What will this situation look like in five years? Ten? Twenty? But anyone who expresses concern is a greasy Islamophobe. Sharia Germany will be benign, tolerant, peaceful and wonderful for everyone. Won’t it?
“‘We feel like foreigners’: Mother in Germany on son’s daycare where ‘2 out of 25 speak German,'” RT, August 28, 2018:
In a polarizing viral video with almost 2 million views, the mother of a 3-year-old boy complains that her son cannot socialize with other kids in a public nursery, as only two out of 25 can speak German.
In a Facebook video post filmed on August 15, the mother, Leen Kroetsch, takes aim at German politicians for what she claims is a botched immigration policy which is forcing her 3-year-old, who has no immigrant background, to adjust to an alien environment in the daycare center.
Kroetsch claims that out of 25 children, her son’s group consists of only two without an immigrant background and who can speak German fluently, while the other 23 are unable to understand German at all. At the same time, these other children, according to Kroetsch, can easily communicate with each other while speaking in their mother tongues, which her son obviously does not speak.
“My son must adapt to other children. This isn’t integration, dear politicians, integration is a bit different,” Kroetsch says.
The woman also expressed outrage at the fact she had to win the right to send her boy to the daycare center in court, saying she almost lost her “existence” job as a result.
She claims that her son’s case is not an exception and is rather commonplace in Essen, the fourth largest city in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, noting that her friend’s child is also one of only two in his class who do not have an immigrant background.
Kroetsch says she is concerned not only about the present situation and the well-being of her 3-year-old, but also about the future – in which she fears her son might feel like a foreigner in his own country.
“I’m scared, I’m scared for my son’s future and I do not know what to expect next. My son and I feel here like foreigners. Was that intended?” she said, adding that she might be “forced to immigrate someday” herself.
The woman said that although her child was granted a place in a daycare center, she had to fight the center in court, while parents “of Muhammad, of Ali, and as they are all called” don’t have to….

Thanks to Madam Angela.
Roger woodhouse says
Madam Merkel has no children of her own so why should she be bothered.In fact she has nothing invested in her own country of the kind that you have.She should hang along with the other members of her party for the tragedy that is unfolding in Germany
gravenimage says
There are people who do not have children–or have been unable to have children–who still care about the children of others and their future. Merkel should care about *all* of Germany’s children.
Rarely says
Too bad her parents had children.
Frank Anderson says
Rarely “Truer words have never been written”. Think about all the rabidly pro-abortion people who would probably squeal with approval for *post-birth* abortion who are complaining about taking children away from criminals. “liberals”/Totalitarians are not burdened by consistency.

