on average every 100th car is taken aside.

I guess because they are looking for human trafficker, with specialized transport cars....not your everyday border crosser!

Polish original colors are red /white /red.

That is interesting...Austria and Latvia use red/white colors too!

Austria at least has a nice story....the red stands for the blood of the slain enemies on the white clothes of the austrian victor! :)

Vicious??? You think so?

I think the red/white has maybe something to do with the land....something which Poland and Germany share....and eagles anyhow.....a nice thought! :)

It will be interesting to see what kind of coalition they will form.

The Greens, the Left and the FDP are out.....so much for tactical voting to keep the SPD at the front....na ja....

Why does the Brandenburg flag look like the polish flag? Even the eagle is similiar!

Ideals are important, they can be achieved.

They must be affordable for the state pockets!

To only demand more and more expensive ideals and a country will end like Greece (then) or Germany (now)....it's a tight rope to walk!

News / Flood in Lower Silesia in Poland - looks catastrophic [94]

I only just read of it in the german SPIEGEL....any news from the polish side?

»Coordination talks« between Germany and Poland

Bundeswehr offers Warsaw deployment in flood areas

www-spiegel-de.translate.goog/politik/deutschland/hochwasser-bundeswehr-bietet-polen-einsatz-in-hochwassergebieten-an-a-fef83466-effb-4f82-a682-0c8d7e717507?_x_tr_sl=de&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp

"So if you see German soldiers, please don't panic": Prime Minister Donald Tusk has announced possible German army assistance in Poland's flood-hit areas. Initial discussions on this have already taken place.

Germany has offered Poland the opportunity to send soldiers to the flood-hit areas. According to SPIEGEL information, initial talks have already taken place at the military level about possible administrative assistance from the German armed forces for the neighboring country. Now, it is being examined how the Bundeswehr can best support the local authorities. Details have apparently not yet been agreed upon.

When asked, a spokeswoman for the defense ministry confirmed that there were "coordination talks" between Germany and Poland. In general, the Bundeswehr has a lot of experience with flood operations, and the troops have regularly helped out in such situations at home with soldiers and heavy equipment.

We are waxing nostalgic about a white Europe.

Hmm....true.....powerful, successful, white western Europe....just won the Cold War....people wanted to belong to it, be part of it!

Now? The end of an age!

All that is necessary is to take Germany and the Netherlands out of the Schengen Area.

I guess scrapping the main pull factor, the social support, would be the easiest and most effective way.....only a safe, dry place to stay...basic medic care...three meals a day....if that isn't enough they don't really need it.

It should be known quickly that there is no easy free money in Germany to be had anymore....that should end this flood easily and quickly. Without having to make new treaties or to build new borders.

After that, reintroduce the Deutschmark and move the capital back to Bonn.

Why Bonn????

It seems there is a "red point" reached in Europe....maybe there truly is a limit to welcomed immigration in Europe!

The Dutch want out of the EU asylum laws....the first domino is falling....and many other european countries are not far behind!

War and slavery are signs of power, abuse of power, fight for power....whatever....if there were more powerful women they would go to war too!

I wonder if that what is now called "arctic" is in the future great land for new settlements....everything what is now just "warm" should become uninhabitable!

Russian Siberia should become heavily populated....people will invade this now "empty" land....someone should tell Putin to prepare! :)

15 dead ++ Thousands of households evacuated ++ Many missing

It's gonna get worse!

Flood drama in Europe! At least 15 people died in the floods in Romania, Austria, the Czech Republic and Poland. There are also numerous missing people in all four countries. While the situation in Germany is only tense so far, a state of emergency has been declared there.

The situation will remain dramatic over the next few hours. Heavy, persistent rain will further exacerbate the situation. Dams are threatening to overflow, rivers are flooding their banks, and villages and cars have already been swallowed up.

In Germany, and especially in Saxony, people are looking at the cities on the Elbe. The water levels are rising. But when will the flood wave reach us?

Well you have to admit

We just dropped out of the 20 most rich countries-list....slowly we begin to look like a third world country!

Ranking according to purchasing power

Germany drops out of the top 20 richest countries in the world

Germany is still one of the most powerful economies. But if you look at the gross domestic product adjusted for purchasing power, the Federal Republic is no longer among the 20 richest countries in the world......

Nevertheless, I'm surprised that Germans seem to trust their politicians a lot.

After Merkel everything new could only be better, we believed....the new gov started with lotsa hype and support....but well....you know what they say: "The higher they climb the deeper they fall!"

Unimaginable that this gov will still keep it together for another horrible year....

The moral of the story is always to look at what they do not what they say.

Not always Iron....it's just....in recent years (since Merkel) Germany has been extraordinarily badly led....we (and our neighbours) are paying the price, I know....

What can we say...MEA CULPA...MEA MAXIMA CULPA! So sorry...:(

Poland's Deputy Foreign Minister Bartoszewski: "This is not how you treat partners"

www-stern-de.translate.goog/politik/ausland/grenzkontrolle-zu-polen---so-geht-man-nicht-mit-partnern-um--35061032.html?_x_tr_sl=de&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp

From Monday, Germany wants to introduce border controls. Also with Poland. A heavy strain on relations, says Deputy Foreign Minister Władysław Teofil Bartoszewski. ....

I wonder....was an immigrant-welcoming Germany not always also a bone of contention with our neighbours? They should be relieved now....

....How will the planned border controls affect Poland ?
Negatively. And we were a little surprised because we had not been informed in any way beforehand. We found out about it when the German Interior Minister made the decision public. That is a somewhat unusual way of dealing with your neighbors.

How will it practically affect the everyday life of people travelling between Poland and Germany ? Negatively too. Our transport industry is one of the largest in Europe, and a lot of trucks cross the border every day. This means a big disruption. Germany has de facto decided to suspend the Schengen rules. We cannot be happy about that.

Some are already talking about an end to Schengen .
No, but that is the end of the spirit of Schengen and of European cooperation. We expect urgent consultations at EU level. You cannot surprise your neighbours with decisions like this. I know that there will also be a sharp reaction from Austria. That is not how you treat partners.


Don't sweat it, the whole situation is abit chaotic here and nobody knows anything....we have an unusual rare dim-witted interior minister who does everything wrong she only can!
Blame her! She is an idiot, she deserves it!

History / Why American military aid to Europe and Poland is important to America itself? [150]

But you can look for real sources, like the link I posted....not some politicial influenced translated opinion of something...but the real thing, from the developers and THEN look for all sides of it!

In Germany it's hard to get an unbiased opinion even more so in the original!

project2025.org - what exactly is so fascist about these points?

PS: German media scoffed and mocked and insulted Trump already before, as he was right with Germany's energy dependence on Russia and NATO-duty-shirking....they also all cheered Merkel and now we know what a deadlock her reign was for our country.....so their opinion is not much worth...!
