In this school, the "Grund- & Gemeinschaftsschule St. Jürgen Gemeinschaftsschule mit Oberstufe i.E.", the classes choose the projects out of a list given by their teachers - some joined staff at a musical, most worked in factories and charities, others made art projects with local artists.
Quote:Around 20 attackers ganged up on two refugees standing outside a shelter in Wismar on the Baltic Sea, German police said Sunday.
Three more refugees were injured in Magdeburg, some 200 kilometers further south of Wismar, when a group of 30 assailants attacked them using baseball bats. Plainclothed police officers managed to intervene and arrest a 24-year old suspect.
In another instance of the weekend spike in violence, a Syrian man was hurt by broken glass when an explosive device detonated in front of his window in a refugee home in Freital, Saxony.
Saxony's Interior Minister Markus Ulbrig decried the "cowardly and cold-blooded" attack. Those responsible for the blast must know "that there is no place for them in our society," Ulbrig said.
Another refugee was attacked at a tram stop in Jena early Sunday, according to the police, and a 43-year old German man was arrested near Hannover for allegedly committing an arson attack on a home of an asylum seeker family from Montenegro.
Several buildings designated as future refugee shelters were also targeted in arson attacks over the weekend.
Mounting violence
The news of the weekend attacks came as the ruling parties were struggling to find a joint strategy to manage the unprecedented influx of refugees.
Attacks on migrant shelters, anti-refugee protests and violence have been increasing as Germany is expected to receive at least 800,000 refugees by the end of the year.
The German refugee ministry announced last week that there had been 576 crimes against refugee centers in 2015, compared to 198 in all of the last year.

It will only get worse till the Germans smarten up and close the borders. The problems of the rest of the planet are not all Germany's problem, at some point they are going to learn.

I don't think that the neo-Nazis and other criminals will suddenly vanish if the borders would be closed.
@Walter Hinteler,
Probably not, but they might find themselves outnumbered
It is all just a march towards fascism! think people have to wake up!
The creation of the EU involved no scam at all. It was instead a rational response to centuries of war between various great Powers in Europe.
In particular the formerly stable order which emerged in the Congress of Vienna after the fall of Napoleon, which involved an alliance among the major continental powers (Russia, Prussia and Austria) counterbalancing the French and British with their overseas empires, began to break down in the Crimean war with growing rivalry between Austria and the Prussians (later a unified Germany), and collapsed entirely during WWI. The ravages of that war, the revolutions that followed and the breakup of the Habsburg Empire, all led to a second act with WWII. The vast destruction and movements of peoples within Europe that occurred throughout Europe during and immediately after that war set the stage for what became the EU. It was formed based on a wide consensus in Europe that an end to centuries of internal conflict was sorely needed. I can find no fault with that motivation and most of what has followed.
The EU has achieved truly remarkable success in achieving its founding goals. After the collapse of the Soviet Empire the former satellite states in eastern Europe actively sought admission in the EU, and their association with it has undeniably accelerated their recovery from the tyranny and centrally planned socialist economies that held them back for over a generation after WWII. Indeed it was cartainly far more successful in promoting freedom and human welfare in a major part of the world than was the much vaunted Marxist Socialist experiment that caused so much suffering and poverty for so long.
A good deal of that political success in forming the EU was achieved through largely administrative processes within the Union, often bypassing the core constitutional issues attending national soverignty withing the union. Could the many successes have been achieved any other way? I certainly don't know. These issues and the struggles attendant to them have been rising to the fore over the past decade. The recent conflicts attendant to the debacle in the Middle East and the civil wars emerging throughout the neighboring Islamic world are certainly exacerbating them.
It's rather easy to see and note these apparent contradictions. Indeed they comprise an an issue that has interested me for some time. However it is worth remembering that there aren't any permanent solutions in politics or human history, and the solutions to problems in one decade can quickly become the main problems of the next. Much has been written about the contradictions attendant to our alliance with the Soviet Union during WWII and the Cold War that followed. The fact is that such things are usually clear only in retrospect. Life and history are complex and the future is generally unknowable, and only rarely forseen accurately.
The several posts above slandering the EU are very stupid outpourings of one who confuses fault-finding and shallow conspiracy speculations with real knowledge and understanding.

Far down my list of evaluators, after stuff like is the Eu sustainable? Is it good? Has it been created honestly? Has it been consented to by the people?

What happened is clear only in retrospect, knowing that huge risks of bad things happening are being taken to advance a dream is known before hand, except to idiots.

On the eve of winning the Revolution,Hamilton, said to a New York delegate to the Continental Congress,
"We should give the homecoming soldiers a generous allotment of land so that when the Civil War starts, we will have a ready qrmy to fight for New York's interests"

What Monnet really wrote on the April 30,1952 can be read here:
Speech [on the ECSC and the Plevan Plan] by Mr. Jean Monnet at the National Press Club. Washington DC, 30 April 1952
"Nous ne coalisons pas des Etats, nous unissons des hommes." (
We are not forming coalitions of states, we are uniting people.)
EU=fascism, it is that simple!
