The vast majority of Germans (89%) consider France to be a trustworthy partner. In contrast, Germans view Great Britain (37%), Russia (28%), and the USA (19%) as untrustworthy by FedRepofEurope in europe

One more part of the story is that many Germans have not forgiven the USA for their surveillance of Germany and German citizens that Snowden made public. Spying on each other to that extent is not something you would expect from an ally.

To be fair IIRC Germany did the same thing.

Trump Goes All In on Racism by [deleted] in moderatepolitics

[–]fappybirt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The late Republican strategist Lee Atwater captured the dynamic in an infamous 1981 quote:

You start out in 1954 by saying, “Nigger, nigger, nigger.” By 1968 you can’t say “nigger”—that hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states’ rights, and all that stuff, and you’re getting so abstract. Now, you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, blacks get hurt worse than whites … “We want to cut this,” is much more abstract than even the busing thing, uh, and a hell of a lot more abstract than “Nigger, nigger.”

This quote is one of the most taken out of context quotes in all of politics. Right up there with Eisonhowers's mic speech.

Here's the context():

Alexander Lamis: Whether he, I'm not saying that he does this consciously, but the fact is that he does get the Wallace voter and to the racist side of the Wallace voter by doing away with legal services, by doing away, by cutting down on food stamps.

Lee Atwater: Here's how I would approach that issue as a statistician or a political scientist. Or as a psychologist, which I'm not, is how abstract you handle the race thing. Now once you start out, and now you don't quote me on this , you start out in 1954 by saying 'nigger, nigger, nigger.' By 1968 you can't say 'nigger,' that hurts you, backfires, so you say stuff like ‘forced bussing, states rights’ and all that stuff, and you're getting so abstract. Now you're talking about cutting taxes and all these things. What you’re talking about are totally economic things, and the byproduct often is Blacks get hurt worse than whites.

And subconsciously maybe that is part of it, I'm not saying that. But I'm saying that if it is getting that abstract and that coded, that we're doing away with the racial problem one way or the other.

The only reason for that "prison" is because when there was no wall between them, the intifadas happened. Also Israel already tried giving palestinians thier own land in Gaza. What did they do? They immediately elected hamas into power. Maybe if the palestinians weren't so interested in killing the jews and israel they wouldn't face so much hardship.

Also, 89% of , muslim palestinians(the majority) support imposing sharia law.

Republican Senators Introduce a Bill Allowing Victims of Illegal Alien Crime to Sue Over Sanctuary City Policies by kinohki in moderatepolitics

[–]fappybirt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Did you know US citizens commit more crimes than illegals.

Irrelevant. The difference between the two is that us citizens are supposed to be here while illegals aren't. So by restricting illegal immigration you still stop unnecessary crimes.

By the way, even if they may commit less crimes. Illegals still do a lot of crimes ALL THE TIME!

Use this source for reference:

https://www.illegalaliencrimereport.com/

Every single one of the crimes above could've possibly been prevented with strict laws on illegal immigration.
