Telegraph wrote: Rock am Ring festival in Germany evacuated due to 'terror threat'

German police evacuated an open-air weekend "Rock am Ring" concert near the Nuerburgring race track on Friday night due to "concrete leads" of a possible terror threat.

"Due to a terror danger situation, we told the organiser to temporarily stop the concert as a precaution," police in the nearby town of Koblenz said in a statement.

All those attending were asked to leave the concert and head to nearby camping grounds "in a controlled and orderly fashion".

"The organiser of Rock am Ring, working closely with the security authorities, have ended ahead of schedule the festival today," the police said. "The background to this was a concrete warning that made it impossible to rule out a terror threat."

"We cannot provide any further details on the background information," the statement added.

Thousands of festival-goers sang You'll Never Walk Alone as they left the arena.

More than 80,000 music fans had travelled to the Nuernburgring for the festival.

The German band Rammstein was the headline act last night, but had not yet started playing.

The suicide bombing at a pop concert in Manchester on May 26 led to changes in the security planning for the German concert and the number of security officials was increased substantially to 1,200, the police said.

"We take all tips and suspicious incidents extremely seriously and investigate closely," they added.

Last year, the third and final day of the "Rock am Ring" was cancelled after lightning strikes injured 80 people, some seriously.


Now that the terror is finally impacting some bigheads' purses, they suddenly stop being PC :lol:

Politicians make the noises that will get them elected. The sad thing is for every islamophobe who is allergic to sharia and suicide bombers there is at least one other noisier islamophile who wants to celebrate diversity and patronise the poor helpless brown people whom they believe only wear suicide vests because the white people bungled their white man's burden gig by hurting everyone's feelings..

If there were just a few more votes to be had signaling zero tolerance on terrorism then we will see the rhetoric and the policies change.

It's sad what these Muslims are doing to Europe. The leftist political leaders, who believe that allowing Muslims in mass into their countries is good for them politically, should be ashamed of themselves for ruining their countries. Unfortunately for the native Europeans who aren't putting a stop to this by electing the right conservative leaders, they and their families are suffering the consequences, which will become more dire as time goes on.

You do realize that terrorism is real and could kill you, that is me or you could very well end up dead because some jihadi thinks we are evil imperialist pigs.
