The deputy chairman of the German police Union, Jörg Radek, on Monday sharply rebuked Chancellor Angela Merkel’s government for failing to restrict air traffic from the coronavirus-infected country of Iran.“If we close the land border, then we must also restrict air traffic,” Radek told the news outlet RND. He added that it would be best if certain planes “did not even start.” Radek said that in connection to travel from the Islamic Republic, “you have to take measures that this is not possible.”

Iran is at the epicenter of the coronavirus in the Middle East. Iranian authorities reported that the death rate has reached 853 and that 14,991 people are infected with the virus. The real numbers of deaths and infections are believed to be significantly higher due to the opaque nature of reporting in a society deemed not to be free.Merkel’s administration has permitted flights from the US-sanctioned IranAir to land in German cities.Germany’s Transport Ministry said on Monday that it planned to halt flightsfrom Iran and China.The announcement came as incredulous commentators on social media could not understand the decision by Merkel’s government to permit Iranian regime flights to enter Germany.Germany is Iran’s most important European trade partner.

German-Iranian dissident Kazem Moussavi tweeted on Monday: “Shame on Appeasement! Politics allows the Corona-Mullah-Airline to land in Germany.”A video circulated on social media showing Iranians arriving in Germany without any meaningful anti-coronavirus precautions. Writing on the popular news and commentary website The Axis of Good, Anabel Schunke wrote that the video was shown by, “an online branch of Westdeutscher Rundfunk, which was set up specifically for refugees and is therefore not aimed at the German population at all.”She noted that “Unlike in other countries, there are no previous tests or even a mandatory quarantine for travelers from Iran.”

They try to burn down the refugee center, rattle the gate, throw bottles at police officers and display the IS flag! One could almost think that these scenes originate from Greece or from prisons in Italy. But we are in the middle of Germany – more precisely in Suhl, Thuringia.

It all began with a confirmed diagnosis of corona in an first intake asylum facility in southern Thuringia: the illegal immigrant is said to have recently arrived in Germany via Sweden and Hamburg. Because of this, a quarantine was ordered for the 533 residents and the home was temporarily sealed off. But the measure, which in times of Corona seems not at all unusual, apparently drove the asylum seekers to a fury: some of them started rioting and prevented inmates from entering the dining hall in order to force a hunger strike. They are said to have tried to leave the facility through the sewers to get to the nearby town.

But not only that: A group of asylum seekers even threatened to set the asylum centre on fire, displaying a flag of the terrorist organisation Islamic State! “Today, at around 11:40 a.m., about 30 people, mainly young men, of the nationalities mainly citizens of Georgia and the Maghreb states, gathered in front of the main gate, as I said, who tried to pass the gate while displaying an IS flag and were in a very aggressive mood,” said police spokesman Wolfgang Nicolai. He said that “especially children were placed in the front of the gates”.

To calm the situation, up to 50 police officers were deployed to monitor the facility. Police trainees were also involved.

In view of the conditions currently existing in the initial reception facility in Suhl, the question arises as to what happens if similar incidents occur in other so-called refugee shelters. The danger that Corona will also break out in other shelters is omnipresent, a further restriction of public life is to be expected. It is hard to imagine that the capacities of the security forces and medical staff are sufficient to keep at bay angry illegal immigrants who do not want to comply with the protective measures against the spread of COVID-19.How brutal they sometimes act when they don’t get their way can be seen at the Greek-Turkish border. In Italy, several people have already died in prison riots, particularly those instigated by immigrants from the Maghreb countries.

Randale und IS-Fahnen: Chaos in Suhler Asylheim wegen Quarantäne

By Fletch Daniels

Political correctness is not just harmless virtue-signaling navel-gazing by a bored “elite” first-world populace.  It is both a weapon and a disease that kills.

On January 31, on a day when the entire national press corps was fully focused on unserious impeachment theater, President Trump declared a national health emergency and implemented a travel ban to and from China. 

Apparently unhappy that Trump wasn’t curled up in the fetal position, all the usual suspects on the left screamed bloody murder, convinced he was trying to distract from their important issue.  Only a couple countries followed suit, since most were afraid they would be labeled as xenophobic or branded with the dreaded scarlet R. 

