American style anti terror laws coming to Germany
American style "anti-terror" laws coming to Germany? This week Germany's Interior Minister, Wolfgang Schaeuble, proposed that Germany pass laws permitting indefinite detentions and targeted killing of terror suspects. Schaeuble is a hard right member of Chancellor Merkel's CDU party. These comments provoked an intense outcry in Germany. Most press commentary was against the proposals. In fact, you can buy t-shirts on the Internet that have a picture of Schaeuble's face with the writing Stasi 2.0. Stasi was the name of the East German secret service which used very invasive tactics against the East German population.
