German Chancellor Angela Merkel finances Antifa Supporter with 1 Million for Left-Wing Propaganda

Ed.'s note: Have a look at the recent handiwork of Germany's Angela Merkel. We here at the Grand Chessboard are starting to collect evidence Antifa might even be connected to the Muslim Brotherhood being co-opted at some point. And what hasn't been explored here is how this may be connected to Israel in anyway.

Ever since Donald Trump announced he would designate "Antifa" as a terrorist organization, calls have emerged to pursue the violent far-left mobs and their shadowy backers internationally. Official budget number from the German government show this includes German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

The budget for Angela Merkel’s Chancellery totaled €3.19 billion 2020, of which more than half, €1.82 billion, went to the Chancellor's Office for Media and Culture. The office was created by Merkel’s forerunner Gerhard Schröder (Social Democrat) in 1998 even though the German constitution explicitly delegates cultural affairs to the states and not the federal government. Despite its apparent unconstitutionality, it now serves as a kind of propaganda ministry for the German Chancellor, with its own world-wide public broadcaster Deutsche Welle (German Wave).

Former US ambassador in Berlin Richard Grenell frequently sparred with Deutsche Welle on Twitter over their pro-Iran and anti-US coverage. Deutsche Welle fired back and called Grenell "Donald Trump's agitator in Berlin", a remarkable way for an ally government's network to treat the US ambassador.

Now, a parliamentary query by the conservative AfD party has revealed over €1 million out of Merkel's media/propaganda budget 2019 went to fund Soros-funded NGO "Neue deutsche Medienmacher" (New German Media Makers – NdM), whose avowed goal is to increase "diversity" in German journalism by promoting ethnic minorities (New Germans) in the media and establishing "speech guidelines" for journalists. Merkel's 2020 NdM funding totals €291.000 so far, according to the German federal government.

The New German Media Makers are headed by left-wing Spiegel columnist Ferda Ataman, who has frequently raised hackles among conservatives with seemingly racist remarks. Thus NdM awards an annual negative award for reporting it deems insensitive, called the "Goldene Kartoffel" (Golden Potato). "Kartoffel" (potato) is a racial epithet used by Muslims for ethnic Germans, a euphemism for the Muslim slur "Kaffir". "Kaffir" ranks among the most grievous insults for non-believers in the Islamic world, tantamount to using the "N word" in the USA. In South Africa, you can go to prison for using the "K word". Nonetheless, Ataman and the New German Media Makers continue to use the term and make light of its racially defamatory meaning.

During the onset of the Corona pandemic, Ataman stirred controversy with a tweet implying German doctors are racist and would give preferential treatment to ethnic Germans, causing a storm of outrage in the hard-pressed medical community.

In April, Ataman published an essay on the website of hard-core leftist "Antifascist League" (Bund der Antifaschistinnen – VVN-BdA), avowing her support of violent left-wing Antifa. The Antifascist League VVN-BdA has been classified as extremist by Bavarian secret police and recently lost its tax-deductible status due to its overt political agitation. In her essay, Ataman compared the AfD, the largest opposition party in the Bundestag, to the National Socialists and fascists, announcing her intent "to fight to make Antifa socially acceptable."
