Mariana Harder-Kühnel, April 15, 2024, Abortion

AfD Kompakt, April 15, 2024. 

Federal Family Minister Lisa Paus already made clear, before the formation of this Commission, that her political goal is general impunity for aborted pregnancies. Even from its name, it may be concluded that for this Ampel government it has at no time been about an unbiased “Whether”, but only about the “How” of taking down the hurdles for a termination of pregnancy. Consequently, the thereby constituted working groups were extensively filled with women who themselves in the past either had attracted attention with politically approved positions, or had been active for corresponding associations like “Pro Familia” or the “Deustchen Juristinnenbund”. 

In the Commission report, the focus is one-sidedly shifted from defense of unborn life to the alleged self-determination rights of women. The hereto given jurisprudence of the Federal Constitutional Court is thereby fully disregarded, and a liberalization of abortion law frankly presented as constitutionally imperative [verfassungsrechtlich geboten]. How the resulting defenselessness of unborn children to the end of the 22nd week of pregnancy is reconcilable with their human dignity guaranteed by the Basic Law, the report nevertheless does not explain. 

The Ampel undertakes the public attempt to annul the defense of unborn life in favor of the right to abortion. The recommendations of its Commission merely serve as a first step of a long-term project to establish abortion as a natural “human right”. This hides the serious danger that the priority [Stellenwert] of human life in social consciousness will be generally degraded. This under all circumstances must be prevented.

Mariana Harder-Kühnel, March 20, 2024, Gender Speech

AfD Kompakt, March 20, 2024. 

Speech as a fundamental pillar of our society needs to be free of ideological ballast. The decision against the gender speech underlines Bavaria’s acknowledgement of these values. The AfD expressly welcomes this step, since it fulfills our demand of many years for a renunciation of a kind of language spoliation. 

We nevertheless may not stop here. The ruling in Bavaria needs to serve as a model which conforms to that of other Federal States. For that, the AfD is committed to that the clarity and comprehensibility of the German language are placed above ideological experiments. We demand of the Federal government to follow the Bavarian example and, in common with the other Federal States, to issue a nationwide, State-inclusive ban of gender speech. 

The AfD stands for a policy which places at mid-point the citizen and the conservation of our cultural identity. Bavaria’s decision is a step in the right direction, yet may be only the beginning.

Mariana Harder-Kühnel, November 16, 2023, Islamization

German Bundestag, Plenarprotokoll 20/137, pp. 17298-17299. 

Right honorable Frau President. Right honorable ladies and gentlemen. 

Certainly in the last days has it become clear: The alleged conspiracy theory of an increasing Islamization of Germany is in fact a terrifying reality. 

            Lamya Kaddor (Greens): Such nonsense! 

The pictures of pro-Hamas demonstrations on German streets allow no other explanation: A situation over which you are now overheated, yet a situation which you have brought about. 

These demonstrations are only the current high point of a creeping Islamization of Germany which is expressed in many facets: So-called honor killings, forced marriages, yet which is also manifested in the symbolic occupation in day-cares and elementary schools by means of wearing the children’s head scarf, and in polygamy which unfortunately becomes ever more prevalent. All of this is the result of our own weakness, of a woke culture, which hates all that is one’s own and our cultural identity as well as our tradition. And this self-hate makes one susceptible: To welcome culture and to mass migration, 

            Lamya Kaddor (Greens): Apparently you really need to hate yourself.

to children’s head scarves and to polygamy. It becomes high time to esteem one’s own, instead of sacrificing it to the foreigners. Otherwise, Germany becomes a caliphate. And we want no caliphate. We want a Germany that remains German, dear friends. 

Let us thus begin with the little ones. Let us ban the head scarf for children under 14 years in schools and day-cares. Since this head scarf for little girls is nothing other than a continual bodily and psychic disciplining. Free running, playing, swimming, etc., with it is scarcely possible. The writer Fatma Bläser, who as a child was herself forced to wear a head scarf, sees therein an “endangerment of children’s well-being”. The head scarf may become for young girls a “second skin” by which they are robbed of their freedom and childhood. It suppresses the children of today and makes them the suppressed women of tomorrow – and that may no longer be. 

And no, the children’s head scarf has nothing to do with religious freedom, since there is in Islam no religious precept for children to wear it. Until a few years ago, it was fully unusual in Islamic countries. 

The state of law is not allowed to tolerate it when little girls are thereby abused for transporting Islamist messages into our kindergartens and schools. For it is nothing other than political child abuse, what is happening here. This political child abuse needs to be forbidden; since it leads to parallel societies, it leads to the dis-integration of young girls and to the suppression of women. Such power demonstrations of political Islam have nothing to lose in Germany. 

