Den traurigen Niedergang der Union, ihre bedingungslose Kapitulation vor dem Zeitgeist und den allgemeinen Verfall unserer Parteiendemokratie erörtern, obwohl sie niemand darum gebeten hat, Arnulf Baring, Josef Kraus, Mechthild Löhr und Jörg Schönbohm. Redaktion: Alexander Kissler Die Krise ist da. Die Temperatur steigt. Die Zeit des Prassens ist vorbei. Und was macht die Kanzlerin? Sie boxt unsichere Bürgschaften durch – par ordre "de Mutti". Sie verspielt das Volksvermögen, materiell und ideell. Der Bürge Deutschland wird zur Gefahr für den deutschen Bürger. Was kommt danach? Inflation? Anarchie? Diktatur?

Most Western models suggest that in the face of open threats to the military's core interests, the army would have fought to keep the status quo.

Europe witnessed the greatest refugee crisis since the end of World War II and Germany became the primary refuge for Bosnians fleeing the fighting.

The story is told with precision and eloquence by William Walker, a journalist with intimate knowledge of Germany, his home for more than 30 years, and the Balkan region, where he worked often during the last two decades. "German and Bosnian V...
