Germany prints its constitution in Arabic for refugees to learn

Germany has translated the first 20 articles of the country's constitution, which outline basic rights like freedom of speech, into Arabic for refugees to help them integrate.

Germany is struggling to cope with an expected influx of some 800,000 people this year, both economic migrants and asylum seekers fleeing war in the Middle East and Africa.

Aside from the cost and practicalities of looking after so many people -- almost one percent of Germany's population -- many voters are worried about how they will integrate into society.

Vice-Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel, also chairman of the centre-left Social Democrats (SPD), told Bild daily that refugees were welcome but that they have to make an effort to fit in....

I thought Facebook was where 14-year old girls show pictures of their birthday party.

Can’t speak out against then speak out for, speak out and tell what is the best of German culture and why all should enjoy it. Speak out what is best and let the naysayers be reproached when they speak out negatively. Do the opposite of what they expect, be a Trump-et for good against evil.

That could be a problem also, speaking up for German culture.

Leitkultur, basically meaning the predominant Germanic culture. I remember Friedrich Merz, a former member of the CDU, he said that immigrants in Germany should adhere to “Leitkultur von Deutschland”.

This caused a big debate amongst Germans who want to return to Germany’s traditional Christian values.

The Left and the media went berserk. Merz was turned into a pariah and he retired from politics as a result.

Many members of the CDU-CSU are very angry about this, and they’ve termed it what it is, Communism.

Yeah. The savages are going to stop reading their hatebook and start reading something that tells them that they have to obey the law of the country and stop chopping heads.

Like the other freeper said, better to publish sharia in german so Germans can see how hateful it is.

Hans-Joachim Maaz - one of Germany’s leading psychiatrists, has now pointed out what many believe is behind Merkel letting the Muslim horde in.

She’s a childless woman, these are the children she’s never had. The woman has deep psychological issues and needs to be removed from office, forcibly if need be.

Merkel’s PERSONAL complex due to being childless, in NO way should be a reason for her to FORCE suicide on the German nation and it’s people.

Hans-Joachim Maaz has correctly stated that Merkel is taking a Mother role, a role she strives for and as such she THINKS this protects her from ALL criticism. Well it doesn’t and her dropping poll numbers prove that it hasn’t.

Maaz also says that Merkel turning up to have selfies taken with migrants is part of her need to be a Mother, that this shows a complete lack of distance from her “children”. That therefore in a NORMAL politician this distance is something that all politicians try to maintain.

Merkel is totally f-cked up in the head, she needs to be removed. I don’t know whether she chose not to have children or if she has a problem that prevented her from having children of her own.

The fact is, it’s NOT the German nation nor the German peoples’ fault, they should not have to suffer for countless decades because Merkel has a Mother Complex because she’s barren.

She must have carried this complex for decades and kept it internal, but this Migrant Crisis has finally brought the complex out into the open and it’s now very dangerous.

She’s unfit to be the leader of any nation, she’s psychologically damaged and they need to throw her overboard ASAP.

Austrian Vice-Chancellor Reinhold Mitterlehner’s conservative Austrian People’s Party (ÖVP), has threatened to quit Austria’s Grand Coalition unless the SPÖ who he’s in the Grand Coalition with don’t toughen policies on the Muslim hordes.

The ÖVP has 51 seats, the SPÖ has 52 seats.

Will Austria’s Government fall first....then Germany’s?

“Singer Bono congratulated Merkel on ‘the “kind of leadership we haven’t seen on the global stage for a long, long time”.

“The fact she’s taking selfies with refugees shows there’s a lack of distance - a distance that a politician should maintain.”

I mean, who in their right mind would want any sort of endorsement from Bono?

The man not only is grotesquely irritating, he’s also in love with the sound of his own voice.

“For patriotic Germans who don’t want their country turned into an Islamic Republic, they have no freedom of speech. Merkel has taken it off them.”

In 6 months or less, Merkel will be the most unpopular German in Germany : )

““Singer Bono congratulated Merkel on ‘the “kind of leadership we haven’t seen on the global stage for a long, long time”.

I wonder how many Muzzie refugees Bono has on his ranch in Ireland? (Tax dodge)

Isle of Man? (best tax dodge)

I’d say zero, Bono is a typical example of a Leftist hypocrite.
