An Australian CAN NOT have dual nationality (except perhaps with the UK,
but even that may have changed).
You automatically renounce your Australian citizenship when you apply
for foreign citizenship.

To get it back again, you must make a representation to the minister,
live in oz for some period and renounce your foreign citizenship.

Don't you think Rupert Murdock would have kept his Australian citizenship
if he could?

I have to agree with this second poster's point....it is way to simplistic 
to claim that neglect of the young is due to the greed of the elderly.  We 
were all young at one time, and we all (if we're lucky) will be old.  The 
commonality of these experiences reflects the need of a true "government of 
the people, by the people" to adequately address the needs of all.  The fact 
that we are even having this discussion indicates the ability of people to 
care about more than their own apparent self interest.  I vote, and I will 
hopefully assume that other posters to this list vote...I will support 
candidates who champion children's causes.  I would venture to say that 
many "geezers" would too.  And it is this type of thinking and action that 
is ultimately in everyone's best interest.

PS.  I hope that this discussion is universal enough to be of relevance to 
soc.culture.german!  If I have skewed it too much towards the U.S....I 
apologize!  Please feel free to nudge it back to Deutschland!

No word on actual violence in the papers this morning,
but the TV news "Tagesschau" had plenty to tell.

In a town near Mannheim (Hessen?) a fire bomb was
thrown through a window of a hostel. Two sleeping
children were burned by the flammant and had to be
taken to the hospital.

Quedlinburg, the scene of violence for 4 nights in a row,
spent another uneasy night. Members of the Green party and other 
non-violent persons that attempted to guard a refugee hostel were
beaten off by rock-throwing youths. The police arrived at
around midnight, arrested around 40 persons, who were released
after being identified.

A demonstration in support of the refugees was held in
Eisenhuettenstadt.

Another demonstration was in front of the meeting place of
the SPD party, pleading with the delegates not to vote for 
changes to the constitution regarding refugees. The SPD,
however, voted to go ahead and attempt a change.

The Lutheran church has protested the violence. The Bundes-
president, Richard v. Weizaecker, gave a statement in
Austria, but I've forgotten what exactly he said.

These chronicles do not pretend to be exhaustive or in-depth.
I encourage all other readers from around Germany to
post information about violence or about supportive actions.

The topic of whether to use umlaut letters in news is heatedly debated
in Germany over and over again...

In fact you are lucky to have a machine that displays correct umlauts.
There is still much equipment that lacks this ability because of
either not-8-bit-transparent transmission lines or incompatible
charsets. Many people will not be able to read umlauts in news or
mail, even if you enter them correctly. Bad luck for people with
umlauts in their names.

Well, if you count Silesia as Polish, then the Prussian occupation 
began as early as 1742, i.e., before your first date.

As for your last date, this ignores the reassignment of portions
of pre-WWI Germany to post-WWI Poland.

No, not a whole lot.  On the other hand, the terms of occupation were

It can take many forms.  As I have noted elsewhere, I was misinformed

Was willst Du daraus schliessen ?  Es ist allgemein bekannt, das sich Schlesier
je nachdem, was f"ur sie besser ist, als Deutsche oder aus Polen ausgeben.
Ich kenne auch einen Fall, wo sich der Sohn als Deutscher empfand und der Vater
ein Freiheitsk"ampfer gegen die Deutschen war. Ich kann mir vorstellen, dass
so was zumindest zu Ungereimheiten in der Familie f"uhren kann.

Ich kann auch gewissen Neid der polnischen Bev"olkerung gegen"uber den
Deutschen nicht ausschliessen. Wer sich n"ahmlich als Deutscher zu erkennen
gibt und die Liste unterschreibt, der kann mit finanzieller Hilfe aus Bonn
rechnen. Brandanschl"age sind aber deswegen kaum zu vermuten. 
Die deutsche Minderheit hat immerhin 6 Vertreter im polnischen Parlament und
bei der Zersplitterung im Sejm kann Sie auch (zusammen mit Vertretern anderer
Minderheiten) den politischen Kurs des Landes mitentscheiden.
Man bem"uht sich den Minderheiten gewisse Freiheiten zu geben. Die deutschen
Vertreter pochten aber immer wieder auf eine Sonderstellung der Deutschen
(sprich Verg"unstigung). Dabei vergisst man, da"s umgekehrt die Polen in
Deutschland nicht einmal diese Freiheiten besitzen, wie sie die Deutschen in
Polen bereits haben (z.B. Besitz eines deutschen Passes neben dem polnischen,
Schulunterricht in deutscher Sprache).
Ich w"urde vielmehr behaupten, da"s es in Deutschland viel gef"ahrlicher
ist sich als Pole zu erkennen geben (z.B. Steinanschl"age auf Autos mit
polnischen Kennzeichen) als es umgekehrt der Fall in Polen f"ur Deutsche ist.

