I am a German gentile and I was brought here by a Jewish friend.
I am a friend of Israel and America, I believe them to be the guardians of our Western culture and I do NOT believe in a "moderate" Islam. I do not believe that "Old Europe" will be able to survive on its own either.
I am a technical translator by profession, my hobbies are huntin' shootin' fishin' and at my age, more sensible women are walking their grandchildren.
I hope this helps to understand where I am coming from.

Where in Germany are you from?
Hello Ambiorix!
I am living in a small town near Zwickau in Saxony. That is in the former GDR. But I was born and raised in West Germany. The culture shock was (and still is) amazing.

Do you have grandchildren?
No. If I had, I would probably not prowl around in the woods with some crazy yapping terriers. ;)

Hello Nora :)
Hello there! I know your site, Goldfasan, although I have never posted there. The anti-Islam brotherhood in Germany is so small, you may know me as the Roncesvalles (http://editrixblog.blogspot.com/)-Blogger.
Glad to meet you!
-
Thank you for your kind welcome, Hail Columbia and Jasmina and everybody else!
I have noticed to my delight the wealth of topics here, apart from the political ones. I didn't expect that. To be honest, I just registered because my friend urged me to. Now I am glad I have.

Welcome, Nora!
I love your display picture!
Thank you, Mills!
The photo was taken by a professional photographer when they were little, the PhotoShop job I did myself. It really turned out well. (Immodest I'm not!)

Hello Ambiorix!
I am living in a small town near Zwickau in Saxony. That is in the former GDR. But I was born and raised in West Germany. The culture shock was (and still is) amazing.

How do you mean shocking? How do the people there compare to West-Germans? some examples?
Yes, Chemnitz, formerly Karl-Marx-Stadt, formerly Chemnitz is not too far away from here.
Let me try to explain:
First, the people are much friendlier than at home. 16 months among them may be not enough for a serious assessment and I am far from having sorted out what is the 'inbred' good-naturedness of the Saxons (who have notably -- like the Bavarians -- never been Prussians) is and what the habitual sticking together against a totalitarian state and ducking a rigid system. People here will go out far of their way to help you, literally and metaphorically. I am experiencing it on an almost daily basis. Case in point: A friend of mine, who maybe shouldn't drive all over Europe alone in a small fast car, got lost at night while searching for my place. Some young people she had asked for directions piloted her here by leading her with their own car. I guess they drove at least 30 kilometers out of their way and then they made sure that my friend had safely arrived where she intended to arrive before they left. That kind of helpfulness is not unusual here but absolutely unheard of where I come from.
What Communism has destroyed is any gentility and that has only peripherally to do with poverty. One finds very few people with good manners or taste here, even among those with a good job and education. I think "gauche" is the word, or maybe "uncouth". Maybe that will go away, given time.
But what gets seriously on my nerves is the "DDR nostalgia". If one is talking about the former GDR-system it will probably start in quite a critical manner, but it will INVARIABLY end how this that and the other and basically everything had been absolutely wonderful back then.
Yeah! If you wanted to leave that effing country, you were shot dead at the border, but they had ALL places at the kindergarten for their children. I avoid talking about it if I can.
I am a Catholic myself and I find that the members of the small congregation (500 in a town of 25,000 inhabitants) have escaped those mechanisms, including the manners-thing, to an amazing extent. But then, they have never even begun to allow the system to swallow them, different from the Protestants. Why that is so is worth a doctor's thesis, not a message board post.
The communists absolutely hated and destroyed everything to do with the countryside. Have you ever heard of the LPGs? That was the term for the collective farms and they were an abomination against nature and mankind. They abolished all villages and put the farmers into huge ugly blocks of flats that are still disgracing the countryside and whereas the grand urban villas were just left to decay, traditional farmhouses and villages were vitually obliterated. They built grotesquely huge stables and siloes that set on the landscape like pockmarks and which are still there. They built gigantic tractors, even imported ROCKET tractors from Russia for agricultural purposes, whose sheer weight destroyed the soil, they obliterated the traditional fields and replaced them with acreage vaster than the eye can take in, and don't get me started what THAT did to flora and fauna. They hated the countryside and all it implied with a perverted, sick passion.
Not that this sort of "agriculture" was able to feed the population decently, mind you. But then, that wasn't its purpose in the first place.
The system crept in every nook and cranny of peoples' life, they sniffed the underwear, the bedclothes, they totally and utterly broke the people.
Many people here still can't meet your eyes, they behave like zombies if they have to see a member of the state authorities and they would never complain about anything because the police or other authorities are, for them, not there to help you, but to get you into trouble. 17 years don't get 40 years of dictatorship out of people's systems. On the other hand there are still those who had been or would have been informers in the "good" old days, who are fast like a lightning to threaten you with "calling the police" if they don't like something and it usually works a treat because people here are, as I said, frightened and will instantaneously cave in. I usually tell them to call the police pronto and the Stasi as well, which shuts them up quite effectively.
Such an opinion would bring me in trouble in todays Germany, mind you. At a time, when Nobel Laureate (and since then outed SS-man) Günther Grass calls the former GDR a "kommode Diktatur" (something like "comfortable dictatorship") and gets huge acclaim for it, an opinion like mine is highly unpopular.

