The federal government reports to the secretly meeting bodies of the Bundestag, said government spokesman Steffen Seibert. The video of Amri holding a pistol is said to have been recorded in November 2016 and passed on to the Federal Intelligence Service by a foreign secret service after the attack.
Amri shot a Polish truck driver. On December 19, 2016, he raced the truck across Breitscheidplatz in Berlin and killed eleven people. The Tunisian Islamist managed to escape and was later shot by the police in Italy. Three committees of inquiry are dealing with the case: in the Bundestag, in the Berlin House of Representatives and in the state parliament of North Rhine-Westphalia, where Amri had initially lived.
“On the one hand, we still do not know when and how the assassin got the pistol, and on the other hand, this video would once again prove the enormous misjudgment of the security authorities regarding Amri’s danger in autumn 2016,” said FDP internal politician Benjamin Strasser.
The chairwoman of the Left Party in the Bundestag committee, Martina Renner, said: “We have to assume that there are at least two threatening videos of the later assassin that are withheld from the committees of inquiry.” The federal government must now immediately provide all videos and other information about the attacker and his environment, on which there are still blocking notices. In addition to the video from November, there is said to be another video that Amri is said to have sent in October 2016 to a member of the terrorist militia “Islamic State” (IS) in Libya.
Berlin (dpa) – After the terrorist attack in Halle, more and more details about the attacker come to light. The man applied as a temporary soldier in the Bundeswehr in 2018.

He is also said to have obtained a firearm on the Internet in 2015, it became known after a meeting of the Bundestag interior committee. In connection with the Internet “Manifesto” full of anti-Semitic terms, two men from Mönchengladbach are investigated who are said to have distributed the document on the Internet.
On Wednesday a week ago, the German, heavily armed, tried to break into the synagogue in Halle an der Saale, where around 50 believers celebrated the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur.123helpme.me When the plan failed, the perpetrator shot a 40-year-old woman on the street and shortly afterwards a 20-year-old man in a kebab shop. There were several injured. The 27-year-old is on remand. He confessed to the crime and admitted anti-Semitic and right-wing extremist motives.
The assassin applied to the Bundeswehr as a temporary soldier in September 2018, according to the non-public committee meeting attended by Attorney General Peter Frank and a representative of the Federal Criminal Police Office. According to the information, the man withdrew his application later, why is not yet known. He had done military service for a few months from the end of 2010. He broke off studying chemistry.
The assassin is said to have obtained a firearm on the Internet in 2015, reported several participants at the meeting. Whether he found the weapon on the open Internet or in the so-called Darknet, a hidden part of the Internet, has not yet been finally clarified. It is also unclear whether it was a blank gun or a live weapon at the time. For the massacre he planned in the synagogue, he built several weapons himself and also made ammunition.
In Mönchengladbach, the apartment was searched on Wednesday by two men who are said to have spread the Halle assassin’s “manifesto” on the Internet. That said the spokesman for the Mönchengladbach public prosecutor’s office, Jan Steils, on a dpa request. There is a suspicion that they had disseminated documents “originating from the assassin” with incitatory content “shortly after the Halle assassination”. The 26 and 28-year-old men are being investigated for sedition.
The “Süddeutsche Zeitung” had previously reported online – after joint research with WDR and NDR – of a suspected person from Mönchengladbach. This is suspected to have been connected to the assassin and to have been informed about the planned act. The Mönchengladbach public prosecutor’s office did not comment on the ongoing investigations.
At the same time, the political debate about the attack continues. Vice Chancellor Olaf Scholz told the newspapers of the Funke media group (Wednesday) when asked whether the intellectual arsonists were also to be found in the AfD: “The AfD cannot deny its responsibility on this issue.” He was decidedly against talking about lone perpetrators.
Thuringia’s Prime Minister Bodo Ramelow warned against leading a single perpetrator and AfD debate. “It’s like a reflex. Since the NSU murders and the murder of Kassel’s district president Walter Lübcke, it has been clear that we are dealing with brown terror in Germany,” said Ramelow of the dpa in Erfurt. To hold the AfD responsible for the murder is too easy. “The AfD only makes visible what is already there. And it is certainly also a keyword for the right-wing extremist scene.”
The Catholic Church expressed its solidarity with the Jews in Germany. “We can no longer be separated from our Jewish brothers and sisters,” said the chairman of the German Bishops’ Conference, Cardinal Reinhard Marx, in Berlin on Wednesday.
Berlin (dpa) – The AfD has received harsh criticism across parties for contemptuous reactions from its ranks to the Halle terror with two dead.

