From Reuters today:

Germany now expects up to 1.5 million migrants in 2015: newspaper
Reuters

BERLIN (Reuters) – German authorities expect up to 1.5 million asylum seekers to arrive in Germany this year, the Bild daily said in a report to be published on Monday, up from a previous estimate of 800,000 to 1 million. …

“Migratory pressures will increase further. We now expect seven to ten thousand illegal border crossings every day in the fourth quarter,” Bild cited the report as saying.

… The authorities’ report also cited concerns that those who are granted asylum will bring their families over to Germany too, Bild said.

Given family structures in the Middle East, this would mean each individual from that region who is granted asylum bringing an average of four to eight family members over to Germany in due course, Bild quoted the report as saying.

Not everybody is going to get legal asylum, of course. The Germans have already been kicking out some of the Balkan Muslims they can get to confess to not being Arabs. So you can’t just multiply 1.5 million by 5 to 9 people, which would of course be 7.5 to 13.5 million people. That’s probably too high … in this wave.

In the long run, well, either the German government will smarten up and learn how to use basic arithmetic before announcing its immigration policies, or it won’t. In the 21st Century, self-destructive stupidity is always an option.

Here’s the original in Bild in German. And not behind a paywall: Die Welt.

    Latest opinion survey ranking German politicians has Merkel drop nine percentage points, to 54 percent positive. She still is the most popular German politician.

    Alternative für Deutschland, currently not represented in parliament, would just barely make it past the five percent quorum if general elections were held today, according to another poll. They are the only party consistently demanding a halt to illegal immigration.

    In Bavaria, the Christian Social Union (CSU) is noisily criticizing Merkel. CSU is the "sister party" to Merkel's CDU but fields candidate only in its home state where the CDU is not present. In theory, as a member of Merkel's coalition government, they could withdraw from the coalition and call for new elections. In practice, it won't happen.

    Dissolving the EU is a pipe dream, popular will is not there. I cannot see "nationalist" parties forming a government anywhere in western Europe. It's possible that in Sweden and in the Netherlands, nationalist/nativist parties will garner the biggest share of the vote, but not an absolute majority. The other parties will then close ranks and freeze them out.

    It started long before 1951.

    Consider what happened to German national sovereignty after the Treaty of Versailles.

    Germans in Eugen and Malmedy were made Belgians by decree, in Alsace-Lorraine, French. Germans in Eastern Upper Silesia amd Poznania were made Poles. Germans in Danzig and the Saar were made whatever you call people ruled by the League of Nations.

    It wasn't just Germans. 3.5 million Germans, 3 million Slovaks, 1 million Hungarians, and 150,000 Poles were handed over to the newly created nation of Czecho-Slovakia, to be ruled by 7 million Czechs.

    Hungary saw her domain reduced from 125,000 square miles to 36,000. The 2 million Hungarians residing in Transylvania were given to Rumania. Half a million Hungarians and their lands were handed over the Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes.

    Germans in many parts of Europe were denied any plebescite or say in which nation the powers that be assigned them to.

    Europeans--Germans in particular--have been tinkered with in various ways for at least the entire period of forced globalization.

    Some say that began at Versailles. I'm not so sure...but it certainly got more systematic, organized, and jackbooted-brutal with the League of Nations. It should not surprise us that its SJW miscegenation-happy daughter, the UN, and its evil genius bastard stepchild, the EU, would operate in the same global-elitist manner.

    And punitive.

    The goal is open borders. That's all there is to it. One globe, under Rockefeller and Gates and Zuckerberg, with liberty and justice for those who define both and can afford it.

    Too many Germans of today are desperately trying to get out from under the lies told about them for the past 100 years. "Are we nice yet? Are we good? Are we done having to feel guilty? If we disappear, will we then be forgiven?"

    Steve,
    You’ve got to look at this mass immigration crisis both ways. You’re decrying it as an exercise in criminal insanity and folly, an act of momentary madness. Well, perhaps. A lot of people here agree with you.
    But put it this way. Isn’t what we are seeing now an exercise in ‘open borders’?, a dress rehearsal or dummy run of the real thing.
    Isn’t ‘open borders’ a policy firmly and insistently advocated by ‘The Economist’ magazine, the in-house magazine of the political class?

  4. Some French SJW makes conversation with every man who harasses her on the street. Good for a laugh.

    The next guy I met was named Yacine. He was an Arab, like the majority of the men who approached me over the course of those two weeks. I contemplated mentioning that tidbit because I don’t want to feed into whatever ridiculous racial prejudices people might have, but it’s the truth, and I used it as an icebreaker with Yacine.

