After the atrocities committed by Hamas on October 7, 2023, Ralf Sedlak, a pastor in Langenau, Germany, condemned the attacks and expressed his sympathy for the Jewish victims of rapes, tortures, mutilations and murders. As a result, Pastor Sedlak has ever since become the object of threats and violence by pro-Palestinian mobs, and not only he, but all the members of his congregation, have been subject to threats and harassment. More on this appalling situation can be found here: “Violent Anti-Israel Protests Target Pastor, Congregation in German Town,” by Ailin Vilches Arguello, Algemeiner, July 16, 2025:
Anti-Israel protests in the southern German town of Langenau have recently escalated into physical violence against congregants, after a local pastor publicly condemned the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas-led invasion of and massacre across southern Israel.
In the German town near the city of Ulm, anti-Israel agitators gather every weekend outside St. Martin’s Church, targeting local pastor Ralf Sedlak and his congregation, accusing them of ignoring the suffering of Palestinians in the Gaza conflict.
In the view of these anti-Israel bullyboys, no sympathy must be expressed for the victims of Hamas atrocities. To do so is to “ignore the suffering of Palestinians.”
Last weekend, the activists once again protested outside the church, leaving behind bloodied baby dolls, severed limbs, antisemitic caricatures on signs, and a blood-stained teddy bear at the church’s entrance, according to German media reports.
Imagine being the members of the congregation, having to step over these grotesque piles of “bloodied baby dolls, severed limbs, antisemitic caricatures” and so on. And this has been going on week after week, ever since October 2023. How many of those congregants were not able to stand those sights and have moved, or will move, reluctantly, to another church? Where were the police to prevent such harassment? Why are these protesters not arrested for their constant harassment of the pastor and his church?
They also hung a banner depicting a caricature of a Jew wearing a gas mask, supposedly “bathing in the blood of Palestinian victims” — with Germany and the United States shown as supporting the scene.
Given the escalating threats, local authorities placed the church under police protection after around 35 protesters gathered early Sunday morning, deliberately positioning themselves at the church exit to verbally confront worshippers, Bild and the Jüdische Allgemeine reported.
During last weekend’s incidents, the church was vandalized with swastikas, and Sedlak was subjected to insults and threats.
Finally, the police have after 20 months of harassment at the church decided to provide police protection. Why, one wonders, did it take so long? And why aren’t those engaged in such harassment not arrested for disrupting church services and threatening violence against both Paster Sedlak and his congregation?
Thanks to the growing population of Muslim migrants in the country, Germany is again being made safe for antisemitism. It is not only the migrants, but also those among the indigenous Germans whom they have contaminated with their views, who are responsible for the vertiginous rise in the number of antisemitic acts. If Germany wants Jews in the country to be safe, it will have to call a halt to Muslim migrants, and work to deport as many of them as possible back to their countries of origin. As of now, only one political party, the Alternative für Deutschland, headed by the redoubtable Alice Weidel, has openly espoused an anti-immigrant platform, which everyone in Germany knows is directed not at immigrants in general, but specifically at Muslim migrants. These migrants take full advantage of every benefit the generous German welfare state makes available. The migrants now cost the state 36 billion euros annually in benefits—housiing, medical care, education, family allowances, and more. . In addition, Muslims are responsible for the steep rise in crime, especially violent crime. Muslims make up 8% of the population but more than half of the prison population. With a handful of exceptions, they have no desire to integrate into a society of Infidels who are, all Muslims know, “the most vile of created beings.”
In 2015, former Chancellor Angela Merkel threw open the doors of her country to a million, mainly Muslim, immigrants, confidently telling her people that “Wir Schaffen Das!” That means “We Can Do This” — we can successfully integrate migrants into our society. No, I’m afraid that after a decade, the returns are in. It’s not for want of trying on the part of the generous hosts, but the fault, rather, of the ungrateful Muslim guests, that the Germans “can’t do this.”

The Nazis are making a comeback in Germany.
But now they are ethnically Arabs who have come in under Amnesty umbrella and not necessarily Germans. These Arabs are most in tune with Nazi views of Jews.
Big Dude says
The sad thing is that these Arabs are not touched, not arrested anywhere in Europe. I believe that Europe is finished. What was done to the Jews will be done to the Christian Europeans. As a Jew, frankly, I have mixed feelings. When i read about the Dutch, the Ukrainians, Balts, the French, even English… I realize that Gd works very slowly but justice is being served, albeit to the third and fourth generations as promised in the bible.
Europe is in for a really bad time. The church will have done to it by Islam what Christianity did to Judaism. I won’t be alive to see what will happen in 20 years, but it won’t be good. Europe is getting its comeuppance.

Very hateful.

Truly disgusting. The church needs a big water cannon. A really big water cannon.
May the reaping of this rotten fruit soon begin.

The water cannon should be loaded with extremely cold water.

