Wasn’t it just a few days ago that Germany said it was ready
to take in 800,000 migrants? We were
presented with pictures of Germans in football stadiums with large
banners (written in English and
not German or Arabic, for some
reason) proclaiming this desire.
Germany announced on Sunday that it
was invoking emergency powers to start protecting its borders, seemingly
reaching a point of overload after greeting with open arms tens of thousands of
migrants pouring into Europe, and urging other European nations to do the same.
A total of 12,200 migrants came to
Munich on Saturday, according to the German police….
It remains unexplained how and why this “crisis” of many
years suddenly has burst into international prominence. But this sudden about-face only raises more
questions.
I make no value statement nor pass judgement on any of
this. For the moment, I offer no
interpretation of the events beyond
anything I have written previously. I
just find it worthy of note.
