Merkel in limbo after coalition talks fail

German Chancellor Angela Merkel said she'd prefer a new election to leading a minority government after coalition talks between her center-right Christian Democratic Union, the centrist Free Democratic Party, and the center-left Greens fell apart, per the BBC.


September's elections were initially viewed as a victory for Merkel as the CDU won by far the most seats. Now, unless she can patch together a coalition, it'll be up to German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier to call for another election which would take months. Steinmeier has said the parties have a responsibility to come to an agreement.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

With all the turmoil that has happened to Germany under her watch I'm surprised she's still Chancellor.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