Yes, in Russia the bolsheviks destroyed the farmer-class completely too... Amongst other bourgeois - classes.
Do average East-Germans think they had a better live under DDR?
I thought that they were happy the DDR collapsed?

They were happy until they discovered that West Germans have to actually WORK for their prosperity.
As I said, according to them, EVERYTHING was better in the DDR. They pretended to work and the state pretended to pay them. They had to work ten years for a lousy car and if they told their minds they were could end up in the death cell but everything was ***screech*** just wonderful.
Apropos lousy car. In the city of Zwickau they celebrated the 50th birthday of the Trabant earlier this year with a big exhibition, including dummies in uniform, banners, flags, DDR-nationality markings, hammer and sickle, the lot. Now imagine the same for the Volkswagen, including Nazi-uniforms, flags with the swastika and all the trimmings. Unthinkable! (And rightfully so!) But WHAT makes nostalgia for another ugly dictatorship permissable, even likeable, for people would swoon at the sight of a swastika is beyond me. The hypocrisy drives me up the wall.
As I said, too, the people are kind and friendly here and I can't affort to alienate all my contacts, but I sometimes just want to scream.

What do the East-Germans think about blacks/muslims/aliens?
-
We have the same kind of people in Poland they will tell you that comunism was better but try to ask them what was precisly the good; they'll shut up; although in comparison to other "demoluds" (all east block countries were oficialy "popular" and/or "democratic" republics) we had (after 1956) more cultural freedoms (Rock'N"Roll and pepsi ;)), farmlands in hands of pesants not state, small private buisneseses and craftmen and catholic church as alternative to comunist party. But the lack of noble class is showing itself especialy in politics which lack the class and coherent direction. about blck/muslims The East Gemans propably still condier them as aliens the multiculturalism is very shalow concept here. Welcome Nora on our forum. :)

Re: "...according to them, EVERYTHING was better in the DDR..."
It is a fact of human nature, that when we look backwards we tend to remember only the positive aspects of our lives; we subconsciously repress memories of unpleasantness.
Add to that fact the terrible culture shock experienced, when slaves who from cradle to grave have had every aspect of their lives controlled and decided for them by others, are suddenly made free; expected to now function normally as individuals, not only in an unstable society where competition determines one's socio-economic status, but also in an unplanned economy in which one must make personal choices and decisions from amongst an almost endless array of market and career possibilities which present tremendous challenges, and for which they are unprepared.
-
Well, what about the xenophobia of the "Ossies"? Of course we have to differentiate between the politically correct elites and the people. The latter tend to beat strange looking foreigners up, to the hypocritical dismay of the latter, who adamantly refuse to see any connection between that specific sort of violence and that specific dictatorship, which ended, after all, only 18 years ago and may have something to do with the "no go" areas for coloureds in East Germany. But as it is, it's all "Neo-Nazi violence" a violence that came out of the blue, Neo-Nazi violence nobody dares to call post-Communist violence.
That we don't see even more of it is due to the fact that there are very few Muslims or Blacks in East Germany at all because, historically, the former GDR was friendly with the Communist countries from South East Asia, so you see a lot of East Asians here. They are hard-working (shops with horrible, cheap stuff and countless diners come to mind) and keep themselves to themselves. They are inoffensive and reasonably friendly and I have never found that people here are giving them much thought.
Another reason is that Muslims have a huge, thriving infrastructure in West Germany, so why bother with the East?
Yes, all that is sad and what is even sadder is the fact that there are places in West Germany -- no go areas -- where ethnic Germans better don't go. Places, where an unattended ethic German woman or girl better doesn't go. Places, where elderly ethnic Germans better don't go -- AND NO GERMAN MEDIUM EVER GIVES A DAMN. But here I digress from your question what East Germans think about foreigners/Muslims.
I guess the non-violent majority of Germans here just can't fathom what life in a Muslim-ruled town, city or neighbourhood is like, so they won't find them the threat they clearly are. It's not much of a topic here anyway.
To be honest, I personally, find the absence of Muslims maybe THE most redeeming quality here.

