    Machete attack in SW Germany, Reutlingen,...........pregnant woman killed by Syrian.......... Not sure of Jihad connections..........yet. Maybe just a dispute, but refugees are causing plenty of troubles there for whatever reason.

    My God, Germany is on fire lately. First France, now Deutschland!

    I'm only 68 years old, and I didn't live through WWII, but since I've been around I've been here, this is as bad as I've seen it.

    I've got a cousin who is a cop in Germany who's been planning a vacation here for almost two years now and with all the problems that they're having with the refugees, he said that all vacations are cancelled until further notice.

    And the Democrats want to bring thousands and thousands of them here with no plan to check them as they arrive or follow up on them

    Regarding the Dawson's Field hijackings: on 6 September 1970, that same day, my mom, sister and I were on Swissair 110, Geneva to NY. Heard about the SR100 hijacking when we arrived at JFK. There were 3 or 4 questionable passengers on our flight (not profiling or anything.......), my mom was on full alert.

    I remember guarding a motor pool full of M-60 tanks and being told to be on the lookout for a possible attack by the Badder Meinhof Gang/Red Army Faction as they had thrown a fire bomb a few days earlier at a nearby US Kaserne, among other things.

    That and three more subsequent tours in Germany always had a terrorist threat against the US from one group or the other. Most attacks back then were directed toward the US interests/their politicians/businessmen and not regular German civilians.

    Many speculate or feel the "German Guilt" was driving their sudden charity toward refugees/immigrants, others say it is for cheap(er) labor. For decades plenty Turks have lived and worked in Germany because of the shortage on men after WWII, economic boom in Germany and low birth rate.

    Yeah, but meanwhile back at the French front, a Catholic Priest was killed by ISIS at a Catholic Church in France. The French and German People have had enough of this. I don't think I'd want to be a Arab Muslim in Europe right now. Revenge is mine sayeth the People of the Lord...

    Yep, they need to send some a those Rag Heads to find their Virgins.

    Shush, I wasn't including the war with the IRA. That went on a long time. But the on going conflict with ISIS and the other Radical Islamic Organizations hasn't seen as frequent attacks against the West as has been happening lately. It's almost once a week somewhere nowadays. And they aren't just doing it somewhere else. They're doing it almost weekly in our own cities.
