it is germany versus civilization. the idea being that germany is not fit to stand among the members of western europe. book calledis conquest and couture. there is something flawed within german culture that led them to anrt this war and engage in -- against the belgian civilian population. what is interesting about the first world war is that the print culture is so advance that even in putting together this exhibit, we were sort of swimming in sources. it is not the first time that propaganda is used, but it is certainly a very treasure trove of propaganda. a lot of this propaganda in this belgian cases aimed at trying to get americans to put pressure on the civilian government to join the war. so, america is neutral all the way until 1917. 1915e materials from 1914, are trying to show that america needs to fight because it is an unjust conflict. but there is a clear case of evil represented by germany. that needs to be stopped. re further damages done to the belgian and french civilian population. all of these case

nobody wants germany to go it alone. if germany gets too strong, it will be isolated. if it is not strong enough, it can't lead. what lies ahead for europe and its ideals of peace and prosperity? coming to you from berlin, "quadriga," the international debate. your host this week, peter craven. peter: welcome to this latest edition of "quadriga." as you've already heard, the question we are asking on today's show is, a german europe or a european germany? it is part of a week of special programming we are doing on dutch about -- deutsche we lle, asking where will europe go next? to talk about all this and more, i'm joined by three seasons observers and analysts. let me introduce them to you. beginning with judy dempsey, a writer and analyst for the carnegie financing who has always worked with a host of international broadcasters. judy asks the following, where and what is europe without germany? without angela merkel, europe would be weakened even further. also with us is writer and journalist alan posener, a regular commentator for the berlin-based "die welt." angela

it is a huge enrichment for germany that people are coming to germany. germany has a shrinking population. they desperately need more people. there are talented people coming to germany all the time. areasylum laws in germany generous and being abused by certain people. part of the reason is there is no real process for immigration to germany. this is are generous and being abused by certain a huge problem. it is going to be a problem for long time. politicians are gradually waking up to it, dragging their feet. i think they are afraid to send signals. with climate change looming, refugees are going to be coming from kinds of reasons for decades to come. this is something people have been predicting for a long time. maybe it's coming more quickly than people thought. it's a huge problem. there are no real answers. nobody seems to come up with an answer. peter: it is interesting you talk about politicians dragging their heels. angela merkel was commenting on the magnitude of the crisis, and she said, it's going to be a bigger challenge for our societies t

, chastise germany, amend germany, make germany a better place and then and only then would germany be fit to be admitted into the community of nations. the war ended, as you know, very quickly. the germans made a last great push in the summer of 1918. but they had by this point run out of steam and i think the fact that there were now a million americans in europe and more in training camps, 2 million more in training camps in the united states, that tremendous american support, material, manpower, fresh, fresh approach to the war was now counting against germany. the germans simply crumbled. they were no longer capable of sustaining the war. the german home front was collapsing and by the awe thumb of 1918, german allies were beginning to fall away. and so the germans, the high command who continued to assure the german civilian government, the shadowish civilian government with very little power and all is going well and then panic at the end of the september and say we have to have an armistice. we have had it. the german government hoping, i think, that they might get gentler trea

that germany might have been forced into it. it goes to a fundamental issue of how these industrial countries that previously had interlocking military alliance , theyinternational crises worked these issues out before. there were times when things flared up. they usually worked it out through international mediation and negotiation. they could not figure out why they could not solve this issue. fundamentally, they try to respond to the general populace. they could not figure out why the countries were going to war. the u.s. was a neutral country and wanted to do business with all the parties. so they allowed this literature to come in. each ofe very aware of the embassies in the united dates trying to influence public opinion as well. the administration was very concerned about being pushed one way or the other. also, there was a sensitivity that they were trying to influence domestic public opinion and that becomes a political issue as well. you now have europe in war for two years and the question is, what is the united state

of the other powers, germany germany ~ britain would cause less trouble inside and out. in 1927 after the intense diplomacy, the director of the industry joined the commission as the german member. the appointment wasn't in the lobby they wanted one of those governors in the post at the end to the ministry found them rightly so. his presence strengthened the block of the commission that the correct manner, good english and otherwise conventional views shielded him from attack. although intensely busy they prepared scrupulously for every session pulling the commission towards the assertion of the authority. the first part of that was economic. the mandates were supposed to operate under the open door that is to give equal economic rights to all the states. these were policies britain favored in west africa and even before germany joined the league, they have sold the plantation's expert of cameroon right to the owners. now they went back and rebuild their dominant position in the african carrying trade. but the commission went further than that. it became much more aggres

