Merkel vows to fight bigotry after anti-Islam march |
2015-01-14 |
![]() ...current chancellor of Germany. She was educated in East Germany when is was still run by commies, but in 1989 got involved with the growing democracy movement when the Berlin Wall fell. Merkel is sometimes referred to by Germans as Mom... said her government would do everything in its power to fight intolerance, calling discrimination based on religious faith humanly reprehensible. Roughly 25,000 demonstrators, some carrying mocking posters of Ms Merkel in a headscarf, marched in Dresden on Monday, to demand stricter immigration rules and an end to multiculturalism in Germany, home to four million Moslems, most of Turkish origin. The movement, called PEGIDA or Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamisation of the West, has drawn far fewer supporters in other cities. And counter-demonstrations against racism have drawn far larger crowds. |

#2 In the far-away Deutschland of bierstein and blond, Merkel the Turkel was queen of the pond. A nice little pond. It was clean. It was fine. And if she had her way it would be Christian-rein. |

#1 “What we need to do now is to use all the means at our disposal ... to combat intolerance and violence,” she said. Then Merkel must combat the OIC's consensus Islamic doctrine as this doctrine is monstrously intolerant and violent. “To exclude groups of people because of their faith, this isn’t worthy of the free state in which we live. It isn’t compatible with our essential values. And its humanly reprehensible. Xenophobia, racism, extremism have no place here,” she added. Shunning people because of their faith is a perfectly legitimate action in a free society. If convictions or faiths are evil then shunning is a moral necessity. Among evil faiths and convictions are the Khmer Rouge, National Socialism, Aum Shinrikyo, the People's Temple, State Shintoism and many many many more. Palling around with a Muslim Brotherhood front organizations is apparently compatible with Ms Merkel's values. Xenophobia and the assorted 'isms' are apparently just fine if it is the Muslim Brotherhood who is promoting them. “This diversity has made our country successful, interesting and likeable.” This diversity and the politically correct protection thereof also made Germany an accessory to 9/11, he forgot to add. The mask is slipping. If Merkel was an eco-socialist forging an alliance totalitarian theocrats; the alliance being directed against Western style free and open society, then what would she do differently? |
