Merkel's new book

What's your source for that assessment on the content?

Good morning edy, I read a few comments from Nico Lange.

Thanks. It is correct that Merkel is sparse with criticism, but the "and all the migrant problems are the fault of the German people for refusing to change." part doesn't seem very Nico Lange. Can you please be a bit more specific where you read them?

A quick search of his X account doesn't give me results about it.

I can't be bothered finding it edy. Tethering your loyalty to that creature is looking a bit foolish now tbh.

Shame.

It would also help others participate in the thread from a better position of knowledge if they were able to also read those comments from Nico Lange that you are referring to.

And if you even remember the name it should not take all that long to pull it from your browser history really.

I read that she buried German intelligence reports about the Wuhan leak, and that Germany spends as
much on immigrants as it does on defence. The latter sounded hard to believe imo, perhaps you could check that.

I will be very glad to fact check you after you are kind enough to pull the Nico Lange comments from your browser history.

You need to be careful though. Casemoney is probably right around the corner to scold you about commenting on another country and its (former) leader. He hates that with a vengeance and does so farily and without hypocrisy.

I have to go and collect a future wundekind from nursery edy. Busy afternoon.

in a fair way and without hypocrisy.

Cool! Enjoy, but don't pinch those cheeks too hard in a bout of what psychologists refer to as "cute aggression"!

You know where to find this thread in the next days.

I was looking forward to seeing some constructive literature criticisms on Mrs Merkels new work but alas it seems as if it hasn't even been read but relying on simply following someone who has actually read it.

Sure i have seen this already with criticisms on that Gazan BBC programme where it also wasn't even watched but  just relying on someone else to make their view now yours.

Where did I day I hated Merkle Edy ?

Huh? What's that post all about?

Oh, that's about my 11:28 AM post, eh? That wasn't about you hating Merkel. That was about you liking to yadda at me for being a terrible meanie that dares occasionally comment on matters not exclusively concerning Germany.

For balance purposes, you should scold saddo hard here.

In 2015 I said she would wreck the continent, and she has.
Now shilling a living from speaking tours and a delusional book.

Why did Merkel wreck the continent and not the British and French with their colonies and subsequent immigration from them?

I feel like I asked you that about five to ten times. One day I might get lucky and receive some insight.

She delusional. She opened the borders and left them wide open for millions of illegals from hostile places to just saunter in willy nilly and then blamed the problems on Germans lack of will to change not her policy. On the positive side, she's a beautiful lady.

Do you also feel Germany and Merkel wrecked the continent more than the British and the French, Ronald?

If we take the time after the Austrians dragged Germany into two big wars. In the first half of the 20th century we did kind of do some pretty bad wreckage, admittedly.

She opened the borders wider than the gaping holes in the Letby case and then weaponized the Schengen zone against the rest of Europe. For the other countries there was no point continuing to enforce their own borders once Merkel had opened the German borders.

I meant Britain's role before 2015.

Colonies everywhere, arbitrary borders drawn upon losing the empire, helping create instable countries with lots of unnecessary internal problems, creating flight reasons, having extraordinary amounts of immigration from areas of former colonies and all that.

You guys probably also had a hand in some technology development that led to the invention of dinghys.

You can't lump me in with the British. Wales is only country left with proper English people in it.

The part about the English people is correct, but you will continue to be lumped in with the British until Wales declares its own independent republic or monarchy.

Does she mention her "vision" to have the cheapest energy source (nord stream) in the cabal and man it's manufacturing powerhouse with millions of Syrians.
How did that go ,Putin invaded and the Syrians ,much preferred German welfare to work.

It's nice to see that edy agrees that the continent HAS been wrecked...

.. edy, what policy do you think has led to this wrecking of the continent?

Strong and long delays in becoming more energy independent. Either because people neglected man-made climate change or outright denied it because they were very eager to make themselves the useful, often religious, idiots of the bad faith merchants of doubt because they wanted to be against the current thing of the libs out of pathological reasons.

As famous politician or so said once: It's the economy, stupid.

In particular Germany also has a few too many regulations that probably dampen the economy more than they benefit the people.

Importing millions of benefit users and demanding every country take their share has been quite an economy dampener
for a vast majority of the 28.

Not an economist, but I'd think for the economy it's actually a good thing and serves as an impulse if you have additional people that consume and produce. Including if a high percentage of those people are not in labour.

You can keep taking as many illegals as you want and there's no downside, it just keeps making the pie bigger - that's what I would say if I was a leftie nutter.

And the above is what you as a bad faith troll would write.

Ah well....I shall try again on another occasion. One day I will get lucky and learn why it wasn't the British and French that wrecked the continent in your opinion, saddo.

Bigger pie but the slices keep getting smaller, who could possibly have foreseen that Ron
