Germany: Merkel Gives Speech Attacking Free Speech

57

“This house will and must oppose extreme speech,” says Merkel. What speech does she mean? Is she going to crack down on jihad plotting? Of course not. Merkel silences opposition to jihad, terror, and Jew-hatred, and strong-arms Mark Zuckerberg to censor, blacklist and suspend any criticism of her jihad migration policies on Facebook. That’s the speech she is going to crack down on. Germany is finished as a free society.

“Merkel Gives Speech Attacking Free Speech,” by Bronson Stocking, Townhall, November 29, 2019:

German Chancellor Angela Merkel addressed the Bundestag recently to warn the German parliament about the dangers of free speech.

Story continues below advertisement

“We have freedom of expression in our country,” Merkel argued. “For all those who claim that they can no longer express their opinion, I say to them: If you express a pronounced opinion, you must live with the fact that you will be contradicted. Expressing an opinion does not come at zero cost.”

In 2018, Germany enacted a strict ban on certain speech that elites of the day consider “hateful.” Under the new law, sites can be fined up to 50 million euros, around $55 million, for not promptly removing so-called “hate speech” from their platform.

“But freedom of expression has its limits,” Merkel warned. “Those limits begin where hatred is spread. They begin where the dignity of other people is violated. This house will and must oppose extreme speech. Otherwise, our society will no longer be the free society that it was.”

Merkel’s speech was considered unusually emotional for the German chancellor and also confusing to everyone who knows that you either have free speech in a country or you have politicians with the power to ban whatever speech they don’t like….

” and traitorous muslum collaborators ”
They call these collaborators “Dhimmis”. The only good news about them is when the Mudlums take over a country or a people….the first ones they kill are the Dhimmis….they rightly figure that if they would help them take over their own people,they are likely going to do the same thing to them one day….so…off with their heads.
As an aside….I found it curious and apropos that the word we call the Democrats (Dimms) is very close to the word Dhimmis…..plus, they fund Antifa and other radical, anti-American groups.

This evil old hag is trying to shut down the AfD and any Germans who speak out against Islam, terrorism and mass migration from the mideast/africa. They need to impeach this dangerous nutjob.

If Germany survives and doesn’t get turned into Syria or Pakistan, she’ll be remembered by history as Hitler 2.0, and Obama will be remembered as the Muslim Brotherhood infiltrator who nearly destroyed America, same goes for Trudy in Canada.

I’m just disgusted and appalled at the traitorous leaders we have today. I don’t really care that they’re the elitist pigs who are eating at the taxpayer trough, but couldn’t they at least get Islam right?

How many Osama bin Ladens, Mullah Omars and other miscreants created by Islam do they need to see before they wake up and recognize them as the real threat rather than their own citizens warning them about it?

That sir is the 64’000 dollar question, “how many … do they need to see”. The implied focus of your comment is that the rest of us see what’s obvious in this so how come they don’t. These are elected officials that must swear an oath to their country, yet behave as though the electorate are to be dishonored. It generates a lot of questions and suspicions of conspiracies that need to be looked at closely, because their decisions and actions are clearly not in the best interests of their countries. What and who’s agenda are they serving then, and why?

I find it impossible to believe that they were unaware of the effects of mass migration, and especially of a people that have never demonstrated any inclination towards assimilation. They couched the sales pitch for it all on the back of human dignity and obligation, and, with the help of a painfully obvious bought media, demonized anyone as a bigoted hater if they simply questioned it. Is it just a coincidence that those who decades ago planned a new world order, prioritized the need to destroy the nation state via an “inside job”, and have they not nearly completed this mission?

That all this and more is happening in the backdrop of biblical prophecy fulfilling its “end of days” forecast, is beyond the realm of coincidence. I have no longer any doubt that we have entered the final stage of this dispensation and are as close as we can be to the cusp of His return. I have documented over 20 such end-time prophecies and many of them are highly detailed and complex; some have already fulfilled, some have partially fulfilled waiting to complete, and some are set up to complete, but they, along with world events, are all streaming towards a singular convergence – a culmination of western civilization as it has been known. These once Christian nations are mostly in apostasy now, and evidence is clearly pointing to them already coming under judgement. That which we see and are perplexed by and opposed to, are symptoms of a society that is dying by the absence of the Hand that once blessed it. Take care to not fight against God’s will, but to fight in line with it.

