‘We can’t take any more!’, Germany closes border, stops ALL trains

Apparently, German Chancellor Merkel has come to her senses and stopped chastising Christians for “not knowing the Bible as well as Muslims know the Quran,” which is what she said when asked about the threat posed by the Muslim emigration crisis. I kid you not.

Merkel is largely to blame for declaring that Germany would spend 6.6 billion on resettlement and try to accommodate over 800,000 Muslim migrants. Germanistan indeed.

The fact is, if this was allowed to continue, Europe will descend into civil war.

‘We can’t take any more!’ Germany stops ALL trains from Austria as they reintroduce border controls and temporarily suspend Schengen Agreement.

Germany has become the destination for many desperate Syrian refugees. Munich, which has been the main entry point, is now at breaking point. Germany has announced a reintroduction of ‘temporary’ border controls. The move marks a dramatic shift back from Europe’s Schengen agreement. Europe is struggling to deal with the huge influx of people fleeing violence.

By Thomas Burrows and Sam Tonkin For Mailonline, 13 September 2015

Germany’s open-door policy to refugees appeared to be unravelling tonight following the country’s reinstatement of border controls to curb the overwhelming influx of migrants.

Europe’s top economy halted all trains from Austria and, in an historic move, temporarily suspended the open borders Schengen Agreement in response to the arrival of tens of thousands of Syrian refugees in recent days.

The decision marks a dramatic shift away from the current abolishment of passport checks throughout Europe’s Schengen zone.

German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere said: ‘At this moment Germany is temporarily introducing border controls again along [the EU’s] internal borders. The focus will be on the border to Austria at first.

‘The aim of these measures is to limit the current inflows to Germany and to return to orderly procedures when people enter the country.

Mr de Maiziere added: ‘This step has become necessary. The great readiness to help that Germany has shown in recent weeks… must not be overstretched.’

The Interior Minister did not specify how long the border controls would remain in place or give details of exactly how incoming migrants would be handled. He said there could be disruption to rail travel. Most migrants have been arriving by train.

Germany’s national railway, Deutsche Bahn, said it had halted service between Austria and Germany for 12 hours at authorities’ orders.

The rules of Europe’s passport-free travel zone, known as the Schengen area, allow countries to reintroduce controls in exceptional circumstances, and the European Commission said that ‘the current situation in Germany … appears to be a situation covered by the rules.’

In a statement the EU executive said: ‘The temporary reintroduction of border controls between member states is an exceptional possibility explicitly foreseen in and regulated by the Schengen Borders Code, in case of a crisis situation.’

It added that the executive would keep the situation under review and said the aim would be to return to the normal situation of no border checks between member states of the Schengen zone ‘as soon as feasible’.

The European Commission added: ‘The German decision of today underlines the urgency to agree on the measures proposed by the European Commission in order to manage the refugee crisis.’

It is not yet clear exactly what the temporary measures include, but the move comes as German authorities have warned they are at ‘the limit’ in coping with the migrant crisis, with locals claiming Munich is on the brink of collapse.

German newspaper Bild cited security sources as saying the state government in Bavaria had asked the federal police to help deal with the task.

The newspaper said the federal police would send 2,100 officers to Bavaria to help it secure its borders.

Germany has become the destination for many desperate Syrian refugees fleeing their war-torn home country, after it waived EU rules in August.

Tens of thousands of people have crossed Austria by train on their way to Germany since the two countries threw open their borders to the migrants last weekend. A record number were expected to enter Austria from Hungary on Sunday.

The German government announced the nation would take in applications for Syrian asylum-seekers, regardless of where they first arrived in the EU.

Munich, in Germany’s southern state of Bavaria, has been the main entry point for those entering the country.

Some 13,015 refugees arrived in Munich yesterday alone and 1,400 more are expected to reach the city today – but there are fears it is already at breaking point.

A police spokesman in Munich said: ‘Given the numbers from yesterday, it is very clear that we have reached the upper limit of our capacity.’

Federal transport minister Alexander Dobrindt added how ‘effective measures are necessary now to stop the influx’.

This is clearly an invasion by an army of young jihadis men to take over Europe. It doesn't take long to count the women as there are very few.

