Die Deutschen sind ewige Nörgler, genau wie die Juden, das weiß ich schon lange.

Der Autor hat Recht, das sind sie auch. Und sie sind neben einem hohen Jammerniveau vor allem eins: Erfüller. Ich kenne einige Helfer in Flüchtlingesunterkünften, die haben noch nie ein Wort mit Flüchtlingen geredet, ihr Tun ist das Bearbeiten, Beklatschen, Helfen, sich gut fühlen.

Tuvia Tenenbohm (TT) will sich nicht gut fühlen, sondern berichten, hart an der Wirklichkeit. Was er erlebt, ist besser als jedes deutsche Kabarett, deren besonders Merkmal nach Kraus ja das ist: „Nichts wird dem deutschen Humoristen zum größeren Erlebnis als die Vorgänge der Verdauung.“ Die Steigerung davon: nun, ein Quer-Ödiant hat dort kurzem ein Bier getrunken und zu seinen verächtlichen Abitur-Sprüchen über Politiker mit wachsender Diskriminierungslust gerülpst.

Davon ist TT weit entfernt, er geht dorthin, wo es klar wird, wie das Volk redet, in Taxen, Flüchtlingsunterkünften und er besucht jene, die sich leicht davon absetzen. Also Politiker. Großartig sein Treffen mit Grünen Politikern auf der Suche nach den ersten Queer-Flüchtlingen aus Syrien.

TT hat nicht nur Titel und Thesen seines Buches gelebt, sondern auch Demokratie. Besucht er mit zuhörendem Temperament doch alle Parteien des aktuellen Spektrums jener Volksvertreter, die er ausnahmslos durch seine spitze Feder der skeptischen Analyse laufen lässt.

Dies ist immerhin mehr als die Mehrheit der deutschen Journalisten sich erlaube: sie wollen mit den bösen Mädchen und Buben ja nicht reden, sondern lieber über sie rülpsen. Sie wollen aus ihnen Radikale zaubern, ein Feindbild also, das sich leicht bekämpfen lässt.

Es gibt unterschiedliche Wege, sich der aktuellen Problematik zu nähern. Man könnte die Werke der monotheistischen Religionen studieren oder kulturgeschichtliche Vergleiche ziehen, man könnte tief einsteigen in das Konzept des Multikulturalismus, ohne Vorurteile, und viele kämen zu guten Einsichten bzw. würden zum ersten Mal ihr Weltbild hinterfragen.

Die Wirklichkeit zu hören, sich ihr anzunähern, mit diesem Bericht eines Juden, eines Ausländers - was könnte glaubwürdiger sein? Dieser Mann ging dorthin wo es weh tut, vor allem den deutschen Moralaposteln und jenen Politikern, die ihren Hals immer weiter in den Sand stecken, während ihnen die Wähler weglaufen.

Ich fürchte, die Rechtschaffenen, die es bitter nötig hätten, neben intensiver Flüchtlingsarbeit eine Pause zu nehmen, um nachzudenken, sie werden dieses Buch nicht lesen. Stattdessen hören sie ewigen Abiturienten wie Christoph Süß oder Konstantin Wecker zu, einem Todenhöfer oder dem Fußballlehrer Streich.

TT sieht es am Horizont: das neue deutsche Über Alles, nur wir, wir nehmen so viele auf, wir sind….aber bitte lesen Sie selbst. ( )

Tenenbom has a distinctive style of writing, fairly irreverent, but he does give everyone he meets a chance to explain themselves. In this book he's asked by his publisher to go and look at the refugee issue in Germany. What follows is quite a fascinating read. Tenenbom can speak German, Arabic as well as Hebrew and English so combines on the street interviews with whoever he comes across with talks with Germans in positions of authority. The mix works well and gives the reader a look at a crosssection of opinion from all walks of German life.
First the Germans on why they welcomed an unlimited number of migrants - if we didn't it would confirm that we are Nazis, this way we look humane.
The refugees/migrants - are mostly miserable, stuck in group hotels/camps with nothing to do - no jobs, waiting endlessly for interviews so they can move forward, cramped, infrastructure not maintained, low grade meals. Problems with fighting between migrant groups and drugs. Weird viruses and skin infections afflict many.

Tenenbom talks to those on the right and finds a lot of what they say is common sense but because it is not in line with government policy they are considered far right and ostracised. He meets assimilated German Turkish writer, Akif Pirinçci who since expressing anti-migrant views has been censored and boycotted by society. When he goes out on the street he is yelled at, spat at and is not welcome at many local restaurants. It's easy to spot his home, it's the only one on the street with broken steps and a paint spattered front door thanks to an antifa group. His cat detective books are no longer stocked by amazon.com (thought they still sell Mein Kampf & Ku Klux Klan books), his e-books no longer available. His publisher Random House says he no longer exists and contacted Germany's leading bookstore chain, Thalia, to have all his works removed from the shelves. All this because of a statement that was misreported by the media.
Tenenbom does say that this writer holds anti-migrant views but the backlash against him has been extreme. He's got written apologies from the media but nobody knows that because it's not general knowledge.
Tenenbom asks, when in the past does this happen to anyone? They hold a view that the migrants will bring more problems to the German society and for this they are ostracised by their community.

Tenenbom also meets many from the left of society including the Mayor of Koln, who struggle to not blame the influx of one million migrants on the many current problems Germany is suffering through - a rise in crime, drugs, the sex attacks in Koln during New Year's Eve etc.
An interesting and important book, because Tenenbom has the chutzpah to talk to everybody not just those who have the 'correct' opinions. ( )
