German Priest Wears Islamic Headscarf in Protest Against Anti-Immigration Party

A German priest reacted to AfD leader Alice Weidel’s comments about the Islamic veil by wearing one during the Pentecostal sermon.

Weidel courted controversy after a speech in parliament during which she stated, “I can tell you that burqas, headscarf girls and men armed with knives living on welfare, will not assure our prosperity nor our economical growth and even less our welfare state.”

The priest of Our-Lady of Aalen, Wolfgang Sedlmeier, responded by wearing an Islamic hijab during his sermon in protest against Weidel’s “offensive and condescending remarks”.

“Anyone who discriminates against people who follow their faith and choose to cover their heads is going against human dignity and the Pentecostal’s spirit,” claimed Sedlmeier.

The anti-mass immigration AfD swept into parliament in September last year directly as a result of Angela Merkel’s dreadful handling of the migrant crisis, after she opened up the borders to around 2 million predominantly Muslim migrants from 2015 onwards.

This has caused major problems in Germany society, including in schools where ISIS beheading videos are spreading like wildfire and Christian students and teachers are being bullied and attacked.
