The German government is expecting around 175,000 people to file applications for asylum this year, the highest number in two decades. Regional politicians are acting surprised, but there have been signs of this development for years now. [ ]
The refugees in Germany are fleeing many things: the civil war in Syria, the recent wave of terror in Iraq, torturous regimes but also, in many cases, a life of poverty and no prospects, be it in Africa or as a member of the Roma minority in Serbia. Germanys Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) estimates that as many as 175,000 people will apply for asylum in Germany this year alone, the highest number seen in the past 20 years and double the figure for 2013. [ ]
Protests have also been popping up in the countryside. In the Bavarian municipality of Salzweg, near the Austrian border, village locals have fought against the leasing of an inn for refugee families. In Anzing, near Munich, posters were recently hung in the old foresters lodge that was supposed to house refugees: They included a rhyme claiming that the 30 men the inn was to house would be a burden for the community. In the Baden-Württemberg town of Fellbach, refugees had to move out of a container village located in the parking lot of a stadium because of neighbor complaints.

I’d take in all the Christian illiterate Arabs. They make good citizens.
Are there any remaining?
I can only think of “heilige Scheiße” in German.
The Barbarian Invasions redux.

Definitely.
Dunka!
(I probably spelled it wrong).
Unfortunately for them there are. I just hope that the remaining ones can get out safely.
I’ve heard of ‘heiligen mist!’. ‘Crap!’ is more accurately expressed as ‘mist!’ as it BS, rubbish, bollocks, etc.. I don’t think there is a strict Arabic equivalent..don’t know..
