<-- back If Germany was governed by capitalist rationality, then one glance at the  projected population pyramid -- not a pyramid, but an urn (1) -- would be  sufficient to make the case for an increase in immigration as an immediate  political priority. And if the German government was held to the standards of  international law, it would be evident that it's the systematic denial of  protection for political refugees which -- alone in 2015 in the Mediterranean  Sea, a border in whose maintenance Germany is heavily invested -- has cost  thousands their lives (2), and that the long-term internment of immigrants in  camps, as practiced in Germany today, is an obvious crime. But no such  standards apply, and it's not rationality that governs. Germany's head of state  is a pastor, nominated by Social Democrats and Greens, and this week, at the  height of yet another wave of attacks against foreigners (3, 4), he declared:  "There is a bright Germany that shines its light onto this dark Germany". But  he's a liar, or thinks he presides over Germany in the role of a cleric, guided  by superstition and wishful thinking rather than facts or empirical evidence.  Since Germany's reunification, right-wing extremists have murdered hundreds of  people -- 75 according to the Ministry of the Interior, 184 according to the  Amadeu Antonio Foundation, plus 849 potential cases listed by the Federal  Criminal Police (5) -- while police repression has almost exclusively targeted  their victims and opponents. This week's film program, as it chronicles the  pogroms that preceded the dismantling of the constitutional right of asylum in  1993, serves as a reminder that German authorities don't just ignore fascist  terror against minorities, but in fact tolerate and often actively support it. 1. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demografie_Deutschlands#Altersstruktur 2. http://www.unhcr.org/5592bd059.pdf 3. https://www.google.de/search?hl=de&gl=de&tbm=nws&q=fl%C3%BCchtlingsheim 4. http://perlen-aus-freital.tumblr.com 5. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Todesopfer_rechtsextremer_Gewalt_in_Deutschland --------------------------------------------------------------------------------                                                        the truth lies in rostock                                                   siobhan cleary & mark saunders                                                                      1992 81 min                                                          das hoyerswerda-syndrom                                              mogniss h. abdallah & jonas endrias                                                                      1996 50 min                                                                           sunday                                                                        august 30                                                                             9 pm                                                             prⅳate cinema berlin                                                                 saal 2 kreuzberg                                                                 u kottbusser tor                                                                   12 seats, rsvp                                                           first come first serve                                                        location in separate mail --------------------------------------------------------------------------------          ()          >< prⅳate cinema berlin www.piratecinema.org <-- back
