In German cities, over New Years Eve, the "chickens" of mass migration came home to roost. Gangs of Middle Eastern and North African men - asylum-seekers - gang-groped and raped women on the streets of Cologne and elsewhere.
Why Chancellor Merkel thought you could import a million men from a Middle East culture that treats women like cattle and have those men suddenly become well-behaved "good Germans" is a puzzle. As anyone halfway smart would predict, the immigrants are not behaving as polite guests.
If this massive miscalculation doesn't cost Angela Merkel her job, we'll have to conclude the German electorate is brain-dead. See what Der Spiegel writes about the all-too-predictable events.
Later ... Merkel knows she's in trouble politically, and has started sounding more condemning, more threatening. See a Daily Mail (U.K.) story for details of her response. My guess: too little, too late.
