It is sad that Herr von Dohnanyi sees President Trump in this light. I recommend reading “Bonhoeffer, Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy!” by Eric Mataxas, to understand his references to his mother, father and Hitler's Germany. He has fallen into a trap, that of redefining facism as a right wing thing and forgetting the the Nazis were socialists.

It shocks me how so many people totally blind themselves of our enemy. Marxists actually believe in a global utopia with Islam. That tells me they know nothing of Islam except the lies that muslims have a duty to, to benefit Islam. For more than 1400 years, without a break, Islam has brought the world terror thru slavery, suppression, rape/sodomy, torture and slaughter, all to benefit Islam in a goal to create a global Islam Caliphate. This is the muslim’s duty. Got a feeling these people will be the first to die. Semper Fi

Cleveland Orchestra Director and Bonhoeffer nephew ...

He was a defenseman for the Flyers. I used to watch him come back up ice with his stick in the butt of the opposition. Had a hell of a set of elbows.

It’s very hard to stop people from committing suicide when they are completley determined to do it.

The level of stupidity taking over these people. I love how they just pretend there’s no issue whatsoever in Muslim controlled nations where violence and death are the norms. Nevermind being openly anti-Semite and calling for extermination of Jews, yet here is another fool.

Hilarious.

Jewish suicidal bent on display!

The ban really exists to protect Jews from becoming headless at the hands of their worst enemies.

Trump’s ban is AGAINST the modern day Nazis. And this guy thinks they’re victims? Of what, Trump depriving them of the opportunity to perpetrate Holocaust II?

Just another suicidal nihilist who believes in moral relativism and that there should be no “nations” and “states” and “walls” which even Jesus believed in and observed and respected.

Civilization can’t flourish, as the Founders understood, with antithetical worldview of a people who worship satanic, pagan, irrational gods like Zeus who rapes little boys. As Christians, we are commanded to keep Holy, which means keep apart from those evil people and ideologies, for they are given over to the devil. God commanded Lot to flee Sodom-—and islam, with their homosexual, sexist cultures with boy harems and polygamy, could be rated the same as sodom. They certainly use human beings in evil irrational ways.

Why would be invite such an evil, warped, worldview, which is antithetical to the Constitution and Freedom into our country???? That is committing suicide. Reason makes us into the image of God—and this useful idiot would make Pastor Bonhoeffer turn in his grave at knowing such a relative completely distorts the Truth of God and is so irrational—ungodly.

So this genius thinks we should have opened our doors to “Un-Vetted German Refugees” during WW-II......

Yeah... I am sure all the German refugees we would have pulled in during WW-II would certainly not be a NAZI among them, especially any German Male ages 16 - 40....

Yeah, no need to check those German Refugees for NAZIs....

That would have worked out so very well...

Frickin... GENIUS with a Capital DUH!

My favorite college German professor was saved from the Holocaust and came here to teach. I benefited greatly from that as he was one of the most gracious and wonderful people I’ve met. But he fled as a victim of oppression, not as a perpetrator. And the President of the University had to pull some strings and get him through some serious vetting to get him here.

That’s a far cry from opening our borders to anyone claiming “refugee” status where we know nothing about them.

Related or not, he’s not worthy to speak Bonhoeffer’s name.

Quisling!

Here is a Muslim who was on good terms with the man responsible for the deaths of four of Christoph von Dohnanyi's relatives. Has von Dohnanyi ever heard of the Muslim SS units in Albania and the Muslim parts of Yugoslavia? Is he aware that there are similarly-motivated Muslims in the world today? How can he not be aware, after witnessing 911, the atrocities of ISIS, Al-quaeda, Boko Haram, Hamas, and the murders and sexual assaults and other crimes against innocents all over the world? With all of that, he is alarmed about the well-gronded caution countries have toward allowing Muslims in? He must live in a very special dream world. It's people like him who have led me to conclude that liberals would prefer to endure slavery, torture, death -- and take everyone else along with them -- than be accused of "discrimination" or being called a "bigot."

He would be detained because he is a Muslim from Iran.

Enough of the intellectual dishonesty, Chris; the average American is a lot smarter than you have been led to believe.

Your friend would be detained solely because he was from Iran, religion has nothing to do with it.

At least not until the world, or at least the U.S., comes to realize that Islam according to its Koran, is nothing but a terrorist group.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer would NEVER have used a distant relative as his moral authority.

In his mind, there was ONLY ONE Moral Authority, and that was Jesus Christ.

This is true ,6 million Jews were exterminated,and with the exception of a few they still do not get it. I see stupidity and willful ignorance coming back to haunt Jews. This is scary...

His uncle stood up to tyranny. This guy defends the tyranny of Islam.

How many concerts has this guy conducted in Somalia? I mean, if he is all fired up for Somalia, why doesn’t he take his orchestra there?