    [spends several paragraphs describing Yacine’s dreaminess]

    With all the other guys I met, the conversational tone shifted as soon as I told them I was a journalist. Abdelkarim, a guy I met on a Tuesday night while sitting on a bench waiting for a friend, opened with “Please don’t tell me you are waiting for your boyfriend. Please!” It actually made me laugh. He was 23 and lived in Saint-Denis. Unfortunately, we may never know more than that because as soon as I told him what I did for a living, he closed up.

    “Oh really? You’re a journalist? So you’re a Freemason? Stop lying. You’re a Freemason. Or your dad is?”

    I tried to explain that most journalists are in fact not members of shadowy frateneral organizations, but he wasn’t having any of it and I ended up just aborting the conversation.

    Ten 2001-issue Francs says Abdelkarim said “Jew,” but Ms. Duportail didn’t want to feed people’s “ridiculous racial prejudices.”

    That's not such a bad outcome. Grand coalitions tend to be unpopular. The center-left Greek party PASOK destroyed itself by joining a grand coalition and it was replaced by a more nationalist and radical left party. It fell from being the largest party with 44% of the vote to the 7th largest party with 4.7% of the vote.

    In the United Kingdom the Liberal Democrats joined the Conservatives in a grand coalition in 2010. In the next election, the party was nearly destroyed, going from 23.0% to 7.8% of the popular vote and from 57 to 8 seats.

    The fact that this is true -- and it is -- shows just how corrupt and useless politics and politicians are in Germany. One of these parties should be the main opposition party -- given what is going on now, you would normally expect the SPD to be in charge, and the CDU would be leading opposition to it. But no, actually the CDU is the senior partner in the current Gr0ße Koalition -- that's why Merkel is Kanzlerin -- and the CDU and SPD are cooperating to screw Germany and future generations of Germans.

    Periodically, the two parties get together and do something that is both stupid and evil. This is called – “bipartisanship.”

    In many ways, the mindset of many Germans, and therefore also of the German government, more resembles communism than capitalism. Being a member of the Gesellschaft (during, uhh, earlier times this may have been called the Volksgemeinschaft), is seen as more important than being an individual. For this reason, you rarely encounter skepticism about big government -- actually, it seems to many Germans 'the bigger the better' -- eg they depend on big government to enforce the so-called Vertrag der Generationen, which they see as guaranteeing their retirement pension.

    The CSU has occasionally threatened to break their electoral alliance with the CDU, to get concessions. It is how they got their leader as the joint CDU-CSU Chancellor candidate in 1980. To carry out their threat, they would have to be prepared to go national. Right now they only run candidates in Bavaria, a state they control.

    Germany is a federal system that uses proportional representation in its federal and state elections, but which incorporates districts electing single representatives to provide local representation. If the CSU went national, it would probably clear the 5% hurdle comfortably, and the proportional feature would allow it to do fine. The CDU competing in Bavaria would mean the defeat of some CSU district representatives, and more critically threaten CSU control of the Bavarian state government, which is a pretty big deal in itself. So you have a strategy in which the party would do fine or even better, but the politicians controlling the party would do worse.

    But a split with the CSU over immigration does give them an opening to go national.

    I'll add there is a similar situation with the National Party in Australia, but the Nats have not been as effective in maintaining their independence and separate identity, and are slowly getting absorbed into the Liberals.

  8. Of course she’s going to let in as many “family” members as they want. There are nearly a million young Arab men spread around the country who have already demonstrated no respect for rule of law just by being there. They could turn Germany into a warzone in about twenty minutes.

  10. I heard someone say, here in France, “people will realize that something’s very wrong only when their fridges are empty.”

    It’s amazing to see that, if very unlikely decisions are not taken and ruthlessly enforced — and they probably won’t — Germany is toast, and the rest of the EU as well (except maybe Hungary). Will Europe as-we-know-it survive until 2020? I have doubts.

    I had a conversation on the phone last night with a left-wing friend, who used to vote for the communists. The conversation almost turned into a shouting match (with me doing all the shouting, which surprised him because I usually don’t shout). He wants to believe that what is written in the mainstream press is true, he feels he must let his heart bleed for the 2 year old boy who drowned in Turkey… Considers himself a true marxist dissenter, though.

