Germany: Christian Refugees Persecuted by Muslims "Incidents are deliberately downplayed and even covered up." by Soeren Kern • May 15, 2016 at 5:30 am Thousands of Christians in German refugee shelters are being persecuted by Muslims, sometimes even by their security guards, according to a new report by the NGO Open Doors. "A major obstacle to the survey was that many victims were afraid to participate. ... Their concern was not only on the possible consequences for them personally and for their families in Germany, but also for their relatives who continue to live in the countries of origin." — Open Doors report. "I came to Germany after fleeing my own country in the hope my life would be safer in the face of growing dangers. But in Germany I've been threatened more." — Christian refugee in Germany. "Despite increased reports about this problem by the media, charities, human rights organizations, church leaders and Christian organizations, German authorities and politicians have hardly ever launched an investigation. Instead, we believe that incidents are deliberately downplayed and even covered up. ...

Thousands of Christians in German refugee shelters are being persecuted by Muslims, sometimes even by their security guards, according to a new report, which asserts that in most cases German authorities have done nothing to protect the victims. The study alleges that German authorities and police have deliberately downplayed and even covered up the "taboo issue" of Muslim attacks on Christian refugees, apparently to avoid fueling anti-immigration sentiments. The report, "Religiously Motivated Attacks on Christian Refugees in Germany" (Religiös motivierte Übergriffe gegen christliche Flüchtlinge in Deutschland), was produced by the German branch of Open Doors, a non-governmental organization supporting persecuted Christians, worldwide.

The hidden workforce expanding Elon Musk's Tesla Fremont factory http://www.mercurynews.com/ By Louis Hansen, lhansen@bayareanewsgroup.com POSTED: 05/15/2016 08:18:38 AM PDT \| UPDATED: ABOUT 4 HOURS AGO BY FRANC OIS BERGER FOR THE BAY AREA NEWS GROUP A Bay Area News Group investigation has found overseas contractors are shipping workers from impoverished countries to American factories, where they work long hours for low wages, in apparent violation of immigration and labor laws.Entering the country with questionable visas, the workers are increasingly showing up in the Bay Area where companies can save a bundle on cheap imported labor. Gregor Lesnik was among more than 100 of those workers, quietly here from Eastern Europe, earning as little as $5 an hour to build a new high-tech paint shop at Tesla's auto plant in Fremont -- until he plunged 30 feet to the factory floor. Now, his whistle-blower lawsuit is exposing the hidden workforce expanding Tesla's factory. Click to read THE HIDDEN WORKFORCE EXPANDING TESLA'S FACTORY and watch the video.
