Garmisch-Partenkirchen
The school’s principal, Gisela Herl would not confirm the incident when questioned by the media, but said the school would issue a written statement detailing its position in the coming week.
The father of a pupil at a girl’s primary school in German ski resort Garmisch-Partenkirchen discovered that his daughter had been instructed to recite an Islamic prayer after he came across a handout she had been given.
According to her father, teachers wanted the class to memorise the Islamic chants. The disgruntled dad forwarded the handout to Austrian news service unsertirol24.com.
In the handout the verses to be repeated included: “Oh Allah, how perfect you are and praise be to you. Blessed is your name, and exalted is your majesty. There is no God but you.”
The controversial teaching had been part of a class in “ethics” at the Bavarian school. It is not known if the school will be including classes on conquest and slavery.
The incident comes just weeks after parents complained to German newspaper Hessian Niedersächsische Allgemeine (HNA) that their children’s nursery was refusing to acknowledge “Christmas rituals” to accommodate the “diverse cultures” of other children represented in the class.
The Sara Nussbaum House daycare centre in Kassel refused to put up a Christmas tree, tell Christmas stories or celebrate Christmas in general because only a minority of pupils are Christian, they say.
According to Breitbart, Catholics are distraught because of what they say has been a trend in municipal kindergartens for some time, as migrants outnumber native children at many schools in Germany with the country has been inundated with migrants recently.
A spokesman for the Kassel daycare centre explained why they thought Christian children had no right to their religious festivities: “There will be no Christmas celebrations in the strictest sense. Because the majority of children at this kindergarten are not Christian, the festival will not be celebrated in the way that it is at other schools.”
Marita Gill, president of a Catholic nursery school, told HNA that while 92 of the 98 children enrolled at her institution are from migrant parents, they all celebrate Christmas. Gill said the children who attend St Boniface daycare centre, from 28 different nations, enjoy Christmas stories during Advent.
Gill expressed her disappointment that Christian festivals now barely play a role at state daycare centres. She told HNA: “This is our culture, we must not lie [about it] or change it.”
The Federal Office for Migration and Refugees estimates that another 200 000 people will apply for asylum in 2017.
Meanwhile, in the northern German town of Rendsburg, parents of a German teenager may face a trial and fine for “truancy” after refusing to allow their son to go to a local mosque on a school field trip.
School principal Renate Fritzsche told NDR that the field trip to the mosque was meant to promote “tolerance and diversity”.
The parents expressed their concern in mid-June, out of fear that it would lead to his indoctrination by Islamists. Their child, a 13-year-old student would have visited a mosque reportedly organized as part of a geography class.
In a letter to the class teacher quoted by the NDR, the teen’s father argued that his son would be “indoctrinated” in the mosque visit. He added that “for years we have been hearing reports about religiously-motivated violence connected with Islamic people.”
A local education authority subsequently fined the couple €300, citing school regulations and regional laws which include penalties for truancy, but the parents’ lawyer, Alexander Heumann, argues that they refused the school trip out of fear for their son’s “bodily safety.”
The parents are opposing the fine. Their case has now been forwarded to Peter Mueller-Rakow, a local prosecutor, who will decide whether or not to proceed with a court trial, Spiegel reported.
Denying that their refusal is a faith-based decision, their lawyer stressed that the couple do not belong to any religious group, and are of the opinion that “nobody shall be forced into a sacred place against his good will.”
Principal Fritzsche says Muslim parents and their offspring know that there are “no exceptions” adding that swimming lessons and sex education are compulsory for Muslim children. “It is not the responsibility of the parents to say: ‘My child will attend such or such class,’” Fritzsche asserted.

NOAA Predicts Zero Sunspots for Almost the Whole 2030s
CLIMATEThe United States' government scientific organization, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), predicts zero sunspots from 2031 to 2040. This is an extreme situation that has not occurred in as long as humanity has been counting sunspots, and it leads us into uncharted territory in terms of our solar system. However, this prediction aligns with the warnings of the world-renowned solar researcher Valentina Zharkova for many years, who indicated in 2019 various signs of this catastrophic phenomenon, including the extreme hailstorms we have seen in Europe and the world this summer. The forecast and various observations this year give cause for very significant concern. In this unique analysis, Free West Media explains why.
European Nationalist Parties Forge Cooperation Ahead of EU Elections
EUROPEAN ELECTIONSOn Saturday, August 26, representatives of six European nationalist parties gathered in Budapest. The meeting was initiated by the Hungarian party Mi Hazánk and took place in the national parliament. Representatives of the parties signed a joint declaration that not only reaffirms the parties' friendship but also their unity on a range of complex political issues. A surprisingly clear and radical manifesto was established. The hope is that this cooperation will lead to success in the EU elections and eventually result in the formation of a group in the European Parliament. For Swedish nationalism, this meeting marks a success as Sweden, for the first time, has a party represented in a leading nationalist cooperation in Europe. Free West Media was present at this historic event.

Swedish Weapon Takes Down Russia’s Best Attack Helicopter
The Russian attack helicopter Ka-52 is considered one of the world's best and has struck fear in Ukraine, where it has hunted down tanks and other armored vehicles, often beyond the range of many light anti-aircraft systems.

The Sun Drives Earth’s Climate, Not Carbon Dioxide
Top Researchers Push Back Against Climate Lies."The correlation is as clear as day," explained the Israeli astrophysicist Nir Shaviv, who was hailed by the establishment, before his interview with Forbes was hastily deleted. What he says contradicts the climate narrative, which points to humans as responsible for Earth's climate. Shaviv firmly asserts that it is the sun that controls the climate, something that can be scientifically proven in many ways. Contrary to the popular belief, the sun's influence on Earth has, in recent years, caused unusually cold and rainy weather, a trend that solar researchers warn will worsen significantly in the coming decades. The sun has exhibited an unusually low activity since 2016, during Solar Cycle 24, which was the weakest in a century.
Strong Confidence in German AfD
Alternative for Germany (AfD) held a party conference on July 29-30 to select candidates for the upcoming EU election next year. EU Parliament member Maximilian Krah, belonging to the party's more radical, ethnonationalist faction, was appointed as the top candidate. The party's two spokespersons delivered powerful speeches criticizing the EU's failed migration policy and trade sanctions that isolate Europe and Germany from the rest of the world. They argued that it's time for the EU to return a significant portion of its power to national parliaments. However, they have dropped the demand for Germany to exit the EU.
