After sending out an invitation to all and everybody to emigrate to Germany, Angela Merkel found that her offer was actually being taken seriously. With tens of millions of mostly Muslims understandably speeding on their way, she gets cold feet and rushes off to Turkey to try and close the door. In Istanbul, she offers Erdogan billions and, in a reversal of her previous stance, complete EU membership. For Erdogan, with the dream of re-establishing an Ottoman State with himself as Sultan turning on an election in a couple of weeks, this is manna from heaven. In exchange, Erdogan has given an undertaking to try and control the refugee flow through his domain. With a couple of thousand km of covey coastline, he is not going to even have to lift a finger before saying to Merkel" Hey Doll; I did try!" Saudi Arabia meanwhile, has quickly offered what Germany is clearly going to need most; the paid for construction of 300 new German mosques. Spot on.
