Five German News Stories

 1.  Some hyped-up chatter from the CDU Party 'boss' saying yesterday....that the CDU were the 'original' alternate party (instead of the AfD). This drew criticism from the SPD, the Greens, and even the AfD Party.

2.  Because of all this search business for the non-existent lion in Berlin.....the building folks for the Economics Ministry ended up finding an Iguana in the garden around the building.  Another creature which shouldn't exist in Germany.  He/she got removed to a safe enclosure.

3.  WELT had a piece today talking over SPD/Green Party plans to make the combustion engine production even more unattractive to the German consumer.  

Yes, you have to wonder how those AfD folks get so many free gifts to interest voters in voting for them.

4.  N-TV had some segment this AM.....Russian logistics is having a problem providing ammo and weapons.  It was noted that in one Russian unit at the front....the 22 men had two rifles that were operational.  

5.  Chase on-line bank coming to Germany?  I read this in the AM business news.  I would question how they will be accepted (already a lot of German banks who have on-line services).