    Let’s try to look beyond 2020. Germany, France and the rest of Western Europe have become chaotic, with millions of recent immigrants each (up to ten million in Germany alone), and no jobs or housing for them, not even food sometimes. Homeless, jobless, possibly starving immigrants invade homes, rape women and steal food. They turn Europe into Syria. What do we do? We fight and/or die.

    But Europe is just a small part of the world. What does the rest of the world do when the EU becomes indistinguishable from Syria and Iraq ? Since European industries have been outsourced years ago, and what German industry produces can be produced by Japan and China, the rest of the world simply watches on its Japanese TV screens Europe falling into chaos, fascinated as if by a huge train wreck. Europe is a consumer of raw materials. China will be glad to consume the oil, silver, copper, etc, which the EU used to consume. Eastern European countries, with razor wire all over their borders, become buffer states on Russia’s behalf. Page turned.

    As Lawrence Auster put it:


    The traditionalist conservative recognizes a threat to his society the
    moment it appears.

    The establishment conservative recognizes a threat to his society only
    after it has done irreparable damage.

    The liberal does not recognize a threat until it has completely destroyed his society, if he ever recognizes it at all.

    Sanel M. blickt auf eine Biografie als Schulversager zurück. So hatte er zunächst ein Gymnasium besucht und galt als ehrgeizig. Nachdem seine Leistungen nicht ausgereicht hatten, musste er auf eine Realschule wechseln, nach zwei Jahren schließlich 2012 in eine gewerblich-technische Schule. Dort durchlief Sanel M. ein Jahr, das ihn auf einen Beruf vorbereiten sollte. Er schwänzte aber wiederholt und zeigte bei einem Praktikum in einer Autowerkstatt nach Angaben der Mitarbeiter kaum Interesse.

    To summarize: he was a complete failure right down the line -- never showed much interest in school or job training -- mostly did not bother to show up.

    From today's National Review:

    "Which brings us to another reason Trump would be a disastrous champion for conservatives: He taints and discredits the important cause of controlling immigration, and would do the same to conservatism generally in the unlikely event that he became the nominee. Deterring illegal immigration and reducing legal immigration would serve the rule of law, promote national cohesion, and help both native-born and immigrant low-wage workers. This agenda is routinely dismissed, however, as an expression of nostalgia for a whiter country — or worse. Every time Trump suggests that people who have come here from Mexico are mostly drug runners and murderers, he makes it easier to think that legitimate conservative concerns about immigration are tantamount to racism."

    http://www.nationalreview.com/article/425010/donald-trump-lowry-ponnuru

    Basically it amounts to the cuckservatives saying they'll support controlling the border as soon as the liberal establishment doesn't think border control is racist and gives them permission to support it. About the third of never. Immigration is a racial policy, it has no other serious component, and the refusal of Republicans and conservatives to acknowledge that reality is the very definition of cuckservatism.

    It wouldn't be destroyed in the sense of a civil war. Civil wars come about in all sorts of ways, but immigration doesn't cause them.

    When large numbers of unassimilable immigrants move into a society, a caste system forms. Endogomy goes up, barriers go up, real or imagined. You no longer have a true shared society. Get my point?

    Brazil's aerospace industry depends on its German minority. Why do they need the rest of the favela dwelling country?

    Remember that all their toys, their cars, guns, internet, and phones, come from the First World outside their country. When the First World is gone, who will invent these things? A country modelled on Brazil will be shittier than ever. Their women aren't even hot - lol don't believe the hype

    Thats an interesting question. In countries like Algeria or even in war zones in Congo people live, laugh, love. And Maybe becoming just another MENA country is the worst which could happen to north-western/central Europe. Maybe it could become even worse, as raging muslim youths could meet less resistance in Germany, compared to e.g. Egypt. But even if it is worse, it will be probably better than in war zones in Congo, and as I said, even there the world has not ended.
    The problem is: it will be a long way down from the living standard of Japan (Germany today) to the living standards of Colombia, Algeri or Cameroon (Germany in 20 years). It will feel bad because of the effect of a reversed hedonic treadmill, each step down will feel bad again.

    What is a nation? They'll be destroyed AS GERMANY, as a people, as a culture and as a nation, and the native survivors will live in oppression. That the land will live on is neither here nor there. Bit like saying that if Charles Manson and family slaughtered your family and moved into your house it'll be OK because the shell of the house will still exist and some sort of family life will still go on there. The important thing is what happened to the victims, not what the perps made of the opportunities afterward.