Joe Biden called it “hysterical xenophobia.”  He’s still thundering about Trump’s xenophobic bans during his occasional lucid moments.

Yet, this single action bought incredibly precious time, perhaps the most valuable commodity when trying to defend citizens from this virus. 

It is the reason we aren’t already like Italy or Spain, societies that have been wrecked.  It gave us time to observe and study the disease and to implement the best defensive measures.  It drove home the critical importance of social distancing as the single most important step in slowing its spread. 

It also bought time to overcome our bloated and ineffective bureaucracy while marshalling private industry. 

Quite simply, putting American lives first while shrugging off political correctness saved many lives, the number of which we will never truly know. 

Even the ridiculous controversy over the name of the illness is an ode to political correctness.  It is important to identify this illness with its Chinese origins for the already clear reason that it makes it that much harder for Chinese, Russian, and Iranian propaganda blaming the United States to take hold. 

When justifying endless funding for nonsense programs, liberals are quick to claim that if their favored program saves just a single life, it justifies the cost.  But political correctness killing thousands, or even millions?  That’s just fine.

This is one of many examples where political correctness produces a lethal outcome.  The same dynamic is at work in the immigration debate. 

There is nothing racist about enforcing borders or building a wall.  This type of thinking aids power-hungry Democrat politicians eager for new votes at any societal cost, while paralyzing opposition.  It helped facilitate the rise of MS-13 and other dangerous gangs who have done so much damage near where I live in northern Virginia and led to a significant increase in violent crime. 

There are plenty of Kate Steinles out there, whose precious American lives were sacrificed on the altar of political correctness. 

Another important story playing out even as the Wuhan flu sucks all oxygen out of the room is Turkey’s attempt to flood Greece with Syrian migrants, which has created a border crisis. 

Turkey knows they have Europe over a barrel on this issue since European countries have been unable to articulate why they don’t want massive numbers of new Muslim migrants flooding across their borders, nor have they taken the necessary actions to stop it.  It’s a form of blackmail since they know Europe will provide concessions to prevent another flood of immigrants they cannot and should not handle. 

For Europe, the train has already largely left the station.  Islam is there in force and growing, largely because political correctness hampered any meaningful response even after the negative impacts on culture and society were becoming obvious to everyone. 

It is going to get exponentially worse as the demographics shift dramatically in the years ahead.

I found it interesting when Dr. Anthony Fauci commented at a press conference on the virus, “We would like the country to realize that as a nation we can’t be doing the kinds of things we were doing a few months ago.”  He’s right, of course.     

But Europeans have long been changing their behavior permanently to account for their changing societal math.  When I lived in Germany in the 1990s, there were regular and fantastic festivals and communal gatherings. 

When I returned twenty years later, there were noticeably fewer festivals and they weren’t as cheery or heavily attended and usually involved far more security and active screening.    

What had changed?  Could it be incidents like that in which a terrorist drove a truck through a Berlin Christmas Market?  The vibrant and different European cultures had also taken on a drab sameness.

If a brutally contagious disease that kills a small percentage of people is going to change society’s behavior in the short-term (and it should), then a far higher percentage of radicals in a country’s Islamic community is certainly going to change behavior and culture, particularly as the overall numbers grow in society.

Even if 90% of that population were perfectly peaceful and wonderful citizens, the math would still be staggeringly bad.

And yet noting the implications of this within society is considered off-limits.  So, people die.  Or they learn to live in their houses in fear and avoid large gatherings, which sounds kind of like the current environment from the Wuhan flu.  All because their leaders were too weak to even acknowledge reality.

Political correctness is not a harmless phenomenon that sprang up of its own volition.  It is a poisonous weapon intended to stifle debate and to shut down logical thinking.  It is a mass exercise in denying reality and a close cousin to the identity politics that is a prime animating spirit of the left.

Political correctness deems it appropriate to put a man in a boxing ring with a woman if he identifies as a woman, even as he gleefully cracks the skulls of his physically weaker opponents.  Most people are stunned at the idiocy of such a decision even as leftism continues to use political correctness cover to advance their toxic agenda.         

