1. It was a page 3 type story....'Greta' showing up in Amsterdam for a 'Fridays-For-The-Future' rally. She got into some hype over the Palestinian-Israel conflict (pro-Palestine position), and one of the folks (guy in his 20s) tried to take the microphone away.
Anti-Semitic position? Yeah.
I'll predict as the weeks pass, and some of these juveniles get visits at home by the police over hate-speech and anti-Semitic chatter...the FFTF movement will come to new reality.
2. Steel union in Germany (IG Metall) is demanding 32-hour work-week as part of their negotiation.
3. Second and last NFL game in Frankfurt occurred yesterday. Lot of hype over the two games.
4. Just east of Hanau, in some residential neighborhood....another E-car caught on fire. Barely six weeks old...totalled-out. Took about four hours for the fire department to say the blaze was wrapped-up. That's the one obvious you notice from the E-car fires.....it consumes a fair amount of time for the fire guys to say 'finished'.
5. Frankfurt city council agreed on location for the 'new' opera house....as the old building torn down....structure will be on the same spot (likely to be a five-year project). Cost factor? Most everyone anticipates this structure will run to the 1-billion Euro range. Street region? Willy Brandt Platz.....about a 20 minute walk from the train station.