These days, this becomes more clear than ever. The French and Austrians have long since recognized this and forbidden the head scarf in schools – in France besides, with the votes of the socialists. Let us thus defend young girls from the head scarf, and let us defend Germany from parallel societies! 

Polygamous marriages are also an expression of these parallel societies and they lead to a parallel justice. Where that leads to is shown in the many so-called honor killings. A stop to them must  be ordered. To them must be opposed law and order, and in fact our law and our order. Here, the statistical registration of polygamous marriages in Germany is required. Here, a general ban on religious early marriage is required. Here, polygamous marriages concluded in foreign countries need to be annulled. Here are required rigorous penalties for violations against the ban on bigamous marriage. 

Children’s head scarves and polygamy do not go in our country. Germany may no longer decay into a multicultural test laboratory; since it is not compatible with these imported conflicts. There must finally again 

            Vice-president Yvonne Magwas: Please come to a conclusion.

be recollected its culture and tradition. Germany must finally again be German. 

Many thanks.

Mariana Harder-Kühnel, August 31, 2022, Baerbock and Peace

AfD Kompakt, August 31, 2022.

Since the beginning of the conflict, Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock practices a refusal to work. Instead of committing herself as German chief diplomat to bringing the warring parties to the negotiations table, it is she herself with her war rhetoric who pours ever more oil on an already blazing fire. Heedless of the negative consequences for the people, the Foreign Minister escalates ever further, instead of committing herself to peace negotiations which appropriately consider the security interests of all participants. Only in this way can the senseless bloodshed be ended as quickly as possible.  

We of the AfD demand of not only Minister Baerbock but of the entire Federal government to at last verbally disarm and strive for peace in the Ukraine. Germany should proceed with a good example and for a start lift the economic sanctions against Russia which primarily harm our own citizens.

Mariana Harder-Kühnel, August 2, 2022, Kindergeld

AfD Kompakt, August 2, 2022.

The European High Court [EuGH]’s decision increases the pressure on our social state and on those who must by their work generate the billions in tax money which here will be distributed on a grand scale. The EuGH no longer evaluates Kindergeld [child allowance] as a social benefit, since according to the opinion of the judges it does not serve for the guaranteeing of the living subsistence but for the compensation of the family costs [Ausgleich von Familienlastung]. The Court thereby again increases the incentive for abuse by migrants from southeast Europe and additional poor regions of the EU.

For comparison: The Kindergeld claim for three children for three months runs to some 2,000 euros in Germany. With a monthly average wage in Bulgaria of 800 euros, the income of German Kindergeld is more than lucrative. It is nevertheless the German taxpayers who finance the social state and not it happens Bulgarians seeking work. The basic idea of the freedom of movement in the EU is based on the employment of workers in other EU member states. Clearly not meant by that is the claim to more attractive social benefits. The Ampel is now obliged to find a sound legal solution so as to prevent further social tourism to Germany.

Mariana Harder-Kühnel, June 21, 2022, Pension, Tax and Social Policies

AfD Kompakt, June 21, 2022.

The financial emergency appearing in the pension account comes as no surprise. The demographic development is strongly counter-productive and provides for that the income of ever fewer contribution payers needs to be distributed to ever more benefits recipients.

The Federal government intensifies this problem still further by its policy. Instead of relieving families in particular and thereby simply counteracting the demographic change by improving the financial situation of families, the tax burden, by means of among others climate duties, drastically increases.

Beyond that, the Ampel’s naturalization [Einbürgerungs] and migration policy breaks down the entire social system. Who adds ever more benefits recipients to not only the pension but also for example the statutory sickness account, who themselves pay not a cent into these, he deconstructs the social system of an entire state, especially against the background of the known numbers and facts, assuredly.

Germany needs finally a politics conscious of its responsibility, which makes our country secure for the future and dedicates itself to the real concerns and needs of the people!

Mariana Harder-Kühnel, November 29, 2021, Family Ministry

AfD Kompakt, November 29, 2021.

[Anne] Spiegel has already done desolate work in Rheinland-Pfalz. Since 2016, the Minister bore responsibility in the Family as well as in the Environment Ministry. Here, she was primarily connected with failures resulting from the Ahr flooding.

Just hours before the catastrophe, her Ministry gave out fully false press announcements. Though the situation might be “tense”, no “extreme flooding” threatened. At that point in time, the scale of the approaching catastrophe was long since known; EFAS, the European flood warning authority, had in good time declared a warning. Instead of passing this along to the population so as to make it possible for people to convey goods and chattel to safety, Spiegel’s  Ministry played down the danger. A total of 134 people fell victim to the flooding. The investigating committee should now clarify Spiegel’s responsibility.