Ich m"ochte noch einen Satz zu der ausl"anderfeindlichen Kampagne
der deutschen Presse hinzuf"ugen (eines Teiles davon).
In der neuen Ausgabe der "Funk-UHR", also einer Fernsehzeitung, lese ich mit
Verwunderung einen halb-seitigen Beitrag "uber polnische Zigarettenschmuggler.
Die Zeitung kann schreiben wor"uber sie will, aber "uber solche Themen gerade
jetzt und anl"aslich des Fernsehprogramms ?
Nicht einen Wort findet man dar"uber, dass sich genauso gut die Deutschen
B"urger mit dem Schmuggel besch"aftigen und dass kriminelle Organisationen
an der Grenze ein deutsch-polnisches Gemeinschaftswerk sind.

No, your look happens to be trendy in Germany. As you are moving to
Baden-Wuerttemberg, you as American will be welcomed.
You can get along with English, but do learn at least a little German.
The effort is worth it (you'll discover) and it will be greatly
appreciated by the people. Even if you stammer only a few phrases.

Besides, I'm glad you asked. It shows the deteriorating German image
abroad. Damn, Germans, DO something!

No word on any violence on the radio or in the papers. But we
have some updates on some topics:

Dienel, the head of the DNP who was arrested Sunday on charges of
"Volksverhetzung" (rabble rousing?), has been released.

The 5 youths who kicked Amadeu Antonios from Angola to death in 1990
have been sentenced. Three were sentenced to 4 years in juvenile
prison, one to 3 1/2 years, one to 2 years on probation. The taz
has an interview with Gordon K. today, one of the 3 sentenced to 4
years. He's a Heavy Metal fan, just like his pals. Comes from a
relatively stable home, likes his parents, is described by friends
as "shy", quiet, reserved. The interviewer describes the scene: in
the background music with lyrics like "Stay hard, stay heavy, stay 
sick, stay brutal" or Skinmusic like "Skins, hart, kahl, brutal";
the young man shrugs his shoulders. Noo, violence won't solve
anything. What's there to feel sorry for? I didn't do anything. It's
really a drag with the courts and all, I hope the judge is quick
to understand I wasn't involved. I just went along for the fun, I'm
the victim....
The fun is called "Neger klatschen", and was fatal for Amadeu
Antonios. 

Students with stipends studying at Goethe Institutes in the East
are scared. In Dresden some have asked to be transferred to
Institutes in the West. In East Berlin, 80 have left the dormitory
with 107 rooms in Hohenschoenhausen provided for them by the GI.
Hohenschoenhausen has been the site of numerous incidents in Berlin.
The few left in the dormitory are anxious. They come right home from
the institute, and don't leave at night. At least there is a guard,
but they describe the situation as frightening.

Three more youths were sentenced to a slap on the wrist, ahh, Jugend-
arrest equivalent to the days already spent in jail, for their 
participation in the riots 3 weeks ago in Rostock.

Hi Stephen,

you don't have to be concerned. Even if you wouldn't look that Western
European (blue eyes, etc.). I'm affraid with this describtion you match the 
average German as much as J. R. Ewing match the average American. :-)
Don't understand me wrong: I don't just want to make jokes about your 
concernes. It's a too serious subject. It's just that the germans aren't 
blond and blue eyed in general as well as they aren't against foreigners
in general. Just keep in mind, that the easiest way to get into the news
is to throw a bomb. I don't want to play the events down. Those are 
shocking and serious. But nobody seems to take them as what they are:
social riots. The very high unemployment rate in the new german countries
and the unsecure economic situation are used by the right wing parties 
to propagate theire intollerant ideology. Instead of naming the problems,
the established parties want to divert from theire omissions and turn the 
discussion into a debate about asylum politics. As posted in this 
newsgroup before, about 12% of the germans would vote right wing parties in the 
next elections. This is a supprisingly high number and it calls for political 
action of everybody in this country. But even if you'd assume that all of 
those people would agree completely whith fascistic ideology you shouldn't 
forget the more than 80% of the people who would vote different.

Greetings,
		Frank.
