Many pilots in Germany are refusing to participate in deportations, local media reported on Monday.
Following an information request from the Left Party, the government said that 222 planned flights were stopped by pilots who wanted no part in the controversial return of refugees to Afghanistan, which has been deemed a “safe country of origin” in some cases, despite ongoing violence and repression in parts of the country.
Some 85 of the refusals between January and September 2017 came from Germany’s main airline Lufthansa and its subsidiary Eurowings. About 40 took place at Düsseldorf airport, where the controversial deportations are routinely accompanied by protesters on the tarmac. The majority of the canceled flights, around 140, took place at Frankfurt Airport, Germany’s largest and most important hub.
Lufthansa spokesman Michael Lamberty defended personnel who chose not to fly deported people back to their countries of origin, saying that sometimes security was a concern. […]
As Germany stepped up deportations, the number of asylum seekers appealing their decisions has increased significantly. Nearly every second ruling made by the BAMF in the first half of the year was brought before a judge. This is nearly double the number of appeals made during the same period in 2016 — as it stands now, the courts side with about one in every four asylum seekers who appeal their status. According to public broadcaster NDR, these suits have cost Berlin about €19 million ($22.5 million) from January to November 2017, an increase of €7.8 million from the previous year. …

Germany can alway cancel their pilot’s license!
Indoctrinated DUMBA$$ES
The nihilist indoctrination and DE-Christianizing of Europe is reaching its zenith.
If Europe is to survive it must have a revival of its Christian faith. It should be obvious to anyone by now that purely secular atheist government can not withstand the Muslim onslaught.
Liberal nihilistic atheist are no match for an orthodox Muslim hoard willing to commit mass murder and die while fighting for his faith.
Only armies united by their Christian Faith have ever defeated the Muslim hoards.
“The Hun is either at your feet or at your throat’’.- Winston Churchill.
Truer words never spoken. I fear Western Europe is lost. There are no real men, the type needed to save it left in it anymore.
“They’re trying so hard to be the exact opposite of Nazis.”
That’s about 10% of it. The rest of the mental illness stems from cultural marxism or ideological subversion. Like the left here, they are totally brainwashed. How brainwashed? They would rather be raped and killed than to be called ‘racist’.
Suspend their lic.
No, landing is what endangers the pilots. Just drop them off.
There is an easier solution than that.
Many countries actually have official or unofficial ‘flag carriers’ - basically, national airlines. Make a condition of flying into Germany that any flag carriers must use any empty seats on return flights to carry back “distressed”, er, deported citizens of that country. Germany would pay for an airline ticket, of course, but it’d be a lot cheaper.
The German air travel market is hugely lucrative so these flag carriers won’t stop flying to Germany.
We can do that here in the US, too - require AeroMexico to take Mexican deportees back, etc.
You are exactly correct.
However, what is the source, the FORCE, of the Muslim infiltration ?
If Europe is de Christianized that’s one thing. But the goal of the left is the flooding of EU with Muslim jihadi .
Hint: Rhymes with SOROS, actually is SOROS.
Deport and defenestrate this fascist.
Lots of starving pilots with commercial multi-engine ratings around .... fire the german pile-its !
No .... just set em on the floor with the ramp down. Post a shotgun up in the cockpit and hook in the crew chief and loadmaster. They get froggy on the way home practice some stalls and dump em out the ass end.
That is a superior idea. I would that everyone gets a pat down for weapons.
It’s going to be 3 maybe 4 German generations dead and gone before the damage Hitler did to Germany finally corrects it’s self.
Sad. I guess that’s the price to be paid.
“Lufthansa? Why not use a bunch of Luftwaffe C-160 transports instead?”
Decades ago, a man sued the US government because they were using army trucks to transport supplies and fuel. He won and got a contract transporting the very same stuff. He had to buy trucks as he wasn’t in the business until he had the contract. I believe it was around that time that Congress made the military give up all kinds of things that had been done by the military to maintain their bases and turn them over to contractors. It set up and entire industry and, I’m certain, led to a lot of donations to Congressmen. Probably Germany has the same issue. Their military is legally limited in what it can do that is not direcly related to defense.
A few years ago, I picked up a one day supposed tech job on a base near here. The guy was kind of vague but involved network printers.
Anyway I met the lead and finally found the building. My total involvement was helping the guy lift a very heavy MFP on to a desk and putting the other in a crate. Base IT was going to do the rest.
$100 for maybe 45 minutes or so IIRC.
The whole exercise made 0 sense to me. Why pay people to do stuff like this?
“Why pay people to do stuff like this?”
Oh,IknowIknowIknow!!!
Because he had the budget for your help. If he failed to use the budget he didn’t meet his spend goals.
Spend goals are absolutely ridiculous. (The concept.) The idea is that if you spent the money, at the time you said you would, then you are on schedule and on budget.
There are other possible reasons, also related to spending your budget so you get the same, or bigger, budget next time. The bigger your budget, the more important you are and the more pay you can demand. Also, there are perverse goals for which people get reviewed. Good review, good raise.
The entire budget and purchasing process used by the military and the government needs to be reviewed and changed to alter how people get rewarded. (Of course, it won’t happen because doing so would be something they’d do if they had to run at a profit. They don’t have to run at a profit as profit doesn’t make sense the way they are set up.)
Much safer to just fly over the country above 10,000 and air drop the crate they’re housed in - easy way to get rid of the oversupply of shipping containers, keeps the smell confined, and provides housing for homeless Afghanis, while ensuring no loss of US personnel.
You have NAILed it.
The total reason for European immigration policy (by their rulers) is illegitimate guilt, which must be paid by European suicide.
Yank their license to do business.
