Maybe I should label myself to be one, as it's much more annoying to have my German citzenship questioned in every 2nd post and to be asked whether I'm a Muslim once per week as well

Seems like anob believes only foreigners and Muslims disagree with him and/ or nazis (everyone in here seems to be one).

Nice Sunday dress.

98 % of the "Sudetendeutschen" voted for their Nazi-Party in the Czechia of 1938.

Sorry, german link.

Grenzenlose Heimat für "Sudentendeutsche"?

By far most of the old Nazis, that were active in Politics after 1945 came from the Sudetenland.
To this very day, the Sudeten organisations stick to their nazi claims and opinions.
But still, they pretend to have suffered under Nazism, when in reality they were the worst of that bunch.

The Yellow Star was an invention of Karl Hermann Frank, The "protector" of Böhmen and Mähren, also the right hand man of Heydrich.

He also was the one to order the Lidice massacre.

Sudetendeutsche are the only organisation in todays Germany to want "their country back" when in fact 80 % of the present members never lived there and again 80% of these never even visited the claimed lands.

The vast majority of them are CSU members and voters.

2.2 million Nazi votes.

Take those away from Merkels Government and she´d be gone.

Now, with a background like this go on calling others Nazis.
Your very own posts prove you to to be one yourself.

Re: EU pressures czech president to sign Lisbon treaty

@all

The title of the book from Mrs. Miroslava Ludvik means something like: "Silesian and Moravian traditional costumes. Gouache-pictures of the year 1814". The CSU is a political party in Bavaria with strong roots in democracy, federalism and individualism. Heydrich (one of the most important Nazis who organized the holocaust) was killed from some Czech citizens and as a revenge the Nazis murdered the inhabitants of Lidice.

In the eyes of the extraterrestrian user "stillalive" this all seems to show that murder and displacement are no crimes if Germans are victims of murder and displacement. Although he is identifying himself as an "antifascist" I call such people just simple "left wing Nazis".

Anyhow this all has nothing to do with the European Union, because it happened a long time before the European Union was born. It would be a paradox if the Beneš decrees - an unbelieveable provocation of every form of morality - would become part of the European Union while itself it is the result of a very hard work not to go such wrong ways anymore.

YouTube - a-ha - Foot Of The Mountain
The CSU is deeply rooted in "Vetternwirtschaft" and nothing else.
For that reason, they gladly accerpt anyone with irrational and nazistic views like the "Sudetendeutschen"
As long as they keep blaming the evil Czechs while hushing up their own (and far worse) evil doings they won´t interfere with the bavarian Spezi-mentality.

Especially not because they received four times as much "compensation" as did the all the victims of the Nazi regime taken together. Cause enough to vote for the party which supports that.
Vote CSU and go to church every day and all your sins are forgiven.

How much, dear friend, did you embezzle from the state ?

You present yourself as a feller who will not accept anyone right of himself in the political spectrum, while labelling anyone to his left evil.

If you want to see a true Nazi, just have a look in the mirror.

To accept the Lidice massacre as just a "revenge" of "the Nazis" ( you should have stuck to the truth there and admit, that it was the Sudeten-Nazis ) shows your true mentality.

If, at the day of reckoning you wait for your name to be called and it will not happen, I am sure, you will call God a Nazi too.

@stillalive

I don't see a way to give you a real answer. Whatever I could write would not help you.

Re: EU pressures czech president to sign Lisbon treaty

Merkel voiced opposition to Blair as EU Council President. This adds to the already existing criticism from the Benelux countries against him.

I think Blair is no politically dead, at least as far as it comes to this position. Do you agree?

Well as I guess you meant now, I have to agree.

I can't imagine him turning things over in his favor without Merkel on his side, sorry to say, but not even if he had all the chicken littles from Eastern Europe on his side.

I think he would have been a weak EU council President anyway, given that his own party probably will loose the next UK election and so he wouldn't been able to have the backing of his own EU homecountry

I said that before, neither Merkel nor Sarkozy wan´t Blair. Not even the brit Conservatives want him.
And for good reason.
Blair would definitely use this position to heavily influence and hamper an eventual Tory Government.

BusinessDay - Opposition for Blair?s EU bid

Seems at present Blair has only three fans left:
Gordon Brown, Berlusconi and Lech Kaczyński.

I assume, Merkel will bring Mary Robinson into the game.

Juncker shot his own foot and will have only Belgium to back him.

So it seems to me, the first elected EU-President will be either austrian or irish.
Could well be an irish-austrian tandem with Wolfgang Schüssel doing the foreign part.

Whatever, we´ll soon know more.

What would be very weird would be a nomination of Vaclav Klaus, just to get him to sign the treaty.

It´s by no means certain, that the Tories will win in Britain.
If Brown steps down due to "health reasons" in February or March, Labour might yet have another chance. Especially as no one seems to like Cameron.
He put his foot in too many piles of crap lately.
And politically he is just an Edward Heath remake.

Well, even in Luxembourg Junckers bid is rather seen as a coordinated attempt to bring down Blair. Very few people here believe seriously that Jean Claude Juncker ( who has just been reelected in June) wants the position in Brussels, at least now.
It is a EU habit that the first names circulating are never getting the positions for which they are nominated. Juncker has experience enough to know that. Blair probably not.

Re: EU pressures czech president to sign Lisbon treaty

All Sudetendeutsche are/were Nazis? Just lost a bit of respect for you Wolfgang. IMO, the Sudetendeutsche had every reason to be pissed after WW1 and after WW2.

According to Dutch news sources the chairman of the European christian Democratic fraction EVP called the current Dutch prime minister 'a very good candidate' (perhaps some of you recognize him from his 'Harry Potter' looks).

He's part of the largest movement (the christian democrats, merkel and sarkozy prefer a Christian democrat over a socialist) he has a lot of international contacts and he's not a very powerfull figure, meaning that he won't encounter alot of resistance from the larger players.

He hasn´t openly declared that he´s a candidate though (nor am I convinced that he's the best, he's a good politician, but hardly the best).

Just thinking out loud.