To arrive at the idea, at this point in time, to happen to convey to Spiegel responsibility for a Federal ministry is irresponsible. It would be urgently necessary to await the result of the investigating committee. There is already in Rheinland-Pfalz an abundance of irregularities; as for example in regards the appointment to positions or the commissioning of outside consultants. She did not understand her office as Family and Environment Minister as an opportunity to support our families but to drive forward the Greens’ migration policy. The Greens would not have been able to come upon a worse choice of personnel. With a regard to all the other Green ministries, a trend is here nevertheless pursued which will do maximum harm to our country.

Mariana Harder-Kühnel, October 12, 2021, Child Marriage in Germany

AfD Kompakt, October 12, 2021.

Presently in Germany are already known to be more than 800 child marriages. The hidden number may lie far above that. The state undertakes practically nothing to obviate this problem. Ineffective laws cannot defend girls and children who, below the radar of the authorities, are forced to marry. Like all the problems arising from uncontrolled migration, this also is extensively swept under the rug.

“Save the Children” in its current survey shows the consequences of this development, from which not even German policy may longer stand aloof.

In Germany, there is permitted no child marriage. The protection of the children must have the highest priority. Perpetrators who have themselves married to children, as well as any who illegally contract these marriages, must be punished with the full harshness of the law and to that pertains immediate expulsion from our country.

Mariana Harder-Kühnel, June 11, 2021, Women’s Quotas

German Bundestag, Plenarprotokoll 19/234, pp. 30302-30303.

Right honorable Frau President. Right honorable ladies and gentlemen.

The Bundestag election casts its shadow. In one of the last draft laws of this legislative period shall be prescribed to the boards of directors of businesses how they in the future need be composed.

Ulli Nissen (SPD): And that is good, too!

            Leni Breymaier (SPD): You do not fix it!

If the board of directors of a firm listed on the exchange consists of more than three members, at least one of them must be a woman. The Groko [grand coalition] thereby not only shamelessly interferes anew in the business freedom, but again paves the way in the direction of socialism. The decisive criterion, qualification, no longer in the future plays a role. Solely the sex decides the composition of business leadership. With such an interference, a strengthening of Germany as a business venue is scarcely to be expected.

That the Union in that regard is to be reckoned an accomplice is also no surprise. You thereby fraternize with your future coalition partners; for according to the election program, the Greens have committed themselves to the goal of the establishment of a feminist government.

Once again is it clear: He who votes black, he receives green. He who on the contrary wants freedom instead of paternalism, he should vote blue, ladies and gentlemen.

Women’s quotas are a means of coercion. They most deeply interfere in the constitutionally guaranteed freedom of property [Eigentum] in Article 14, in the freedom of occupation [Beruf] in Article 12, as well as in the equality of man and woman in Article 3, paragraph 2, line 2, of the Basic Law. Notable constitutional lawyers therefore reject them. It is simply not constitutionally justified to obligate businesses, in areas in which there are no sufficiently qualified women, to hire unsuitable personnel.

One sees that the entire debate over women’s quotas causes only chaos and contradiction. And it has been coordinated for the abolition of fundamental legal principles like freedom of contract and private autonomy in favor of a feminist planned economy; for here it is a question of nothing other. Quotas regulations and sanctions for those not in compliance are not reconcilable with the principles of the market economy and a free society.

Actually here the FDP also needs to remonstrate with what has shifted business freedom into reverse. Yet what you, dear Free Democrats, demand in your motion, that lets the jaw drop. You propose a ban on works meetings after 4 pm. You strive for more sexual variety at leadership levels and you fantasize of diversity as a success factor. That is an accommodation to the cultural Marxist Zeitgeist.

That women can be brought into levels of leadership, quite without coercion, quite without ultra-feminism, quite without genderism, is besides shown by the allegedly oh-so reactionary-conservative, oh-so arch-Catholic Poles. There, mothers and housewives are not degraded to second-class people by a leftist mainstream. There will not be propagandized by an intrusive state which roles man and woman have to play in family and vocation. The result: In Poland, the portion of women in leadership positions is at 44 percent, as opposed to colorful, diverse Germany at only 28 percent. If you thus want to bring as many women as possible into management positions, then please take remedial instruction in women’s policy from our eastern neighbor.

But in no case, as in the submitted, should be set up means of coercion. Women’s quotas are such a means. Women’s quotas produce quota women. Believe me: No woman wants to be characterized as a mere quota woman. We of the AfD say quite clearly: Strong women require no quotas.

            Josephine Ortleb (SPD): Strong women require nothing from the AfD!

Many thanks.
