What is Merkel expecting? A large-scale outbreak of “Islamophobia”?
It is her policies regarding Muslim migrants that makes this necessary. No one, of course, seems to be adding two and two together.
“Report: Germany to require citizens to stockpile supplies in case of catastrophe,” DW, August 21, 2016 (thanks to Larry):
A civil defense plan to be debated by the cabinet would require citizens to stockpile supplies in case of a catastrophe. The plan says people should prepare for an unlikely event that “could threaten our existence.”
For the first time since the end of the Cold War, the German government plans to encourage its citizens to prepare for a catastrophe or an armed attack by stockpiling food, water and other supplies, the “Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung” reported on Sunday.
Citing the government’s “Concept for Civil Defense” paper to be discussed by the cabinet on Wednesday, the government will require people to stock 10 days’ worth of food and five days’ worth of drinking water.
The civil defense strategy would require citizens to have a sufficient supply of food, water, energy, money and medicine to wait out a period until the state would be able to initiate a response to a catastrophe or attack.
A spokesperson from the interior ministry declined to comment on the contents of the paper until a Wednesday press conference.
The 69-page report said an armed attack on Germany was unlikely. However, as a precaution people should “prepare appropriately for a development that could threaten our existence and cannot be categorically ruled out in the future,” FAS quoted the report as saying….

I would hope that the stock plié would include guns and ammo (though I myself do not own any) The rise of demonic islam inside Germany is a direct and existential threat to Germany,
john spielman says
that should be PILE
Custos Custodum says
Putting up a smoke screen about “civil defense” sounds like Step 1 in a simple plan to create (another) civil emergency as a pretext to switch to abolish the remaining forms of democracy and institute rule by decree, i.e. all-out dictatorship.
All these visible efforts mesh closely with recently leaked Soros documents discussing initiatives to promote “government security,” i.e. permanently protecting the government FROM THE PEOPLE.
The next logical step, of course, is the institution of concentration camps, strictly for the General Good, of course.
Carolyne says
Germany has had experience with concentration camps in the past I only hope that this time they get it right and incarcerate those who need to be incarcerated–that is those who feel they have a right to attack non-Muslim women and children and act on it.
gravenimage says
Oh, good grief. The idea that Germany is always on the verge of setting up death camps is just calumny. It is Germans who are threatened by ravening Muslims, not the other way around.
Douglas Brown says
The Earthquake in Italy yesterday is a warning to Europe: that unless Germany, Nato and Obama stop it’s dangerous war provocation against Russia that Europe’s cities will look like the earthquake zone.

I don’t agree what Germany did to the Jews but they should do the same to the muslims because these people are really evil

More of the same. See my above post.

How can you store food when you live in a tiny room and get your food from the food bank ? :((
I bet Erdogan will call his Turks in Germany – they have weapons enough – and we are completely unarmed .
Merkel demands from Turks to stand to Germany – first time she said that !
Nobody is afraid of the Russians though they do Russia and Putin bashing all the time in our media .
j_not_a says
I feel for you. I live in a small apartment also. Try to stockpile cans of food. You can get wire racks that are for storage over the back of doors for vertical storage. Make sure you have at least two manual can openers. Canned meat, fish, ravioli, stew as well as veg and fruit, potatoes, rice pudding, etc. will supply all your basic nutritional needs and if you stack them vertically they will take up minimal space. And can be eaten straight from the can. Or you can get plastic under the bed bins to put cans and packages in.
andra says
The government claims that it is just by chance that these plans come up nowadays.
Intereisting is that they speak of self-defence but ignore that you might need weapons for self-defence if there is a terror Scenario.
In some social networks you can read that they came up with this to prepare the Germans for emergency acts which will allow the government to suspend the next vote coming up in 2017.
The other reason for this could of course be that in Italy and France the street fights have already begun in some parts.
Terry says
Without weapons, you are just collecting supplies for who ever does come knocking that is armed.
Virginia says
Exactly. It’s like pouring starter fluid on the coals for your Bratwurst. When the food runs out in the — strategically placed — “refugee” camps, every German will be a pre-programmed target to plunder. The “fire” will spread pretty fast.
Angemon says
Another thing the Germans are considering is to bring back the draft, although under specific conditions – as a reponse to a state of emergency.
Virginia says
Great idea. The German police are already hiring non-Germans and make no secret of that. Wonder why a huge mob of combat-ready youths has been pouring into Germany lately? Are Germans prepared to fight?

The accompanying photo of this article will be the ultimate symbol of the downfall of Europe and western civilization. It is akin to the image of Neville Chamberlain holding the document that was signed by Herr Hitler but 1000 times worse.

