1. Another knife attack. From the basic story told this AM....there on Sunday evening in Lauf an der Pegnitz (Nuremberg area)....police got called.
34-year old Iranian guy....got into a crazy sort of way at the train station of the town. Cops tried to settle the guy down....he refused...rushing them with a knife. They shot the guy dead.
2. French 1st round of legislative election results? Macrons party in 3rd place....barely 20-percent. Le Pen Party won with 34-percent .
3. Based on some type of perceived threat....US bases in Germany have gone to Threatcon Charlie....meaning a fair amount of security has been added. Who represents the threat? Unknown so far.
4. Odd Euro Cup soccer event. Lamine Yamal, at 16, plays for the Spanish team, and actually is a starter. I've watched the kid play, and he's as good as any player on the German team.
Koln city government has received a complaint.....it appears that the kid (age 16) falls under Germany's youth protection law. Meaning? He can't 'work' after 11 PM. There's talk of fining the team.
Spanish law? Well...between 16 and 18.....you are supposed to have a note from your parents. There's also a law about a max of 30 hours a week of 'work'.
This being some kind of strategy because the German team expects to play Spain shortly? Well....yeah, that might be true.