David M says
Yes, I hope this lady didn’t vote for Merkel. The solution is to start voting for the AfD party.
ronyvo says
I have the feeling that she did vote for the crazy Merkel. But, if she haven’t the majority of the Germans did AND that is my point. one gets the consequence of utter ignorance. Muslims do just that. Educate yourselves read the Islamic history. It is all there.
I am here as a living of Islamic history. I am a Copt (the original citizens Christian citizens of
Egypt). Our language is the Coptic language, yet I can hardly speak it, I speak Arabic. Because, when the Muslims invaded Egypt the Muslim ruler ordered any one who speaks Coptic cut his/her tongue. THIS IS EXACTLY THE ISLAMIC WAY. Brutality, barbaric, inhumanity in short criminality is Islam.
You are in the way to be like us THE COPTS. That is if you submit to the Islamic invasion which are taking place under the dubious cover of ‘refugees.
gravenimage says
Actually Ronyvo, the majority of Germans *did not* vote for Merkel–she only won because the opposition vote was fragmented.
I respect you as a Copt–that they have prevailed and survived Muslim persecution and violence over the past 1300 years is a testament to your courage.
Giacomo Latta says
As I understand it, Copt is the most modern version of the Egyptian language. But with islam you only have to be the tiniest bit different to be scimitar fodder. And everyone rejecting islam is called a racist for doing so, when they do not say men are in charge of women, men may beat their wife (wives), Jews, Christians (mithraist or otherwise), muslims, etc., etc. (huge differences) as the koran insists.
Ferd III says
This woman had to fight the daycare center in court to get her boy in – but not the Moslems. Oh no. They were courted and begged to deploy their young Ghazi into the center no doubt.
This is the destruction of Germany.
I see the same in the UK. Most Youth football teams in London are Black, Moslem, Arab – you rarely see a team with a majority of white boys on it.
Leftards dance with glee at the eradication of European culture. Anyone with a brain should lament and get busy with stopping said destruction.
Islam is a fascism and has much in common with Nazism – a fact lost on Angular Jerkel and her globalist, ignorant, immoral, ridiculous cult.
Baucent says
Well said.
margaret Robinson says
Exactly right but do the peoples of europe know she is working for a nwo where nation states no longer exist. A mixed race population submissive and obedient to their masters. The secularism pushed by the left destroyed christanity but islam is too strong to be destroyed so it will be used as the sole religion to control people. It is the perfect totalitarian tool. That is why it is protected and cultivated. Merkel has signed agreements with 54 african and 7 middle east countries with the intension of producing more immigration. Google barcelona declaration, Mediterranean Agreement, eu African agreement and marrakesh agreemen There is no doubt.
Susan B says
Margaret, Christianity has not been destroyed and in fact is growing exponentially especially in many islamic countries. The globalist can not destroy God so they will fail. Islam however is a lie built on lies and truth is what will destroy it.
David says
The woman probably had to fight in court to get her some into the daycare centre because obviously places were very hard to come by. She now realises her fight was a mistake.
Can anyone tell me anything good about Islam? I won’t hold my breath waiting for an answer. To say what is bad about Islam would fill many books, starting with the Koran, the Hadith, Reliance of the Traveller. I can’t think of the others but there are several.
Frank Anderson says
David, my weak attempt at humor, some people are happy to see me walk in, and others are happier to see me leave. I think I would be happy to see islam leave. That is the only good thing I can think of at the moment.
J D S says
Dear German Mothers…well maybe all European Mothers,,…Do everything possible to keep your dear children from coming in contact with these Muslim immigrants..
At a young age is where Islam is being indoctrinated into the European children..Oh one might say ..what could these tender migrant children do to influence their child…Well indoctrination is part and parcel of the Islamic road to total Islamism of the world..Don’t be fooled…Islam uses its children for all purposes even to strapping bombs to them and using them as a human IED.
Cicero says
In Hackney London UK it is not uncommon to see hijabbed niquabbed and burkhaed women all in black shepherding files of small white children in the street (probably nursery workers ) or pushing individual white children in prams/strollers (probably paid nannies).
It is astonishing to see how Leftard parents are subjecting their defenceless and vulnerable children to their Islamo-loving principles

Agreed, J D S and Cicero.
mortimer says
Well, they are, in fact, “FOREIGNERS resident in Germany” and they will remain “FOREIGN” as long as they do NOT ASSIMILATE.
MIGRATION without ASSIMILATION is INVASION.
The European says
Exactly! A migrant who refuses to assimilate behaves like a colonizer who tries to foist his code of conduct on the indigenous population. We had large-scale immigration before 2015, but those migrants mostly came from European countries -Italy, Spain, Greece, Poland…they adapted well, they were hard-working people, most of them were law-abiding, and even the Turks who came to Germany in the sixties assimilated. Everything changed when reislamisation started in the eigthies, and the the more powerful Islam became, the more disruptive became German society as a whole. Rules and principles which have been observed for centuries, giving cohesion and stability to human societies are being flouted, brushed aside, discarded. In our dystopian society everything is upside down, wrong is right, black is white, justice is a joke, unvetted Immigration is rampant, a barbaric cult which doesn’t respect the most basic rules of human decency is tolerated, crime rates are going up, and lies, lies, lies. from the government, from the media, from the churches… you name it Truly, this is not a country where children can grow up happily and safely..