The Globalists have known for decades how to manipulate the growing use of global communication to administer their evil agenda. The almost anonymous UN are at the centre of this despicable plot that allows population replacement and totalitarian rule. The evidence is everywhere and the more UN based legislation shuts down the heart and souls of the majority of free thinkers, the quicker the West will surrender. THEY HAVE TO BE STOPPED

So many things tear at me in response to “stopping” them. Are they evil – the core behind them absolutely is, but I also believe at least some of the mid-tier to lower level leadership are duped or don’t want to think they are on board with bad people. The Pope would be a good example of this; either he is knowingly Satan’s pawn or he is misguided (self-induced or otherwise), but he is clearly on board with their “front” agenda of “peace and security”, even in spite of the fact of Catholic suffering at the hands of Islam. Regardless, anyone who still thinks it’s business as usual is deceiving themselves; we are well into a new paradigm on all levels: socially, culturally, civilizationally, and most importantly, theologically (I might even add, economically, as we are in new territory of non-repayable debt levels and related instruments).

My point is that TOO many things of major significance, particularly biblical prophecy, are screaming that an “end” is coming (for the record, I do not count climate change amongst these other very real developments). Were prophecy not unfolding in convergence with world events, as it has been doing, then I would be advocating all-out-w-ar against their agenda. As it is, I don’t believe what God has sanctioned (yes, sanctioned) can be stopped, nor should we be focusing our efforts towards trying to do so. There are things that perhaps can be done that might lessen the severity of what’s coming and it is to those things I think we should focus our efforts on (protecting as many rights and freedoms as we can), but I don’t believe “they” can be stopped. An “event” of major proportions is not far away and it will serve as the catalyst to usher in the final stages of what’s to come. Self preparation, in all things, is at it’s highest need now; putting that off would be a terrible mistake, again, were prophecy not saying so, I would say differently.

You don’t think they aren’t here also? It’s always just under the surface….and every time one them kills someone or rapes or is violent…..the Main Stream Media and papers keep it out of the news….If they report it at all they don’t give the name of the perpetrator and don’t show their arrest pictures.
The only three news outlets I know that tell us about it is Pamela Geller and Ann Corcoran’s two sites: Refugee Resettlement Watch and Crimes, Crooks, and Criminals.
Disqus or one of those sites shut down RRW for about a month until she could get it back on line elsewhere. Fascism is the first tool of Dictators and Totalitarianism.

Germany has long had a prohibition on expressions of Naziism. Given the country’s history, I think that is appropriate, but it’s not a good general model to follow.

Robbing and Murder of 6.000.000 jewish Europeans – of which the recent generations are still profiting – lead into what Germany became through that infernal Monster called Merkel.
German voters voted for Hitler, and they constantly voted for the next spawn of hell – the satanic Merkel.
Germany slowly but steadily is mutating into a hellish country not unlike the islamic countries.

And they wonder why some members of the EU have concerns?
Why would a nation hand over any powers to a foreign group? Consider how long it takes to change the direction of the EU Parliament. EU’s greatest fear – May Brexit be a roaring success for the British!
Is membership of Turkey a certain outcome? When will the EU send troops to support Turkey’s ambitions.

Free speech is free speech. It is either completely free or it is not free speech at all. Free speech + restrictions = no free speech at all. It is that simple.
And it is not for politicians to decide what people are allowed to say and what not.

Merkel is a Globalist stooge whose intentions through the edicts of the UN and their cohorts like the EU are crystal clear. Population replacement and abject surrender of Western culture in favour of totalitarian governance where Islam (easy to control) will become the dominant ideology. THEY HAVE TO BE STOPPED.

Having listened to that speech, I’ve drawn two conclusions from it.

The first being that it was the speech of a woman who has been too long in charge of her country, and now as the end of her time in office draws near, she’s observing the first gusts of the political whirlwind which is going to sweep across her Germany destroying all peace and her treasured multi culti multi racial ” enriching ” legacy.

The second thing to note was her effort to bind, and reinforce by such political rhetoric, her heirs and successors to what her vision has driven her to sow.

The wind.

On another matter, NATO is meeting in the UK this week, Germany is now as much a military and political liability as Turkey is. Under mutti, the German military has gone to pot, American tax payers ought to insist Germany and it’s fellow travelers are cut free, they cannot stand Trump, you’re all being milked and they’re no longer grateful.
