Germany Election: Merkel Defends Open Borders Policy, Ready To ‘Act The Same Way Again’
German Chancellor slams Poland and Hungary for opposing EU-German ‘Migrant Resettlement Plan’
With less than a month until the German elections, Chancellor Angela Merkel defended her Open Borders Policy for illegal migrants on German television over the weekend. “German Chancellor Angela Merkel defended her controversial decision to admit over a million refugees in 2015, and insisted she had no regrets, saying she would take the big decisions ‘the same way again,'” British newspaper Daily Express wrote.
She also placed the blame ironically on the border restrictions already in place — prior to the autumn of 2015 — to check the unregulated inflow of the refugees into Europe. “She criticized the so-called ‘Dublin Regulation’ on refugees, which requires those seeking asylum to register in the first EU state they enter,” German public broadcaster Deutsche Welle reported. Merkel’s arbitrary suspension of the Dublin Regulation, in fact, started the migrant influx from the Middle East and North African countries that continues to this day.
Deutsche Welle covered German Chancellor’s recent TV appearance:
Chancellor Merkel defended her decision to open German borders in 2015, while also urging EU countries to show solidarity on refugees. (…) In an interview published on Sunday, German Chancellor Angela Merkel stood by her resolution two years ago to provide refuge to those fleeing from warfare in Syria and other countries.
“I would take all the important decisions of 2015 the same way again,” she told Germany’s Welt am Sonntag newspaper, saying they had been necessary to “avert a humanitarian catastrophe.” (…)
She criticized the so-called “Dublin Regulation” on refugees, which requires those seeking asylum to register in the first EU state they enter.
German Chancellor Merkel also took an aim at the Eastern European countries for blocking the EU’s soviet-style centralized resettlement plan for migrants:
[R]efugees should be distributed among the EU member states in solidarity, she said.
Calls for redistribution of refugees in the bloc according to a quota scheme have previously met with considerable resistance, particularly from eastern European countries such as Poland and Hungary.
Merkel’s latest statements show how little remorse she feels for her actions.
Europe, not just Germany, has paid a heavy price for Merkel’s insistence on the open borders for millions of migrants.Germany and other European countries have been battling with a migrant crime wave. The continent has been rocked by a series of deadly Islamist terror attacks carried out by migrants.
With a double-digit lead against her socialist rival Martin Schulz, Merkel remains media’s favorite to win the September 24 vote. Alternative for Germany (AfD), the only party challenging Merkel’s disastrous EU and Migrant Policies, is pegged below 10-percent in most opinion polls.
Despite surging in the polls, the German leader faces some serious public backlash on her campaign trail.
Last Saturday, she was booed by hundreds of voters at an election rally in the eastern German state of Saxony-Anhalt. Her entire speech was drowned out by hundreds of angry protesters telling her to “get lost”. Her voter outreach in northwestern German city of Bergisch-Gladbach last week, did not go well either as hundreds of angry protesters whistled and chanted the AfD slogan “Merkel must go”.
The protests at Merkel’s rallies have become so frequent that UK’s Daily Express correctly noted: “[Her] election campaign team are well used to boos during their tour of Germany.”
Only the next month’s election result will show if these angry protests are staged by a tiny and resentful minority, or do they reflect a rising popular resentment among the voters in the run-up to the polling day.

Mutti Merkel is a clear and present threat to the German people as well as all of Europe. She needs to be behind bars before it is too late for Germany and her neighbors.
It is arguably already too late for Germany, France, and England.
Don’t worry people. Merkel has plenty of security. She will be fine.
My God, what a dangerous bozo she is. But somebody keeps electing her for some reason.
German voters, you know what to do.
It’s unfathomable to me, that she is in the lead.
Baffling.
It’s almost like the German people voted for Merkel to make up for the fact that they also voted for Hitler. Call me insensitive, but I feel like the influx of millions of Muslims is God’s way of punishing Europe for looking the other way as 6 million Jewish people were murdered.
Merkel could probably make a perfectly good argument for her policy, based on the numbers—German birth rate, cumulative worker-hour trends, immigrant crime rates, etc. Though she doesn’t seem to have made that argument in public. (Not in any language I happen to read, anyway.)
Perhaps she figures German voters are as confused by actual numbers as American voters are. Or maybe she’s just out of her mind. Kind of a toss-up.
All the world really asked of Germany post-WWI and post WWII is that they stop trying to murder everybody and run the world, but no, they just WON’T stop.
What do merkel and obama have in common ?
THE DESTRUCTION OF THEIR NATIONS !
Look at the bright side; Germany still has elections.
Much like America had one last chance to save their freedom in 2016, let’s see if the Germans understand the same.
Man, can you still imagine if hillary clinton had been elected president of the United States? Wes Craven or George Romero when should only have had a story scenario as horrifying.

Didn’t a famous German once say- “the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, but expecting different results?
The Lefties that are a substantial part of every Western nation
all have the same goal: To see their respective country go under and to submit to a foreign, radical force, wiping out individual freedom.
For decades these lefties pinned their sick hope of being “liberated” on Russia. When that possibility faded, the Left’s wisdom directed their hope to the Muslim world.
It is only the U.S., that resists this trend, despite the country’s news media and academia being in the pocket of the world of the Merkels.
“No fascists, no wall,no USA at all”, our lib friends think that hits the nail on the head.
This is not new by any means. What is new is that this is openly
touted by the Left.
Good thing Trump won the election: Think of all the guns and ammo Dear Leader Soetoro acquired during his eight years in office. That stuff is in good hands now. (Barry eat your hearth out)
Any progressive who thinks Islam is liberating is a fool, unless the liberation they seek is the liberation to place their boot on the necks of others, which Islam approves of.
Instead of sending inbred, militaristic, despicable, insane, unsanitary, illiterate, Satan following, government dependent terrorists to destroy Europe, why not send Merkel to a Muslim country?