I am convinced the German elections are being rigged to keep Merkel in. She is causing more damage than Adolf but she is the figurehead and so vital to the globalists Kalergi Plan. At the current rate, The indigenous Germans will be replaced in about another 3 generations, the new populace will turn on new minority and there will be total chaos, civil war and death. Their only hope is AfD but there would have to be a huge shift in voting to counteract rigging and postal votes.
gravenimage says
In the last election more people voted for other candidates than for Merkel.
The problem is that the opposition vote was splintered.
Frank Anderson says
Honored GI, I think there were about 30 parties campaigning in Germany prior to Hitler’s rise. Then there was only one.
gravenimage says
True enough, Frank. I never said it was wise that the German vote was so fragmented; just noted that this had occurred.
Even though so many do not support Merkel, she may continue to win under these circumstances, which would be a disaster for Germany.
Frank Anderson says
GI, it continues to amaze me how often Jorge Santayana’s quote is demonstrated true. Issue after issue, repeat after repeat, the truth of the statement is overwhelming. I don’t know if he originated the quote or just made it well-known. Many people only learn by pain and hardship instead of experience.
BTW, my “commander in chief”, no doubt in my mind the greatest blessing I have received since life itself, tells me she studied both Latin and German and was considered for a job to translate German technical manuals when a better job was offered.
gravenimage says
You are spot on about the quote about history repeating itself. We never seem to learn–or only a few do.
And your wife is clearly far more fluent in German than myself. I also studied a bit of French.
David says
Do they have voting in the German parliament? If so why do the other party is not vote against Merkel’s policies? I guess being in a coalition government gives her enough votes to outvote the opposition parties.
Voytek Gagalka says
Taking into consideration that those immigrant children are actively DISCOURAGED at home to learn the host language, boosted all the time that they are allegedly so “superior” to Kafirs, Germans will have no other choice but to learn THEIR language (Arabic) and assimilate to them, i.e. accept supremacy of sharia (Islam), Q.E.D.. And BTW, that is precisely what was designed and what is DESIRED by the current German authorities.
margaret Robinson says
Plus 2 But only you can change it. People must try to develop the courage and confidence to fight for their homeland and for goodness sake do not vote for ANY left wing party. You must draw strength from each other so googld and print off the documents I have mentioned. Give copies to people or get them to google. They are eu official documents so you cannot be accused of racism or false informationyes
Notmoron says
I can bet for sure that the Elite children are not near those schools.
lebel says
The rule is to speak German so the kindergarten teachers have to only speak German to the kids. There is no need to adjust to them, they will pick it up quickly.
Also not all these kids speak the same language, some will speak Turkish, others Arabic, others French (west africans) so there is no lingua franca among them in any case.
Susan B says
So all is well in Germanstan, lebel? Think again. I wonder how long before the girls are segregated to some shed away from the superior boys and forced to wear slave scarfs because your allah so hates females.

Lebel you know that islam is the problem and wherever this islamic rape and murder cult is practiced you have death and destruction. When you do not cut out the cancer of islam in any civilized country soon it will have only islamic law and all non muslims will now be second class with no democratic rights. It always amazes me how quickly mohammedans like you resort to profanity when these simple truths are pointed out.
So Lebel, please enlighten me and show any islamic country that does hate and treat women and non muslims as second and third class citizens. If you look at your islamic hell holes, not only do they treat non muslims as outcasts but they are murdering them at an alarming rate. All islamic hell holes were civilized countries at some point before muslims invaded and converted by the sword and rape jihad. Islam grew by convert or die and rape jihad and muslims are not about to change their game plan after it has worked so well for 1500 years.
At what point will your muslim brothers start to convert by the sword in the free countries they have invaded; you have already been practicing rape jihad. allah has made very clear what you as a muslim are commanded to do, so practicing your taqiyya on a site that is well versed on islamic doctrine is a waste of time. islam will lose in the end, God has decreed it, but how much rape and murder most the free world suffer before that glorious day. When the globalist tossed God to the curb we ended up with weak nations that are lost without a moral compass. Thankfully people are beginning to turn back to God. Embracing God is what will destroy your pagan moon god allah.

Lebel, I lived in Islamic countries. Twice, I just managed to escape from being raped. For most women Islam is no fun.
If people choose to live under Islamic law in their own country, I can accept that decision. But why should I respect that in the Western World? Why should I respect Muslims when the majority hates us people with other beliefs?
Why don’t they just stay in one of the 57 Islamic countries where they can live a halal life with their own fellows and do not have to fear Islamophobia?

……………………………….
The idea that it is “nazi shit” not to want those intent on violently imposing Shari’ah law on us to continue to flood into our nations is grotesque.
Their speaking another language and often refusing to learn the language of their host nation is–as I have noted elsewhere on this thread–a very minor aspect of Muslims’ refusal to integrate into the countries that have given them sanctuary.
Far more concerning is their embracing a creed that teaches them to brutalize and murder Infidels, and force us to submit to Islam.
Many who have come to the West from elsewhere have spoken other languages–this is not a problem where those immigrants embrace the civilized cultures of their hosts and want to become Westerners themselves.
I have worked with teaching immigrants to read through the Oakland Library’s adult literacy program and California Conservation Corps’ GED program–including immigrants from Mexico, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, and El Salvador. For many of these people, English was not their first language. I have also worked with African Americans, Native Americans, American Hispanics, and Roma. I was, in fact, awarded a city-wide commendation for my work with this first group. Does that sound like something a Nazi would do?

