The fictim was a woman, not a man. A helpless woman who was murdere from a lowlife.<br /><br />2.) The murdere was NOT german. He was russian. He was a "aussiedler" how we call it. His grandfather MAY be german, but he lifed in russia. And a german law makes it possibble to come back as german when you have german ancestors.<br />The russian and the turks have many unfinished buissenes between them, they hate each other.Vogelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19209018.post-49705170773659125302009-10-28T20:29:39.049+00:002009-10-28T20:29:39.049+00:00With some luck I can tell from a German's face...With some luck I can tell from a German's face from where he or she comes, geographically/ethnically, sometimes even whether he is Catholic or Protestant. There are so many different ethnicities (dare I call it races?) here. With all the horizontal mobility it will one day soon be gone, but specifically in the country it still exists. How could possibly somebody who isn't one of us see that. How can we, on the other hand, be expected to see the subtle differences between people from different continents.<br /><br />On a different note: You can see the tragic history of the Polish people in their faces. Some are undiluted Slav, some are like farmers from my native Westphalia (that's the Swedish element), some look at you through black or green Asian eyes, and some look Jewish although they aren't.<br /><br />I think that's fascinating. People are fascinating.The_Editrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07529769143608862966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19209018.post-15376588434605357872009-10-28T14:43:12.470+00:002009-10-28T14:43:12.470+00:00I guess they could have been referring to Pakistan...I guess they could have been referring to Pakistanis, but they were clearly Muslims.<br /><br />Honestly, I don't see a truly distinct difference between many Indian/Pakistanis and Arabs. Some Indians and Pakistanis look very Indian, true. But, many look like Arab people to me.<br /><br />It's like how I can't tell the difference between Viet Namese people and Korean, even though I am surrounded by both groups. I understand their cultural differences, but I don't understand their "racial characteristic" differences.<br /><br />They see something I don't see.Pastoriushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03169561459129778670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19209018.post-38589302694554540772009-10-27T15:10:40.284+00:002009-10-27T15:10:40.284+00:00My guess is that they extended the term "Asia...My guess is that they extended the term "Asian" for a politically correct purpose on Middle Easterners. I was amazed when I discovered that "Asian" means in English English the people we would call in German "Indian", whereas "Asian" would be the description for East Asians, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, the lot. I've never seen before that the term "Asians" was used to describe, well, Arabs.<br /><br />We have two different kinds of Vietnamese in Germany. In the West the former refugees, in the East the former Communist contract workers. (In the study I mention in the above entry I found the statement that many contract workers came to East Germany to escape the rigid control in Communist Vietnam. I mean the former GDR was the most Stalinist of all countries in the Soviet orbit. How moronic does one have to be to issue -- in 2007 -- such a statement?) Those in the West are better assimilated and a majority have acquired middle class status. In the East this is not the case, but they are hardworking, mainly with their own small businesses, and independent. Yes, it is mainly Islam, but there seems to be a tradition among the East Asians that lets them be healthily ambitious, non-complaining, non-meddling and forward-looking, something which goes beyond any religious affiliation.The_Editrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07529769143608862966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19209018.post-48622313877021194102009-10-27T13:13:06.668+00:002009-10-27T13:13:06.668+00:00Editrix,

In a word: nobody gave a damn.<br />Did the Vietnamese riot in the face of such REAL German coldheartedness, of such TRULY blatantly unjust sentences? Did they accuse the Germans collectively (if at all) of racism and hatred? Did they make demands? You must be joking! Instead, they went on with their clothes shops, their illegal cigarette dealings, their fruit and vegetable stalls, in a word, with their lifes*<br /><br /><br /><br />I respond: This is a phenomenon I noticed years back, prior to 9/11. My wife and I were watching BBC News one night (I have no friggin' idea why) and a story came on that "Asians" were rioting in the streets. I commented to my wife, "What the fuck? Asians are rioting? Why? Did the government tighten the restrictions on opening liquor stores?"<br /><br />I was dumbfounded. <br /><br />ASIANS DO NOT RIOT.<br /><br />Then, in one shot, I saw that on the BBC, "Asians" means what we call Middle Easterners here in the U.S., and oh me, in my xenophobia, right away, I knew what the problem was. It was MUSLIMS, not ASIANS.<br /><br />And, of course, to be a Muslim is NOT a racial attribute. Christian Arabs do not riot either. They open stores and gas stations, etc., and they live their lives. It's only those who are infused with the ideology of hatred which is Islam who riot and carry on. <br /><br />This idea that Islam is a racial classification is an insult to all races.Pastoriushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03169561459129778670noreply@blogger.com
