The move is the latest threat to the Schengen Agreement on border-free travel in continental Europe. A group of 188 MPs including many from Mrs Merkels own Christian Democrat party have prepared laws to fence off sections of the border. They say they will put them forward if Mrs Merkel does not come up with a solution to the refugee crisis within weeks. We must stop the flow of refugees. Considering a border fence should not be a taboo, Christian von Stetten, the leader of the rebels and a member of Mrs Merkel's party, told Bild newspaper. The proposals come after Rainer Wendt, the head of the German police union, called for a border fence over the weekend. Germany has suspended the Schengen Agreement and imposed temporary border controls in an attempt to slow the influx of refugees. But Mrs Merkel has refused to consider a permanent closure. She has repeatedly spoken out against a similar fence Hungary has built along its southern border to keep refugees out, and compared it to the Berlin Wall. Hungarian soldiers carry rolls of razor wire fence as they continue construction of a temporary fence at the border with Croatia Merkel's dilemma as Germany frets over refugees The chancellor has turned to Turkey to help stem the migrant flows, giving German backing to an EU deal that would give billions of euros in aid and a new liberalised visa regime to Turkey in exchange for stopping more Syrians from crossing into Europe. But despite positive talks in Ankara over the weekend, Turkey has continued to drive a hard bargain. Ahmet Davutoglu, the Turkish prime minister, said on Monday that his country was "not a concentration camp" and would not host migrants permanently to appease the EU. I said this to Merkel too. No-one should expect Turkey to turn into a concentration camp where all the refugees stay in, he said. The MPs' challenge to Mrs Merkel came ahead of a protest march that was expected to draw thousands of people onto the streets of Dresden to mark the first anniversary of the founding of the Pegida anti-immigrant movement. Pegida, which drew crowds of 25,000 at its height before collapsing earlier this year, has been trying to regroup around opposition to Mrs Merkels refugee policy. Some 9,000 people attended its protest last week. People gather for an anti-immigration demonstration, organised by Pegida, in Dresden last week In a further sign of growing tension over the refugee issue, a Libyan asylum-seeker was attacked and badly beaten close to the main government refugee office in Berlin. The 20-year-old man was found bleeding in the street by police. Meanwhile, in a reversal of stereotypes, another asylum-seeker was stabbed while trying to protect a teenage girl. There has been much concern in Germany that women may be in danger from young male refugees. But a 17-year-old Lebanese asylum-seeker named only as Mohammed intervened when he saw a group of young men threatening a 16-year-old girl in central Berlins Alexanderplatz, according to BZ newspaper. The group then turned on Mohammed and stabbed him, according to witnesses. He was taken to hospital where he is recovering from serious back injuries. In an unrelated incident, a 20-year-old Afghan refugee died after he was stabbed by another asylum-seeker during a fight at a refugee shelter in the central German state of Thuringia. Police have arrested an 18-year-old Afghan on suspicion of murder. Poster Comment: We have had lots murders and rapes and robberies from illegal aliens but it was over a long period of time so we are putting up with it. 188 MPs is not that many. They have 630 members. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top Page Up Full Thread Page Down Bottom/Latest

Best they very soon expel, or eradicate those invaders. Their very country is at risk. The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable. ~ H. L. Mencken
Are you writing from Germany, Horse? This news is typical of politicians. They'll instutute E-Verify or otherwise throw the hevy lifting on employers as if employers caused the problem, they'll build a fence as if the literal main border in question were the invaders' only means of entry, but they'll never revert to the sane border policies of half a century ago and enforce them -- in other words take charge like they're constitutionally required to. The 188 could simply have made a deal with the rest (or the Jues) to serve as lightning rod for public outrage.
Not a German. Their politicians are not responding at all to the situation. EU is Rothschild land.