Let the raping, arson, murder, theft begin. Merkel's clearly to blame. Dump her and go with a nationalist candidate.

Bye, bye tourist trade.

WTH!!! no one noticed but the washington compost wrote an article stating how terrible it was that there were 1/3 women and children among the refugees. WTH!!!!

Did they miss something. These guys look as healthy as any teenage european, except they are going to kill Europeans.

And Europeans aren’t reproducing fast enough to repel future crusades.

Oh, I forget. I got on my high horse mentioning crusades.

I HATE the president more than anyone on this board. I know that’s not true, but my Sicilian temper makes me feel like it.

THIS JUST IN Hijra Alert---Muslim Migrant crisis: Austria to deploy troops

Austria, and the rest of Europe, should be assured....they have the entire Christian world on their side.

Germany announced it would take in 800,000 refugees.

Germany is a thriving, wealthy industrious country...the one that was able to bail out Greece, and weathered the subprime/bank meltdown basically unscathed.

Hard to imagine a financially-astute, conservative German population would stand idly by and allow the unruly Syrian mobs to takeover their beautiful country.

Then the tide turned. Merkel stepped back. The industrious, religious Germans apparently decided they can't deal w/ a bunch of unruly anti-Christian refugees intent on causing mayhem in Christian Germany.

Letting in the Muslim mob, would see the pristine German countryside littered w/ Muslim detritus....not to mention their body wastes.

The calculated Muslim refugees whined that they "were poor" b/c European countries were rich. And now the avaricious refugees want to takeover these countries.

The refugees get-rich-quick schemes include looting the European countries' hard-won affluence.

===================================================

HERE'S A TYPICAL REFUGEE MINDSET: One notorious American example:

Muslim Killer on Disability and Food Stamps had Diamonds and 200 Credit Cards Hidden on Texas property
Front Page Magazine | 6/20/2014 | Daniel Greenfield / FR Posted by Dqban22

This sort of thing is surprisingly common. The only reason it came to light is because the Muslim settler committed two murders in Texas, one of which he actually got away with.

The murder of Christian believer, Gelareh Bagherzadeh, was reported earlier. Gelareh Bagherzadeh was an Iranian Christian who came to this country only to be murdered by a Muslim because she encouraged his daughter to marry the man she loved.

The Texas Muslim claimed he was too disabled to work. But he wasn’t too disabled to kill.

BACKSTORY The Texan, a strict Muslim, was furious when his Jordanian-American daughter married a man without his permission. The Muslim, Ali Mahwood-Awad Irsan, blamed his daughter’s husband, relatives say. They say he also faulted one of her closest friends, 30-year-old Gelareh Bagherzadeh, a Christian convert who widely denounced Islam.

<><> First Christian-believer Bagherzadeh was killed, gunned down outside her parents’ Texas Galleria townhouse complex in January 2012.

<><> Eleven months later, Irsan’s son-in-law died after being shot multiple times in northwest Texas, in the Harris County apartment he shared with his wife.

The Texas Muslim thought he could get away with murdering because he had already gotten away with so many other things in Texas.

Federal authorities executed a search warrant at Irsan’s sprawling, 5-acre property 40 miles north of Houston, where they allegedly found cash, diamonds, pearls, weapons and phony passports hidden in attic rafters, in secret compartments throughout a cluster of trailers and outbuildings and even inside the buried drum of a clothes dryer at the Conroe, Texas property.

The Muslim Irsan, his wife Shmou Ali Alrawabdeh, and another daughter were subsequently arrested on a variety of federal fraud charges and are in federal custody.

A federal criminal complaint detailing the discoveries recounts a saga of nearly 20 years in which the 57-year-old naturalized citizen from Jordan, and his family, allegedly scammed taxpayer disability assistance funds claiming “fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue symptoms,” and “affective disorders” while secreting real estate, vehicles and cash in US and foreign bank accounts.

The criminal complaint also alleges the Muslim Irsan:

<><> was receiving taxpayer funds for a son not living in the US,

<><> maintained several addresses on the property to facilitate various schemes, and,

<><> once disabled a safety feature on a saw then purposefully cut himself to receive a $75,000 settlement.

The Muslim was certainly industrious and entrepreneurial, just not quite in the way amnesty advocates like to claim.

