That's exactly what I would do, but I'd make damn sure I was ready for the rebound down the road. I've said it before in a couple of other threads a while back, I think the Muslims in Germany will become the Jews of the 1930s-40s. They are, unintentionally I believe, cultivating the rebirth of their own nationalism and I think it will get out of hand, only this time with the Muslims. I feel bad for the German populous, but not their elites/ruling class.

Agreed that it isn't the fault of the German people but of their politicians.


As far as who the targets of German Nationalism will be, I'm thinking the main ones will be the politicians though Muslims may end up being the ones who get it at the street level.

People may harass Muslims but I think politicians will be the ones swinging from lamp posts.

What do you mean? Scapegoated for problems for which they were not responsible? Then systematically murdered?

While the scapegoating might happen, there are some key demographic differences. Jews had been persecuted in Europe for centuries, and had been scapegoated before. The Muslims in Europe do not have that history of persecution, and the problem with outright persecution is that it is the precisely reaction Islamists want, to justify their actions post hoc. In addition, Jews made up only 0.75 percent of Germany in 1933, about 500,000 out of a population of nearly 70 million. The Islamic population of Germany is much larger, at 4.2 percent, with most Muslims being of Turkish origin. Unless they repatriate the analogies to Jewish persecution do not hold in my estimation.
