Merkel says Islam 'belongs to Germany' ahead of Dresden rally

BERLIN (Reuters) - German Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Monday Islam "belongs to Germany", in a clear repudiation of anti-immigration protesters gathering in Dresden and other cities.

A day after walking arm-in-arm with French President Francois Hollande at the front of a massive march in Paris to honor the victims of killings by Islamic militants, Merkel received the Turkish prime minister and urged dialogue among religions.

The conservative chancellor pointed to comments made by former German president Christian Wulff, who said in 2010 that Islam was part of Germany, triggering a fierce debate.

"Former president Wulff said Islam belongs to Germany. That is true. I also hold this opinion," Merkel said at a news conference with Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, who also took part with other world leaders in the Paris march on Sunday.

She was speaking hours before marches by a movement dubbed PEGIDA, or Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamisation of the West, were due to begin in several German cities.

Such demonstrations, launched in Dresden, have been dwarfed by counter-protests. Merkel has said PEGIDA's rallies are organized by people with "hatred in their hearts".

Says something about the Krauts I guess. But we didn't get Ferdinand Porsche. He built that thing. I was just trying to turn a bit of history into something cheeky.

The article calls Mrkel “conservative.” What does that mean? Islam belong to Germany = anti-Semitic. We have already seen the fierce “hate Jews” sentiment spread by these immigrants and asylum seekers in Sweden.

Cupid Stunt. She too should have stayed home instead of going to Paris.

While she is at it why doesn’t she publicly advocate Hitler and Marx too?

All German Citizens shall lay their heads onto the block of Islam and allow Muslim immigrants
to cut their heads off. For this is the word of Merkel and it shall be written, and it shall be obeyed.

The manly men were almost annihilated from the gene pool in Germany during WWII leaving the lesser ones to carry on. Germany doesn't have any where near the alpha males they did 70 years ago.

Yeah, you’re right. Now maybe you can see the ironic humor I was getting at. They’ve totally wussified themselves. Christs sake, I don’t think they could even classify as soccer hooligans.

Frau Merkel: Islam is ALIEN to Germany. Moreover, it is an evil, malignant ideology like the Nazis? Are you saying you excuse Islam because its is a replication of Nazism? [Islam = Nazism]

I can picture it now;

Mufti: “If I can get such a bad Emo haircut as you then maybe I can stop wearing this cereal bowl on my head and kill more Jews.”

Hitler: “Go for it dude.”

Well then.

Islam will of course reward your efforts, Merkel, with a series of bombings that claim hundreds of victims; a series of shootings that horrify your nation; and a few beheadings that will be posted on Youtube.

And then you will supplicate yourself further. That is because you have no personal self worth. You think you are s***, and you know what?

You're right.

They're finished Laz. All of Western Europe is done. Fifty-plus years of socialist rot, entitlement mentality and multiculturalism have left them bereft of any identity or self-worth. Combined with loads of secular humanism and unfettered immigration how could a hostile, violent and non-assimilating culture like Islam not take advantage of such a bunch of suckers? At this rate ten years, fifteen tops and all the great cathedrals of Europe will be mosques. We might live yet to see the Royals in England being publicly be-headed. Two world wars to free these a-holes from themselves and this is how they let it all go.

Perhaps Germany would be a good place to concentrate the muslims into a few camps?
