No. A group of five migrants from Syria touched children, girls and women (9 known cases) at an outdoor swimming pool in Germany. I guess it exist hundreds of thousands of such swimming pools in Germany. And in this swimming pool had happend what everywhere else in Germany also had happened: Some people informed a lifeguard and the security catched the men and called the police who arrested them. Independent from any court decision they got a lifetime ban from the swimming pool. In this state ot Germany it got only 4 bannings this year (no lifetime bannings as far as I heard) - on reason of other delicts which had nothing to do with sex.
What had happened with this migransts also had happend in case German men had sexually harassed anyone.
But in case of this Syrians who had done so will forever also exist the shame that they have abused our trust and our will to help threatened people. They brought shame over all Syrians and also shame over all Muslims. This will bring for sure also additionally bad consquences for them.
By the way. Today in the morning I read a story from a Pole who was "happy" after he lived 5 years in the evil town Berlin to go back to Poland. He said Germany failed and spoke in worst words about Germany - by using also some critics which we Germans sometime use in context of our country. But when I analyzed what he really said then he had only one point of real critics - except that all Germans anway always only making everything wrong and Poles always only make everything right: In some institutions in Germany - who liked to see him and not only to get e-mails from an unknonw person - no one was able or did not like to speak English with him. This critics shows that he got a lot of money from the social system in Germany. And the other critics had been that to buy a house in Germany and in Poland costs nearly the same - so why to live in Germany? Or with other words: He came to Germany, never learned German, was supported from our social system, made a lot of money here in the last five years and buys a house in Poland now with this money and a Polish credit - which he got in 5-10 minutes on the phone in Poland (in Germany he had got no credit for to buy a house here - specially not in 5-10 minutes on a phone).

The only thing I am fascinated in such a context is Meister Eckhart - a German theologist from the Middle Ages with an unbelievable complex theology which is easily able to be misunderstood because it needs a lot of knowledge and intelligence to understand the complexity of his theology in the right way. Why I am fascinated? Because a kind of sum of his very complex theology is a very simple sentence:
Wäre das Wort ›Danke‹ das einzige Gebet, das du je sprichst, so würde es genügen.
Meister Eckhart (1260-1327)
If the word “thank you” were the only prayer you ever said, it would suffice.
And what say the Bremen Town Musicians - the old donkey, the old dog, the old cat and the old rooster?
„Undank ist der Welt Lohn!“ = “Ingratitude is the world's reward!”