UltraR, hi! I guess the Catholic Church, in spite of the many faults it may have, was able to give some focus to the people of Poland.
I am not quite sure whether I understand your term 'noble class' correctly. Do you mean a class that could potentially bring... well, "class" into politics? Style? Conservative values? That is certainly something we don't have in Germany either. And look what happened to Britain. Did the dismantling of the House of Lords help? Not a bit! They are the saddest, most dhimmified bunch in the whole of Europe.

I think that is a very insightful analysis and I couldn't agree more.

Very good quality indeed. But are the major East-German towns muslim-free?

I am a country person, and I haven't really been to the big cities in all those months I am living here. To Chemnitz only twice for a business meeting and to Leipzig only to pick up resp.to take somebody to the railway station and never to Dresden. The next biggest city I know is Zwickau (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwickau) with a population of roughly 100,000. But no, I have never seen anywhere any discernable Muslims and certainly not in the suffocating numbers one sees them in certain West German cities.
Edited to add:
Light dawns: In West Germany, railway stations are one of their favourite gathering places, the bigger the worse. (Should you ever visit Munich, beware!) The relevance of the fact that there weren't any at Leipzig railway station is only just occurring to me.
I was born in the Fifties and brought up by Socialist (more of the ethical than the Marxist variety) parents, who were politically correct in the current sense before anybody else was. No racism, everybody is born equal, who are we to judge others, never stereotype, never disrespect anybody, never judge somebody by their looks, always be on the side of the weak, we can't tell whether there is a God, the lot. My father was a leading member (on a regional basis) of the Socialdemocratic Party. I was so fed up with politics, that I plainly refused to have any part in it. I can't tell anymore how exactly I became politicised. The advent of the Internet and the fact that I couldn't afford horses anymore may have had something to do with it, but whatever the reason was, it started 1998 or 1999. The "Second Intifadah" then made me a full-blown partisan for Israel and, if possible, 9/11 reinforced that. But the real awakening came with the two years I lived in the slums of a West German town in the Ruhrgebiet, one of the regions with the biggest Muslim population and WAS it an eye-opener! Every politically correct bleeding-heart do-gooder ought to live there, even if only for a couple of months.

Welcome to JTF Nora. Your blog Roncevalles looks interesting. Are you still posting on it? Did you say you had another blog? I'll be happy to blogroll both your sites.

Welcome Nora. I have enjoyed reading all your posts this morning. It seems that people like me were lucky to be born in a country like America. We are very lucky to never know from some of things that you wrote about in your posts. I think you will like JTF a lot. I look forward to spending some time reading your blog when I have some time.

Honestly I think we have a long way to go before life in America can be compared to a Soviet Satellite Nation. I have been around for a long time and granted its not what it use to be but in comparison its really not all that bad.

Are they fox terriers or jack russells?

Welcome aboard, Nora.
Are they fox terriers or jack russells?
Hello Newman!
They are considered Parson Russells here in Germany, the very short legged ones go by the name of Jack Russell here. The former are officially recognised, the latter aren't. The Brits are less fussy, they are all Jack Russell or just Russell Terriers, irrespective how long or short their legs are. They don't bother with Kennel Club recognition either. The general idea behind that is, that any official standard means compromising the performance.
Foxterriers and Parsons are very alike, the most prominent difference is the lack of any stop, which gives the former a long-nosed, in a cute way supercilious, appearence the Parson/Jack Russell Terrier doesn't possess. The Parsons have usually less colour as well and are, on an average base, smaller. I have posted in the Appreciation for Creation - Favourite Dog Breed forum (http://jtf.org/forum_english/index.php?topic=10584.30) something about them.

I live in New York and although I have seen things better it could never be even remotely compared to life in a state controlled society such as the USSR set up in many places. The only problem we have here is the American people are asleep at the wheel and they are allowing the wool to be pulled over their eyes. America is still in far better shape as far as the muslims and our illegal problem goes than many other of the major countries. Granted if we allow things to carry on as they are progressing in 10 or 20 years what you say might become the case however for now I would have to respectfully disagree.

Hello Nora :)
Hello there! I know your site, Goldfasan, although I have never posted there. The anti-Islam brotherhood in Germany is so small, you may know me as the Roncesvalles (http://editrixblog.blogspot.com/)-Blogger.
Glad to meet you!
I don't know your blog before. But now I like it.
You have written there some interesting articles.
In example this one about the attempted murder of Rabbi Zalman Gurevitch in Frankfurt.

Hi Nora!
Nice to have you on the forum.

Can people tell by one's dialect (pronunciation, vocabulary) whether a person comes from East Germany or West Germany?

In most of the cases it's possible to say if somebody comes from East or West Germany and also which region they are from just by listening to the way they speak and the words they use.