No one, of course, should be surprised that lebel has nothing critical to say about the abuse of women. Why would he?

The idea that he is “not allowed” to reply to posters critical of him is also absurd. In combing back through the comments archives, one would find scores of instances of his having done so to comments of mine alone.
lebel appears to have completely lost it at this point, spouting profanity and screeching about “nazis”. Disturbing but hardly surprising.

Good point! There are at least 56
Muslim countries in the OIC. However, rich ones like Dubai,
Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab
Emirates, Kuwait and others discriminate against lower IQ, dark skinned Muslims from Africa and counties ending in xxxstan. Stupid Socialist & Democratic governments turn a blind eye to deception and taqiyya. Dental records show the approximate age of molars and wisdom teeth! Stupid Swedes & Germans allow young men pretending to be minors to attend high schools without verifying their true biological ages! And turn a blind eye to rapes and molestation of children!!! Young military age men are fleeing to Europe for economic and sexual motives. They are too poor to pay engagement money to a bride’s family. Since Muslim men can have 4 wives, the older, more affluent ones get first dibs. Islam is not compatible with Western civilizations!!! It’s a totalitarian ideology hiding behind 7th century beliefs! We have enough native born liars and criminals to reek havoc on us. We don’t need more rapes, stabbings, assaults, nor misogynistic & superiority attitudes from third world Muslims! Do not tolerate the intolerable!
Westman says
I see a bright side to this, perhaps a little tongue-in-cheek.
This child, being of an age where language is easily aquired, may aquire several ME dialects and grow up to serve in the German Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA), the equivalent of the US FBI.
As we have seen, all too well, the failures of our intelligence agencies is directly related to not knowing the true culture of ME Muslim nations because they don’t know the cultural nuances of the language – and won’t even believe it when an organization like MEMRI makes the translation.
Roger woodhouse says
But we do know enough about these ME muslim countries.We know the chaos they reek .We know their attitude to us unbelievers.We know that due to their religion they can never accept the type of ‘democracy’we are used to.We also know that they have been taught(brainwashef) to hate us and that their ultimate aim is to conquer the West and impose sharia law here.Now the big question is.’Why are our governments assisting them to do this??
gerard says
Roger ’Why are our governments assisting them to do this??”
Because they hate western culture built on Judaism and Christianity. They are happy to see Christianity being replaced by islam and are doing everything they can to bring about this replacement though hate speech laws, which gag any criticism of islam and immigration from muslim lands.

Skip the Muzzies for a moment.
Reality is that the race between High German and Low German is over and Low German won.
Yes, English is a Low German Language and is a spin off of Ost Saterland Frisian with a lot of Old Danish Norse and Old Norman French thrown in.
I read that some German schools are starting the kids out speaking English.
Just have all the kids speak English.
gravenimage says
I don’t want to see the German language destroyed.
And, of course, this goes beyond language, in any case–this is about both the overwhelming influx of immigrants–mostly Muslims–and their refusal to integrate into the societies that take them in. Really, language is the least of it, given the vicious tenets of Islam, which are completely at odds with civilized values.
Frank Anderson says
GI, what do you think about having until recently a single common language in the US? I look to the north and watch the bs in Canada about every government “official” being required to speak English and French, and in Louisiana where French has been a chain around the state for 200 +/- years. Search CODAFIL. The US is rapidly coming to English/Spanish. I believe I read Los Angeles schools have to teach in an incredible number of languages to meet federal standards. I’ve had enough trouble with one human language. Computer languages are different to me. for some reason they all seem the same with minor differences. The commercial advantage of a common language is demonstrated that all air traffic control is in English, for example.
For the record, I barely passed 2 years of German in high school and have spent much time since reading German history. . . in English.
gravenimage says
Hi Frank. I am no fan of the phenomenon of creeping Spanish here in the US–it is a problem here in California. But there have been other languages spoken here besides English at various times, including French, Spanish, and German.
But certainly, a nation divided by language can face some pretty serious problems–although this varies, Belgium, with two languages, has more problems than Switzerland with four.
And if I were to move to Germany–or any nation–the first thing I would do is properly learn the language. (I do speak some German, but am hardly fluent). Of course, a lot of well-educated Germans also speak English–but I would not expect this. You cannot really become part of a culture unless you speak the language.
That so many Muslims are not doing so is a part of their refusal to integrate. If these children and their parents were eagerly learning German, it would be a different matter.
I was not minimizing the importance of language–just noting that the problem with violent supremacist Muslims goes beyond this.
Frank Anderson says
GI, this is a sincere compliment you have earned in all our conversations. You have the class to understand the statement “When in Rome. . .” and how to be a good and harmonious part of a community you join, either temporarily or permanently. Nothing I can see in islam teaches or practices anything we would consider “class”.

