Well now Germany has takes a small step forward by denying Germany citizenship to a Muslim medical doctor who refused to shake hands with a female court employee. Is Germany starting to wake from its self induced nightmare?

Lou you forgot one critical fact…Sputnik radio is also based in Scotland and must abide by EU laws.
Which doesn’t prevent them from publishing what ever thy want.
Guess citizenship wasn’t that important after all.
Why would you go to a site that says upfront they collect information on you???
What site does not collect information. I recommend taking time and listen for a bit…Their best show is the Kaiser Report- incredible financial news. You can watch also on Youtube.past episodes. If I had to choose between CNN or Sputnik, it would be Sputnik. You are correct, one hand shake caused lost citizenship!
I visit 8 different sites for financial news, I do like Seeking Alpha as thy have decent research. I do little as far as viewing talking heads as it’s rarely in-depth.
Lou the financial news on the Kaiser Report is radicle. It talks about Ponzi Schemes, the self destructing Federal reserves, central banks purchasing corporate debt and the continuous printing of fiat currency… Sometimes they become saturated with Bit Coin and gold purchases. I have never heard of such financial news before until I started watching the Kaiser Report.Give it a try!
Maybe this man shouldn’t have been in Germany in the first place.
