Girl bursts into tears after Angela Merkel explains to her exactly why she must be deported

Full title: 'You can't all come': Palestinian immigrant girl bursts into tears after 'heartless' German leader Angela Merkel explains personally to her on TV exactly why she must be deported

The German Chancellor has been criticised for telling a Palestinian girl that her family might be deported because: 'You can't all come.'

Angela Merkel made the comments during a discussion with a group of schoolchildren at an event about 'living in Germany'.

The girl, known as Reem, surprised Merkel when she revealed her family had been waiting for four years to receive permanent residency.

She added that they could be forced to leave the country because her father could not continue his welding work on a temporary permit.

She said: 'It's really difficult to see that others are really able to enjoy their lives and you yourself can't enjoy it with them.'

According to The Local, the Chancellor hesitated for a minute before replying: 'You are an extremely nice person.

'You know, in the Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon there are thousands and thousands [of people]. If we now say "you can all come"... we just can't manage that.' The answer left Reem, who has studied for four years in Rostock and is fluent in English and German, in tears.

Kudos to Merkel for explaining the obvious although she is taking the expected flak. While she was at it , she also expressed opposition to same sex marriage.

Now the girl should be a force for change in Pakistan. A guerrilla leader perhaps.

TEMPORARY work permit. They/she knew it had an end date. Crocodile tears.

I’m sure the press is acting like she made her strip and walk into the “showers” for a nice Zyklon-B rinse.

Better to let the tears flow now, than wait for the blood to flow later when too many radical Immigrants flood the area. You can see what has happened to Paris.

Why can’t we get leaders like this in our country?

This is reality. As as for tears from this individual, one must also keep in mind about the logical fallacy of appeal to emotion.

Merkel has more b___lls than pretty much every male leader in the West. This is the Left’s favorite trick — have some sympathetic figure tell a sob story to get increases in spending or to allow some other liberal social policy. Merkel’s answer is exactly the right one — ignore the tears and do what’s right. Maybe the Right should do this too — have some young German boy ask Merkel to keep immigrants out so his daddy can finally get a job.

This year...at the current pace...there’s likely to be 30,000 to 40,000 just in Hessen alone. You can figure throughout all of Germany, it’ll be near 250,000.

The issue after you examine this whole process....is it takes probably eighteen months to inprocess someone, approve them, get them into integration and language classes, and finally get them hired. Finding adequate low-income housing? Difficult in urban areas. There’s a bit of shock after 100 days as they discover the true cost of living. By the end of 365 days in Germany....there’s some questions because they now figure out that while there is a better lifestyle....you have to work hard to reach any type of marginal acceptance of living. Gas, food, heat, and taxes eat up the bulk of any pay situation.

Last year, they got into a new priority deal. If you try to come in from Serbia or any Yugoslav area....you get turned around. The Syrians are approved without any questions currently.

If you watch commentary by political folks in Germany....there’s not of a four-star plan laid out.

I propose a simple thought experiment: Let’s move all the Pakistanis to Germany, and all the Germans to Pakistan, leaving absolutely nobody behind at either end — 100% compliance. (It’s a thought experiment: we can do this.)

Come back in five years and measure the last year of “old” GNP with the now five years’ later GNP in both countries.

What would you bet would be the outcome?

I've been following the refugee and immigration for a while now. It's not making the news in this country apart from a brief statement or two..... But European countries have a definite invasion...and these are mostly young men .... No thanks to the rules they developed to welcome any who's feet touch their lands.

Added to this the UN'S making determinations on what refugees each country is to take....and they aren't Christians as is often spoken of here in the US. Less than 5% are Christians ...the rest are Muslims and from Muslim country's. That's because the Christians won't go to the camps because they are tormented there...but the camps are where the UN is selecting from.

This is NOT normal immigration behaviour that is taking place... This is being ' directed ' and planned by people with an ulterior objective in mind, The end plan of which ' can only have the intention of making the West unmanageable as I see it.....As many have stated...Over time this immigration will be more devastating to our children and grandchildren than any terrorist attack could ever be.

Bulgaria is fighting it.....completed it's NEW FENCE around April of this year... to keep a surge of refugees from the Middle East and North Africa on the Turkish side of their border.

Actually the Germans WILL eventually “take them all”. Simply because they’ve taken too many already.

I’ll bet they didn’t bother to show the tears of the children of the person her dad replaced at work.

Ah, lets not worry about those tears...

Pakistan will be making really great cars and motorcycles.

Pakis would have turned Germany into a hell hole, at war with all of the rest of Europe.
Germans would have built Pakistan into the envy of Asia and would have flourishing trade with most of Asia.

The fact that few would doubt this outcome speaks volumes of what is really wrong with Islamic culture.

'You can't all come.'

Long past time we had a president and other 'leaders' with enough backbone to make that simple and totally true statement, and make it again and again.

As they say in the biz....nothing so Permanent as a Temporary Worker.

They aren’t being deported, merely going home when the job is over.

If she wants to come back there’s no reason she can’t apply now.

sorry little girl - no one wants your kind around.
