Pot Calls Kettle Black?

BERLIN, Expatica.com

Mata Musing:

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm sure tired of being lectured by the Euro's about "tolerance" and "diversity". Talk about the pot talking to the kettle....

i.e. below's report which includes comments that Germany has roots in Christianity... DOH! Aren't they one of those nations "fearful" of our Christian Commander in Chief?

Note the consideration of deportation for anti-German speech. Whoa... can you imagine the international beating we'd take if we ousted Michael Moore?? Hummm... it might be worth it tho. He sure won't go away willingly since it would affect his income.

Further proof of the pot calling the kettle black lies in the decidedly untolerant immigration policies of so many EU membership states by comparison to the US (much to my chagrin...).

Next time someone mentions how mean the US is, and how wonderful and diversified the EU states are, you may want to pound them with some facts. Obviously our MSM won't.


BERLIN - German opposition and government members reacted with anger Wednesday to calls by the Greens party - which serve in Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder's coalition - for establishing a Muslim holiday in the country.

Bavarian state Premier Edmund Stoiber, a member of the Christian
Social Union, slammed the idea as "sending out a totally wrong signal."

Opposition Christian Democratic Union (CDU) leader Angela Merkel
- who is the daughter of a Protestant pastor, said: "Germany is a country with
Christian and Western roots. This identity must be reflected in our holidays."

There are about 3.4 million Muslims living in Germany out of a
total population of 82 million.

In a related development, officials were considering whether to
deport a Turkish Muslim preacher in Berlin for making strongly anti-German
comments in a mosque which were filmed and shown on TV.

The preacher, who has been identified only as Yakup T., was
shown in ZDF public TV at the Mevlana Mosque in Berlin's heavily Turkish
Kreuzberg district saying: "These Germans, these atheists, these Europeans don't
shave under their arms and their sweat collects under their hair with a
revolting smell and they stink ... Hell lives for the infidels! Down with all
democracies and all democrats!"