Bundestag President Wolfgang Schäuble (CDU) said on Thursday that it was “unbearable” that, as a reaction to this act, driven by hatred of Jews, Twitter continued to play with segregation and exclusion. This also applies to the attempt to “further test the limits of decency” by spreading such reactions (via retweet), he emphasized. “Anyone who does this is placing himself outside the basic consensus on which our democratic order is based. And that applies even more to members of this House.”
Federal Interior Minister Horst Seehofer (CSU) said to AfD parliamentary group leader Alexander Gauland: “I just ask you: distance yourself from such statements.” However, Gauland strictly refused: “As long as a member of the federal government can say that the AfD is the political arm of right-wing terrorism, I do not apologize for anything.” If that were so, “then you would be the political arm of Islamist terror,” he said to the government with a view to migration and asylum policy. “At this point I allow myself to ask who created the climate that made the attack on Breitscheidplatz possible.”
Federal Justice Minister Christine Lambrecht (SPD) replied: “Mr. Gauland, what was just delivered here was not worthy of a politician in the German Bundestag.”
The trigger for the dispute was the chairman of the legal committee of the Bundestag, Stephan Brandner (AfD). Among other things, he had spread the message of another user on Twitter. He had written that the victims from Halle were “a German who liked to listen to folk music” and “an organic German”. “Why do politicians hang around with candles in mosques and synagogues?” The committee then openly opposed its chairman.
Brandner apologized for his behavior in a plenary statement on Thursday hours after the debate. He stated that he had “not shared the content of these statements from the start”. He apologizes if people “felt attacked or badly treated” by his retweet.
In Halle in Saxony-Anhalt, a 27-year-old German tried on Wednesday last week to use gun violence to gain access to a synagogue. When this failed, he killed a passerby and later a man in a kebab shop. The man has confessed to the crime and given right-wing extremist and anti-Semitic motives. More than 50 people were in the synagogue to celebrate the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur.
“It was an act with the clear goal of killing as many Jews as possible. Only fortunate circumstances prevented further victims,” said Schäuble in the Bundestag.
Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier called October 9, 2019 in the evening at an event organized by the Konrad-Adenauer-Foundation a “day of shame and shame for this country”. He made it clear in a shocking way: “Yes, we have a problem with our political culture of debate. With a culture of debate that over the past few years has allowed a dangerous substrate of brutal language, hatred and agitation to grow. The path from such brutal, cynical , relentless language to overt violence, this path has clearly become shorter, if not short. “
In response, the federal and state interior ministers want to discuss measures to combat right-wing extremism at a special conference this Friday. According to the group of participants, the meeting in Berlin will also discuss nationwide uniform precautions for the protection of synagogues.
In the Bundestag, the SPD parliamentary group leader Rolf Mützenich said that perhaps the perpetrator von Halle acted alone. “But it is supported by a system of agitation, chauvinism and right-wing extremism. And the AfD is part of this system.” Green parliamentary group leader Anton Hofreiter said almost word for word. He also said: The fact that the AfD does not distance itself from anti-Jewish tweets from its own ranks shows their true colors, “and that shows that you are not a democratic party”. FDP parliamentary group leader Christian Lindner also criticized the lack of distancing from the “derailments” on Twitter: “The rule here is: whoever remains silent agrees.”
The Jewish community in Halle wants to keep the door to the synagogue, which the perpetrator could not open even with armed force. However, it should not remain in its previous position. “Possibly we will put them outside the synagogue in the courtyard so that when you come into the synagogue you can see how this door saved us,” said the chairman of the Jewish community, Max Privorotsky. The door may also be in the city in the future.
Berlin (dpa) – Chief Commissioner M. has brought a thick folder from Düsseldorf. The 59-year-old officer of the North Rhine-Westphalian State Criminal Police Office (LKA) wants to be well prepared for his testimony before the committee of inquiry into the terrorist attack on Breitscheidplatz.

What are the chances of a white Christmas?
Because he knows that he will trigger a small political earthquake here in the Bundestag.
The criticism that he is about to bring is directed not only against the Berlin police. She largely lost sight of the later Christmas market attacker Anis Amri in 2016 – although the investigators in North Rhine-Westphalia trusted him to carry out an attack at any time.
