A far-left “anti-racist” vigil in the German town of Bingen—has been left empty-handed after the “hate crime” it was supposed to be protesting against turned out to have been committed by a “refugee.”

The reds—including the Socialist Party of Germany (SPD) Prime Minister of the Rhineland-Palatinate state, all local churches, and the Confederation of German Trade Unions—called out the vigil after swastikas were found scrawled on the walls of a local invader center.

A small fire had also been started in a woodpile in the building’s basement.

The controlled German media immediately ran banner headlines announcing a “neo-Nazi hate crime” and prominently running images of the swastikas, along with the minor fire damage caused in the basement.

The Handelsblatt, for example, rand a headline reading “Police investigate right wing motive for arson” and this was repeated ad infiniutm by other news outlets.

The establishment parties also quickly got in on the act. SPD state Prime Minister Malu Dreyer rushed to the scene along with Integration Minister Irene Alt (from the Green Party), and both expressed their shock at the swastikas.

“This is not only shocking, this is really too shameful. We do not want in this country,” Dreyer said, before posting on Facebook that “Hatred of foreigners and violence is abominable,” and that she stands for a “democratic, tolerant, and open society.”

The leader of Angela Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party in Rhineland-Palatinate issued a statement saying that the “attack” in Bingen “leaves me sad and upset. It must be clear that every person can claim protection and safety in Germany.”

Then, all the local churches, representatives of all the parties on the town council, and the Confederation of German Trade Unions (Deutscher Gewerkschaftsbund, DGB) announced that they would be holding a vigil on Sunday April 10 in protest against the “hate crime.”

However, only a few hours before the vigil was supposed to kick off, police in Bingen announced that they had made an arrest—of one of the nonwhite invader refugees in the center.

The 26-year-old nonwhite, who claims to be a “Syrian,” had been living at the center for more than six months.

He said he had set the fire and painted the swastikas on the walls because he was “angry at the “crowded living conditions in the property” and his “lack of future prospects.”

His excuses did not help and he was arrested for aggravated arson and hauled off to jail.
