It's funny/. runs so many "Your Rights Online:" articles with its moderation scheme.
The scheme is utter and total bullshit that does nothing more than stifle and dilute expression and the exchange of ideas.
What a paradox.
Is this before or after we make slavery reparations for slave-built infrastructure that didn't survive the Sherman campaign?
Reparations is a very interesting concept.
You don't even need to go any further back than the 1960's to look for possible acts of deprivation.
At any rate, I don't think it's workable.
The only thing that is workable is equal access to the American Dream.
The European Union is not a single sovereign State as such.
I am not only a USian but a patriot in the truest sense.
I have lived here and abroad.
But, I love the US and prefer to live here.
New York City, Tokyo, San Francisco....very very dense...very very prosperous. Density is an issue to a degree, but the Germans don't feel they are overcrowded as such.
And oddly enough it is the Germans themselves who are calling for more immigration. A declining birth rate and an expanding economy, among other factors, necessitate this.
Personally, I don't care where the immigrants come from. But, it might lesson the tension and ease things a bit if Germany where to purposely try and attract Americans of Germanic ancestry back to the "Mother Land" as it where.
It would also have the distinct advantage of raising Germany's political, economic, and pop status.
As to Israel's immigration policy, it is horrific and hypocritical to say the least. Interestingly enough, Israel accepted a large number of fresh converts "South American Indians" to fill the gaps in the occupied territory settlements.

While I do applaud your effort at trying to appear reasonable, there is no doubt that you harbor anti-Semitism and delusions of Deutschland Ueber
Alles in the worst sense.
As to you charge that many cry wolf and use the charge of anti-Semitism to obfuscate, I agree whole heartedly.
The total cost of the War in terms of human life is said to be around 61,000,000.
6,000,000 is an estimate of the number of Jewish lives lost.
There is some debate.
But, it really doesn't matter in terms of culpability whether it was 6 or 6,000,000 or even 60,000000.
There can be no excuse, no justification for murdering innocent people.
What I can't understand is what drove the Germans to do this.
Germany's problem was its total disregard for human rights and its woeful underestimation of the US's resolve and abilities.
First Nazi doesn't necessarily = German And German definitely doesn't = Nazi. Not even in the context of The Third Reich.
Were and are the Germans a strong and amazing "people"?
Yes.
Is Israel?
For its young age, absolutely they are and their collective lot grows each and every day.
Is it the result of racist views such as German "Racial" Supremacy or Zionism?
No, to the contrary, it's in spite of it.
The US is by far the strongest single country on the Earth. And, although not a Unified State as such the E.U. is an up and coming second.
The US's strengths are many. The principle ones being the protection of the "Individual" from the "Majority" and our willingness and indeed hunger for Immigrants and their traditions.
Germany is coming around and although it exhibits xenophobia to some extent, has a healthy and growing immigrant population.
Israel does have diversity of a sort both in terms of religion and ethnicity. There is a twist in that if one is a Jew he or she is a Jew first not "Black", "White", "Asian"....
Israel struggles with Zionism in some very surprising ways and for those who are interested in the State of Israel and her fate would be greatly served by reading its dailies and the other multitude of publications that are published by her citizenry.
Although I do appreciate and respect your great love for Deutschland and her peoples, I am very put off with the thinly veiled tone of anti-Semitism and White Supremacy that is replete throughout your post.
Ya!!! You tell em garcia (6573)
Next thing you know they will try to steal our land, kill our livestock, destroy our natural resources, and then (after their best efforts at genocide fail) they will have the audacity to put us in concentration camps (euphemistically called "reservations") and relegate us to the scrap heap of humanity.
Good think'n!

Right. A little cut and paste a little masking tape and voila!!!!!!! Not really censorship. Just....you know....creative double speak.

Yep, that's right. Thanks for the help.

Nope..strickly and independant.