    If you accept the idea that materialism (the American Dream, barf) is the most important thing in life, the most important thing in defining your nation you are already finished. There will always be a hostile takeover, from within and without, ready just around the corner.

    Latest opinion survey ranking German politicians has Merkel drop nine percentage points, to 54 percent positive. She still is the most popular German politician.

    Alternative für Deutschland, currently not represented in parliament, would just barely make it past the five percent quorum if general elections were held today, according to another poll. They are the only party consistently demanding a halt to illegal immigration.

    In Bavaria, the Christian Social Union (CSU) is noisily criticizing Merkel. CSU is the "sister party" to Merkel's CDU but fields candidate only in its home state where the CDU is not present. In theory, as a member of Merkel's coalition government, they could withdraw from the coalition and call for new elections. In practice, it won't happen.

    Dissolving the EU is a pipe dream, popular will is not there. I cannot see "nationalist" parties forming a government anywhere in western Europe.

    That’s not such a bad outcome. Grand coalitions tend to be unpopular. The center-left Greek party PASOK destroyed itself by joining a grand coalition and it was replaced by a more nationalist and radical left party. It fell from being the largest party with 44% of the vote to the 7th largest party with 4.7% of the vote.

    In the United Kingdom the Liberal Democrats joined the Conservatives in a grand coalition in 2010. In the next election, the party was nearly destroyed, going from 23.0% to 7.8% of the popular vote and from 57 to 8 seats.

  24. That’s not “self-destructive stupidity”, that’s destructive malice. Germany is an occupied country, and some social groups from the main occupying power has always wished to impose harsher measures upon Germany.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earnest_Hooton

    >During World War II, Hooton proposed to eradicate the German people by infiltrating them slowly with masses of non-European male immigrants, thereby breed “war strains” out of them.

    https://wikispooks.com/wiki/File:Germany_Must_Perish.pdf

    >In an article headlined “Breed War Strain Out of Germans” in the New York daily newspaper P.M., January 4, 1943, Ernest Hooton laid out an “outbreeding” plan that would “destroy German nationalism and aggressive ideology while retaining and perpetuating desirable German biological and sociological capacities.”

    >The Harvard University professor’s proposal called for genetically transforming the German nation by encouraging mating of German women with non-German men, who would be brought into the country in large numbers.

    >This plan, Hooton estimated, would require at least 20 years to be implemented. “During this period,” he went on, “encourage also the immigration and settlement in the German states of non-German nationals, especially males.”

    See also the Morgenthau Plan, or the Society for the Prevention of World War III, which opposed the Marshall Plan. The big political divide in the aftermath of World War II was between liberals and progressives, like Morgenthau, who wanted to utterly destroy Germany as punishment for Nazism, these guys were concentrated in the press, the cultural industry and the intelligentsia (see Rex Stout, for example). On the other side there were moderate, military types, who sympathized with Germans and saw them as a bulwark against communism.

    Well, now communism is defeated, the military has no political power anymore and the intelligentsia, the press and cultural sphere has more power than ever. They can finally enact their plans.

    Very convenient to turn around the Germans' desire to continue existing as a people, and claim THEY are the eugenicists, the genocidal, the original-sin bearers of Satanic depravity.

    Misdirection works best when done at a culturally/socially saturation level, such as the MSM have been able to deliver since the age of Bernays. And when coupled with carefully engineered, systematically peddled idealism and violation of observed natural phenomena, both of which light up the Faith centers of the cerebral cortex.

    That’s the Spiegel-poll. But I know, they have a “reputation” to lose. They would never compromise their “journalistic integrity” by tendentious reporting or cherry picking data.

  26. Of course, the tacit admission that each ‘migrant’ will bring in 4 to 8 dependents rather deflates the oft-repeated German government official mantra that the ‘migrants’ are an economic boost to Germany.
    Rest assured that those dependents are the elderly and non working.

  27. The economics of this just won’t add up ( though the numbers will be what they will be ). EU unemployment stands at 11% now and is much higher for those under thirty so there is no shortage of labor within the EU despite the labor force maxing out 3 or 4 years ago.