gravenimage says
Yes–I read Old English. One can really see the language’s German roots there.
gravenimage says
“Germanic” would be more accurate.
The European says
Well, it’s a bit more complicated than that. English belongs to the group of West-Germanic languages, that’ correct, and its vocabulary is principally made up of Old Anglo-Saxon, Old Norse, Old Frisian mixed up with Norman French and some Latin. But the English language has evolved throughout the centuries. Modern English would be incomprehensible to someone who spoke Old English or Middle English. There are huge diffences in terms of grammar, syntax, semantics, and pronounciation. Think about Grimm’s law and the Great Vowel Shift of the 15th century. Even Shakespeare’s English requires some study if you want to understand it properly. German also underwent changes in the course of its history ,Lower German and Old Frisian have become local variants of German, High German won the battle. High German started to evolve with the emergence of Old High German, Middle High German and New High German, the language of Martin Luther and his translation of he Bible which contributed copiously to its flourishment. English is now a kind of “lingua franca,” spoken by millions all over the world. My niece attends high school, and some school matters like biology, geography and art education are exclusively taught in English. Being a fourteen-year old girl, she has almost acquired as much fluency as I have. The teaching of English at German schools should be encouraged and if German childen grow up bilingually, that’s fine with me, provided that they don’t neglect their mother tongue.

They say that Muslims don’t want to integrate. Well from my point of view, I don’t want them to integrate either. They should definitely be kept apart from everyone except themselves. Their religion is so bad, that they actually hate each other (Sunni and Shia in particular) apart from hating everybody else.
I am wondering why the world does not wake up to what is going on. There are some encouraging signs in Germany and Sweden, but elections will tell if the time is now.Sweden’s result is expected tonight.

Kids are pretty good at picking up different languages if they get enough exposure. As long as the teachers speak German (only) there should be no harm. They’re only three year olds – they adjust an awful lot better than us old fogies.

Don’t misunderstand me — I think the situation is deplorable. It was, however, inevitable and it shouldn’t hurt the kids.
We have a very diverse populace where I live, and always have. Many of the people I know spoke little, if any, English when they started school. French, German, Ukrainian Yiddish or Italian was spoken at home by immigrant parents. Everybody picked up a bit (sometimes a lot) of each.
Today its more far eastern language groups — Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Vietnamese etc. and, of course, Arabic.
The language is not the problem. Don’t we wish it was that simple?
BTW Frank. Be grateful you didn’t need to learn Latin.
Susan B says
Rarely the point you seem to miss is that language is not the problem, islam is. Until islam is eradicated from the civilized world there will be no peace or civilization in the west. Women and girls will always fear have to suffer rape jihad, and men murder jihad.
Frank Anderson says
Rarely, we had an outstanding teacher of Latin at my military school. Somehow I was able to avoid the 3 year sequence. I have a friend who has done heroic service in the military who took most or all of that sequence. The teacher said of him, Latin is a dead language and Garet killed it!
We had an Asian family locally who ran a really good seafood restaurant with 2 kids worth highest praise. The kids would come in and work with their parents, speaking better English than I. The parents sold the place when both kids went to college. They were and are here to be citizens of the US, not invaders to bring a foreign whatever and cram it down our throats. Islam is not here or anywhere else to assimilate. It is everywhere to conquer and take us back to the 7th Century.

I admit to being one of those who killed Latin. Today I’m often accused of murdering English.
I hope the German kids aren’t too negatively affected by the immigrant kids.

From Masonic ritual, not believed to be secret: “Faith ends in knowledge. Hope ends in fruition. But Charity extends beyond the grave.” I sincerely question how one can hope for something that goes totally contrary to every teaching and practice for 1400 years. In all of the Islamic invasions there has never been one where the invaders assimilated. Please consider Viktor Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning where he discovered and explained the “delusion of reprieve”. From Jewish teaching, certainly not secret, “Pray as though everything depends on God; Act as though everything depends on us.” Most of the time I think God works through us. With sincere courtesy and respect.

