‘You CANNOT defend your women’ Experts’ chilling theory behind Cologne sex attacks

‘You CANNOT defend your women’ Experts’ chilling theory behind Cologne sex attacks, by Zoie OBrien.

On the anniversary of the shocking assaults which took place on the final night in 2015, a German documentary showed behaviour experts reveal in their opinions, the attacks were planned.

Professor and historian Jörg Baberowski said research of the violence shows it was a pre-arranged mass attack, in a location chosen so the world would pay attention.

The New Year’s attacks flummoxed police who failed to stop women being groped and robbed by men carrying translation notes in their pockets so they could threaten the women in their native tongue.

Professor Baberowski said the message of the predominantly North African perpetrators was “you cannot defend your women”.

In their home countries, he said, “the rapists were killed by their own fathers”. The Berlin’s Humboldt University scholar said the attacks were planned in Germany to show their lack of violence against criminals was being interpreted as a weakness.
