Abdel-Samad attacks Ferda Ataman: “Cartel of privileged migrant children”


Berlin - The political scientist and publicist Hamed Abdel-Samad has sharply criticized the planned appointment of Ferda Ataman as the federal anti-discrimination officer. She belongs to a “cartel of privileged migrant children who make a career at the expense of the German guilt complex and acquire funding”. The decision was "a clear violation of your neutrality and the neutrality of the state," he wrote in an open letter to Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD). "Mrs. Ataman is very hostile to criticism of Islam and considers it racism." She also rejects the term "Islamism" and considers a discussion about clan crime to be "discriminatory".

Furthermore, they ignore "the discrimination within migrant groups, because for them only white men can be racists," complained Abdel-Samad. She even spoke out in favor of excluding Islam critics like himself or Necla Kelek from the discourse. Ataman accuses that she polarizes instead of engaging in debate. "She wants to set up a tribunal instead of looking for ways to really fight racism," he said, referring to Ataman.

She cannot fight racism in the country "because she works with a racist world view that says that whites can only be perpetrators and blacks and browns can only be victims". In doing so, she alienates many decent white people who finance most anti-racism projects with their tax money and whose commitment is needed in the fight against racism. At the same time, they cover "many racists and Islamists with a migration background who discriminate not only against whites but also against migrants," he continued.

Migrants also criticize Ataman
The decision in favor of Ataman caused a lack of understanding in large parts of the public. In the past, she repeatedly referred to Germans as "potatoes". She accused former interior minister Horst Seehofer (CSU) of using the term “home” as having a racist worldview.

There was also criticism from migrant circles. The accusation: While she smells racism and discrimination everywhere in the German majority society, she ignores phenomena such as Islamism, migrant ultra-nationalism and child marriages.