    It is also the case that, whatever the faults of Latino immigration to the US maybe, Latinos will work. Both sexes. If they are illegal they have little choice in America as our social welfare benefits are not as generous. One of the big problems with Muslim societies is that they do not make much use of their female populations as compared to Europe, North America or Asia. Their women do not work at anything like western or asian labor participation rates. Throw in higher birth rates and Muslim populations have far more ‘dependents’ per worker than is the norm in Europe. Muslim men are also more work averse than Latino men. The Muslim man will not do the same jobs a Latino man will be glad to do. Manual labor is not the Muslims strong suit so even if Europe was in need of additional manpower, which it is not, Muslim immigration would be the least desirable immigrant population of all.

    And each one is going to bring in 4-8 baby-mamas and sprogs. That is going to cost $35 to $70 billion more per year.

    Cons:
    Strictly in terms of progress, Germany and Western Europe will become like Brazil in short order. Back in the 60’s and 70’s knowledgeable people were predicting that Brazil would emerge as a world power. What happened?? No matter how much you naturally or unnaturally segregate a country’s cognitive elites and achievers, a burgeoning (dynamic rather static population) underclass is crippling. And Brazil would be a lot worse off were it not for outside countries assisting it through patronization (esp. the U.S.). The U.S. and Western Europe are moving quickly toward the global equilibrium at an increasing rate (actually, increasing at an increasing rate). In Western Europe (and Europe in general, b/c they all hitched their wagons to the West) things will be orders of magnitude more crippling than Brazil do to the toxic mix of Islam and low-IQed tribal peoples and their rapid breeding.

    Pros:
    The power of the problem-makers will be weakened. The ability to facilitate the support of actions antithetical to civilization, esp. Christian civilization (e.g., supporting jihadism and the destruction of sovereign countries), will be seriously reduced due to economic decline and general societal disorder. Meanwhile, countries embracing Christian culture– Russia, China (soon to have the most Christians of any country), and the Pacific Rim) won’t have to put up with the never ending schemes to undermine them, and have shit thrown at them, from the Problem-makers. As the Ven. Fulton Sheen said in a talk given over 40 years ago, we must look to the East for the future of the Christian church. Scary, because at that time the statement seems ludicrous.

There was no conception that race, culture or politics could have a significant effect on the outcomes for a society, it was all down to simple material measures.

    Depends…the Croats, Serbs etc. who came as “guest workers” to the old Federal Republic and stayed, are in general fairly well integrated…I doubt there’s much negative feeling towards them.
    Newer arrivals are viewed less favorably…obviously Albanians have a reputation as thugs, and the Roma as petty criminals…but Erik’s right, Balkan migrants would be a manageable problem for Germany…whereas the flood from outside of Europe is an existential threat.

    It wouldn’t be destroyed in the sense of a civil war. Civil wars come about in all sorts of ways, but immigration doesn’t cause them.

    I heard someone say, here in France, "people will realize that something's very wrong only when their fridges are empty."

    It's amazing to see that, if very unlikely decisions are not taken and ruthlessly enforced — and they probably won't — Germany is toast, and the rest of the EU as well (except maybe Hungary). Will Europe as-we-know-it survive until 2020? I have doubts.

    I had a conversation on the phone last night with a left-wing friend, who used to vote for the communists. The conversation almost turned into a shouting match (with me doing all the shouting, which surprised him because I usually don't shout). He wants to believe that what is written in the mainstream press is true, he feels he must let his heart bleed for the 2 year old boy who drowned in Turkey... Considers himself a true marxist dissenter, though.

    Let's try to look beyond 2020. Germany, France and the rest of Western Europe have become chaotic, with millions of recent immigrants each (up to ten million in Germany alone), and no jobs or housing for them, not even food sometimes. Homeless, jobless, possibly starving immigrants invade homes, rape women and steal food. They turn Europe into Syria. What do we do? We fight and/or die.

    But Europe is just a small part of the world. What does the rest of the world do when the EU becomes indistinguishable from Syria and Iraq ? Since European industries have been outsourced years ago, and what German industry produces can be produced by Japan and China, the rest of the world simply watches on its Japanese TV screens Europe falling into chaos, fascinated as if by a huge train wreck. Europe is a consumer of raw materials. China will be glad to consume the oil, silver, copper, etc, which the EU used to consume. Eastern European countries, with razor wire all over their borders, become buffer states on Russia's behalf. Page turned.

    See the crouching bearded Pakistani, already a German citizen, also taking pictures; he was an “engineer” back home, but his qualifications and ability turned out to be laughably inadequate for working in a tech firm in a first-world country. Now he runs an internet cafe and collects supplementary government assistance.

