CALW, Germany — As Germany emerged from its coronavirus lockdown in May, police commandos pulled up outside a rural property owned by a sergeant major in the special forces, the country’s most highly trained and secretive military unit.The sergeant major’s nickname was Little Sheep. He was suspected of being a neo-Nazi.
The government is now waking up. Cases of far-right extremists in the military and police, some hoarding weapons and explosives, have multiplied alarmingly. The nation’s top intelligence officials and senior military commanders are moving to confront an issue that has become too dangerous to ignore. Some 48,000 rounds of ammunition and 62 kilograms, or about 137 pounds, of explosives have disappeared from the KSK altogether, she said.
In interviews conducted over the course of the year with military and intelligence officials as well as avowed far-right members themselves, they described nationwide networks of current and former soldiers and police officers with ties to the far-right. This week yet another case emerged, of a reservist, now suspended, who kept a list with cellphone numbers and addresses of 17 prominent politicians, who have been alerted. The case led to at least nine other raids across the country Friday.
Von Notz pointed out that Brendan Tarrant, who massacred 51 Muslim worshippers last year at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, had traveled Europe a year earlier and included an ominous line in his manifesto. “These are battle-hardened men who know how to evade surveillance because they are trained in conducting surveillance themselves,” he added. “What we are dealing with is an enemy within.”The air inside the “shoot house” smelled acrid, so many live rounds had been fired.
The general was late for our interview. He had just spent four hours questioning a member of his unit about a party where half a dozen KSK soldiers were reported to have flashed Adolf Hitler salutes. Kreitmayr said that “a big percentage” of his soldiers are eastern Germans, a region where the AfD does disproportionately well. Roughly half the men on the list of KSK members suspected of being far-right extremists are also from the east, he added.In our interview, he said that he could not rule out a significant degree of infiltration from the far-right. “I don’t know if there is a shadow army in Germany,” he said.
Here in the USA we are also confronting our 'enemy within'. It's called the Democrat party and the branches of their little military called BlackLivesMatter, AntifaTerrorists, and KKK
