Not that we, of all people, believe in the German rule of law. It is common practice that deportations, for example, are usually carried out in exactly the same way in order to prevent any possible legal recourse. However, the fact that institutions such as the Public Prosecutor General’s Office in #Berlin explicitly ignore decisions by the Federal Constitutional Court and deliberately act contrary to them is something of a novelty in Germany. This says a lot about the political will to repress and the constitution of some German authorities.

Not from the Onion (from April 12)!

Berlin will compensate 113,000 Holocaust survivors in Israel in the form of $27 million (€25 million), according to the German finance ministry.

“Many Holocaust survivors were hit particularly hard by the Hamas attacks, whether through the loss of their homes, support systems in the form of care,” a German finance ministry spokeswoman said.

The Loreley Train Route that passes by the famous Loreley Rock.

  • Lorelei, the German legend of a beautiful maiden who threw herself into the Rhine River in despair over a faithless lover and was transformed into a siren who lured fishermen to destruction.

  • The color of exhaust you see coming out of a steam locomotive’s smoke stack indicates how efficiently it is burning fuel. Darker or blacker smoke is an indication that small fuel particles (coal, wood, fuel oil, etc.) have made it through the firebox unburned and are therefore wasted. Light or nearly invisible exhaust means that the locomotive fuel is mostly burned and transformed into heat, carbon dioxide, water, and trace elements. Factors affecting how efficient a locomotive burns fuel include the skill of the fireman on the engine, the quality of the fuel used, the design of the locomotive itself, and the amount of work the engine is doing. Similar concerns affect the efficiency of internal combustion engine locomotives as well.

England fans cause a stir singing controversial chant after being warned by police - Fan Banter

Ahead of England’s first game against Serbia, enhanced security measures have been put in place, with authorities classing the match as a ‘high risk’ fixture due to the potential presence of approximately 500 “hooligan fans” who could look to disrupt the proceedings both inside and outside the stadium.

There's a reason the English play in Gelsenkirchen, not much to destroy...

Zelensky set the trap that threatens to destroy us

#Zelensky #set the #trap that #threatens to #destroy us #Ukraine #NATO #US #UK #Germany #France #EU #Russia

"Bandera’s Ukraine, which has been furiously privatizing its remaining state properties left to it by Russia and the USSR, already has a large part of its valuable black lands in the hands of #Blackrock , #Monsanto and other U.S. interests. These are joined by energy, mining, agro-industrial and real estate ownership.

Now, to finance the war effort, the illegitimate Zelensky, who is currently usurping the position of president (I can already see the meaning of that kiss from von der #Leyen, the usurpers recognize each other), is preparing to sell what he still has left. The exigencies from the IMF and from financial agreements with the European Union always require privatizations and the businesses in question are, in some cases, important natural monopolies."

"More than 2,000 #academics have signed a letter demanding the resignation of #Germany’s #Education Minister over her attempt to #sanction scholars who supported pro-Palestinian students’ right to protest"

They said that “The withdrawal of funding ad personam on the basis of political statements made by researchers is contrary to the Basic Law...such political sanctions is a sign of constitutional ignorance and political abuse of power,”

Why there are no reporters in Europe like him any more?

They all have turned into cowards at best or genocide supporters at worst. The disgusting dirty and disgusting atmosphere created by Israeli supporters and right wing media owners not to forget the sold out politicians and indifferent public (on top of racism and islamophobia) have created a vaccume of strong, knowledgeable and brave reporters who are not afraid of telling the truth.

With Robert Fisk gone, The independent have also turned into a echo chamber of pro Israeli voices. German and Swedish media are not even worth reading any more and I get better news from Israeli media criticizing the fascist regime of Netanyahu than any of the so called progressives and liberals in those countries.

As Ahmad Shamloo the great Iranian poet said more than half a century ago : "strange time we live in my dear; they smell your mouth to make sure you haven't said 'I love you'".
