Refugee flood has Munich nervous as it awaits Oktoberfest crowds
DPA International ^ | Se3ptember 13th, 2015 | Unattributed

Munich (dpa) - A week before Munich's Oktoberfest begins, authorities are expressing concern about how the city will cope with the event's expected 6 million visitors, on top of the thousands of refugees currently pouring into the Bavarian capital every day.

Bavarian Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann called for an increased deployment of federal police to assist local officers.

"If, during the evenings and at the weekend, festival visitors who have had a lot to drink run into as many refugees as we have had in recent days, things could get out of hand," he said.

The annual beer festival, billed as the biggest gathering of its kind in the world, kicks off on Saturday, when Munich Mayor Dieter Reiter ceremonially breaks open the first barrel, and ends on October 4.

Islamists would want to kill this woman or worse. They’re not like the rest of us.

"Who would go there now??"

Germans with an axe to grind.

A new political alignment is emerging in Germany with the left strongly opposed to admitting more refugees. It will dilute the welfare state and put 60 years of Socialism at risk.

And now, the Conservative backbone of Merkels coalition, the CSU (centered in Bavaria) is also very vocal in opposition.

Merkel's CDU/CSU coalition in in political trouble.

The left is opposed to the refugees. That’s good.
And the conservatives are also. WTH made Merkel do this.
If she did not realize that more than she wanted would be the result, she is not as smart I have been led to believe

Those in Berlin believe they can control human nature

What happens now with Greece and the other poorer nations of the EU? They've reduced to forever, hopeless debt. Are they supposed to keep paying back their loans to German banks? They're also being burdened by this nightmare created by NATO/globalist warmongering.

I could foresee a situation where Germany tries to get rid of the "refugees" by settling them into poor eastern European countries. The only country that seems to grasp this possibility is Hungary.

Oktoberfest cancelled this year and every year thereafter. The Muslims won’t stand for it.

(Oh, where is Hitler when you need him?)

No more Munchen wiener schnitzel for me!

Watch for Germany to bow down and accommodate the savage invaders, and cancel the celebration.

“What could possibly go wrong with a million drunk Germans in the midst of a few hundred thousand Muslim invaders?”

Maybe it will be an opportunity for commeraderie, and they will sing “death to the jews” together or something

Beer is haram
Shouldn’t Merkel cancel Oktoberfest for fear of offending the new Germans?

Be on the lookout for a false flag event at this years' 'Fest.

The opportunity is just too great to pass up for those who would foment an international embarrassment.

I thought the possibility, and the situation in Munich on the eve of the 'fest was worthy of Front Page news status.

Apparently the Admin on duty today did not.

Having Oktoberfested, let me attest, that is the most accurate portrayal of Oktoberfest I have seen.
