t a sprawling camp in the German town of Celle, refugees wearing thick sweaters sit around a heater smoking cigarettes as rain beats down on the cramped white tent that has become their home. Some of them are ill and worried it will snow.
"The weather is so cold that I can't even leave the tent," said Taher, a 25-year-old Syrian farmer. Sitting on his camp bed surrounded by wet washing that hangs limply from tent poles, he reaches for a box of cough medicine.
With the approach of winter, authorities are scrambling to find warm places to stay for the thousands of refugees streaming into Germany every day. In desperation, they have turned to sports halls, youth hostels and empty office buildings.
But as these options dry up, tent cities have become the fall-back plan: despite falling temperatures, a survey by German newspaper Die Welt showed at least 42,000 refugees were still living in tents.
The challenge of finding adequate housing is turning into one of the biggest tests for the government of Angela Merkel, who has stuck doggedly to her mantra "Wir schaffen das" ("we can do this") in the face of rising public scepticism.

Maybe Glenn Beck will send them some teddy bears.
“”The weather is so cold that I can’t even leave the tent,” said Taher, a 25-year-old Syrian farmer.”
I’ve got a couple of suggestions for you, Taher: (i) live in a hole dug into a snow bank, or (ii) walk back to Krapistan. You won’t be missed.
Running in place can keep you warm.
Fighting for your country in a warm climate can keep you warm.
Here’s to hoping the able bodied young “refugee” men freeze to death in Germany and resort to cannibalism.
send them to their real homes ( or lose yours)
ASAP
Find them homes in Arabia.
Easily solved: SEND THEM BACK!!!
[...authorities are scrambling to find warm places to stay for the thousands of refugees...]
C’mon Germany, you are known for making very efficient furnaces that put out a lot of heat, get busy.
Send them all to Merkel’s house - yard, front and back porch, roof, basement, whatever.....let her take care of them. AND every other politician who hasn’t opposed her idiot idea!!!
and the bad news is??
aaaah. Life in the fake refugee lane.
Shoulda thought of that, murkel.
Vaginas. The Army had us in tents one winter.
Let them cook pigs
The US has cut back on its military presence in Germany. There ought to be some old Kasernen around somewhere.
Yes We Camp!
Those tents would be ideal for a desert.
Perhaps they should remember to order one of those Russian winters from the early '40s?
3 points! Snicker...
I hear tell that there is this whole country made just for Syrians. I bet they can find a place for them there.

There have been several articles on FR about such conversions recently.
