“Terrorism, the calculated use of violence to create a general climate of fear in a population and thereby to bring about a particular political objective”
Ilaria Salis, an Italian MEP for the Green and Left Alliance won her mandate while sitting in a Hungarian prison. After being charged with multiple counts of attempted battery causing life-threatening bodily harm committed “in the framework of a criminal organisation”
It is suspected that in February 2023, Ilaria Salis along with 14 other co-conspirators as members of Hammerbande, a violent “anti-fascist” gang that uses melee and chemical agents to attack people it deems political enemies, arrived in Budapest in a premeditated manner in order to incite fear through violent methods in whom they thought wanted to commemorate soldiers involved in the defence of Hungary in the Second World War.
The majority of the anti-fascist terrorists who carried out the attacks in Budapest two years ago were German (but there were also Italians, an Albanian and a Syrian) They were all allegedly part of, the Hammerbande “Hammer Gang” terrorist group, which was founded in Leipzig in 2015, and even by communist standards their tactics were brutal.
Here are a few examples of their terrorism, all credit to the Austrian Heimatkurier portal.


On July 4, 2016, a local organizer of the then-operating PEGIDA (Patriotische Europäer gegen die Islamisierung des Abendlandes, or Patriots Against the Islamization of the West) in Leipzig was beaten with hammers in front of his apartment.
On October 30, 2018, an activist from the Junge Nationalisten organization in Wurzen was so badly beaten that his spine was broken in several places, his kneecap was broken, and he suffered 14 other injuries. He was taken to the hospital by ambulance in a life-threatening condition.
On January 7, 2019, Frank Magnitz, the state leader of the AfD in Bremen and the party’s representative in the Bundestag, was attacked in the city center of Bremen by cowardly antifa, who deliberately hit him on the head with batons. They wanted to kill him, but fortunately for the politician, a worker passing by distracted the terrorists. Magnitz was also hospitalized with life-threatening injuries.
On January 18, 2019, about twenty people were ambushed at a train station in Dessau-Rosslau as they were heading to an event commemorating the four waves of British and American bombings between February 13 and 15, 1945, in which some 200,000 innocent civilians were burned alive with phosphorus bombs. The beatings left one man with a brain hemorrhage, a broken knee and ankle, and another with a staple in his face.
On February 15, 2020, three men and a 15-year-old boy were also attacked by Antifa at the train station in Wurzen, also coming from an event commemorating the victims of the Dresden bombing, and several others were seriously injured.
On July 11, 2020, Antifa members posing as parcel delivery-drivers in Dresden beat a right-wing man to death with hammers.
On March 11, 2021, terrorists posing as police officers rang the doorbell of the chairman of the Junge Nationalisten organization, Paul Rzehaczek. The young man, a father of three, who answered the door was tied up and his ankles were broken with hammers so that he would never be able to work as a driving instructor again. He was also sprayed with tear gas and doused with chlorine as he left.
On May 28, 2021, a right-wing football fan was attacked in Erfurt with the same trick. He was tied up, his legs were broken, and he was doused with chlorine, just like his wife, who was in her third trimester.
On January 12, 2023, two members of the small right-wing party Neue Stärke, or New Strength, were brutally attacked in Erfurt. This time, the terrorists also used an axe, one of the victims suffered a severe skull fracture.
In addition, they broke into the homes of right-wing people in their absence on several occasions, destroying them and making them uninhabitable.
The real question is, how could they pull this off?

“The question arises as to how the terrorists knew the addresses of their victims. Well, the criminals were integrated into the German state organization. For example, an employee of the Leipzig city hall, Henry Aulich, had access to a lot of personal data as a legal administrator, and since he himself was a member of the terrorist gang, he misused it. Aulich was also in contact with a communist member of the Saxony state parliament, Juliane Nagel. But the SPD Interior Minister of the recently defeated German government, Nancy Faeser, also openly sympathized with antifa, so she can be classified as a psychic accessory to crime.”
Ilaria Salis was released from custody last May with a bail of 16 million forints (about €40.000), placed under criminal supervision and after her election the coercive measures against her were lifted. Ilaria Salis and the left-wing press, criticized Hungarian prison conditions and authorities, they portray her as a victim, deny the evidence and of her case she states:
“I know that I am on the right side of history and I do not want to be convicted for my political views.“
This is not someone who wants discussion. Her stance is clear: she is not a democratic actor. She should not have immunity and should face the full force of Hungarian law. The EU has justified and endorsed her alleged crimes by giving her immunity; we cannot stand for this!