This was a cancer that metastasized unchecked for far too long, and it became a valuable tool for the left.  They embedded it in everything the culture now produces.  And then President Donald Trump showed up on the scene and took a sledgehammer to that noxious political bludgeon, inspiring other Americans to follow suit.  That’s one of a few reasons the left despises him so much.   

Americans were tired of the doublespeak that directly contradicted what was so obvious to them.

Luckily for America, the president was unwilling to be handcuffed by political correctness even as many other foreign leaders made fatal mistakes.  We are at an inflection point in history.  The Wuhan flu demonstrates once again that we can no longer afford politicians who worship at the altar of political correctness or attempt to weaponize it to overturn society.  Stated another way, we no longer have the luxury of electing Democrats.

The anesthesiologist and resuscitator of the Bergamo hospital in Italy has sounded the warning: “We are at the limit of our resources. And the average patient is now 50 years old.”

At the Papa Giovanni XXIII hospital in Bergamo, where Dr Lorenzo Grazioli works as an anesthesiologist and resuscitator, the incoming wave of Covid-19 patients never subsides.

To date, the doctor said in an interview with the media: “We have accumulated so many patients that if there should be a drop from here I don’t see it yet. It’s a long wave.” In resuscitation , the patients are many and “very complex to treat”.

“Our problem is where to put them. We are at the limit of our resources. The network is saturated,” said Grazioli.

Regarding the average age of the patients , the anesthesiologist raised the alarm: “The first were elderly, but slowly the age is decreasing. I see many men even forty years old. The average is now fifty years old. They need mechanical ventilation.”

He said at the moment “all those who need intubation are intubated”. But Grazioli also adds: “We have had an exponential increase in patients.”

And on the possible duration of the virus, the resuscitator warned: “It depends on us. On all of us. If we convince ourselves that we can stop the virus by staying at home, it will die down. Otherwise, no: it will continue and we will pay the consequences.”

As a growing number of countries close their borders to fight the coronavirus pandemic, the European system of open internal borders — a cornerstone of European integration — is on the brink of collapse.

The so-called Schengen Area, which comprises 26 European countries, entered into effect in 1995 and abolishes the need for passports and other types of control at mutual borders. It is a key practical and symbolic achievement of European integration and is now falling apart.

In a move packed with political significance, Germany, the largest and most powerful country in the European Union, on March 16 introduced controls on its borders with Austria, Denmark, France, Luxembourg and Switzerland after it registered 1,000 new cases of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in just one day.

Anyone without a valid reason to travel, German Interior Minister Horst Seehofer said, would be turned away at the borders. Travelers with symptoms of COVID-19 would be refused entry as well. German citizens and anyone with a residence permit, however, will be allowed to reenter Germany.

“Protecting our population also requires measures to reduce the risk of infection from global travel,” Seehofer said. “We are dealing with a very aggressive and fast-spreading virus. We will have to deal with it for months. As long as there is no European solution, you have to act in the interest of your own people.”

The decision to impose border controls represents a major reversal by the German government. Just a few days earlier, on March 11, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said, “In Germany, we believe that border closings are not the answer to fight the spread of the Covid-19 epidemic.” Her sentiment was echoed later that day by German Health Minister Jens Spahn, who stated, “We are not going to get rid of the virus by closing our borders. The virus is already with us and we have to get used to the idea.”

On March 15, the German newspaper Bild reported that Merkel was still blocking all attempts by members of her cabinet to impose border controls. The infighting, however, had cost Germany valuable time in trying to contain the spread of the virus.

Writing for the influential German blog Tichys Einblick, commentator Ferdinand Knauss, explained that Merkel was blocking border controls because the dogma of open borders is an ideological pillar of Merkelism:

“In the face of the corona crisis, there were apparently discussions in the Federal Government about what most of our neighboring countries had long since done: consistent protective measures at the borders. Several of our neighboring countries — Denmark, Poland, Czech Republic, Austria — have largely closed their borders. In most countries, people from at-risk areas are strictly controlled upon entry. Not in Germany. You do not have to guess very long who prevents this. Only the Chancellor can do that. But why is she doing it?

