According to calculations by Die Welt, over 1.5 million Germans, many of them well-educated specialists, have left the country over the last decade, with the outflow accelerating with the refugee crisis facilitated by Chancellor Angela Merkel's open door immigration policy.
The German government has begun a campaign to force some of the newcomers to leave, drafting legislation which would force those who are not eligible for asylum status to exit. But authorities' efforts to curb immigration are facing only partial success. In August, German Migration Service head Frank-Juergen Weise told local media that another 300,000 migrants were likely to arrive in the country before the year is out.
Chancellor Merkel's approval ratings have dropped to historic lows in connection with the migrant crisis, which has also led to fissures within her own Christian Democratic Union/Bavarian Christian Social Union political alliance. Last week, CSU leader Horst Seehofer warned that he might not invite Merkel to the CSU's party meeting next month, citing disagreements with the chancellor regarding immigration policy.
Russian observers have said that events appear to be degenerating into an unfortunate situation where "Germans are being turned into strangers in their own country, with no improvement to the situation anywhere in sight…The sad irony is that disenchanted Germans are being forced to leave the country because Merkel does not want to leave office. Immigrants from Germany feel a sense of hopelessness, seeing how the government destroys its own country and its history with its suicidal immigration policy."
Meanwhile, the country's new residents have fortified their positions. Last week, it was reported that thousands of migrants have taken the Federal Migration Office to court for granting them a qualified asylum, rather than full refugee status.
Earlier this month, an 18-year-old Syrian refugee caused widespread social discussion after writing an op-ed in a major German weekly, calling on those who don't agree with the government's refugee policy to get out of the country. "We refugees are fed up over the angry citizens (Wutburger)," he wrote. "We refugees…do not want to live in the same country with you. You can, and I think you should, leave Germany. And please take Saxony and Alternative for Germany [AfD] with you."
Over the past two years, supporters of Chancellor Merkel's immigration policy have defended it by saying that it was necessary, above all, to give refugees a 'sense of hope.' Now, with frustrated Germans fed up with the migrant crisis leaving the country en masse, the question that naturally arises is: which political forces inside the country will campaign on returning hope to German citizens?

| 0 | Edit | Delete For me, it' sad to see the sub-Saharan Africans as unwanted immigrants, at least in a measured way, notably when they are Christians. For all the markedly-different colour of their skin and distinctive physiognomies, our shared religious culture makes them very like us in their thinking ; if with a higher emotional intelligence than us.

Wrong! First of all they are JEWs, and they don't believe in equality. They understand it doesn't work, but i serves their purpose of destroying the white cultures. That's all there is to it.

Even Asian countries will not accept so many refugees as it is clear that country can not handle them and moreover you can not drive them out later.
This is a price that you have to pay for blindly following USA policies. Are you people afraid of USA or what, you just dance as per their tunes. It seems even Europe has been fooled and trapped by the USA for their benefit. You think these Africans will ever leave Europe? This is the seed for terrorism and it is only going to get worse for Europe.
Your self cultivated fear of a Russian invasion has made you mindless and in that fear you are just following USA instructions.

I tell you something. If i where in your country i would fight to the last breath. But many are programmed to come to the European continent just to get bennefits and not being connected to theyre home country. This is a strategy that is verry old.
Maby you should consider to go back to your country and not leave your ppl alone and be a real fighter.
I live in a country where i was born. And i will defend it till i die.
The only thing you have to Fear is Fear itself.

Unfortunately, all we human beings are, at bottom, tribal, so we don't need much to persuade us that foreign-looking immigrants are unwelcome ; and thanks to the infinite greed of our own dear elites, competition for jobs, particularly lower-paid ones is very much likely to persuade us that they are distinctly 'surplus to requirements' as immigrants and fellow nationals.
But as I say, a great shame, the more so , since the tribal colour-prejudice still obtained as far back as the fifties and sixties, when the West Indians were invited to immigrate to the UK, not from fraternal love, but to do jobs others were less inclined to go for - and they were more Christian than us. They well named us, 'Babylon', though we, in the UK, have sunk a lot deeper in the mire since then, thanks to Baroness Lady Cardboard, aka Thatcher.
Clearly, particularly since we caused their loss of home and livelihood, we ought to share the burden as fairly as possible, but It was certainly unrealistic to allow unlimited entry of immigrants to Germany. In the UK, some people are raising Cain because of Poles and other former Eastern Bloc Europeans reducing the job market. That too is exacerbated by the fact that they have a genuine work ethic, never generalised in this country with its hideously- predatory, right-wing political class. Who wouldn't want to employ them ?
