Yeah, Merkel has been strongly criticized recently for her refugee policy. Yesterday I heard on radio that already 48% Germans don't support her on it, other 39% support her refugee policy. The critical mass is being built rather rapidly and all it needs now is a false flag.
Yes, I noticed this study too, it's all over the MSM. It's actually a classic PR stunt to fund a study, or take numbers from an existing one, and push your interpretation all over the media - journalists love such studies and are always ready to follow your conclusions. Add the fact that Germany's media seems to be in the grip of the US, it might well be an orchestrated campaign. (Well, I guess there might be some power struggle coming up among German media moguls, which might get interesting when they realize the US ship is sinking...)
BTW, the study claiming that 48% of the Germans don't support Merkel in her refugees policy was carried out by the media itself, namely
Bild am Sonntag, Germany's most influential newspaper (tabloid). The same newspaper also published an online survey, where readers can vote between supporting Merkel and Seehofer (a rightist guy), and there the big majority seems to be in favor of the (far) right position.
Some comments: First, if you look at the numbers of the first "study" - 48% do not support Merkel's refugee policy, 39% support it -, they don't look so bad for Merkel, especially given the fact that the question leaves the door wide open for critics both from the left and the right spectrum. I suspect only die-hard Merkel supporters would answer such a question with "yes". Anyway, the resulting media campaign giving the impression that "Merkel looses support" seems out of proportion, which further suggests a PR stunt.
Then, there is the second "survey" by
Bild, with much higher numbers against Merkel. Maybe the first "study" wasn't enough? But of course, such a tabloid survey is in no way representative, plus they could just make up the numbers and nobody could ever verify them.
Something to keep in mind is that the
Bild tabloid is part of the Axel Springer group, arguably the most influential media group in Germany, which has always been the spearhead of US propaganda in Germany. They have a statements of principles that is even written in the contracts they have with their journalists - it reads:
[...]Our statements describe a liberal world view which includes:
- The unconditional support of the liberal constitutional state Germany as a member of the western community of states and the advancement of the unification efforts of the European nations.
- The achievement of the reconciliation between Jews and Germany, which also includes the support of the right to live of the Israeli people.
- The support of the transatlantic alliance and the solidarity in the liberal community of values with the United States of America.
- The rejection of any kind of political totalitarianism.
- The defense of the liberal social market economy
It can't get more obvious than that... So it really seems not unlikely that the PTB are targeting Germany and are ready to do what is necessary to keep it in line. I always thought that the US controls its vassal states, especially Germany, primarily through the media - that way, they can "build up" and "shoot down" politicians at will and generally set the political agenda. BUT, if this is true, this also means that if more and more people stop believing the mainstream media, they loose their most important weapon, so that's further motivation to continue spreading some truth and give the MSM lies what they deserve, osit.