“In that fateful year of 2015, the ‘open borders’ became a conditio sine qua non [indispensable condition] for the continuation of Merkelism. That is why the dogma must be maintained. Merkel knows that the instruction to close the border, in general to take consistent national measures to protect her own citizens, would be tantamount to her own declaration of political bankruptcy.

“So, as citizens become aware of the threat and their demand for protection increases, the corona crisis also becomes a crisis of Merkelism. It already is, as Merkel’s rejection of border protection measures shows. One of the decisive questions will be how the media, which are still largely loyal to Merkel, and the political and social establishment weigh in: The morality of openness to the world versus the protection from threats. The greater and more painful the risk of corona, the harder it will be to neglect the need for protection.

“Merkel is now fighting. But as always in her chancellorship, she is not fighting for her country and its citizens, for which she is responsible. She is fighting for her power, for her legacy. When the citizens come to understand this, the corona crisis will have been Merkel’s last fight in the political arena.”

Merkel’s stance had left Germany increasingly isolated, as a growing number of Schengen countries have introduced border controls:

• Austria. On March 10, Chancellor Sebastian Kurz announced controls along the border with Italy and a ban on the entry of most travelers from there. Kurz said, “The utmost priority is to prevent the spread and thus the importing of the illness into our society. There is therefore a ban on entry for people from Italy into Austria, with the exception of people who have a doctor’s note certifying that they are healthy.” Interior Minister Karl Nehammer also announced a ban on all air or rail travel to Italy.
• Slovenia. On March 11, Health Minister Ales Sabeder stated that the government had closed some border crossings with Italy and started making health checks at those remaining open in order to combat the spread of the coronavirus. He said that citizens would only be able to cross the border in six places while all other roads that crossed the border would be closed. Normally more than 20 crossings are open. Passenger train transport between the two countries has also been stopped and most bus companies have canceled routes to Italy. Sabeder said that foreigners with Slovenian residence permits would be allowed to enter Slovenia if they had a certificate that they have tested negative for coronavirus during the previous three days.
• Poland. On March 13, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki announced that, as of March 15, only Polish citizens or people with a Polish residence permit would be allowed to enter the country. Everyone returning home from abroad would be quarantined for 14 days. All international inbound passenger flights or trains are banned, but freight transport is not affected. “The state will not abandon its citizens,” Morawiecki said. “In the current situation, however, we cannot allow ourselves to keep borders open to foreigners.”
• Switzerland. On March 13, the Swiss government reimposed border controls with other European countries. Switzerland, although not a member of the European Union, is part of the Schengen zone. Justice Minister Karin Keller-Sutter said that travel restrictions from Italy were aimed at preventing Italian patients from seeking access to Swiss hospitals. Asylum seekers were also subject to the restrictions. Swiss citizens, holders of a resident permit as well as cross-border workers and people transiting through Switzerland are still allowed to enter the country.
• Denmark. On March 14, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen imposed border controls on all traffic by air, land and sea until at least April 13. Danish citizens are allowed to enter but any non-Dane without a valid reason for travel will be denied entry. “We stand on uncharted territory,” Frederiksen said. “We are in a situation that looks nothing like what any of us have experienced before. It is going to cost us all. If we do not do this, we risk that the costs, human, health and financial, will be far, far greater.”
• Hungary. On March 16, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán announced that, effective immediately, all passenger traffic into Hungary would be halted and only Hungarian citizens allowed to enter the country. Previously, the government had imposed controls on the country’s borders with Austria and Slovenia. All train travel was halted between Hungary and Croatia, Slovenia and Ukraine.
• Spain. On March 16, Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska decreedthe reestablishment of controls at all land borders. Only Spanish citizens, people with Spanish residency and cross-border workers will be allowed to enter national territory by land. The measure does not affect the transport of goods.

The Czech Republic, Estonia, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania and Slovakia, in a bid to combat the spread of the coronavirus, also imposed border controls. Other European countries that are not part of the Schengen system, including Albania, Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia and the Republic of North Macedonia also introduced border controls.

The Bulgarian Foreign Ministry, which advised its citizens to avoid travelling abroad, described the current state of affairs:

“The situation at the land borders of European countries is constantly and drastically changing, which makes it impossible to travel to or from Bulgaria with all modes of transport.

