Apparently Merkel has decided to allow Böhmermann's case to be reviewed by the German courts. SPD, Greens, and LINKE are verbally running amok. The SZ has a collection of reactions. I especially like the last one:

I'm just going to leave this here:
Great job, Merkel. Great fucking job. It's hard to believe that such concentration of pure failure can exist in a single person that's supposed to rule over a non-"banana republic" state. Fucking up economical recovery of the biggest and most developed economical block on the planet (lel austerity), fucking up on the refugee issue, fucking up nuclear energy (only to replace it with coal, which actually releases 20 times more radioactive materials than nuclear energy does LEL), and fucking up German's army to the extent of it using fucking brooms instead of actual weapons... have I missed anything?

Looks like it's supposed to be a stylized sun to me, or possibly a windmill (because Dutch), but I get the point there. What's the German word for Faux Pas? just out of curiosity.

I can't get too mad about how hitler ruined a moustache, but I'm really mad about how he ruined a whole bunch of rotational symmetry.

Why the hell couldn't the damned nazis have chosen a more complicated symbol, like the confederate flag? This would have never happen with that.

Yeah, it is. It really really is. "cheered me up from moderate depression to moderate happiness in less than 24 hours" level of cute. #offtopic

That's nothing; USSR & Maoist China have ruined (for a sizeable portion of humanity) everything colored red. Can't beat that!

Yeah, but still it's more complicated: It seems this is already used in Turkey as justification for even more suppression of free speech.

Once again, everything's just fucked up.

So, Turkey is using 'not getting their way' as justification?
