In what has to be considered an historic about face, German Chancellor Angela Merkel announced that 100,000 migrants who recently arrived in Germany would be deported.
For more than a year following the massive tide of humanity that flooded into Germany from Africa and the Middle East, Merkel stoutly defended her open border policy as being consistent with western values. A million migrants later, and a huge voter backlash due to overburdened local governments and a sky rocketing crime rate, Merkel has changed her tune.
Sunday Express:
The beleaguered Chancellor said authorities would significantly step up the rate of forced returns as she battles to arrest an alarming slump in her popularity which has fuelled a surge in support for the far-right.

They should call the bluff, deport first, before the election! Always remember there is a public and a private position on the issues!
Makes an even bigger joke of Obama's last "Bash America and Trump Tour"
She changed her tune because there’s an election coming up. Just like Hellary, it’s all about her and her power.
In my opinion, much of this is due to the fact that her mentor bammy is leaving the scene, and Trump is coming in. bammy told her to bring in millions of “migrants” and Trump is opposed.
My opinion.
Trying to save her political ass! Too late, me thinks!
Too little, too late, Frau Blueker.
Neigh!!! Neigh!!! Neigh!!!
No doubt she still believes that. However, "what's good for Angela" trumps "western values."
Exactly what I was thinking. Although anyone with half a brain should ask why Middle Eastern countries don’t want any of them?
It is hard to blame people for stupidity when their mainstream media lies to them 24-7.
I believe that the vast majority of people are opposed to mass immigration (legal or illegal) once they fully understand all of its short and long term implications.
How about that, looks like John McCain is consulting with the Merkel campaign.
Now she is investigating Nazis in the Bundesregierung.
What a plan: the Merkel - Obama country killer. Two sick people with giant chips on their shoulders seek revenge on all the good hardworking people of their countries in the name of western values.
“The polls in Germany must not be looking too good for Merkel.”
It’ll probably be like John McCain’s “Just build the damn fence.” Forgot all about at after the election.
Exactly.....
Three hundred thousand would be a better start.
the CDU has been consistent that it estimates about 1/3 of the refugee will be deported
Merkel stoutly defended her open border policy as being consistent with western values.
Open borders are consistent with Western values, i.e. Judeo-Christian-Classical values, when the border is only open to those who share Western values, which many elites in the West do not.
Any other is suicide and suicide has not been a Western value since 476 AD.
Turkey said it’s sending more ,many more
Merkel wants to close the barn door after the horse has bolted - it’s too late - the damage is done.
Germans should vote her out... the only people Merkel cared about were German elites and their great need to have more than two mansions. She’s disgusting.
