| What are Germany's new deportations rules? |
| 2020-12-12 |
| [DW] Germany's Interior Ministry says a ban on deporting Syrians will not get extended. Critics see this as a violation of international law protecting refugees. Here is a look at the legal backdrop. The ban on deportation, which has been regularly renewed since 2012, is intended to protect Syrians in Germany from being forcibly returned to the ongoing conflict in their home country. That has meant even rejected asylum-seekers, including criminals, must be allowed to remain in Germany. Critics say there is no safe way to return Syrians to their country. Sure there is: airdrop at 500 ft |

| #5 Germans view this as squarely America's fault. There is a significant contingent in Germany that reflexively blames everything bad on America, and credits everything good to themselves. This is not, however, an exclusively German trait. When trailing daughter #2 did an internship in Tokyo, one of her colleagues regularly pulled her aside to blame everything wrong in his life on “you Americans”, completely ignoring Japanese agency — and his own — in the situation. After doing internships in both Japan and Germany, td#2 feels no need to live in those countries ever again, which makes me sad. |

| #2 If we had not made the war much worse there, these people would still be at home That's fucking stupid. These people are economic refugees as much as war refugees of the Syrian/ISIS/Turkey festivities |

| #1 Germans view this as squarely America's fault. If we had not made the war much worse there, these people would still be at home. But we did, and they're in Germany now. They see the US alliance as nothing but an unwanted millstone around their necks, and want no more of the wars we drag them into in Afghanistan or anywhere else. |
