Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto announced that Hungary would seal its border with Croatia at midnight. He said the EU summit in Brussels did not make progress on the refugee issue on Thursday (specifically on a plan backed by Hungary to send EU forces to block migrants from reaching Greece), leaving Hungary with the need to protect its own borders. It will install two transit zones where travelers can be checked and, if permitted, be allowed to enter at official crossing points.

Bavarian CSU Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann and Prime Minister Horst Seehofer jointly call for a halt to refugees crossing at the Austrian-German border, October 8, 2015.

How they howl when they hear the term “self-defense” used by a German politician. Germany is obviously not allowed to defend herself since the military capitulation of 1945.

Bavaria's cabinet met Friday morning and supported the possibility of taking the federal government to the Constitutional Court if it did not agree to turn refugees back at the Austrian border as an “emergency measure.” Earlier Bavarian president Horst Seehofer had put it this way to the Bild newspaper: "There will come explicit measures of self-defense to limit immigration, such as turning back people at the Austrian border."

Such wording set off alarm bells throughout the controlled German media. The Süddeutsch Zeitung wrote:

While Angela Merkel made it clear in a TV talk show interview Wednesday night that her government will not "freeze" the refugee inflow at a particular number, saying it is "not possible" to do so, the governor of Bavaria and leader of her sister party, the CSU (Christian Social Union), Horst Seehofer (pictured above), is meeting with his cabinet tomorrow to organize something of a revolt.

Seehofer and his party, and even some key members of Merkel's party, the CDU (Christian Democratic Union), take a more realistic approach to the refugee invasion and are questioning Merkel's leadership on this issue.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel as Mother Theresa - turning Germany into a place of hope for all the world's refugees from war, poverty and just plain bad luck. 1.5 million expected this year. Spiegel cover

Carolyn Yeager looks at what's being called the European “Migrant Crisis” (a self-made crisis) in terms of its origins: the false historical narrative perpetrated by the Allied victors in 1945. Lies always have their consequences. Topics include:

• Germany's Chancellor Mutti Merkel seeks the moral high ground for her own image, but puts the German people and nation in jeopardy;
• Irishman Peter Sutherland, called the Father of Globalization, preaches that European prosperity = multiculturalism;
• European Central Bank VP Vitor Constancio: Low birth rate in Europe makes immigration essential … (but why then the high unemployment?);
• The United Nations and the Nuremberg Tribunals used the false concept of “International Law” to support dictatorial one-world polices of the US/UK/USSR/Jewish elites;
• Winston Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt were warmongers who conspired to bring about world carnage tor spurious reasons;
• A major integrated movement to salvage and broadcast our true history is the best way forward. 1hr7min

A protest march on September 9 in Riesa featues a banner demanding an end to asylum abuse - will this become a "hate crime?"

In light of Globalist Elites' concern for attacks against refugees, Germany has introduced stricter laws on “racist violence.” The new laws, which went into force in August, include granting greater powers to federal prosecutors in cases of “hate crimes.”

A “hate crime” is one with a racist motivation, and carries heavier penalties than a similar non-racist crime.

So will the raping of a native-born German woman by a black resident or refugee be considered a “hate crime” because of it's racist overtones? Why even ask such a question. Look to Sweden. It will be up to German women to "cover up."

Beyond heavier punishment, the prosecutors will be able to intervene earlier in investigating crimes “where racism or xenophobia are suspected” to have been in play. And they will also have the power to launch joint operations with other German states.

Hans-Georg Maassen, Germany's domestic intelligence chief, warned Sunday of a radicalisation of right-wing groups, not about the public disorder and law-breaking of migrants.

German President Joachim Gauck has warned of Germany's "finite capacity" to absorb refugees, cautioning against more "tensions between newcomers and established residents". But he's not putting up any resistance that we can notice.

No, according to the AFP he said: “Given the rapid influx," the government must now "promote the construction of apartments and build schools, hire teachers and kindergarten staff, adjust the labour market and vocational training, teach the German language and German law -- and do all of that at the same time".

Seems the government of Merkel and Gauck is in danger of resurrecting the idea of the  “Aryan Superman” with this kind of talk. It's pretty obvious, even to those less intelligent than Germans, that every nation has a finite capacity due to it's finite space and resources. Still, Domestic Spy Chief Hans-Georg Maassen acknowledged that Germany “expects” up to one million so-called migrants this year, and is doing nothing to stop them. The fact that they are 70% young, highly-sexed unmarried men is never mentioned, nor that it's commonly known that because of Chancellor Merkel's “open-door” welcoming statements, millions more Syrians and other Arabs have decided to try journeying on up to Europe.

From Reuters:

The right-wing opposition Alternative for Germany (AfD) party said on Monday Germany should shut its borders to asylum-seekers who want to enter via safe third countries, as well as reinstate border controls to stem a record influx of refugees.

The AfD, which is hovering between 3 and 4.5 percent in opinion polls, issued a proposed program that stipulates: "The right to apply for asylum in Germany should be revoked."

To "bring the asylum chaos under control", the AfD proposal said asylum seekers would have to apply in German embassies in their countries of origin or to EU or U.N. institutions. If war or other circumstances made that impossible, they would have to go to a German embassy in a neighboring country.

Any attempts to apply for asylum at German borders should be rejected and the people concerned refused entry, the AfD said. This is the illegal decision Angela Merkel made, to allow these foreign invaders to simply crash into Germany and she will allow many to remain. Where is the rule of Law?

Is this not a grotesque image? The soft and squishy twin 'puppets' - communist French President Hollande and globalist Chancellor Merkel - are "leading Europe" in developing "a unified system for the right to asylum." The Right to Asylum?? Who voted on that right?

The Merkel-Hollande press conference took place Monday because the two "leaders" are caught in a total bind due to their professed dogma that Europe is an open, multiculural continent. Well, a lot of folks are taking them up on that this summer. But many EU countries don't want to be open and multicultural. So things are not going too smoothly.

Earlier, Merkel over-reacted to criticism from the left for not dealing forcefully enough against the anti-migrant sentiment in her country.

The "Birthplace of Democracy" theme has become a political trap.

Everything is political … as I have recognized and repeatedly said for a while now.

The Greek euro crisis and collapse was inevitable since it was an impossible union to begin with. Greece was allowed into the Euro Group in 2001 for political reasons, when the economic data was screaming against it.

The director of an American-based 'think tank' has expressed this in her own words on a recent radio program. Heather Conley, director of the Europe program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said the Euro currency project “was a structually flawed project” from the start because it was designed POLITICALLY with the purpose of uniting Europe.

"They were warned about it. This was an economic project designed politically to make Europe more united. But instead it’s pulling Europe apart.”
