European News and Poland Thread 2

So.... you want to compare known harm to unknown / unknowable hypothetical good? What are you basing her covid numbers on? Compared to what other possible German politicians (since she's cannibalized all her potential successors?)

BS. You don't know that - just speculating without any basis. Plus, corona and migrants are separate issues.
Back to migrants...For every 10,000 happy migrants how many murdered or raped Germans would be a fair exchange? 10? How about 30?
OK, boys and girls, just watch a knee-jerk, feel-good demagogue wiggle out of this simple question:

How many unhappy German victims would be too many to justify 10,000 happy migrants in Germany?

Tacitus, did you notice that "How many"? An answer is a number, not another bs essay.

Yet both of them will factor into her legacy. Germany has had fewer deaths than any other mayor Western democracy relative to its' population and especially considering it borders so many countries.

The Covid pandemic dwarves anything that happened in the last decades. It is going to be the crucial issue current politicians will be judged on. The migrant crisis is completely inconsequential compared to this.

Yes. She made the right call on both issues.


To say the least. We'll be feeling the economic effect for a long time.

Just being there is not legacy other than in the mind of the always obedient German followers. To claim legacy, correlation is not enough. Causation is the only way and even then it has to be taken differentially - she vs somebody else.

Opting in to the EU's awful, terrible, not very good vaccine program?

Trusting von der Leyen to not foul things up?

Not a very good decision.

Among major countries in the region, they're doing far better than most.

Seems the two issues are linked tacticus!
"'NINETY PER CENT of Germany's severe Covid-19 patients have migrant background and more than half are Muslim' despite making up 4.8% of the population - with politicians 'afraid to tackle the problem in case they look racist' dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9320323/Coronavirus-Germany-90-severely-ill-patients-migrant-background.html

Denmark Based! pepelaugh. Amazing that a social democrat party is implementing these policies but i guess they're the spiked-online sorta left haha. Imagine the mainstream press outrage if trump or the austrian premier had tried this. amazing. the tide is truly turning.

"Denmark is seeking to limit the number of "non-western" residents living in its neighborhoods to no more than 30 percent, part of a controversial bill aimed at fostering integration and preventing the rise of "parallel societies." High concentrations of foreigners living in residential areas increases the risk that distinct "religious and cultural parallel societies" will emerge in Denmark, Interior Minister Kaare Dybvad Bek said as he presented his government's new initiative to combat the ghettoization of "vulnerable" areas. rt.com/news/518418-denmark-non-western-residents-limited/

Oh Scheiße its starting to happen in u.k too! Priti Patel based! . And now that ridiculous ECHR can't do squat about it! pepelaugh

"Asylum revolution: Priti Patel eyes radical new plan to send Channel migrants to Turkey, Gibraltar or the ISLE OF MAN to await processing if they arrive in UK from 'safe' countries" dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9373855/Priti-Patel-eyes-radical-new-plan-send-future-Channel-migrants-overseas.html

Oh, the irony of it...It takes a foreigner - well, almost - to beat some sense into the boot-licking Brits.
We all know that refugees coming to the US or the UK from safe places are all frauds, but the woke idiots buy that crap anyway to feel good for five minutes.

Now he thinks the Home Secretary is foreign...

He thinks I am stupid. Did you notice that: It takes a foreigner - well, almost - ...Yes, she was born in the UK but her parents were not. Hence, - well, almost.

I am sure that she is normal in spite of being born in the UK and thanks to her parents. Got it?

So not in fact "a foreigner".


Indeed.

I just heard Putin is lining up tanks and soldiers along the Ukrainian border again.

I remember last time they asked Obozo and Biden for help and they sent them blankets! Trump sent them anti tank missiles... I wonder who's going to help them now?

I wouldn't depend on Bidet either! All the worlds aggressors feel embolden now that the USA is transfixed on wokeism and an out of touch President.

Putin, basically can do anything thing he wants , who's going to stop him.... NATO?

Did you hear, prince Harry died.....or was it prince Phillip ?

dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4074802/Prince-Philip-born-kitchen-table-Corfu.html
I read it and found nothing that could even remotely be classified as his achievement. Being made something when you are married to the queen is actually embarrassing. Here, we call it nepotism.

And The First Lady?

With her staff of 30? It's a disgrace. And so is the Secret Service for life for god knows have many parasites.

Somehow it's not called nepotism in such instance

In their defense, thaae so-called first ladies play a role hosting and smiling. That justifies all that staff. Plus, Americans still like the royal trappings, the pomp, and other bs.

