Jürgen Liminski (born April 1, 1950 in Memmingen ; † June 11, 2021 in Bonn ) was a German journalist , publicist and author .

Life

Jürgen Liminski studied journalism and information science at the Catholic University of Navarra in Pamplona / Spain as well as history and political science in Freiburg im Breisgau and Strasbourg . He then worked as an editor at Dernières Nouvelles d'Alsace in Strasbourg, as head of foreign policy at the weekly newspaper Rheinischer Merkur and in the same position at Die Welt .

Until he retired on August 1, 2015, Liminski worked as an editor and presenter of current political programs (e.g. information in the morning ) for Deutschlandfunk . He was a permanent contributor to several newspapers, including the Catholic Sunday newspaper for Germany , the right-wing Catholic weekly newspaper Die Tagespost , the Preussische Allgemeine Zeitung , the Westfalen-Blatt , the Flensburger Tageblatt and the Volksstimme, which appears in Magdeburg . Liminski sometimes also wrote comments for the in Berlin issued new far-right weekly newspaper Junge Freiheit , the South Tyrolean daily newspaper Dolomites and the authors Community Blog Free World from the environment of Beatrix von Storch . His reports and analyzes focused on the situation in the Middle East , political events in France and current issues of economic and social policy in Germany. Liminski occasionally gave lectures to fraternities , such as the Danubia Munich fraternity and the old Breslau fraternity of the Raczeks in Bonn .

Liminski was married, had ten children with his wife Martine, née Le Noxaic (* 1951) and lived in Sankt Augustin - Hangelar . One of his children is Nathanael Liminski , head of the NRW State Chancellery and co-founder of the “Generation Benedikt” network, renamed “ Initiative Pontifex ” in August 2013 . Jürgen Liminski was a member of the Catholic lay organization Opus Dei and chairman of the North Rhine-Westphalia regional association of the Paneuropean Union .

Work and political positions

Liminski was involved in the field of family policy and has authored several books on the subject, including he supported the family network , a family-political, Christian-conservative interest group that is primarily committed against state childcare. Furthermore, since the end of 2005 he has been managing director of the Institute for Demography, General Welfare and Family e. V. , which works together with the Young Christians Offensive as part of the “Family Action Alliance”. He accused both the big and the red-green coalition of "betraying the families". B. through the parental allowance of the "germ cell of the people creeping the livelihood". Stepfamilies and blended families contributed, so Liminski wrote, to the fact that “young people are more inclined to join a gang after their parents split up. Integration into such a 'surrogate family' often involved drug consumption and criminal offenses. ”These young people are more often involved in“ group fights ”.

In 1994 Liminski received the Yes to Life Foundation award .

He vehemently defended the position of Pope Pius XII. on the persecution and extermination of the Jews under National Socialism against Rolf Hochhuth's criticism in the play Der Stellvertreter , which he described as "agitation".

In 2008 he gave the laudation for Ellen Kositza when she was awarded the Gerhard Löwenthal Prize for her book Gender Without End .

Liminski translated the farewell letter from the right-wing intellectual writer Dominique Venner on the Junge Freiheit website .

In January 2014, the editor-in-chief of Deutschlandfunk, Birgit Wentzien, criticized Liminski's affirmative conduct in an interview with Tobias Teuscher , who accused the Greens in the European Parliament of deliberately promoting pedophile activities. Teuscher claimed that a majority of the left, the Greens and the liberals were working on establishing homosexuality as a “dominant culture” in the European Union and that Liminski had insufficiently questioned this stance.
