Timeline: Germany’s Two Years of Islamist Terror and Migrant Crisis
This week, Germany experienced its worst terror atrocity since the 1980s, following 21 months of Islamist suicide bombings, shootings, axe attacks, and now a truck rampage.
The terrorist killers responsible have included numerous “refugees” from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Algeria, as well as several German citizens of Turkish decent indoctrinated in radical Islam. Around seven of the plots and attacks are thought to have been linked to Islamic State.
Germany appears to have become a target of Islamist aggression since the beginning of the migrant crisis in the summer of 2015, with many blaming Chancellor Angela Merkel’s opened border mass migration policy.
As the migrant crisis brewed, police foiled an Islamic State attack planned by two German citizens of Turkish descent. The men were aged 34 and 35.

The men were thought to be plotting a Boston-style attack on the Eschborn-Frankfurt City loop bike race in Oberursel, and police found bomb-making materials in their home near the race route.
As the migrant crisis reached a late summer peak, an Iraqi citizen and convicted terrorist who was claiming asylum in Germany was shot dead after stabbing a female police officer in the neck.
Rafik Mohamad Yousef, 41, was a member of a terrorist group with links to al-Qaeda, but claimed his “human rights” would be violated if he were sent back to Iraq.
Three Algerians who were said to have “lived in refugee shelters” and had links to Islamic State were arrested for plotting to attack Berlin.
The Berlin prosecutor’s office said they were aware of a “concrete” plan to target the German capital.
Later that month, another police officer was stabbed in the neck and severely injured when a 15-year-old girl of Moroccan origin, acting “on behalf of the Islamic State,” walking into a police station and attacked.
The girl held a German passport but had spent time living on the Turkish-Syrian border before being brought back to Germany by her mother, and it is possible she was radicalised by Islamic State there.

The bombers were found guilty of attempted murder and causing an explosion – but not terrorism. This is despite their links to local Salafist organisations and Islamic State.
A court later heard they had planned to kill kindergarten children with poisoned ice cream before detonating a bomb in a school car park.
Three Syrian migrants and suspected members of Islamic State were arrested in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
Authorities said two of the men planned to blow themselves up in downtown Düsseldorf, while the other attacker and a fourth jihadist arrested in France planned to target pedestrians with guns and explosive devices.
Three months later, a 17-year-old Afghan refugee went on an axe-wielding rampage on a train near the city of Würzburg, reportedly yelling “Allahu Akbar” and leaving four people injured before being shot dead by police.
Just six days later, a 27-year-old Syrian refugee who pledged allegiance to Islamic State committed the first ever suicide bombing on German soil in Ansbach.
He had originally planned to attack a music festival; but after he failed to get in, he detonated himself outside a wine bar, injuring more than a dozen people.

Police in Leipzig arrested 22-year-old Syrian refugee Jaber al-Bakr after a two-day manhunt following the discovery of explosives and other bomb-making equipment at his apartment in Chemnitz.
He was suspected of plotting to attack a Berlin airport. Two days later, he hanged himself in his prison cell.
At least 12 people died and around 50 were injured after a truck smashed its way through a Christmas market in Berlin in a suspected terror attack.
Islamic State claimed the attack, describing the driver as “a soldier of” of their jihadi terror group, and police are currently searching for a 24-year-old Tunisian immigrant suspect named as Anis A. thought to have Islamist links.

My comments: From now on Europe and America will live in Fear. This Fear will last until they realize that Islam and the West are not compatible.
