I see your point, but my question is why haven't the german people spoken up about this?
Merkel up to this point has been immensely popular in Germany, the Euro has been great for their economy and it is in the German nature to like order and efficiency.
Accepting refugees is just going to slot right into that way of thinking as the right thing to do, so they've gone along with it without really questioning it.
But Germany isn't one big blob of people, rural areas are quite a bit more conservative, and while they still see this as the right thing to do, they don't understand why anyone would not wish to integrate with the German way of life, the idea of being "separate" is alien to them.
And this is where Merkel is lying to them, nobody in Europe needs to accept anyone. We are quite capable of providing for them on the borders of Syria.
But doing that doesn't solve Merkels population crisis, so she's led Europe into believing that migration is the only way, but in doing so she will need to fool the rest of Europe into taking a few million as well. If it was just Germany doing this then it would look a bit suspicious.
Now Germany is torn, far right groups are voicing what people only say in private, Merkel can't back down because millions will be arriving next Summer too, but again the idea of not following a plan is anathema to them, so on they trudge in the hope that all this will just work itself out.
This has been allowed to drift because any dissent can be crushed just by invoking the ghost of Nazism, they remain so ashamed of this that they daren't do anything that would allow another European country to point the finger again.
She's being awfully naive here, she's looked at previous migrations of Jamaicans and Ugandan Asians and assumed because all that went well, then 10 million Muslims is going to work too.
But if you can flood an area with one culture then that town belongs to you, why bother trying to be German when you've essentially re-created your home country inside another state.
Everyone does this, China town, the Jewish quarter in New York, Paris, the little white enclaves in Spain. This works in Britain because nobody has had a reason to notice migrants before. But now we do have a reason because the entire world is looking at this one group every single day, and I don't think Germany will adapt easily to having two separate communities in their country.
