France is already as good as lost….

First of all:

The video published on Facebook is NOT a current recording from March 1st, 2016. This is a compilation of around 20 videos from all over the world. And this from the last few years!

Probably from Sweden and the year 2013 - Erik Björkmann is attacked on the street and seriously injured.
He was a member of the Sverigedemokraterna (Sweden Democrats), a right-wing populist party in Sweden founded in 1988. He was beaten up by unknown people in Uppsala on August 22, 2013 and died some time later in his apartment (he had initially been treated as an inpatient). Some Swedish newspaper reports mentioned unknown people, others said it was an African. The Swedish police investigation has not been able to determine what exactly is true. It cannot be verified whether the video is part of the story because Björkman is said to have gotten into a taxi, but it is not clear from the video that the victim goes into a side street.

However, this video has no current connection to Germany, nor did this attack take place in Germany. According to Haber7, this attack took place on October 15, 2013 in the Bebek district of Istanbul.