who deviated from germany first and why? i would say that the traditional criticisms of mediterranean strategies applied to the pacific. the mediterranean strategy was described as being a divergence from the second front. in fact, it was deployment to the pacific theater that made the second front impossible. the pacific theater hindered the buildup of troops in the united kingdom. as we shall see, i strengthen the pacific doubled from june to december 1942 after we defeated japan halfway. the question was why was this? i will make the argument that it was a product of roosevelt strategy for post war. what was that? what did he want to achieve? his overriding goal was have a war that would be known as detente. deployed the second front. and until he met stalin, he reached an agreement with stalin, and in the process written on prior deals with the british and chinese. it is worthy to note that the strategy and vision was diametrically opposed to churchill. roosevelt's post world war order would be based on soviet journey .

today she called on germany to take a stance against intolerance of immigrants. she visited a refugee center, and this weekend a mob hurt bombs and tear gas. >> treatment with humanity and the dignity of every single person who comes to us is part of our basic understanding. this is what symbolizes germany. what happened here is shameful and disgusting. that's what the mayor and the prime minister as everybody else i met here today made clear. together we will show that germany helps where help is needed and help is what's needed in reality now. >> germfully expects the number of refugees going to germany this year could reach 800,000.

that relates to attacking targets deeper in germany. we are not going to win the war, not going to have this vision of collapsing the nazi industrial web, without going to targets deeper in germany. and when they try that, they find all kinds of problems. first off, even finding the correct targets is difficult. the germans are not forthcoming with where all of the aircraft factories are or the engine factories. or the tank factories. what we discover in the course of this and most certainly subsequently is that german industry is already dispersed to a significant degree and during the war disperses even more. as with all warfare of the enemy has something to say about it. are strong.efenses the germans have learned the value of strong air defense. they built a radar line even more robust than what the british have built. they are very capable of flying good air defense. they are heavily armed and can fly at night or use standoff weapons to attack american bombers. and of course the bomber is not as invulnerable as those doctrinaire's

germany? mr. germany: absolutely. you can go through the 1990's where the democratic party is still pretty much the dominant party in the south. it's a two party south. it is much less so over the last 10 years. host: we'll have to continue on, only on that same day the legislation is passed, the president makes another phone call with the attorney general. it's that evening and is talking about the mississippi golf paul johnson. he's concern about federal examiners in -- examiners that are going to be enforcing the new laws. here's a bit of that conversation. president johnson: he says, they will send them into the county and they didn't old study and you do not need it, that is number one. a number two, if you look at the others who are in the state, if you look at these laws -- a told you this was exactly what was going to happen. you just incite them and make it worse. and if you send them in the 18th that would be all right and that's not but 10 days. and he wished he could find some way to instruct them. so he c

germany has taken measures to increase that openness to refugees from syria. walk us through why the country did that. simon: this is an announcement at a federal agency that has a responsibility for migrants and refugees, and they've said that in the case of syrian refugees, they are not going to apply these dublin rules that would require them to send people back to the country where they first arrived in the eu. they said they are doing this, taking account of the special humanitarian plight of syrians, who have come escaping from war. they are also doing it in order to speed up the asylum process, which means these people can be dealt with more swiftly, and that is a big advantage, a big relief to them. sara: absolutely. thank you very much. stocks in europe and the u.s. rallied on tuesday, getting back some of those massive losses from monday's major selloff. kristof joins us. is this the happy ending? kristof: i don't and we have seen the ending of this whole mess because the fundamental questions and concerns investors have regarding china have not chan

i think it is worth asking how does a base in germany defend the united states or defend germany for that matter or anyone in europe where there is no major military threat that could conceivable take on the military might of european-nato allies. we see kate hutchinson who offered nice words and john caster from montana saying i would love to have thousands of troops from germany come back to our state and have their spending benefit our local economy. i think these are arguments that we need to embrace something and build a party partisan alliance to begin asking why basis a open. just as quickly in almost every case it can from bases overseas. any time difference that might be gained from a base overseas is made up for by the money we spend to maintain the basis overseas. >> what about the cultural and social impacts of the base closing? part of watt i was thinking was with the base in japan particularly is it is so big it seems that if it closed suddenly it would be this large empty space. and my second question is you mentioned the correlation between basis and anti-democratic r

