Talkback
Title:Merkel granting discount to Iranian state terror
Name:Jonathan S
City: FrankfurtState: Germany
When the Merkel government freed prematurely the Iranian state terrorist Darabi, who had assassinated four members of the Iranian opposition in Berlin, Merkel decided so against the rulings of a Berlin court which had called for at least 9 more years of imprisonment because the murderer had shown no remorse. And Merkel decided against the promises given to Israel not to give in to Iranian pressure without news about the fate of Ron Arad. With this soft stand against terror, no one must be wondered why 9/11 terrorists have found a safe haven in Germany for the preparation of the attack. There are first consequences: last October a young German from the state of Hesse was apparently the first Islamist from Germany to have been killed during fighting near the Pakistan-Afghan border. Now it is reported that the first suicide bomber from Germany killed 2 US soldieres in Afghanistan a few days ago.
