  • And even if they tried they failed since these people weren’t very smart. Like seriously I’ve seen people who live here in Europe for longer than they lived in their country of birth and still can’t string a proper sentence together in the language of the country they live in.

    Ah yes only the very intelligent can learn to speak our sophisticated language.

    This is such a incredibly stupid and hypocritical accusation, since like you correctly spelled out before they weren’t given many opportunities to do so. Since they were poor most had/have difficulties learning a language while also working construction, where most their coworkers aren’t german speakers either and housing costs force them to live in areas where they don’t have much cause/opportunity to bother with other germans. This is unlike most of the germans living in Turkey who dont bother to learn turkish out of sheer laziness.

    I had a friend who came here speaking turkish and arabic and learned farsi, urdu and kurmanci before german because thats the people he had contact with. On the other side I have lived in Turkey as a german and a lot of the other europeans there did not bother to integrate at all, but chose to live in gated, self-segregated communities where they had as little turkish culture as possible.















  • No it wasn’t, settlers had been moving into palestine since the late 1800s. The zionists utilised the persecutions of jews in europe to get bodies to staff the frontier sure, but that had also been an established MO since Herzl. The creation of Israel coincides more with the US taking charge of europes colonies and settler projects. Which is why the Lehi and Irgun had to do the terror attacks on the UK in order to establish themselves as a country. They pledged their allegiance to the new white overlord and got rewarded with statehood for it.
