#17  I think they see The Titanic as a heist opportunity, and think they have a lifeboat reserved.

Or have a ticket in that movie 2012.

#16  Blossom Unains5562---I was just being polite, but your description is more to the mark. Socialist realism and all that, heh.

#15  We're no better here. As a society we can't call Islamaniacs out for what they are. We are all going to politely die if we don't get the guts to speak up about the basics of behavior, and what ideologies tend to adhere to those basics and which ones don't.

#14  Merkel baffles me. The fact that she hasn't been tossed on her ear baffles me even more. I was married to a German for a decade and I know they are filled with guilt but this is suicidal levels that will lead to the end of Germany or another genocide as the crazy nationalists gain control in response to the suicide.

Its insane.

#10  Seems elections are no longer about the populace choosing their leaders, but rather the other way around. Now, it's how the leaders choose a new populace.

#9  "The problem with Germany...is it is full of Germans. We shall instate Turkman Nocta."

"Turkman Nocta?"

"Yes. Turkish Night. We shall pay to bring in a rape culture who will control the night. If we cannot chase them out...we will breed them out."

#8  One wonders. In her youth Merkel joined the German Democratic Republic's Free German Youth (FDJ). Following university, at the Academy of Sciences she was a member of the FDJ district board and secretary for "Agitprop." Merkel herself has claimed she was their Secretary for Culture. Following the unification of Germany, and through a series of fortuitous events she acheived her present status. Like I say, one wonders.

#7  Refuse Muslims and expel those who are already in your midst, or perish. That is your choice.

#6  I thought 1939-45 taught a good number of Germans to ditch the blind obedience to orders by higher authorities trait. She better get a clue before someone calls Claus von Stauffenberg to the courtesy phone.

#5  Germany is like Germany because it is filled with Germans, or more precisely, people with German culture.

But the scenery, trains, and beer are wonderful.

#4  I just had a thought: maybe Merkel is a secret national socialist --- because importing Muslims is, IMO, the surest way to restore German sentiment for the Reich?

#3  Germany is like Germany because it is filled with Germans, or more precisely, people with German culture.

The Arab world is a mess because it is filled with Arabs, again more precisely, people with Arab culture.

In the best case, adding more Arab culture will make Germany more like the Arab world, an outcome that, to my narrow prejudiced mind, hardly seems desirable.

In the worst case, the two incompatible cultures will react exothermically and give you all the things you see in the news and more This seems even less desirable. I am puzzled why the Germans would do this.
