So this is still considered a democracy?

    Tell me, what is the context that makes it okay for the German government to put the interests of another country over the interests of its own citizens? Because clearly no one voted for this.

      When I see that the family next door gets robbed, raped and murdered, I do what I can to help them. This is not only in their but also in my interest, because then I may reasonably expect that the society would also help my own family should they have to experience the same hell. I don't want to live in a world where someone can commit the worst crimes and no one cares because "it is not in their interest". I guess that's part of what is called civilization.
