Controversial: Thilo Sarrazin warned 'less educated' immigrants  are making Germany 'dumber'Controversial: Thilo Sarrazin warned ‘less educated’ immigrants are making Germany ‘dumber’

Immigrants are making Germany ‘dumber’, according to a board member of the country’s central bank.

Thilo Sarrazin claimed the ‘limited education’ of immigrants – coupled with their high birth rate – meant Germans ‘are becoming dumber in a simple way’.

He said: ‘There’s a difference in the reproduction of population groups with varying intelligence.’

It is not the first time the 65-year-old member of the Bundesbank has caused controversy since he joined last year.

In October he described Muslim children as ‘underclass’ citizens.

‘I don’t have to accept someone who lives off a state they reject, doesn’t properly take care of the education of his children-and keeps producing more little girls in headscarves,’ Mr Sarrazin said.

‘That goes for 70 percent of the Turkish and 90 percent of the Arabic population of Berlin.’ He added that they were not fit for much other than ‘fruit and vegetable selling’.

In his latest speech this week he said there were ‘ample statistics’ proving he was correct about German intelligence.

He went on to say that in particular immigrants from ‘Turkey, the Middle East and Africa’ were less educated.

Because immigrants tend to have more children than Germans – who have the lowest birth rate in Europe – this caused ‘a different propagation of population groups with different intelligence because parents pass their intelligence on to their children’.

Mr Sarrazin, who was previously Germany’s finance minister, has not yet apologised. It is thought his position at the Bundesbank may now be untenable.

A spokesman for a Muslim group in Berlin said: ‘He is a tired old white Christian male full of prejudice and few ideas.’

But among conservatives in Germany his comments have struck a chord.

They have voiced concern that the country’s three million Turks tend to live in their own communities, socialise among each other and have little in common with their German neighbours.

  1. Muslims both the conquered and the Arab conquering type inbreed with their cousins. This has an effect on the intelligence. The brain of the inbreeders is somewhat smaller for the size of the body than is the case for outbreeders. This condition is called microencepahlisation. This does damp down intelligence to a degree that is noticable. Going to school one notices this. The muslims are never that bright. There may be the odd one but the rest are just not up to the job. Even as teenager I was struck by it and could not put my finger on it until I started to learn about the dangers of inbreeding. It is the price you pay for being conquered by the Arab. Europe live and learn. The man is right and speaks the truth.

  2. Morocco actually has a lower IQ then some African countries. I know blacks of all sorts have produced more art and literature in the last 200 years then Arabs have. That would make the Arabs one of the first ethnic groups that are actually de-evolving, the Arabs are getting dumber, while the African is slowly getting smarter via an increase of the genepool and natural selection in an urban enviroment.
