German police staged nationwide raids on Wednesday and arrested 25 people suspected of belonging to a far-right "terror cell" plotting to overthrow the government and attack parliament.
Around 3,000 officers including elite anti-terror units took part in the early morning raids and searched more than 130 properties, in what German media described as one of the country's largest police actions ever against extremists.
The raids targeted alleged members of the "Citizens of the Reich" (Reichsbuerger) movement suspected of "having made concrete preparations to violently force their way into the German parliament with a small armed group".
Those arrested are accused of having formed "a terrorist group by the end of November 2021 at the latest, which had set itself the goal of overcoming the existing state order in Germany and replacing it with their own kind of state", they said.
Two of the 25 arrests were made abroad, in Austria and Italy.
The prosecutors in Karlsruhe said they had identified a further 27 people as suspected members or supporters of the terror network.
"The accused are united by a deep rejection of state institutions and the free, democratic basic order of the Federal Republic of Germany," they said.
The Reichsbuerger movement includes neo-Nazis, conspiracy theorists and gun enthusiasts who reject the legitimacy of the modern German republic.
Its followers generally believe in the continued existence of the pre-World War I German Reich, or empire, under a monarchy and several groups have declared their own states.
Long dismissed as malcontents and oddballs, the Reichsbuerger have become increasingly radicalised in recent years and are seen as a growing security threat.
...
According to prosecutors, the terror cell suspects believe in Reichsbuerger and QAnon conspiracy theories and are "strongly convinced" that Germany is run by a "deep state" that needs to be toppled.

After war, feminism, and leftism, I’m surprised there any German men left to be right-wing extremists!?! /s
…and unfettered immigration
This reads exactly like a press release from the (Deep Announcer Voice) “January 6 Committee” with a few German words and phrases thrown in.
See: "Germany's Largest Right-Wing Extremist Group is Turkish, not German"
In part one reads: "a Turkish version of Aryanism and sets itself in opposition to anyone who is not Turkish or Sunni Islamic. It is anti-Christian and anti-Jewish, as well as anti-American, anti-Armenian, anti-Kurdish and anti-Greek."

3000 militarized police to arrest 25 people?
The global media is a mouthpiece for globalism. I’ve come to the point I don’t believe anything I read or hear anymore.
“took part in the early morning raids and searched more than 130 properties”
That takes a lot of officers.
LOL! Noticed that right off. And 24 of them were undercover Neo-Stasi.
The Germans are claiming some people are trying to overthrow the state as an excuse to round them all up into camps, again.
Does anyone really believe this was a legit threat? Did the have Confidential Informants? Did the German government inspire and finance this group?
This smells of a FBI-styled set up, like the “kidnapping” of that NY tart.
In the 1970s, Germany and Italy and other places saw urban guerilla groups (far-Left) such as the Red Army Faction / Baader-Meinhof gang that actually engaged in crimes — robberies, bombings, killings — but these groups were seen as nuisances and not serious threats that might “overthrow the government”.
Current day governments are drama queens with a new sort of Bread and Circuses schtick.
Well, there aren’t any left wing extremist anymore.../s
Well since “far right” is emphasized in the title, draws immediate suspicion it is actually ba far left group. I’ll leave it at that because I’m burnt out clicking into read something I already know the answer to.. I may be wrong on this one!!... But I’ll take my chances lol...
I was about to observe that exact same thing. Usually, with a "terror" group you can find some examples of terroristic activity to back up your assertion, but I see none of that here.
I noticed that, too.
No bombing, killings or kidnapping but plenty of armed police to intimate the sheep.
Probably a d&d club roleplaying.

The Reichsbuerger...includes neo-Nazis, conspiracy theorists and gun enthusiasts..
the Reichsbuerger have become increasingly radicalised..
Interestingly, the French "news report" echoes the same verbiage that our MSM likes to spew. Especially noteworthy is the
penchant for communists to impugn their socialist rivals as 'right wing,' when there is everything pointing to ANTIFA sentiments instead.
Just broaden the definition to mean anyone and everyone. Then infuriate people so bad that they start planning violent revolt. Self-fulfilling prophesy.
Same plan as American leftards are implementing.
Satyagraha is the best weapon against this.
