The mistake was taking refugees.
And taking years and years to figure out out, Frau Genius.
Duh...misappropriated compassion.
She does realize that EU countries have NAVIES, doesnt she?
They could end this refugee crisis very easily.
The real problem is that OBAMA destabilized the entire Middle East and Bush the second also has much blame for this.
We should have just left the despots alone and this humanitarian crisis would not have happened. Despots keep their own people in check.
We should have just destroyed those that were a clear and present danger as was post 911 and left the rest to misery in their own nations. They have been killing each other for 1400 years. It is not our problem.
Bush the second decided nation building was the answer. He was a fool. Just turn the nation over to the despot of your choice and walk away. If that despot becomes a danger, destroy him from the air and go home. When I say destroy from the air, I mean the leaders and government apparatus of control. Destroy their economy and infrastructure and just go home. That nation or nations will then descend into internal warfare, chaos, misery and death. It is not our problem.
It should be noted that the misery the people are subjected to by their despots is far less than their misery today.
If they are not a clear and present danger, we should have no dog in the fight.
Bull shit. Merkel knew exactly what she was doing.
Trump allowed syrian rapefugees in yr 1. That sad littltle child washing up in front of a camera. Iirc he said ivanka made him do it.
Germany’s mistake is Merkel. They seem to have a penchant for electing leaders who wind up destroying the country. They recovered magnificently from the Hitler debacle only to (probably) being permanently unsalvageable under the commie hag Merkel. But then we should talk ...8 years of Obama.
They are not refugees.
You met the enemy. He is your own Communist leaders.
They are destroying you. Now you must fight back or die.
Recruiting and mobilizing 2-3 million people from all over the Muslim world took years of planning and on the ground organizing . The logistics were lavishly financed. The EU government officials snd media were in on the scheme and rammed it down Europe's throat.
In the run up to the 2012 election there was a guy literally running around Washington claiming there was a plot to invade the EU with 2 million Muslims refugees and force the US to accept another 250,000 per year.
He pretty much disappeared.
He was spot on, right down to the precise numbers
As idiotic as she was/is, she was far from alone in this. The German elites have all bought into this insanity of welcoming any and all the trash that washes up on their shores - and then lavishing German taxpayer money on them - for a long time. I distinctly remember having these discussions with my German professors when I was an exchange student there in the early to mid 90s.
It simply didn’t seem to dawn on them that some people are savages who are totally incompatible with Western values, that they have no skills or desire to acquire them and will simply be a huge burden on the taxpayer and will never turn into good little worker bees to help pay for all that socialism they have. Nor did it dawn on them that a lot of these people come with completely different values which, rather than adopting German values will instead try to impose their values on Germans - and who will victimize German citizens in the process......ie that they are simply complete scum and should be kept out.
Of course university profs, business elites who want more cheap labor, entertainers and politicians all have the money to insulate themselves against all the negatives that come from importing millions of feral muslims. They live in rich neighborhoods. Their kids won’t be going to school with them, etc. They can scream “racism!” at anybody who objects knowing they’ll never pay any personal cost for their virtue signalling naive idiocy and greed.
She’s the one who gave the green light to them in the first place. Without that there would be no crisis. It’s her fault.
