Chancellor Angela Merkel is telling Germans in her New Year message that their country is stronger than terrorism and the government will do everything to ensure security in freedom.
Merkel said in her annual televised address being broadcast Saturday that 2016 had been a year of severe tests, the toughest of them Islamic extremist terror. She added, however, that she is confident for Germany.
On Dec. 19, 12 people were killed in a truck attack on a Berlin Christmas market. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for that rampage, as it did for two attacks in Bavaria in the summer in which the assailants who came to Germany as asylum-seekers, like the chief suspect in Berlin were killed and a total of 20 people were wounded.

Why do Germans insist on leaders born outside of Germany. Hitler was Austrian, and Merkel is an East German.

Famous last words spoken by Frau Merkel. Beware. The Germans are a dangerous Lot when they put there mind to work. Her time is short, and so are the Muslims. This Nation voted for a Muslim twice. We finally figured it out. The Germans will a also. It won't be pretty through. 😉

“What the hell does that even mean?”
I don’t know but it seems to signal Germany is ripe for the taking.
They won’t fight.
New US territory? European expansion.
We’d be doing them a favor saving them from 50 years of dull blades.

This woman is a mental whack-job.
She is driving past every flashing warning light that is possible.
Wake the hell up Merkel.
Germans, get this person out of power now!

Come on, you can do this! You're stronger than a little bullet, aren't you?

how anyone with 23 hour protection who never has to worry about being raped by a gang of immigrants, in broad daylight, can stand there and say this kind of crap is beyond me-

More appropriate given her East German history:
“I am Erich Mielke, and I approve of this message.”

What terror? Is merkel finally acknowledging terror in Germany? Or is this just another move along moment where she tells the German people to ignore the slaughtering of German citizens at the hands of Muslim immigrants she has invited in?

Her history indicates an unwillingness to wake up.
She’s East German through and through.

I knew a guy who was much stronger than his wife - active duty military who had and used more muscle than I could imagine. He was also beaten repeatedly by his wife. Stronger doesn’t matter unless you know when and how to use that strength. I’m not expecting that to turn out well.
