a disease, it’s common sense.

Merkel to Germans:

I will turn your face to alabaster.

When you find your servant is your master.