Back to Duke...

He escaped Greece as a baby, stowed in a makeshift cot made from an orange box - but Prince Philip did not let his traumatic childhood hinder him as he rose to great heights after being sent to the UK as a virtually orphaned ten-year-old boy.

First, babies don't "escape". They eat, sh*it, and need their diapers changed when they do. Second, what "great heights"? Joe rose to "great heights" from nothing to the most powerful job in the world by bsing nearly 90 million legally sane people. Now, that's an achievement.

And then this:

.... but he remained patron, president or a member of more than 750 associations up to his death.

Since there are only 751 associations on the globe, that was remarkable. The question is could he name at least 10 of them.

Also, some pics show Duke wearing more metal than I can lift without an explanation for what acts of bravery. Sure would be nice to know.

There have been many threads on PF, some of them recent, that suggested that people that do not live in a certain country, really don't understand it properly.

In the main, these comments have come from American posters.
In the form of "You don't live here, so what do you know?".
Whilst I accept the fact that these posters have a right to their opinions, they must also accept the fact that they don't really know or understand countries they don't live in either.

Take this;


Either pure ignorance or pure trolling.

Or this about Prince Phillip;


You really need to read more about him.....


Also this idiotic comment
Besides exposing your physical weakness, you also expose your ignorance.
Yeah, most of his medals were symbolic, and he wore them in support of those countries and causes.
But you need to check out the medals he got for bravery in WW2.

As has been said many times before on PF, people need to be very careful when posting about countries they know little about,

@JohnnyReb
@Novichok

All you have done today is expose your total disrespect and ignorance.

Phillip, unfortunately. If it was Harry I'd crack open a Dom Perignon... Then again, I guess with the way the rest of England has gone over the past few decades it was only a matter of time before Buckingham Palace was also "culturally enriched."

Yeah, look forward to President Mehgan...... and she is one of yours LOL!!! !

And just for JR and Rich, this is your hero Donald Trump's opinion on Prince Phillip;

nypost.com/2021/04/09/trump-honors-prince-philip-for-embodying-dignity-and-grace/

Yanks, be honest, what really bewilders and annoys you is how much weight Britain and British people still carry.
Way more than their size, population, economy, military or any other powers suggest.
It has always been this way and always will be.
Never underestimate the British.

That's disgusting and disrespectful of the true heroes who risked their lives to save others. It would be like me getting a jacket with four stars and a bunch of medals to wear in support of some sh*itholes and causes. Everybody feels warm about something and doesn't get any medals for it.


I read a puff piece in dailymail.com that strained itself to list the most mundane of things as his "achievements", including that ridiculous thing of how he escaped as a baby. If that is an achievement, that I want full credit for participating in the Warsaw Uprising.


Millions of men showed more bravery during WW2. No medals. I guess, having connections helps.
Bravery is demonstrated in an event, not as a state of mind.

UK is a has been... their glory days are long over. The worst part about it they gave up their power and prestige without even a fight. Simply handed it right over... Then after they did that they implemented the most ridiculous "woke" policies of any of the cucked/"culturally enriched" countries of Europe...

It's gotten to the point where they're forcing kindergarteners to learn about LGBT relationships and parents aren't allowed to opt their kids out... And who were the ones protesting and opposing it? Sadly not British Christians.... no it was 95% muslims with a handful of Christian immigrants from Eastern Europe or the Carribean... Their future looks more like Pakistan with the last remaining white faces being trannies...

"Welcome to the school of the future," said a notice about a workshop at a south London primary school that sought to show what education would be like if it were fully supportive of trans pupils.

And those clowns, the royals, were just standing there smiling and adding more meaningless medals for him to wear because he supported countries and causes except his own. Instead of screaming what the hell is going on here, they were busy organizing another wedding with a mulatto z-lister.

Has your wife yet again send you to the shed without supper . Luckily you can talk big on the internet. Must be therapeutic.
An old dude passed away, as far as I know he didn't harm anyone. Just let him RIP.


What are you on about? Are you alluding to Megan? Are you implying Harry married her in order to be woke or make the RF woke? It doesn't make much sense does it?

Not that you and your racist drivel made much sense anyways.
Only racists from the woke brigade and some racist loons like you care about her skin color. I didn't even known her race until woke fanatic's and their cult members stared screeching about enrichment and about a BLM person in the Royal F.

Normal people don't care about it.

She already forgot about Phil.

:)

Sure. Old witch still can fly.
