It’s a complicated problem that Berlin should have picked up by the end of 2013....talked over....made wise decisions....set limits....and avoided problems. Instead, they just choose to continue on....fixing minor issues as they crossed each bridge, and kept waiting for the next problem to occur.

Mid-March....three state elections occur in Germany. Normally, it wouldn’t matter for a state election. In this case, it’s a frustration vote matter, and it could go negative against Merkel, her party, and the coalition party (SPD).

I think it’s grown to the point where it’s simply too complicated now for the typical German to understand and this ‘fix-it’ mentality that might be shoved upon Berlin...it’s way beyond their grasp or capability.

It just struck me at how much “fun” these Moslem immigrants could have if all of our cold war troops were still in Germany and the housing areas and Kasernes open.

Of course, then those empty Kasernes would not be available for housing said ‘refugees.’

Shame that the west is looking at ways to integrate the muslim horde is team of standing up for their nations.
I guess it’s the whole socialist experience. We will all suffer and we will all wallow in the mud together. Except for those chosen few pigs, who will be more equal than the rest and will lead us.

How do you not talk about it on facebook?

There will be a push back. The question is how hard of a push back. I think Germany needs to find a bit of their nationalistic spirit but I am a bit torn because they don’t have a good track record with that.

Not at a brink, more like on the bottom of a subduction zone.

Any truth to the rumor that Bill Clinton was in Germany on NYE?

It appears that Adolf Hitler has been reincarnated as a radical Muslim and now he is re-invading Europe all over again.

66% of the Migrants are young Muslim males who have been raised in a culture where women are disrespected and are less than 2nd class citizens. What did Merkel expect from this group? She should be kicked out of office.

Good article. One thing he doesn’t mention is not only that these Muslim “immigrants” are unmarried young men, but that because of polygamy, many of them wouldn’t have any chance of marrying I their home countries anyway.

The women go to the higher status and older males, and since the ratio of men to women in society is general about 50/50, if one man has four wives, this means others won’t have any. It’s one of the reasons that the first thing Muslim invaders of a country do is to capture the women and dole them out among the (generally lower status) fighters.

I read an analysis that said that one of the reasons Muslim countries are traditionally unstable is that they have a huge percentage of single young men - who will never be able to marry even in their home countries, thanks to polygamy.

National suicide. We lived in Germany for 6 years and it was wonderful. We would not even visit now.

Note that as date the number of complaints has risen by a factor of four or five. Trying to locate yesterday’s article reporting this.

So yet again the NYT is soft peddling actual facts.

from:

http://m.spiegel.de/international/germany/a-1070894.html
DPA

January 7 2016

An internal police protocol has revealed the full extent of the violence in Cologne on New Year’s Eve. According to the report, which SPIEGEL has seen, officials were overwhelmed and powerless to help some people calling for help.

Law enforcement officials lost control of the situation in Cologne on New Year’s Eve, according to an internal report by Germany’s national police, the Bundespolizei, obtained by DER SPIEGEL. The author of the report, dated Jan. 4, is a senior official. He writes: “Women, accompanied or not, literally ran a ‘gauntlet’ through masses of heavily intoxicated men that words cannot describe.” The horde in front of and inside the train station was unmoved by the presence of police.

According to the report, officers encountered many distraught, crying, frightened pedestrians, particularly women and girls. They reported “fights, thefts, sexual assaults against women, etc.” Groups of male migrants were repeatedly named as perpetrators.

Identifying those responsible — especially the perpetrators of sexual assaults — “was unfortunately no longer possible.” The reason: “Security forces were unable to get all of the incidents, assaults, crimes, etc. under control. There were simply too many happening at the same time.” Police were frustrated at their inability to help each victim. At times, it wasn’t even possible to record all of the complaints that were being lodged.

The report lists several examples of police officers’ experiences:

Officers were hindered from pushing their way through to people calling for help by tight clusters of men.

A man is quoted as saying: “I’m a Syrian! You have to treat me kindly! Ms. Merkel invited me.”

Witnesses were threatened when they provided the names of perpetrators.

People reportedly demonstratively tore up residence permits in front of the police, grinned and said: “You can’t touch me. I’ll just go back tomorrow and get a new one.”

The report did not, however, confirm the authenticity of the documents.

Orders for people to leave the premises were ignored; taking repeat offenders into custody was not possible due to lack of resources.

After track closures due to overcrowding, people simply forced their way over adjacent platforms and train tracks back to the closed platform.

Physical fights broke out as trains were being boarded; it was “every man for himself.”

The situation, which was described in the report as “chaos,” was so out of control that there were concerns about serious injuries or even deaths, according to the author. That is why the operation leader decided to clear the square. The report notes that police officers were “bombarded with fireworks and pelted with glass bottles.” Even after the square was cleared, there were “repeatedly multiple physical confrontations between people as well as groups of people, thefts and robberies in several places at the same time.”

The author of the report draws a grim conclusion:

The actions of the police officers was met with a level of disrespect “like I have never experienced in my 29 years of public service.”

Because too few officers were on the scene, the ones that were present “reached the limits of their abilities pretty quickly” — their deployment lasted from 9:45 p.m. until 7:30 a.m.

As central problems facing law enforcement, the report cites overwhelmed police officers, insufficient personnel and weaknesses in equipment, which were “not to be expected.”

The author describes the entire situation on New Years’ Eve as “chaotic and shameful.”

In the days since the New Year’s Eve attacks, Cologne police have received more than 100 complaints.

In an initial statement on the morning of Jan. 1, the police press department noted that the situation on the prior evening had been “relaxed.”

Cologne Police President Wolfgang Albers later admitted that “this initial statement was incorrect.”

Cologne attackers were of migrant origin - minister

January 11, 2016

The men suspected of attacking women in Cologne on New Year's Eve were "almost exclusively" from a migration background, mainly North African and Arab, an official report says.

Cologne police also made "serious mistakes" in not calling reinforcements and the way they informed the public.

More than 500 criminal complaints were filed, 40% alleging sexual assault.

The is no such thing as a “labor shortage”. There is a price point where you can get labor for an endeavor. There is a shortage of “cheap labor”.
