Finally Germany Starts To Fight Back

[Khandro]

Robinson exposes the media for what they are and suggests they have blood on their hands, because of their left biased reporting. These people protesting aren't knuckle-dragging skinheads as you can see in the video, they are simply ordinary Germans who have had enough.
The tide is turning; also this morning, Horst Seehofer of the Bavarian CSU gave a blistering speech attacking the head-in-the-sand government and Merkel's leadership in Berlin.
We've had the Arab Spring, will this be the German Summer?

Certainly an eye opener to what is going on in Germany alone, I wonder why we didn't get to know about it via our media?

But after seeing the reaction of the German media one has to wonder no longer.

Thought-provoking stuff, Khandro.

[jourdain2]

I echo both the above posts.

it is worrying that the German media are seemingly so biased and won't speak with the ordinary people, as you say they are not far right activists.

Bound to happen, they cannot keep the lid on it for ever. I have posted both the following links a few times in the last 6 months and it now appears to be coming to a head.

emmie, I don't think the attitude of the mainstream German media is by any means restricted to Germany. I think we're seeing that pretty much across the board in Europe.

[emmie]

then they have their heads in the sands.

i know that Greeks are getting peed off with the amount of people landing there, and don't know what to do with them, not alone of course, many countries that rely on tourism have complained that there countries are being ruined.

naomi; Yes, I think there is a new mood at large. Meanwhile across the border Macron Vows to Reform Islam in France
"It is time to bring in a new generation." His plan is to ensure that French law takes precedence over Islamic law for Muslims living in the country.
'The plan, as currently conceived, is vague and short on details, but appears to involve three broad pillars: determining who will represent Muslims in France; delineating how Islam in France will be financed; and defining how imams in France will be trained.

French President Emmanuel Macron, in a declared effort to "fight fundamentalism" and "preserve national cohesion," has promised to "lay the groundwork for the entire reorganization of Islam in France."

According to Macron, the plan, similar in ambition to Austria's Islam Law, is aimed at seeking to "better integrate" Islam in France in order to "place it in a more peaceful relationship with the state."

A key priority is to reduce outside interference by restricting foreign funding for mosques, imams and Muslim organisations in France. The plan's overall objective is to ensure that French law takes precedence over Islamic law for Muslims living in the country.'

Khandro, It doesn’t sound to me that Macron’s plans for Islam in France are conducive to better integration. Islam shouldn’t be considered a separate entity or a special case in any way, shape or form.

I will be watching. It could be very interesting.

[fender62]

so are the german media being stifled by merkel ?

[Khandro]

^^ No, they don't need any help.

[ladybirder]

Good. Keep us posted please Khandro.

[woofgang]

For once naomi and I agree. Will he do the same for all religions?

[woofgang]

oops pressed send too soon. I can really see the Roman Catholic Church holding still for that one!

[Khandro]

//Will he do the same for all religions?//

Will he do what for all religions?

[naomi24]

Woofgang, you must have misunderstood me but that aside, why do you think other religions should regarded similarly?

It is not only the German media that is stifled, all those who dare to speak up or report on are stifled.
Laws have been brought in, people have lost their jobs for daring to speak of the problems we now see.
We are even told that they are not all the same, some are radicals and the majority peaceful, which may be correct but there is no way to separate them since it is proven that out of the majority of peaceful ones come the radicals.

[Khandro]

AOG, The problem with the media is that instead of reporting the news and facts they all have an agenda - an in-house message- to put across, those media people Robinson challenged knew days before the went to that rally how they were going to report it.

The examples are endless, but taking last night's coverage by anti-
Brexit Sky News, of Boris' speech, they showed four vox pop interviews, each one denigrating it, followed by a studio interview with one of their 'specialist' reporters who spoke like wise.

Not the slightest attempt (regardless of the speech's content) to give another point of view.
