They are preparing for large-scale violent jihad in Europe against Jewish targets. And there are likely to be more attempts, as Stephan Weh, Berlin police union chief, suggested when he said: “As a Western metropolis, Berlin remains a focal point for radical Islamist networks, which today primarily recruit new members and supporters via social media.”
Nonetheless, Weh states that this Berlin court ruling was important, given the precedent it establishes, and especially since Hamas is not a designated terror group under German law. As Western authorities become more knowledgeable about organized jihad groups, they still lag too far behind. They are still reckless about immigration and Islam itself, while jihad terror is regularly committed in its name. It is important to remember in this connection that Hamas (Harakat al-Muqawama al-Islamiyya) means Islamic Resistance Movement.
“Berlin Court Jails 4 Men in Landmark Hamas Weapons Case, First German Ruling Treating Membership as Terror Offense,” by Ailin Vilches Arguello, Algemeiner, March 26, 2026:
Four men were sentenced to prison in Berlin on Wednesday for operating a covert Hamas weapons-stockpiling network across Europe in preparation for potential terrorist attacks — a landmark ruling marking the first time a German court convicted members of the Palestinian terrorist group under the country’s terrorism laws.
The Berlin State Protection Senate — a special national-security chamber within the Berlin Court of Appeal — convicted the defendants of stockpiling weapons for future attacks in Europe, including possible targets in Germany, sentencing them to four and a half to six years in prison for membership in a foreign terrorist organization and related charges.
The court determined the men, aged 36 to 58, had acted as foreign operatives for Hamas’s military wing, the al-Qassam Brigades, and had already helped establish several firearms caches across Europe.
According to official records, the defendants helped build weapons depots as part of “preparations to carry out attacks on Jewish and Israeli targets in European countries,” with possible targets including the Israeli Embassy in Berlin, the US Ramstein Air Base in southwestern Germany, and Berlin’s former Tempelhof airport.
German authorities also found the stockpiles were meant for attacks on Israeli, Jewish, or other targets across Europe over an extended period, with sites discovered in multiple countries including Poland, Bulgaria, and Denmark….
Hamas, long supported by the Iranian regime as well as Qatar and Turkey, is designated as a terrorist organization by the European Union and several other Western countries, including the United States.
However, the terrorist group has not been officially classified as such under German law, making Wednesday’s ruling especially important because it sets a legal precedent allowing membership in the group to be treated as a criminal offense.
“It’s a clear and important ruling by the Berlin Court of Appeal, even though we know that it does not in itself reduce the danger of terrorist attacks,” Stephan Weh, Berlin police union chief, said in a statement.
“As a Western metropolis, Berlin remains a focal point for radical Islamist networks, which today primarily recruit new members and supporters via social media,” he continued….

Islam’s Muslims, Terrorists of Allah, are a continuous, terroristic threat against Non-Muslims while applying discrimination, segregation, violence, and terrorism as taught by Allah in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 9:5, 29, 111; 49:15, etc.). Potential Muslim threats come from Mosques, Muslim Homes, Muslim Schools, Islamic Centers, Muslim Organizations, etc. while following Allah’s command to kill and be killed in the cause of Allah to make Islam supreme. Non-Muslims are Allah’s worst creatures because they do not believe in Allah. Allah is Qur’an 8:55 says, “Surely the worst creatures before Allah are those who became infidels, so they do not believe.” See also Qur’an 7:179; 98:6.
Allah in Qur’an 9:29 commands, “Engage in war with those who do not believe in Allah nor in the last day[Non-Muslims]. Nor forbid what Allah and his messenger forbid[via Islamic Law], nor believe in the religion of the truth[Islam] among those who have given the book[Jews and Christians] until they pay the jizyah[Extortion Payment] out of hand and they are subdued[disgraced].”

Don’t worry, these guys will be released from jail soon and reimbursed for the cost of the weapons.

That sounds about right.

If no Muslims had been allowed into Germany Berlin would not and could not be ‘a focal point for radical Islamist networks’ (i.e. for piously orthodox Mohammedans seeking to carry out the prime directive of The Religion of Blood and War, waging Jihad fi sabil allah). That is the long and the short of it.
“Got Muslims? GOT JIHAD”.
The Ummah – the mohammedan Mob – is the nurturing, sheltering sea within which the jihadis and sharia-enforcers swim and from which, ceaselessly and naturally and inevitably, they emerge.
That, by now, OUGHT to be moderately obvious for anyone living in ANY still-majority-non-islamic and not officially and legally Islamic country anywhere in the world, be it India, Thailand, the Philippines… USA, Canada, Australia.. a slew of African countries (e.g. Uganda, Mozambique, neither of which are majority-Muslim and are not – at least on paper – officially ‘Islamic’ and yet are bedevilled by ferocious mohammedan aggression), and… every country in Western Europe.
The ‘nice’ Muslims ‘human-shield’ the jihad plotters… it’s a goodcop/ badcop trick.
The ONLY way NOT to have jihadis plotting mass-murder and mayhem within the gates is to NOT have even ONE mohammedan within the gates. Full stop.
STOP importing them, for starters.
Then start evicting, beginning with the career criminals and all who are caught plotting jihad concocting explosives etc.
All the many, many, many successfully murderous jihadi attacks on non-Muslims that have taken place in the UK, Spain, France, Germany, wherever. all the assassinations and attempted assassinations, all the industrial-scale ferocious sexual abuse of vulnerable girls in the UK (and, I suspect, elsewhere in Europe), the mass-murders and the individual attacks (such as the throat-slitting of a French priest in his own church, and the kidnap torture and murder of Ilan Halimi, a French Jew, in France, and the beheading of Lee Rigby, a young British soldier, in broad daylight in a street in Britain) would NOT have occurred, if NO Muslims had ever been permitted to enter into and settle within the gates of Europe.

dumbledoresarmy,
All true.
And, to your point, countries like Poland and Hungary keep muslims OUT.

Expel them. If they have acquired German citizenship, strip it from them; and expel them.
