Germany’s former finance minister Oskar Lafontaine blasted Ms Merkel is a furious tirade in protest against the visit scheduled just four weeks after the shock crash of the currency that took place last week….. Lafontaine demanded an explanation from the chancellor on the state visit, which will also see President Erdogan scoop military honours after seeking financial backing to soothe the nose-dive of the lira…..The state visit has sparked concerns the EU will top up Turkey’s financial losses and open the floodgates to talks over Turkey’s agreement with the EU illegal migration.
Erdogan is an aggressive Islamic supremacist with equally aggressive expansionist ambitions. He and his ilk manipulate many Western leaders to weaken their resistance to Islamization. Most troubling is that since 2007, “Brussels has set aside more than nine billion euros…trying to prepare Turkey to meet the bloc’s standards in crucial areas of governance,” while “failing to attach conditions to the funds, especially after President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s crackdown in the wake of a failed coup in 2016.”
Brussels has been trying to facilitate Turkey’s long-sought full membership in the EU, despite Erdogan’s record. Erdogan continues to blast the West over “Islamophobia” and to accuse the EU of a “crusade against Islam.” Erdogan has also called for an “army of Islam” to attack Israel; a vision of a revived Ottoman empire burns within his soul.
What could possibly go wrong in welcoming Erdogan into the EU?
“Turkey lira CRISIS: Merkel accused of using Erdogan ‘like a BOUNCER’ in furious tirade,” by Carly Read, Express, August 13, 2018:
TURKEY President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s looming state visit to Germany has sparked outrage, with chancellor Angela Merkel being accused of using the leader of the troubled nation as a “bouncer” in order to protect her own policies as the lira crumbles.
Germany’s former finance minister Oskar Lafontaine blasted Ms Merkel is a furious tirade in protest against the visit scheduled just four weeks after the shock crash of the currency that took place last week.
Mr Lafontaine demanded an explanation from the chancellor on the state visit, which will also see President Erdogan scoop military honours after seeking financial backing to soothe the nose-dive of the lira, which dropped a further nine percent today making its total loss a dangerous 40 percent since he was re-elected.
The state visit has sparked concerns the EU will top up Turkey’s financial losses and open the floodgates to talks over Turkey’s agreement with the EU illegal migration.
Mr Lafontaine said: “The federal government must stop supplying Erdogan with weapons.
“And she has to make it clear that she can not support a path towards an Islamist dictatorship in whatever form.”
He added: “German Chancellor Angela Merkel has engaged Erdogan as a bouncer and is now a prisoner of her own policies.”
German Foreign Minister, Heiko Maas, has defended the visit, which will also see President Erdogan be greeted by Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
Mr Lafontaine’s criticisms come after tensions between the US and Turkey caused the lira to plummet to a dangerous low.
Turkey was issued fresh sanctions by US President Donald Trump after the nation continued to trade with Iran, which was also sanctioned in a bid to halt its nuclear weapon programme.
The detention of American pastor Andrew Brunson over a suspected terror coup in 2016 also rocked Turkey’s financial system, triggering a 20 percent tariff on aluminium and 50 percent levy on steel…..

