| | Re: Do you believe in Merkel? | Quote: | |  | | | You mean that Eastern European countries served the interests of the EU , unlike Greece & unlike Merkel's Germany. | | | | | No, they just served their own interests.
"Solidarity" as a concept does not exist in Eastern Europe, AFAIK.

But the EU created the situation that lead to this large influx of refugees.
So, it's only logical that the EU as a whole deal with the consequences.
As I said - it would have been impossible to stop the tide of refugees at some point - except by gunning them down with machine guns.
I have no doubt you'd have found enough volunteers for doing just that in Hungary et.al - but that is not what the EU (in its core) is about.

The world or the eu did not intervene, because only when the economical
aspects of the eu/world are in danger, they are going to war.
They could have spent a few million , to support the refugees in their own territory, now they are here in europe and it will cost billions.
The president of germany ,Mr.Gauck, made some remarks in india, that germany is big enough (space) and german families don't have enough childs,
so germany is waiting for people from other parts of the world, those people
who are willing to live and work in germany. http://www.welt.de/politik/ausland/a...utschland.html
No talks about requriements, kind and manner.
Sorry, does Mr.Gauck know how many indians are on this planet ?
Does he really believe, that there is enough space for them in Germany ?
Politics in Germany are like pain in the ass.
Convincing people that germany is waiting for them, that germany is a good place to live, that they solved the "crisis from 2008".
The opposite is the naked truth.

Did Hungary create the situation that lead to this influx? Now, take a deep breath and allow yourself a moment of honesty.

"Solidarity" as a concept does not exist in Eastern Europe, AFAIK. | | | | | It is Merkel who has been acting against solidarity here. Basically telling a million people it was okay to march across other people's countries without their permission. She is pretty much isolated at present. The Germans themselves will be the last to wake up to the fact, but wake up they will.

These people would have marched towards Germany regardless.
There's nothing that could have prevented that.

These people come from a war-zone.
They've seen things we'll hopefully never have to see.
Unless you're prepared to shoot, don't show up with a weapon.
And shooting means also shooting on women, old people and kids.
You're not much better than the European politicians: you're really not thinking this through.

Methinks you've sort of lost touch with why we have a police force and why we have an army and ultimately why we have a government and a state.

Election results just coming in.
Seems like afd has taken 23percent in saxony anhalt
Not quite as spectacular in the other two states, more like 12 or 11 percent

Saxony-Anhalt was never known for its left-leaning population.
It's a state with no future.
Just take a look at the projected population development: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sachse...ngsentwicklung
Most intelligent, fertile women (and a lot of men) will have left already for greener pastures.
Makes for a lot of angry, dumb men who can't find a wife/girlfriend.
Not unprecedented in history, unfortunately.

Look at the swing to AFD. Even in Pfalz. Taken together with the swing away from the pro migration parties (Greens and CDU) shows you all that you need to know.
