If destroying your country and civilization is the right side of history, how bad can the wrong side of history be?
Obama piled praise on Chancellor Angela Merkel for being “on the right side of history” with her open-door stance on refugees, bolstering the German leader whose popularity is weighed down at home because of the influx.
Well I'm sure Germans will overlook all the refugee rapes now that Obama has endorsed it as the right side of history.
“Perhaps because she once lived behind a wall herself, Angela understands the aspirations of those who have been denied their freedom and who seek a better life,” Obama said alongside Merkel, who grew up in communist-ruled East Germany, at a news conference in the German city of Hanover. “I know that politics around this issue can be difficult, in all of our countries.”
Obama is a trifle confused.
East Germans were fleeing a left-wing dictatorship that didn't want them to leave to a country that did want to accept them because they preferred its way of life. Muslims are migrating to countries that don't can't accommodate them and whose way of life they hate for short term economic advantages and long term political and military conquest.
A decade into her chancellorship, Merkel’s approval rating is at the lowest of her third term, which began in 2013. Support for her CDU fell three points to 33 percent in an FG Wahlen poll for broadcaster ZDF published Friday, the lowest since November 2010.
Meanwhile Obama is attacking the UK's Cameron and standing with Merkel to maintain EU hegemony. Thereby he's further poisoning US relations with Europe but the same amateur diplos who ranted that we needed someone to fix our relations with Europe after Bush don't seem to notice or care. Right side of history can't be wrong.