I hope you’re right, Andy.
Sun says
Don’t count on Markus Soeder and Horst Seehofer. Most Germans don’t trust them.
They could have brought Merkel to justice for violating the constituion – but nothing has been done. Both declared that Islam belongs to Germany and Merkel supports their campaign for the upcoming election in Bavaria.
They only serve their own interests.
elee says
Merkel wants to subsidize Turkey, with its Diyanet and Fifth Column and black op imams? Why not just give money to genuine German homebrewed criminals?
balam says
Time has come for the Germans to get rid of Merkel to avoid another world war,
Renate says
Margaret Thatcher didn’t want Germany to re-unite. It looks like she was right.
No Muzzies Here says
Ahhh, the look of love! Here! take this baby chick as a token of my love! (To himself: What a sucker this Merkel is! Doesn’t she know that as soon as Muslims get into power her beloved Germany will be bowing to Mecca 5 times a day yelling “allahu akhbar!”)
Muslim2018 says
This would be the best for Germany ??- to leave disbelief and embrace the truth. I know it pains your heart that all the negative propaganda against Islam and Muslims it still survive and is growing. Allah is truly all powerful.
Giacomo Latta says
He is certainly not all that bright. If he wants us all to live a certain way, why let that slip only to some sexual deviant in the 7th century instead of beaming himself down at halftime of the World Cup final in order to get his message across to as many people as possible? Sounds like he could use a few more neurons.
Carol the 1st says
A typical picture for Merkel. She was practically dancing and high-fiving it with Pope Frankie. So much fun to be the belle of the ball and to have the world see! Especially when you’re with such a sweetheart as Erdogan! She’s having a great time and is just not well.
Carol the 1st says
Without knowing any details yet I’d suspect it’s a sly jab about her managing to “keep afloat”.
Jan says
How much longer do the German people need to suffer this GIGANTIC IDIOT and TRAITOR of their country ??? She needs to be IMPEACHED URGENTLY on charges of HIGH TREASON because she is supporting this dangerous Islamic dictator that has VERY CLEARLY STATED MANY TIMES that he wants to DESTROY our western nations by flooding them with Muslims to establish a kaliphate !!!!!!! #MERKELOUTNOW !!!!!!
Carol the 1st says
She can’t help herself. Can’t you see Angela is a MOTH TO A FLAME.
Carol the 1st says
…and her paramour is telling her that “Everything is JUST DUCKY!”
Ren says
What a pity. Erdogan is asking for money.
Guy Forester says
More actions that prove that Merkel is a Stasi puppet from the depths of the darkest days of the GDR. One dictator supporting another.
People of Germany, wake up and toss this witch out, and don’t forget to toss her broom out with her.
Germany’s current military is apparently becoming a joke (great video someone posted on JW last week). So, to make things better, Frau Crocodile will help the new Pasha and Caliph up arm his new corps of Janissaries.
Brian hoff says
Germany military is in top shape they just donot want to sent they military to fight in against Iran they make than fake video to mislead people.
Michael Copeland says
Merkel arranged massive payments to Turkey supposedly to assist in keeping “refugees”.
Turkey funds the building of a mega-mosque in Maryland.
Perhaps the two matters are related.
Giacomo Latta says
I wonder if her deeply religious Christian minister father is turning over in his grave.
Bev says
I think Merkel is really a communist at heart. She is on a tear to Islamize Europe. Unbelievable. Erdogan wants to be Caliph and his army is already in position. I just hope they don’t call on the United States to bail them out when they find themselves overtaken by Islam.

Erdogan’s visit to Merkel raises concerns EU will aid Turkey financially, “support a path to Islamist dictatorship”
………………
Erdogan has been revealing himself more and more as a thug. The only question here is whether Merkel cares. Probably not.
Ric says
Erdogan is a despot; Fuhrer Merkel and he, share much in common. There is an irony here, in truth numerous ironies, many are historically based. Today, however, is of the most significant concern, as Merkel continues her malevolent and traitorous machination, the destruction of not merely Germany but supposed Western Democracy.
The German electorate has no one to blame but themselves; they have handed this vile leader nine=lives, and she has taken full advantage of their indifference. It is reminiscent of the Germany of 1933; blitzkrieg, lightning does strike the same ‘place’/Germany more than once.
mortimer says
Turks had a choice and choose a fanatical Islamist megalomaniac. Let them drop like a hot potato. If Merkel props up this dictator it’s horrible news for Europe.
She should tell the Turks that Germany wants Turkey to get a wiser leader and a better ally.
Erdogan is an imperialist. How can Europe support the rise of another Ottoman Empire? Absurd.
Brian hoff says
When the Rouge element of the CIA start the fail coup all the opposition party support the current president of Turkey.. The ECU will help Turkey as it is in they interest to do so. Turkey keep IS at bay.
eduardo odraude says
Merkel is so frequently in the wrong place doing the wrong things. I hope the German people vote her and her like out of office soon.
Virginia says
Only about 17% of Germans are voting for the AfD against the Merkel agenda. It’s too little and too late. Most Germans are apathetic, not hungry enough to care or think beyond the state controlled media mind set.
Tom W Harris says
Let’s caption that photo! I’ll start: “If I lend you a million Euros, can I suck you off?”

Merkel is likely doing the bidding of a number of European credit institutions as well (chief among them the odd “German” bank) No doubt they have lent the Turks large sums of money – not exactly what I’d call a wise investment. Merkel and the rest of the weak EU elite have also been pursuing a similar policy to that of ancient Byzantium – pay the barbarians off and hope they go away. This was their first attempt at a “European” policy on immigration after Merkel made her open ended invitation to the people smugglers and once it became clear that not everyone in Europe (not even Germany) was drinking the cool aide. Erdogan has since used the power this has given him over them to get what he wants whenever he wants it – like any good blackmailer.
