a thought i had recently is that merkel may not be as evil as we all think. it could actually be she knows that something really bad will happen in the ME in the near future so she wants so help as many as possible so there will be less overall casualties.(well excluding the obvious civil wars that will occur in the EU)
with renewable energy increasingly becoming more viable the ME will become irrelevant and the west/east will just say fuck em. there may actually be a (((plan))) to do something bad in the ME and it may be known to world leaders. now if you know that something terrible will happen and you want to do something you grasp at whatever straws you can to try and stop it. my thoughts are maybe thats why she is doing such an irrational thing.
food for thought, there are more plausible reasons such as greed but perhaps it really is altruism

Pars Gas Field. Very important for future energy needs. A lot of what's happening in Syria is related to this.

There could be something to that. We often tend to see people who have different motivations from ourselves as being either idiotic or evil. However, a more accurate truth is that everyone has very real reasons for their behavior.
Merkel is a head of state. She wouldn't be there if she were stupid, and more often than not, sane people often act for goals that they perceive as beneficial in some way. Even Hitler was motivated by elevation of the German people and state. Perhaps there are motivations that can't be revealed, but she's in a tough situation and has to act despite strong public disapproval.

Hitler didn't allow his citizens to get raped in the street and call them racists for defending themselves, he actually cared for his people. Merkel is nothing more than a German Hillary.