    Near the left edge of the frame, a Somali who arrived a few weeks earlier, hoping to find some of his friends from the trek across Europe. And then there are the two Gutmenschen in faded blue jeans, both in their fifties and Green voters. The rapturous expression of the guy on the left indicates that his wildest dreams have come true: Germany will be changed beyond recognition.

    His companion reaches out, wanting to touch the sainted immigrant. Maybe he expects some of the holiness to rub off on him. Both men are childless, they will die unlamented by family. But they are not without power now and by jiminy, they intend to wield it.

    The economics of this just won't add up ( though the numbers will be what they will be ). EU unemployment stands at 11% now and is much higher for those under thirty so there is no shortage of labor within the EU despite the labor force maxing out 3 or 4 years ago.

    It is also the case that, whatever the faults of Latino immigration to the US maybe, Latinos will work. Both sexes. If they are illegal they have little choice in America as our social welfare benefits are not as generous. One of the big problems with Muslim societies is that they do not make much use of their female populations as compared to Europe, North America or Asia. Their women do not work at anything like western or asian labor participation rates. Throw in higher birth rates and Muslim populations have far more 'dependents' per worker than is the norm in Europe. Muslim men are also more work averse than Latino men. The Muslim man will not do the same jobs a Latino man will be glad to do. Manual labor is not the Muslims strong suit so even if Europe was in need of additional manpower, which it is not, Muslim immigration would be the least desirable immigrant population of all.

    “Which brings us to another reason Trump would be a disastrous champion for conservatives: He taints and discredits the important cause of controlling immigration, and would do the same to conservatism generally in the unlikely event that he became the nominee. Deterring illegal immigration and reducing legal immigration would serve the rule of law, promote national cohesion, and help both native-born and immigrant low-wage workers. This agenda is routinely dismissed, however, as an expression of nostalgia for a whiter country — or worse. Every time Trump suggests that people who have come here from Mexico are mostly drug runners and murderers, he makes it easier to think that legitimate conservative concerns about immigration are tantamount to racism.”

    The CSU has occasionally threatened to break their electoral alliance with the CDU, to get concessions. It is how they got their leader as the joint CDU-CSU Chancellor candidate in 1980. To carry out their threat, they would have to be prepared to go national. Right now they only run candidates in Bavaria, a state they control.

    Germany is a federal system that uses proportional representation in its federal and state elections, but which incorporates districts electing single representatives to provide local representation. If the CSU went national, it would probably clear the 5% hurdle comfortably, and the proportional feature would allow it to do fine. The CDU competing in Bavaria would mean the defeat of some CSU district representatives, and more critically threaten CSU control of the Bavarian state government, which is a pretty big deal in itself. So you have a strategy in which the party would do fine or even better, but the politicians controlling the party would do worse.

    But a split with the CSU over immigration does give them an opening to go national.

    I’ll add there is a similar situation with the National Party in Australia, but the Nats have not been as effective in maintaining their independence and separate identity, and are slowly getting absorbed into the Liberals.

    In many ways, the mindset of many Germans, and therefore also of the German government, more resembles communism than capitalism. Being a member of the Gesellschaft (during, uhh, earlier times this may have been called the Volksgemeinschaft), is seen as more important than being an individual. For this reason, you rarely encounter skepticism about big government -- actually, it seems to many Germans 'the bigger the better' -- eg they depend on big government to enforce the so-called Vertrag der Generationen, which they see as guaranteeing their retirement pension.

    Consider what happened to German national sovereignty after the Treaty of Versailles.

    Germans in Eugen and Malmedy were made Belgians by decree, in Alsace-Lorraine, French. Germans in Eastern Upper Silesia amd Poznania were made Poles. Germans in Danzig and the Saar were made whatever you call people ruled by the League of Nations.

    It wasn’t just Germans. 3.5 million Germans, 3 million Slovaks, 1 million Hungarians, and 150,000 Poles were handed over to the newly created nation of Czecho-Slovakia, to be ruled by 7 million Czechs.

    Hungary saw her domain reduced from 125,000 square miles to 36,000. The 2 million Hungarians residing in Transylvania were given to Rumania. Half a million Hungarians and their lands were handed over the Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes.

    Germans in many parts of Europe were denied any plebescite or say in which nation the powers that be assigned them to.

    Europeans–Germans in particular–have been tinkered with in various ways for at least the entire period of forced globalization.

