Angela's Chickens....
A 27 year old Syrian asylum seeker in Germany blows himself up at a pop concert. He failed in his asylum bid and had not been deported.
Angela Merkel's chickens are coming home to roost thick and fast aren't they?
Sad thing is the German authorities are hoping that it was yet another one-off incident of a mental patient blowing himself up.That he wanted to take dozens of others with him doesn't seem to register with them. I always thought 'genuine' mentally ill persons were only concerned with harming themselves,not others. These are not mentally ill,they are terrorists.

Re: Angela's Chickens....
It seems not to have made the headlines but in a small town in Southern Germany a man with a machete attacked and killed one person and injured two more yesterday.
Definitely not doing Merkel's chances of being re-elected next year much good after she invited the millions of refugee's? fleeing Syria etc. to
"come on zzee here"

Re: Angela's Chickens....
Whilst not knowing the full facts about these attacks on innocent prople all over Europe I find it strange that the first thing the authorities state is that is it not terrorist backed. To me it looks like the authorities are not willing to face the plain truth staring them in the face or maybe trying to save Mrs Merkles silly descion to allow the people free access into Europe.

Re: Angela's Chickens....
One of the things that I find quite bizarre is this morning's Media is suggesting with the bomber is because he was about to be repatriated to his point of entry into the EU which was Bulgaria this seems to have made hmm totally lose it I don't understand oh how the Lunatic with the gun obtained his gun and ammunition via mail order of what is known as the dark Web obviously in my naivety living in rural Hampshire I didn't know we had a dark Web

Re: Angela's Chickens....
Some of the rhetoric and speeches throughout the brexit campaign especially some of the we hate foreigner remarks made me think of the newsreel films I have seen on 1930s Germany and it left me feeling very concerned

Re: Angela's Chickens....
Any attack by other persons on other persons is by definitioin a terrorist act.
No matter how the authorities try to smooth it over calling it what suits them it will never change the fact that an act of terrorism has been committed.
Another knife wielding terrorist struck yesterday.


Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: Angela's Chickens....
This morning France suffered a further terrorist attack when in a small town somewhere near Rouen terrorist attacked a church and took hostages. Amongst the hostages taken was the 82 year old priest who was murdered by the attackers with some reports saying that he was beheaded. The terrorists were apparently shouting the usual ally akaba slogan on the steps of the church as they carried out the attack.
Methinks that very shortly there is going to be a revolt in France and Germany against there countries leaders over this constant ongoing terrorist attacks caused in the main by the stupidest EU open borders policy coupled with miss Merkels invitation for them all to come to Germany. Fish face in Scotland should be very aware of what she is wanting for Scotland if she insists on Scotland remaining in the EU.

p.s. Syrian refugees having been placed into safety on the Isle of Bute (what a beautiful, peaceful area it is) are now complaining that it is full of people waiting to die and there is nothing there for them. Well pizz off back to Syria if you are not happy.