Interesting–thanks. Of note that no Muslims will talk to him–the men are hostile, and the women isolationist or concerned that their husbands will kill them if they talk to an unrelated male.
As for the Infidels, some of them definitely realize that there is a problem, but some seem to accept that Jihad terror is just some sort of fact of modern life–not that it would not be an issue if Merkel had not allowed so many Muslims to flood in.
The most bizarre is the man who describes countries that *don’t* suicidally allow unfettered Muslim invasion as “cowards”. What madness…
billybob says
What struck me while watching that video was the expression “people get the government they deserve”. I expected to see a lot more criticism of Merkel, but instead, I see someone saying she “always knows what’s best”. Maybe it’s true what they say, that Germans are masochists who feel better now they are being overrun by immigrants.
Anne Smith says
What is fairly obvious is that no-one dares say exactly what they think, memories of the Stasi ;perhaps? Or is the Stasi still operational under Merkel?
gravenimage says
Billybob, the guy who said Merkel “always knows what’s best” was being sarcastic, as the film maker notes. This is something.
But still, even among the critics there appears to be no anger or sense of urgency about where Germany is going.
Lexa456 says
Watching this video, can anyone believe, that – statistically (i.e. officialy) – only about 29 percent of German population are of foreign origin? (including migrants from EVERY imaginable Country, such as Russia, Poland, UK, Spain, Italy, Brazil, etc..)? I can not anymore.
Westman says
Muslima: “Not allowed! My husband would kill me.” – as she draws her hand across her throat.
Multiculturalism and Merkel, in concentrated form.
nicu says
Not really – even welfare was cut and you may not have more than 40qm – there’s mass poverty among us Germans , while they build new houses for Muslims and give them everything for free !
The video above – they only show what pleases the government – they don’t show the real opinion of the people ” cos they are all Nazis “
Richard Paulsen says
Diversity they claim. Dividing people without shame. People voting for traditional parties not realizing they are being cheated all the way.

The video above was made by a Brit, not the German government.
Afrostreewise says
God Germany sounds like it’s headed for a coup or civil war with the immigrants. I have no reason to believe a sovereign Nation has hostile intents on such a great power. Responsible governments don’t just speak from the blues- something is probably cooking.
nicu says
I am surprised it has not happen , yet .
But army is doing training for years already to work in germany and that made me suspicious : they say it’s against ” terrorists ” and I bet they don’t mean the Muslims !

‘Adding two and two together’: What do you think? Das ist verboten. Although they have technical terms for it, obviously.
Just like the former eastern state called ‘helping residents to flee their state’ not like that, but ‘staatsfeindlicher menschenhandel’ – maybe something like ‘subversive human trafficking’. Ironically, isn’t this what this former ast german is doing, and in her position of prime minister?!

Germany to require citizens to stockpile supplies in case of “development that could threaten our existence”
……………………..
So much for the idea that Merkel believes that all of these invading Mohammedans are really benign…
Carolyne says
Merkel is herself foreign to the basic German ideal. She was raised in what essentially was a country foreign to West Germany and is now working to make it like her former homeland. It is a pity, because many East Germans lost their lives trying to escape to the West, even digging tunnels with their bare hands. Merkel is handing their country to a foreign entity, one which has little in common with human beings or humane behavior. Germans are highly intelligent people, but mixing them with creatures of low IQ will only result in lowing the common intelligence.
somehistory says
Some questions: What if the person does not have enough money to *stockpile*…is it considered breaking the law?
How will the government prove that the people are stockpiling? Will there be inspections of people’s homes?
If found not to have enough stockpiled, will the person and their family be arrested?
Joe says
They’ve piles of issues there since Merkel:
– No nuclear energy plants so a power outage of weeks could be possible
– Millions of Muslims, civil war likely
– Huge financial issues
– Smart people leaving the country like crazy
I think piling food and ammo for at least 5 years would be more sufficient than just 2 weeks.
somehistory says
Something else is strange: five days of water, ten days of food.
A person can live longer without food than they can without water.
They have water for five days. Run out and then what?
Depend on the government for water?
What freedom will be taken away for water when the five days supply runs out?
Five days later, the food runs out. What then will be required for the people to have food?
The beast of Revelation demands people receive the mark of the beast if they wish to “buy and sell”.
Rufolino says
This food-stockpiling measure may be a deliberate political distraction. Merkel is worried about the emerging effects of her crazy immigrant policy. She might see political catastrophe ahead. So if she can divert unrest up some alley, to partially defuse it, this she might well choose to do.
Guest says
I don’t like where this is going
David says
Here in the U.S.A., Most people I know have been maintaining a supply of emergency good for years.
I myself keep at least a 6 month supply of food/water on hand all the time. Also plenty of defenseive weapons/ammo. When the crash comes, the government’s help is likely to be non-existent!
Carolyne says
I have heard of the existence of FEMA Reeducation Camps for several years. Where are they located? Are Americans already incarcerated in them? What is their purpose? I ma not being sarcastic, I really want to know because if this is true, I can prepare myself and my family.
gravenimage says
Carolyn, this is a conspiracy theory. I’m no particular fan of FEMA, but the idea that Americans are being mass incarcerated in reeducation camps is not happening.
One rumor got started because FEMA stores mobile homes for use as temporary housing after natural disasters likes floods. One such storage facility was assumed to be in use and and the rumor took off.
Popular Mechanics is a trusted publication and has no political ax to grind. Here they are on the subject:

There really are lots of things were should be concerned and even alarmed about; this is not one of them.