just go straight for the part of germany we ought to bomb germany from the air then to send weapons to stall and to fight the germans on the ground marshall and king fought with the british over this strategy for months but they could not reach a decision and they were deadlocked seven was up to fdr to decide the average guy really wanted revenge on the japanese after all they drew first blood at pearl harbor. but he believed the american public spent the next year fighting japan and not germany that americans of want to finish the job in the pacific so roosevelt overruled the military professionals to side with the british on that one. and so they were beside themselves when they found out he wanted to go to north africa instead of weight another year to do the job right so they put together a memorandum to roosevelt that if you do not agree that america will prove most of the wage against japan you will turn our back on the germany first agreement that we have so this memo dated sway of to fdr he end in hyde park new york in the scallops when he looked at it because he thought they w

germany did not do that well either, but germany is the par. if france is doing well as germany, that is some kind of success for the french government. the worrying thing is that consumer spending grew much, much less than it has in previous quarters. that is what has kept the french government afloat. there was a change in stocks. that is something that could be repaired in the next quarter. exports did a bit better than they had in the past. that is kind of a good sign. i would not fret too much about this. the government has set a conservative target of 1% growth for the year and they are almost there. a mixed bag. francine: greg, thank you. let's go to paul. are we disappointed with the germany figures because the euro should have help this economy farther? a little bit disappointing, but not an ambitious growth target, anyway. germany has record low unemployment, record low borrowing costs, and a weak euro. it did help exports. consumption contributed as well. .nvestment was a drag ecb policymakers said in july that they were disappointed

germany is getting it from both sides here and here. you get daylight bombing, and the raf at night. from italy they would mount missions across here into romania because romania germany gets most natural oil from romania. it is important to knock out spots there. this is where the african-american pilots flew, the tuskegee airmen, out of italy. they escorted to eastern europe. russians, where they able to mount the aerial campaign? prof. miller: good point. no. there is only two countries in the world that have these four engined bombers, britain and the united states. germany tried to put one into production and ran into problems even with their crack engineers. the russians concentrated .ntirely on strategic air force they had to engine bombers. .hat is how they bombed britain they don't have these babies that can go long distances. we are the only countries that have this sort of thing. anybody else question? there is the picture. there is the instrument of destruction. a b-17. it looks big. .t looks big on the ground it looks like

update us on the status of greece and what germany is doing wrong. robert: i think what they are doing wrong is they are forcing the greek economy into greater and greater depression as the price for getting the bailout. greece will get more money. it will be able to go on paying interest on its debt but at the cost of driving the economy into greater recession. that is a self-defeating circle. the greek economy has fallen by 25% in the last five years. it is projected to go and get smaller by 5% this year. what are they trying to do? they are really cutting off the real basis of servicing the debt. meanwhile, they are increasing the debt so it cannot work. joe: has europe forgotten the lessons of post-world war ii? there were a lot of people talking about germany and the fact that they were supposed to get debt relief and that helped europe and that should have applied to greece as well? what is the historical lesson here? robert: the historical lesson, the settlement between debtors and creditors has always got to be negotiated. there are creditor

germany's biggest bank are sky high. they become one of the highest expenses for the bank since 2012. back then, legal fees just over 2.6 billion euros for the whole year. and just the first six months of the year, they surpassed 2.7 billion euros. scandals are continuing to rock the bank. the most recent allegations regard russia. the bank is accused of helping russian customers to launder money and tunnel capital out of the country -- funneled capital out of the country, a direct violation of u.s. sanctions. investigations are just beginning. >> that's it from the business desk at the moment. anchor: with the football season slowly getting under way, teams across the globe are revealing their new kits. manchester united have a new megabucks deal with adidas. most kids looked very similar to last year, but some take a little getting used to. >> football clubs have a long history of color for kitsap sometimes dubious taste. over time, sponsorship deals have started playing a major role, possibly too big a role, producing

they want to know what happened in germany. they want to know answers to the questions that we are asking. how can a civilized nation like that become murderers? commit unbelievable atrocities. and this is what we also speak in the schools here. because the young people here want to know. like i said, they are going to be the future leaders. they will know, from what they learned from us. if they do not learn from us, they will not know what happened. from us, they learn. they can carry it on. again, there is a great interest, a great demand for holocaust survivors. i know there is a representative here. i've spoken on many occasions for facing history to students and schools. we did make, two years ago i made a documentary, a movie in poland and germany. it is called "i promised to my father." it was from the question i said before. when my father sent me over to the other line after the selection. they were sent to the death camp in treblinka and murdered there. my father said, if you survive, remember to carry on the jewish