This would have warmed the heart of Herr Schicklgruber. After all, Islam was the old boy’s favorite religion:

Islam makes the German Nazi Party look like Boy Scouts in comparison due to Islam’s terrorism, discrimination, hatred, and violence against all Non-Muslims as taught in Islam’s Quran(Quran 98:6-7; 9:5, 29, 111, etc.). Islam is a hideous, totalitarian system of satanic proportions.
Allah’s hateful Islam, a Criminal-Terrorist Enterprise and a Murderous-Demonic Cult of Believers, Muslim Soldiers for Allah, continually fund, promote, and practice ideological subversion, propaganda, bigotry, discrimination, deceit, mass murder, intimidation, supremacy, segregation, hatred, incitement to violence, criminality, genocide, victimhood, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law, Sharia, and in Islam’s Quran(Quran 9:41, 88; 5:35, etc.).
Allah’s specious ideology in Qur’an 8:39 commands Muslims to fight Non-Muslims until they surrender to Muslim rule when it says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…” Hence, Muslim actions should be legally challenged with a multi-faceted force of Western Laws like Muslims wield against Americans and Westerners via Tax Exempt Organizations, the Media and Hollywood, Foreign Funding, etc. because Islam violates and is incompatible with Western Laws(Quran 9:5,29, 111; 47:4; 49:15; 60:4 etc.).
Like a Foreign Terrorist Organization(FTO) designated by the USA Secretary of State, Islam and its Muslims function as a MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATION(MTO) fighting against Non-Muslims to make Islam supreme and NOT A PEACEFUL religion under Western Law because Islam funds, teaches, and promotes Terrorist Criminal Organizations with Muslims as Terrorists for Allah(Quran 9:5,29, 111; 49:15 etc.).
Allah’s Islam, a supremacist Antichrist Ideology, is using Western Freedoms and Laws against Non-Muslims to conquer Non-Muslims under Islamic Rule. Non-Muslims should legally designate Islam as a Muslim Terrorist Organization(MTO) where Mosques, Muslim Schools, Islamic Centers, Sharia Courts, and Muslim Organizations are banned because of their incitement of segregation and discrimination to fight back against ISLAMIZATION, Muslim subjugation, and tyrannical violence(Quran 4:65; 9:5,29,111; 60:4; 98:6-7 and more). Sahih Bukhari 3126 says, “… the Prophet said, He who fights so that Allah’s Word(ie. Islam) should be superior, fights for Allah’s Cause.”
Allah, the Accuser, in Quran 9:111 says, “Surely Allah has purchased from the believers[Muslims] their souls and their money so that they may have the garden[Heavenly Paradise]. They engage in war for the sake of Allah[ie. Allah’s Cause), so they kill and are killed…”. Jihad death leads to Paradise. Allah in Qur’an 3:169 says, “And do not consider those who were killed for the sake of Allah as dead. Yet they are alive with their lord, receiving their provision.”
Under Islam and Islamic Law, Muslims have the Legal Right and the Quranic Duty to terrorize Non-Muslims because neglecting this QURANIC DUTY is a CRIME of Blasphemy, Unbelief, and Infidelity against tyrannical Allah. Jihad means warfare against Non-Muslims to ESTABLISH ISLAM’S RELIGION AS SUPREME(Quran 3:115, 151; 9:5, 29, 111; Muslim Law Manual: “Reliance of the Traveller”, o9.0 and more).
More specifically, Islam, a terroristic-totalitarian way of life, is a Muslim Terrorist Ideology and Murderous, Criminal Enterprise of: incitement, intolerance, continuous war, discrimination, segregation, slavery, supremacy, genocide, polygamy, propaganda, deceit, hatred, sedition, terrorism, and violence against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran(Quran 2:191, 208,216; 4:65, 89,91, 95, 115; 5:14,64; 8:12,39,60, 74; 9:5,21,29,36, 41,49, 73,88, 111,123; 21:92; 47:4; 49:15; 60:4; 61:9-11; 62:6; 89:14; etc.).

That is so true. Thank you for saying this.

This is why when I think of someone like Angela Merkel I am filled with contempt.
Islam is despicable but national suicide is even more despicable.

The Germans have forgoten how muslims treat the Germans like the attack on women in Cologne several years ago. They prefer to bury their heads in the sand, and pick easier target who will never harms them. But most people do that too, very coward and selfish.
SA P says
Those same women probably voted for the left again, so in a sense, you got what you deserve.
Christian people in Germany should be very concerned, because they do not have a clue how tough it will get for them every passing day. Zero chance they do anything about it, so in a sense, they also deserve what these newcomer have in store.
Lowe says
Who remembers that story a few years ago , Muslim migrants burglars break into a German family home, and rap* the wife, the child hears nosies and hides under the bed. The husband goes to check, and guess what he did. He ran to his room and hid under the bed and called the police. My god, is that a perfect example of what’s happening over there.
I don’t even remember if they were caught.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
This pastor is a hero. But by siding w/ the muslims, those activists are just bringing back memories of the Nazis, even if ironically, they may claim to be Antifa
dumbledoresarmy says
God bless this pastor and his congregation and give them strength and courage to persevere.
(Perhaps they need a few Hounds of Heaven: a few large well-trained alsatians and dobermans, patrolling the perimeters…might discourage trespassers!).
Who knows… maybe the pastor and/or members of his congregation have been lurking here at Jihadwatch, listening and learning…
OLD GUY says
Pro-Palestinian activist paid for by who. Is it people like Soros, or money from muslim rich oil countries that funds both the jihad and the activism against those who speak out about it?
These so called activist don’t just show up. Someone is doing the planning and coordination of the events. And in many cases these so called activist are paid to demonstrate and march or they wouldn’t be there.
These leaders and funders need to be exposed and prosecuted for the crimes they are creating and paying for.

So when the anti Israel Pali morons paint a swastika on the side of the Church they are just leaving their calling card as islamism is the new version of nazism.
Hitler LOVED the muslims and some SS Officers converted to the Religion of Piss and today the muslims still love Hitler and his low life gang of peodo fuckers and their hatred of everybody not muslim but first up are the Jewish people and then the Homosexuals and then the useful Liberal idiots and then everybody and anybody that calls it a Fascist Religious Cult of Death… Like I do…