“With regard to the prevention of the spread of the coronavirus, there is almost no country in Europe that has not at the moment introduced restrictive measures — border closures or separate border crossing points, enhanced border controls, shutdown of flights, closure of airports.”

The break-down of Europe’s system of open borders has been met with anger by those in favor of European integration. During a March 13 press conference in Brussels, Ursula von der Leyen, head of the European Commission, the administrative arm of the European Union, warned member states not unilaterally to close their borders:

“The Single Market has to function. It is not good when Member States take unilateral action. Because it always causes a domino effect. And that prevents the urgently needed equipment from reaching patients, from reaching hospitals and the medical personnel. Ultimately, it amounts to reintroducing internal borders at a time when solidarity between Member States is needed.”

In a desperate effort to save the Schengen system, Von der Leyen on March 16 proposed a 30-day entry ban into the European Union. The idea apparently was that if the EU’s borders were closed to the outside world, individual member states would not have to close theirs.

Ironically, just a few days earlier, Von der Leyen had condemned the March 11 decision by U.S. President Donald J. Trump to impose a 30-day ban on continental Europeans traveling to the United States. “The European Union failed to take the same precautions and restrict travel from China and other hotspots,” Trump said. “As a result, a large number of new clusters in the United States were seeded by travelers from Europe.”

On March 12, Von der Leyen issued an angry statement:

“The Coronavirus is a global crisis, not limited to any continent and it requires cooperation rather than unilateral action.

“The European Union disapproves of the fact that the U.S. decision to impose a travel ban was taken unilaterally and without consultation.”

Von der Leyen now says that she will present the EU heads of state with a proposal to ban “unnecessary trips” to the Union. The entry ban would initially be for 30 days but could be extended if necessary. “The fewer trips there are, the more we can contain the virus,” she said.

Anja Krüger, the pro-EU business editor for the German newspaper Tagesspiegel, noted:

“It is breathtaking how the borders in Europe are closed in the wake of the corona crisis, how one country after another seals itself off. The pandemic shows how fragile the European Union is….

“After the pandemic subsides, will everything be the same as before, as if nothing had happened? The question is how far the corona crisis is capable of an ad hoc destruction of a slowly growing European awareness among the people in the EU member countries over the years.

“Much will depend on how the crisis is managed. However, the fact that the return to nationalism was carried out quickly and firmly will arouse desires among opponents of European unification. What goes once, goes again and again.”

In a March 13 press conference, the president of Italy’s hard-hit Veneto region, Luca Zaia, said that Europe’s borderless zone was “disappearing as we speak.” He noted that the stringent border controls imposed by Austria shows that Schengen “no longer exists and will be remembered in the history books.”

The Belgian government ordered surgical masks for the Klein Kasteeltje center for asylum-seekers in Brussels a month ago, at the same time that it was telling Belgians that they only needed to wash their hands to protect themselves from COVID-19, or the coronavirus.

Belgium’s Health Minister, Maggie De Block, is also the Secretary of State for Asylum and Migration. De Block placed an order for surgical masks for the migrant center in the amount of 30,000 euros, according to a report from SCEPTR.

At the same time, De Block and virologist Marc Van Ranst were telling Belgians in television interviews not to panic, because just washing one’s hands was enough to prevent a coronavirus infection.

As of Sunday, Belgium has reported nearly 1,100 confirmed cases of coronavirus infection, and Belgium’s medical staff are suffering from a shortage of masks.

To deal with the emergency, last week the Belgian government placed an order for 5 million surgical masks from a company in Turkey that were supposed to be delivered by Sunday at the latest. In yet another government failure, the masks never arrived, and De Block admitted today that they had been defrauded by their Turkish supplier, and that chances were “minimal” that they would ever receive any, according to another report by SCEPTR.

Given this situation, Belgium has a real crisis on its hands now, as it currently only has 500,000 masks in stock. As an emergency measure the government has requested that private citizens with extra masks to donate them to the hospitals.

The fact that Belgium thought of the safety of migrants before that of its own citizens is ironic, especially since, as Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán recently pointed out, immigration is what brought the coronavirus to Europe in the first place, as reported by Voice of Europe.

