Thousands of migrants missing in Germany
Angela Merkel's migrant failure has been exposed as up to one fifth of newcomers have disappeared in Germany, leaving the country unprepared to deal with the influx.

According to a report in Die Welt newspaper, state authorities in Brandenburg “are looking for thousands of refugees” whose “whereabouts are unknown”.
German officials are hunting for over 3 000 refugees in one state alone who had vanished off the radar. Most came to Germany in 2015 via the so-called Balkan route, and fears are rising that a number of those who have gone underground may be sleepers for the Islamic State (ISIS).
The missing migrants were reported in the state of Brandenburg close to the capital Berlin, when the public prosecutor’s office began retroactive checks on the asylum seekers. “Fifteen to 20 percent of 18 000 refugees are obviously submerged,” said prosecutor Ulrich Scherding.
Officials admitted that during the chaos of the crisis the data of thousands of migrants was “inadequately captured” and those who have disappeared might be biding their time until their jihadist paymasters give them orders to commit acts of terror.
Most entered Brandenburg via Hungary and Austria during 2015, but their current whereabouts are unclear, admitted the state’s Deputy Interior Ministry spokesman Wolfgang Brandt.
An SPD politician, Brandenburg’s Interior Minister Karl-Heinz Schröter, said while it is “well known that many people who came to Germany at the height of the refugee movement later disappeared off the radar,” the technology to fingerprint all 47 000 refugees arriving in 2015, simply did not exist, but “now authorities are equipped with fingerprint storage technology”.
It is thus likely that if the 20 percent “missing” rate is replicated throughout Germany, it would mean that tens of thousands of migrants could just have “vanished” since 2015, but the hope among security officials is that some of the missing crossed the border to other countries.
Last week Angela Merkel repeated that it was Europe’s duty to take in more migrants, despite a public outcry. Speaking at the Munich security conference, Merkel also said Islam was not a source of terror after several deadly terror attacks in Berlin, as well as Paris and Nice.
Meanwhile, the state of North Rhine Westphalia, where a coalition between the SPD and the Green Party rules, announced that all Afghan “refugees” living in that state will not be handed over to the central government for deportation, even though Afghanistan was declared a “safe” country.
The state of Schleswig-Holstein issued a similar statement, but Jutta Cordt, the newly-appointed head of the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF), noted that there “are areas in Afghanistan that are considered relatively safe. There are domestic escape alternatives.”

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. However, it has met its match in the Swedish air defense missile system RBS 70, which has quickly led to significant losses for the Russian helicopter forces.
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.