    Some say that began at Versailles. I’m not so sure…but it certainly got more systematic, organized, and jackbooted-brutal with the League of Nations. It should not surprise us that its SJW miscegenation-happy daughter, the UN, and its evil genius bastard stepchild, the EU, would operate in the same global-elitist manner.

    And punitive.

    The goal is open borders. That’s all there is to it. One globe, under Rockefeller and Gates and Zuckerberg, with liberty and justice for those who define both and can afford it.

    >In an article headlined "Breed War Strain Out of Germans" in the New York daily newspaper P.M., January 4, 1943, Ernest Hooton laid out an "outbreeding" plan that would "destroy German nationalism and aggressive ideology while retaining and perpetuating desirable German biological and sociological capacities."

    >The Harvard University professor's proposal called for genetically transforming the German nation by encouraging mating of German women with non-German men, who would be brought into the country in large numbers.

    >This plan, Hooton estimated, would require at least 20 years to be implemented. "During this period," he went on, "encourage also the immigration and settlement in the German states of non-German nationals, especially males."

    See also the Morgenthau Plan, or the Society for the Prevention of World War III, which opposed the Marshall Plan. The big political divide in the aftermath of World War II was between liberals and progressives, like Morgenthau, who wanted to utterly destroy Germany as punishment for Nazism, these guys were concentrated in the press, the cultural industry and the intelligentsia (see Rex Stout, for example). On the other side there were moderate, military types, who sympathized with Germans and saw them as a bulwark against communism.

    Well, now communism is defeated, the military has no political power anymore and the intelligentsia, the press and cultural sphere has more power than ever. They can finally enact their plans.

    I entirely agree, and it’s been focused on Germany for a century for what I have concluded are entirely HBD reasons.

    Did you know that Barbara Tuchman’s grandpa was Henry Morgenthau, Sr.? (Yes, THAT Morgenthau.)

    Her daddy was one of FDR’s dollar-a-year men, an M&A specialization financier who owned The Nation magazine.

    Very convenient to turn around the Germans’ desire to continue existing as a people, and claim THEY are the eugenicists, the genocidal, the original-sin bearers of Satanic depravity.

    Misdirection works best when done at a culturally/socially saturation level, such as the MSM have been able to deliver since the age of Bernays. And when coupled with carefully engineered, systematically peddled idealism and violation of observed natural phenomena, both of which light up the Faith centers of the cerebral cortex.

    Some French SJW makes conversation with every man who harasses her on the street. Good for a laugh.

    The next guy I met was named Yacine. He was an Arab, like the majority of the men who approached me over the course of those two weeks. I contemplated mentioning that tidbit because I don't want to feed into whatever ridiculous racial prejudices people might have, but it's the truth, and I used it as an icebreaker with Yacine.

    [spends several paragraphs describing Yacine's dreaminess]

    With all the other guys I met, the conversational tone shifted as soon as I told them I was a journalist. Abdelkarim, a guy I met on a Tuesday night while sitting on a bench waiting for a friend, opened with "Please don't tell me you are waiting for your boyfriend. Please!" It actually made me laugh. He was 23 and lived in Saint-Denis. Unfortunately, we may never know more than that because as soon as I told him what I did for a living, he closed up.

    "Oh really? You're a journalist? So you're a Freemason? Stop lying. You're a Freemason. Or your dad is?"

    I tried to explain that most journalists are in fact not members of shadowy frateneral organizations, but he wasn't having any of it and I ended up just aborting the conversation.

    CDU + SPD would still have a huge majority.

    The fact that this is true -- and it is -- shows just how corrupt and useless politics and politicians are in Germany. One of these parties should be the main opposition party -- given what is going on now, you would normally expect the SPD to be in charge, and the CDU would be leading opposition to it. But no, actually the CDU is the senior partner in the current Gr0ße Koalition -- that's why Merkel is Kanzlerin -- and the CDU and SPD are cooperating to screw Germany and future generations of Germans.

    Periodically, the two parties get together and do something that is both stupid and evil. This is called – “bipartisanship.”

    In many ways, the mindset of many Germans, and therefore also of the German government, more resembles communism than capitalism. Being a member of the Gesellschaft (during, uhh, earlier times this may have been called the Volksgemeinschaft), is seen as more important than being an individual. For this reason, you rarely encounter skepticism about big government -- actually, it seems to many Germans 'the bigger the better' -- eg they depend on big government to enforce the so-called Vertrag der Generationen, which they see as guaranteeing their retirement pension.

