#1 Let's see if I have this straight:
1) She invites a bunch of terrorists into the country amongst a bunch of refugees because she wants to stand by 'European values'.

2) She hands an anti-Erdogan comedian over to the wolves even though it's against European values.

Which suggests she regrets decision #1, is forced to stem the flow to mitigate the damage by working with Erdogan, and she has to violate 'European values' to do it.

All this could have been avoided by listening to a bunch of ~~realists'~~ racists' opinion that this was stupid to begin with.

Maybe next time.

#2 Merkel's actions make sense if one accepts the hypothesis that she's returned to her unorthodox and theocratic communist roots and now intends to inflict maximal damage on the West.

The Merkel-Erdogan deal btw does nothing to stem the flow. 'Refugees' selected by Erdogan will be airlifted from Turkey to Germany directly, rendering ineffective the closed borders of Macedonia et al.

#3 I think we need to start defining what European values are. I'd always thought they were more or less the same as Anglo-American values but clearly they are not.

#5 Actually she is quite perceptive and plans well for her future. By doing the aforementioned actions, she is planning to get eaten by the crocodile last.

#6 Well don't forget the entertainment value. The court will have to call some goats as witnesses.
