Support For Anti-Muslim AfD Hits Record High As 60% Agree That "Islam Does Not Belong In Germany"
Zero Hedge ^ | Tyler Durden

Posted on 05/07/2016 11:00:13 AM PDT by Lorianne

We recently pointed out that Germany's Alternative for Germany (AfD) party was gaining significant popularity as the anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim tide continued to rise in Germany. We then noted that everyone in the establishment will be shocked when the AfD's polling numbers started to climb higher.

We expect much more such back and forth between the "left" and the "right", which just like in the US, will ultimately benefit the object the media has decided to target for ridicule, until - just like in Austria - Germany's establishment is shocked when the AfD's polling skyrockets in the coming months and leads to drastic changes in Germany's political landscape.

Anytime you can get 6 out of 10 people to agree on something you have a groundswell of epic proportions. But the way Germany is governed means that everything is a compromise. The biggest party, the CDU, carries only 30% of the public vote. It takes 50% to form a government. That means that even if the AFD gets into the 30% range, it will form a compromise government with another party that is pro-immigrant. Some of those 6/10 voters are in other parties and it is unlikely they will vote for AFD candidates. It would be like a Democrat forsaking Bernie or Hillary to vote for Trump. Some may but most won’t.

Is AfD Europe’s version of the Trump movement here?

I’d like someone to show me a social construct - any country anywhere - where Muslims get along with their non-Muslim neighbors. Hell, they can’t even get along with other Muslims.

The future must not belong to those who deny the true nature of Islam

John Quincy Adams on Islam

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).

Thanks for the best laugh of the morning. Glad no coffee was in my mouth or hands before reading this:

The CSU is feeling pressure on the immigration issue. Even if the CDU sticks with the SPD and holds the Merkel line, the CSU might be turned to the right.

“The Germans have already let the barbarians in the gates. How are they going to get them out?”

*******

Seems like cutting off all or most of their welfare benefits would be a good place to start. Heck, that might even be the only thing necessary.