My eldest is due to start school soon and we moved further out from the city centre, so he could go to a school where the majority of pupils are still white British and he will feel at home. All the schools near where we used to live he would be in the minority as an English-speaker. The impact on the teacher and the ability for everyone to learn at the same pace together just doesn’t even bear thinking about 🙁
But of course we must accept this diversity and adjust our lives accordingly!
Michael Copeland says
This process is called Native Drive-Out.
margaret Robinson says
Wrong we must never accept it. Read the illusion of diversity by Ed West. Human genes through 1000,s of years have dictated that humans prefer to be among their own. You say things like this but give a free card to muslims setting up their own state within a state. They are the guests so why dont you tell them to be diverse. Why is it only white people who must be pushed under this umbrella. 1 million polish people now live in england. The majority have set up paraell societies to accomodats polish people. They pretty much took over small towns and villages where shops and language are all polish. These people are no problem and fit in well with our culture but again your post on diversity applies only to the hosts welcoming these people. The host country must be diverse but those who come get a free card to stick with their own. Why are they not made to diversify in small numbers throughtout the country. Because they want to stick with their own but when the host asked for the same freedoms they are classes as racist bigots etc.
Ragdoll says
All valid points Margaret, but it’s a real shame that you didn’t pick up on my sarcasm….
gerard says
Margaret There are many Polish shops where I live. Nearly all the Poles I’ve met speak English very well. I like the Poles: They learn English, they work hard and they don’t want to cut my head off!
Frank Anderson says
Back in 1994 I played guardian angel for 27 college juniors in the US for a year from many countries of the “former Soviet Union”. Their English was at least as good as mine with 22 years of classroom education. There were diverse personalities displayed, but the good outweighed the “deficient”. It was a pleasure to treat them the way I would want my son or daughter treated 6,000 miles from home. It is hard to believe they are now in their 40’s and 50’s.

I have no idea if this is Merkel or just someone who superficially resembles her. I really don’t care all that much if middle-aged ladies dance around in inappropriate bathing suits or not, either.
What I care about is allowing the flood of violent supremacist Muslims into Europe.
kouldb says
Well you kept voting for Merkel et al. All of you. And in the process, you have not only destroyed your own nation. But Europe as well. Yet again, Germans have unleashed another genocide across Europe. I have zero pity for any of you at this stage. You should have thought about who & what you were voting for all these years. A vote the rest of Europe didn’t even get a chance to make.
margaret Robinson says
It was a slow creeping cancer unti 2015 when merkel believed the eu was powerful enough to control the citizens of all member states especially germany. Perhaps some in germany will now begin to understand why the uk voted to leave this dominant corrupt institution this is the first big experiment to form a NWO
No Muzzies Here says
Merkel’s program of replacement in action! The future of Germany is easily predictable. Just listen to the words of the mother:
“I’m scared, I’m scared for my son’s future and I do not know what to expect next. My son and I feel here like foreigners. Was that intended?”
Yes, it was Merkel’s intention.
Ann Marie says
With the cultures of Europe being slowly and deliberately eradicated by the globalist liberals and Islam, I can see another great European migration to the US..
As long as they follow what previous immigrants have done: learn the language, assimilate into American culture while keeping their ethnic family traditions I say “Welcome…”
gerard says
Anne marie Never heard of Dearborn, Michigan? If I were younger and had sufficient funds, I would move to Poland or Hungary. But USA? US is well on the way to becoming like europestan. US has muslims in government, in military, in police…
Frank Anderson says
Gerard, we all understand that you are correct about some of the US. But please remember there are 50 states and several “territories”. Particularly along the southern part of the country, there could be major differences from the “stans” that are becoming in the north. I live in one of them and predict there will be many cold days in hot places before we surrender. And there is room for more like minded people. Legal immigrants who come to join us, instead of conquering us, are almost certainly welcome.

