"We Have Imported Knife Violence" – Wave Of Attacks Shakes Germany Once Again
Another wave of knife attacks has hit Germany, showing that not much has changed despite the many lost lives and Germans maimed in knife attacks.
In fact, the statistics show that these crimes are even getting worse, with 79 knife attacks per day now recorded. A German criminal lawyer warns that Germany has 'imported knife violence,' in response to growing blade crimes.
In the last few days, headlines include Kosovar man arrested after knife attack in Germany injures three, including 12-year-old girl' 'Man stabbed half to death on basketball court,' 'Manhunt continues after Syrian asylum seeker stabs 5 outside student bar in Bielefeld,' and 'Rioter injures police officer with knife.'
However, thousands of such headlines have run in the German press in recent years, with Remix News reporting on many of them. The overwhelming number of perpetrators are foreigners or those with a foreign background, yet despite promises to crack down and enact deportations of migrant criminals, the bloodshed not only continues but appears to be getting worse.

'We have imported knife violence. In other cultures, the knife is a kind of status symbol. This is changing the social climate here in the country,' stated criminal attorney Udo Vetter. He further notes that 'knives have become an everyday companion for many people. And the barrier to using them is low.'
Notably, he warns that due to the rise of knives and knife crimes, it is creating a problem that is expected to only grow exponentially, with more and more people arming themselves with knives out of fear.
'Because if some people deliberately pack a knife as a murder weapon, more and more people will also resort to knives, supposedly to defend themselves,' stated Vetter. 'Young people in particular have knives in their pockets just like their cell phones.'
However, this problem has been warned about nearly every week, including from the German police themselves.
Manuel Ostermann, deputy head of the Federal Police Union, stated that 'the knife as a means of committing a crime always immediately poses a concrete threat to life and limb. Politicians must now take all possible measures to curb this phenomenon.' Ostermann is the same police union head who said that Germany's crime problem is actually an immigration problem during a viral speech last year.

The head of the German Police Union, Rainer Wendt, also spoke out about the knife crime problem, saying: 'The threshold for violence is getting lower and lower. And the fuse is getting shorter. Knives are being drawn even for trivial reasons and seemingly harmless disputes.'
As Remix News previously reported, violent crime reached a record high in Germany last year, with foreigners responsible for nearly half of crimes.
There were 29,014 cases in total involving a crime where a knife was used, of which, 15,741 were knife attacks. Serious and dangerous bodily harm with a knife increased by 10.8 percent in 2024 compared to 2023.

The Alternative for Germany (AfD) is going on the offensive under the new Christian Democrat-led government, with security and immigration still top concerns. Alice Weidel, AfD party co-leader, mocked the new government's 'five-point plan' to fix the immigration crisis, saying that the border is not secured despite promises.