Also found on the property was a makeshift gun range, which witnesses said “five or six Muslim families” frequently visited to fire AK-47s and information about Irsan’s attempts to get a silencer. Nothing to do with Islam I’m sure.

The rest of the scam ......

While there have been no allegations of terrorist ties regarding the Muslim family’s alleged (a) foreign bank accounts, and, (b) suspicious wire transactions, Irsan’s strict adherence to radical Islam may have been a motive in the alleged murders.

Authorities are also re-examining a 1999 case in which Irsan was not indicted after claiming self-defense in the shooting of son-in-law Amjad Alidam, who was married to Nasemah Rachelle Irsan.

And that’s not all. Prosecutors also revealed, in connection to the social security fraud and credit card charges against Irsan, that they found more than 200 credit cards with various names and multiple variations of his own name throughout the Irwin Keel home.

Arresting officers say they also found more than 40 similar credit cards in his wallet the morning he was arrested. His daughter also alleges, among multiple other schemes detailed in court documents, that Ali Irsan purposely disabled the safety device on a Ryobi rotary saw and purposely cut his own foot. Prosecutors say he used that injury to receive a $75,000 settlement from the manufacturer.

Where are they going to put these people?

30,000 military age males (with no wives/girlfriends/family/children)????

And they seem to be getting off the boat and just running for ... someplace. Where are they going? Is housing ready? or are they just letting them loose onto the streets? (that’s what it looks like)

Always thought she was a pretty smart cookie-—but equating the Christian/Bible w/ the Muslim/Quaran was really stupid.

Lookingat several,of the train photos I don’t see ANY women or children. In factbthe vast majority of them look like jihadist soldiers. Germany effed up big time. And we got 10,000 inbound. In fact I wouldn’t put it past Obama to say that he will take in half of the Muslim immigrants from Germany as an act of good will. I can see the traitor doing this no problem.

A conspiracy by the oil-rich Muslim nations to make certain these so-called refugees fill up Western European nations. They won’t take any of them in as they’re destined by the caliphs to invade. Saudi Arabia, even though it has enough air conditioned facilities to house 4 million will donate enough to build 200 mosques in Western Europe.

Sounds like a plan.

I know a woman who was hired to prepare refugee children for German schooling and she said on day 1 they all started stealing from each other.

Many forget Mohammed was allegedly a Christian and studied the Bible before starting his own religion so he knew the history of the world from that experience. He also borrowed it and put it into the Koran when he wrote it to give it an air if legitimacy because thats what you do when you’re oulling off a scam; you mix in just enough trueth so people will believe allmof it to be truthful. Other than the history the teachings and mindset are diametrically different. His lifestyle didn’t reflect a Christian lifestyle at all but more of a steal, kill, and destroy warrior.

Someone mentioned this means Europe can say goodbye to tourism......an industry that figures in the bulk of their economies.

Travelers will think twice about going to places teeming w/ Christian haters and culture destroyers.

Traveling through Europe, one is stunned by the glory of its churches....and the jaw-dropping artwork contained within them.....legacies of history's storied artists and sculptors.

It's unnerving that Muslims want to burn down these structures...... they consider churches an affront to their hate-filled religion.

Merkel is largely to blame for declaring that Germany would spend 6.6 billion on resettlement and try to accommodate over 800,000 (or more) Muslim migrants.

Would it not be smarter to use that money to secure an area in Syria or another Muslim country? A secure area would provide a safe haven for 800,000 Muslim migrants until a coalition of nations could end the civil war.

Leftists have disordered minds, but even some of them see the insanity of turning over Europe to an Islamist State. What are the demographics of the "refugees?"

Are the demographics heavily populated by men, with fewer women and children? Or, is that kind of question too difficult to comprehend (or to connect the dots) for socialist leaders?

Like the USA, this huge influx of migrants into southern Germany will dilute the most Conservative voting block in Germany. Bavaria has always been a more conservative area, usually voting against the advancement of further socialism. So, in that respect it is a bit like Texas is to the USA. Proud of its heritage, and the biggest state in Germany, Bavaria is also the primary agricultural area of the republic.

By bringing in all those migrants, it may turn the state into a “blue” zone.