Well, lady, you are a foreigner in a strange land…Allah has the deed to the property, not you…You are a trespasser,,,the sooner you get out the better…Allah willing, and he always is…
margaret Robinson says
Allah be dammed along with you and your 3rd world vicious violent barbaric religion. Brainwashed from birth you have no understanding of civilisation and never will. If the apostasy law was removed their would be no islam

Margaret. Duh Swami is a stanch Anti-Jihadist who has been posting here for many years. He was being sarcastic–*not* supporting Jihad invasion.
shortfattexan says
Kratman’s predictions are coming true.
I am referring to Tom Kratman’s novel Caliphate, in which he describes a future Muslim-majority Germany, and it’s definitely not a pretty picture.
The European says
Deutsche Frauen, Deutsche Treue,
Deutscher Wein und Deutscher Sang
Sollen in der Welt behalten
Ihren alten schönen Klang,
Uns zu edler Tat begeistern
Unser ganzes Leben lang.
Deutsche Frauen, Deutsche Treue,
Deutscher Wein und Deutscher Sang.
German women, German loyalty,
German wine and German song,
Shall retain in the world
Their old beautiful chime
And inspire us to noble deeds
During all of our life,
German women, German loyalty
German wine and German song.
This is the second stanza of our national anthem. Nowadays, it is hardly sung anymore, only the third stanza has been retained. In the public Domain, we only sing a shortened and, yes, a mutilated version of the anthem.
The second stanza is about German culture, about our values, our way to do things, our high esteem for good and virtuous women. “German women…and inspire us to noble deeds during all of our life.” From the wise women who played a pivotal role in the life of Germanic tribes to the highly educated women of the Middle Ages like Hildegard von Bingen and Hrothsvita von Gandersheim; from our still beloved queen Louise von Preußen who withstood Napoléon and urged her reluctant and faint-hearted husband Friedrich Wilhelm III, king of Prussia, to keep on fighting against Bonaparte to Bertha von Suttner who spoke out against WWI, organizing help for wounded soldiers and nursing them back to health; from Bettina von Arnim, a Prussian noblewoman, who wrote an accusatory book about misery and poverty in Prussia which she dedicated to the king, exhorting him to do something about it to Sophie Scholl, a young student who distributed leaflets against Hitler’s tyranny, paying her audacity with her life; German history is full of women who were outstanding, awe-inspiring and heroic. This did happen because women in this country are free, equal to men and highly treasured, unlike in Islamic countries where women are subjugated to partriarchal rule and sharia law.
I don’t want German culture and traditions to be replaced with misogynistic Islam where women are hardly better treated than cattle. Islam out, out , out!
gravenimage says
Hear, hear, The European!
margaret Robinson says
Where are the heroic women now. They are desperately needed NOW to stop this madness. But in order to maintain membership of the eu it will be a half hearted affair. Its the EU leading this invasion not islam.Demand to leave the EU and take back control of your country should be the 1st step
ronyvo says
I have the feeling that she did vote for the crazy Merkel. But, if she haven’t the majority of the Germans did AND that is my point. one gets the consequence of utter ignorance. Muslims do just that. Educate yourselves read the Islamic history. It is all there.
I am here as a living of Islamic history. I am a Copt (the original citizens Christian citizens of
Egypt). Our language is the Coptic language, yet I can hardly speak it, I speak Arabic. Because, when the Muslims invaded Egypt the Muslim ruler ordered any one who speaks Coptic cut his/her tongue. THIS IS EXACTLY THE ISLAMIC WAY. Brutality, barbaric, inhumanity in short criminality is Islam.
You are in the way to be like us THE COPTS. That is if you submit to the Islamic invasion which are taking place under the dubious cover of ‘refugees.
RichardL says
She was probably at a train station throwing teddy bears at the invaders.
The report neglects to point out that it is a Catholic kindergarten. Of course they only give the kids halal food. The Church officials responded to the scandal that they are proud about the diversity.
James T Gramling says
When I first saw this headline: German mom likes foreigners, I thought: “Of course they do – it’s Europe”. Every next door state is full of foreigners – they are accustomed to a variety of languages and societies. It’s also true that generally speaking, Europeans do not have enough children – their indigent population is diminishing. And if their governments and news sources conceal the jihad war being waged against them (thanks in large part to the very successful war of deceit waged by jihadists) then it could be understandable that they would initially accept what they believe are “refugees”.

I speak perfect English and German. I am no genius. Anyone going to any country with the expectation of STAYING needs to learn enough of that country’s language to be able to function. Anyone who spits on this most basic, perfectly ATTAINABLE achievement is a complete LOUTand should be shown the nearest exit!

What will this situation look like in five years? Ten? Twenty? Ms. Kroetsch should stop worrying. This problem will not exist in twenty years: the nation we know as Germany will be an islamic state.
