Malta isn't an example of multiculturalism at all, you don't know what you are talking about. This place is a hybrid of other cultures, which is true of just about every culture.
Hybridisation is fine, that is how cultures evolve, the ghettoisation that multiculturalism encourages is a problem and is not something that exists here. There are no places solely populated by one group that doesn't interact with other groups, it is not big enough to do that even if people wanted it.
Uhhh, bad handling by the media, rather. What's the police to do? They got a suspect, they take him in and they question him. That's what they did. They didn't sentence him to prison or something. This is the problem of the police, they have to investigate all possible angles. They don't have the luxury to sit on a forum and wait for the news. They are the news.

It is possible. It took over a thousand years of constant and brutal strife for Europe to regain a lot of the cultural, technological and philosophical amenities that were lost with the fall of the West Roman Empire. It required a mighty city to fall in order to get the Renaissance age, as a precursor to the Age of the Enlightenment, started. This is one of the bigger tragedies: When the Mongols destroyed Baghdad they also destroyed the House of Wisdom and with it the heart of the Islamic Golden Age even though many other Islamic kingdoms had a similar affinity for science, philosophy and arts and they strove to duplicate the ancient Greek and Persian works as often as they could. Al-Andalus was another cultural and scientific centre during the Islamic Golden Age. Our number system today is Arabic, the German word "Ziffer" has its roots in the Arabic word sifr which means empty (or null). So it is possible to regain what was lost eventually by reapplying that pressure that once upon a time they put on us.

Well, yes, that's what the spokespeople usually do. But turning "He did not admit to the crime at this point in time." turning into "Incompetent police fucks up investigation and catches wrong dude" is all media.
Or, as the poster below you quoted: "Berlin market attack: driver still at large after "wrong man arrested""
The implication being that the police stopped investigating after the arrest of one dude. You can bet your ass that they haven't even set up proper investigation and crime scene units when that dude was arrested, it happened literally minutes after the crime. I know we live in the age of the internet where everyone expects instant gratification, but come on.. give those dudes time.

"Multiculturalism is the existence of multiple cultural traditions within a single country, usually considered in terms of the culture associated with an aboriginal ethnic group and foreigner ethnic groups."
How do you think hybridisation came about without multiculturalism coming first?
Ghettoisation isn´t encouraged by multiculturalism but by bad policies and neglect. You can have ghettos within the same culture.
Well Merkel comes out and says it would be bad if it turns out the refugee was the attacker, and then police releases the dude saying he didn't do it.
With the way media reports stuff this is surely that last thing that had to happen in this order.

I propose the National Truck Agency, or NTA, to lobby Congress for everyone to have a truck to use in case a bad guy has a truck. We also need trucks parked in classrooms just in case.

Guess this means the return of the ''its just a truck bro'' meme. I'd be surprised if Germany remains unharmed during New year at this point...

Ok so news now is saying the person in custody is not the driver. They said the company driver stopped responding at noon and they think the truck was hijacked. 7 hours it was missing. Why on earth the company didn't report the truck missing to police is irresponsible.

It's different now. We've expected this to happen. We're expecting this to continue to happen. We've done this before. Before it was our parents enduring the RAF, now it's our generation's turn to stoically weather the storm until it passes. Which it will, nobody here doubts that. Germany won't lose its values over this. We'll have some rebalancing of political streams, perhaps the right-wing will find an acceptable position that they can sell to the population (less nazi, more conservative than the CDU). But when all of this is said and done? We'll still be Germans and bitch about England seceeding from the EU.