    Same as the first amnesty that Ronald Reagan got tricked into. The claim was 1.3 million illegal alien invaders would get this amnesty. This amnesty dragged on for years with scummy immigration lawyers suing to extend it. By time it finished 10 years later 3 million plus got amnesty.
    Plus the enforcement provisions were sabotaged by Congress and the permanent Federal bureaucracy. These 3 million legally and illegally brought in their families and compadres. They were the seed corn for the mess we have today with 20-30 million illegals.

    You can’t blame Congress alone when the Executive doesn’t lift a finger to make something happen. They were all guilty and those immigration courts created by that amnesty never had to happen, they were created to make sure almost nobody was ever deported in the future.

    Cons:
    Strictly in terms of progress, Germany and Western Europe will become like Brazil in short order. Back in the 60's and 70's knowledgeable people were predicting that Brazil would emerge as a world power. What happened?? No matter how much you naturally or unnaturally segregate a country's cognitive elites and achievers, a burgeoning (dynamic rather static population) underclass is crippling. And Brazil would be a lot worse off were it not for outside countries assisting it through patronization (esp. the U.S.). The U.S. and Western Europe are moving quickly toward the global equilibrium at an increasing rate (actually, increasing at an increasing rate). In Western Europe (and Europe in general, b/c they all hitched their wagons to the West) things will be orders of magnitude more crippling than Brazil do to the toxic mix of Islam and low-IQed tribal peoples and their rapid breeding.

    Pros:
    The power of the problem-makers will be weakened. The ability to facilitate the support of actions antithetical to civilization, esp. Christian civilization (e.g., supporting jihadism and the destruction of sovereign countries), will be seriously reduced due to economic decline and general societal disorder. Meanwhile, countries embracing Christian culture-- Russia, China (soon to have the most Christians of any country), and the Pacific Rim) won't have to put up with the never ending schemes to undermine them, and have shit thrown at them, from the Problem-makers. As the Ven. Fulton Sheen said in a talk given over 40 years ago, we must look to the East for the future of the Christian church. Scary, because at that time the statement seems ludicrous.

    Replies: @Alfa158

    That prediction actually goes back to the 30’s. Scholars believed that the Soviet Union and Brazil would be the two great bipolar superpowers dominating the world by the end of the 20th century, based purely on their land area and natural resources. There was no conception that race, culture or politics could have a significant effect on the outcomes for a society, it was all down to simple material measures.

    From today's National Review:

    "Which brings us to another reason Trump would be a disastrous champion for conservatives: He taints and discredits the important cause of controlling immigration, and would do the same to conservatism generally in the unlikely event that he became the nominee. Deterring illegal immigration and reducing legal immigration would serve the rule of law, promote national cohesion, and help both native-born and immigrant low-wage workers. This agenda is routinely dismissed, however, as an expression of nostalgia for a whiter country — or worse. Every time Trump suggests that people who have come here from Mexico are mostly drug runners and murderers, he makes it easier to think that legitimate conservative concerns about immigration are tantamount to racism."

    http://www.nationalreview.com/article/425010/donald-trump-lowry-ponnuru

    Basically it amounts to the cuckservatives saying they'll support controlling the border as soon as the liberal establishment doesn't think border control is racist and gives them permission to support it. About the third of never. Immigration is a racial policy, it has no other serious component, and the refusal of Republicans and conservatives to acknowledge that reality is the very definition of cuckservatism.

Anyway, the issue is that we aren’t permitted to compete against or defend our homeland from invasion by the savage hordes. Our government grants the primitives extra advantages while burdening us with the resulting costs. Should we defend our nation directly, our government would imprison us. If our government wouldn’t punish us severely, I am certain that millions of American men would camp on our southern border in rotating shifts on a purely voluntary basis.

    It’s not that we can’t compete with them, it’s that we can’t pay for them. They have failed as competitors and that is why they have run away from home and are showing up on our doorstep begging us to let them in.

    Figure the costs. 1,500,000 this year, times a minimum of $30,000 to feed, clothe, house, medicate, police, hospitalize, fire protect, entertain and educate each and every one of those 85 IQ suckers per year. That is $9 billion per year.

    And each one is going to bring in 4-8 baby-mamas and sprogs. That is going to cost $35 to $70 billion more per year.

    And each additional year of free immigration is going to add ANOTHER $9 billion (plus $30 to $70 billion for wimmin and sprogs).