The European Union’s single market is on the brink of a dramatic collapse as the deadly coronavirus outbreak continues to grip the bloc, Italian prime minister has warned. Giuseppe Conte said European leaders will have to come together after the crisis to “rewrite” the rules of the EU’s flagship policy. He accused Brussels bureaucrats of leaving businesses and households at risk from financial meltdown by not sanctioning sufficient rescue measures. “The approved measures are not sufficient,” he told Italian daily newspaper Corriere Della Sera.

Damage will be serious and widespread. A true ‘reconstruction plan’ will be needed.

“After the coronavirus nothing will be as before, we will have to sit down and rewrite the rules of trade and the free market.”

Mr Conte has already unveiled an economic support package of £22.7 billion, with a cabinet meeting scheduled today to see if new measures can be approved.

The Italian leader said: “We are responding within rules that will allow our economy to face the costs of the emergency.

“We are ready, if necessary, to intervene again to relaunch the country.”

Italy is the second worst hit country after China, where the coronavirus originated late last year.

The outbreak shows no signs of slowing as it emerged the death toll had reached 1,809 by yesterday, increasing some 368 in a day, the largest daily rise to date.

The total number of cases continued to rise, reaching 24,747 after a jump of 3,590 in 24 hours.

Mr Conte said it was important to “scrupulously” respect the bans imposed on school, shops, sporting event closures and ordering people to stay home except for essential travel.

“Scientists are telling us that the outbreak has not reached it peak, these weeks will be the most risky, and the maximum precaution is needed,” he added.

The European Commission has vowed to look at how its single market operates after the coronavirus crisis.

A spokesman said the bloc must prioritise on ensuring goods, especially medical products, keep flowing between countries.

He said: “We need to make sure that the single market actually works that it keeps functioning in order to supply the goods in particular that are required in this context.

A crisis like the one provoked by the Coronavirus has as we see impact on many policy fields and I believe that all public authorities will be reflecting on what are the lessons to be drawn once we’ve come out of the crisis.

“But at the moment we’re focused on ensuring we can meet the needs of patients of those who care for them and more widely of citizens who need to continue to carry on their lives in Europe.”

With Europe now the focal point of the coronavirus pandemic and daily patient numbers now exceeding those at the peak in China, European Union leaders are fighting an uphill battle to keep the common market functioning. As more and more countries reestablish border controls within the normally border-free Schengen area, the EU has its work cut out for it.

“The single market has to function,” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said, cautioning against unilateral actions.

“For any measures to be effective, they need to be coordinated at EU level. Member states, especially neighboring ones, need to work very closely together. In this way – and it is the only way – we can make sure that our citizens receive the health care that they need immediately, wherever they are at the moment.”

A furious row has erupted inside the EU following a lack of coordination in the bloc’s response to the coronavirus.

Several member states have taken the extraordinary decision to shut down their borders despite calls from von der Leyen for countries to avoid “blanket bans”.

On Friday, the World Health Organization said Europe was now the “epicenter” of the coronavirus infection with almost 30,000 cases, with more cases now recorded on a daily basis in Europe than at the peak of the epidemic in China.

Von der Leyen is urging EU countries to stick together.

“The European Union can withstand this shock but each member state needs to live up to its full responsibility, and the EU as a whole needs to be determined, coordinated and united,” von der Leyen said. “Certain controls may be justified, but general travel bans are not seen as being the most effective by the World Health Organization. Moreover, they have a strong social and economic impact, they disrupt people’s lives and business across the borders.”

She also announced that on Monday the European Union will issue a public procurement tender to verify existing healthcare stocks and respirators and will also issue border policy guidelines for member states. The latter, however, may be next to impossible to enforce as individual governments have an obligation to their own constituencies to protect their safety. Now, nations are establishing border controls unilaterally or at best in coordination with their neighbors.

Despite the demand from Brussels to avoid blanket travel bans, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Hungary, and Poland have all moved to shut their borders in response to the threat. This threatens to erupt in a revolt between EU member-states and the leadership in Brussels over the response to the coronavirus outbreak.
