| #13 Ten years ago there was a French minister who dared to say the unthinkable: that immigrants had to adopt leave behind their fashions like genital mutilation, adopt French ones and integrate. And that those who didn't want integrate had to go out. The funny thing is that the politically uncorrect minister was Black and born a Togolese. |

| #12 Shrieking aside, Beckstein's position as laid out by TGA is remarkably straightforward. The essence of it appears to be, "Live by the rules we have chosen for ourselves or you won't be allowed to partake of this society". |

| #11 Dave D. I'd suggest modifying your statement to say that SOME Europeans are way out front. Note that this is the same Germany that won't deport that guy to Spain. I think that Tom Tancredo would probably get along with Herr Beckstein just fine, don't you? |

| #10 As one of my D.I.'s would say"Beckstien has his sh#t together"!Is't Reisling one of the wines that the ancients use to water down and drink with breakfast? |

| #8 Re TGA's comment #3, I can just imagine the shrieking and caterwauling if a U.S. Attorney General proposed those steps as U.S. policy-- the screams from the Donks would be deafening. As much as we like to bitch and gripe about the Europeans, I think they're WAY out ahead of us on some things... |

| #7 Some Franconian wines (Beckstein hails from Franconia) are made of Riesling... |

| #6 The Left hates him with a passion... He's even more popular in Bavaria than Stoiber... Explains a lot huh? |

| #5 TGA: That's very encouraging. I an can only imagine the wailing that will occur if Beckstein becomes Interior Minister. |

| #3 Well it's Bavaria's Interior Minister Beckstein who's doing the hard work. Things he wants to do: 1) Strict control of what's going on in the mosques and koran schools. 2) Deport any Muslim who is propagating things incompatible with the German Basic Law. For example putting the Sharia above the Basic Law, threatening people who want to leave Islam. Radical Islamists should lose obtained German citizenship much easier. (Note that there is no "German birth right", a fact which can be helpful in these cases). 3) Muslims entering Germany to be denied entry to Germany if they have been propagating things mentioned above, have demonstrated for the annihilation of Israel, America etc. Beckstein calls for an international database of islamists to be checked by border officials. Note that Beckstein is set to become the next German Interior Minister although it's possible that if Stoiber joins the cabinet Beckstein would become Bavaria's Prime Minister. As for the "guidance"... well... let's say "friendly advice" along with some good glasses of Franconian wine... |

| #2 Ok, so Bavaria is on the ball with booting out the Islamists. What's happening up north? |

| #1 Where is the wailing and caterwauling that this violates international law, is against the EU human rights charter, laws and treatys, etceteras to infinity. Oh I forgot it's not the UK or the US that has done it. On top of that it's the right thing. Stuff that in your TRANZI pipe and blow. |
