No sooner has the AfD moved into parliament in Bavaria, there is already stress. A new seating arrangement is needed, but nobody wants to sit next to the nationalists. So the lonely representatives of the invented people's will are repudiating and declaring that the others would "turn" the good old homeland into a "multi-ethnic settlement zone". Sweet, the AfD. Convert. As if that had not happened already.

Probably the Bavarian AfD is afraid of panic that in the state parliament it will soon end up being like its comrades in Baden-Württemberg. Since 2016, the President of the Landtag is called Muhterem Aras. She is a woman, a green person and - care! - comes from the Eastern Anatolian Elmaaaç [Elma-atsch]. It is even said that she is a Muslim, although she is probably pretty shy about religion.

Miserable Aras, with the power of her office, is the kryptonite of the AfD. I would not know how to torment the alternativeists for Germany more than with her at the chief desk in parliament. An Anatolian with scepter, the inevitable face of Multikulti, the intercultural salt in the national wound - that hurts. Aras embodies the open flank of the Volkish faction. In her presence, the party is distracted and weakened.

The AfD has of course seen through the sneaky maneuver: Emil Sänze, a representative for the district of Rottweil, already complained in a press release, Aras was hoisted into office, "only to drive the AfD in the parade". Again and again he pleaded with the Parliament to re-occupy the office: "So it can not and should not continue in a Baden-Württemberg state parliament with the best will!" Aras was overwhelmed, a "sad person", the "one almost sorry" could. Impressive: The president needs nothing to do, their mere presence is enough to turn tough men into weak politicians who talk about feelings.

This week she has again driven an AfD politician to white heat. The minutes of last Wednesday's session reads like a play in three acts.

First Act: At the request of the AfD, abortions and a day care booklet of the Amadeu Antonio Foundation are discussed. Just so you can imagine the level of debate, a few words from Speaker Carola Wolle: "Feminists count as women anyway" and "They [the SPD] look away when their Antifa ground forces use violence against politically dissenters" ,

Act Two: FDP politician Hans-Ulrich Rülke faces the SPD and says in the direction of AfD: "Look back 80 years in our history, when the predecessors of these MPs were in concentration camp because they voted against Hitler's Enabling Act, and the intellectual forerunners of people like Mr Räpple marched through the Brandenburg Gate in a goose-step. "

Third act, big showdown : Swabian turmoil, many noises. Räpple calls for a public order because he has been insulted, the other parties hold against, the President of the Landtag tries to provide peace. But Räpple does not calm down. Not even when the President of Parliament gave him "a personal statement" afterwards at the lectern. After several warnings she directs him out of the hall. But Räpple refuses. In the end, security officers are called to accompany him outside.

For the first time in the history of Baden-Württemberg, a deputy was thrown out by the police. But much more exciting: at last the ranks of the democratic parties are closing. They defend themselves against the right-wing populists, across all party differences: the AfD provokes, the FDP defends the SPD, a green throws a troublemaker from the hall and the CDU applauds. In Baden-Wuerttemberger parliament democratic values ​​are closed defended.

Räpple, by profession "Hypnoanalytiker" and non-medical practitioner, by attitude pro-Chemnitz supporters and ultra right, is known as Pöbler in the country. He calls Andersgesinnte ever as a "traitors" or "scumbag" and has apparently not always otherwise under control. If Räpple were Muslim, the AfD would probably have identified his behavior as a cultural problem.

Of course, there must be no AFD spectacle without racist encore. For those at the end of the turbulent plenary debate Wolfgang Gedeon, known as the chief antisemitic of his party. In the direction of parliamentary president, he said: "You can lead a parliament in Anatolia, but not in Germany." Uiuiui, but someone wants to know. Unfortunately, as a connoisseur of the Anatolian culture of debate, I have to disagree: No, that's exactly how you run a parliament in Germany after AfD politicians have performed like people's representatives in Anatolia.

So Muhterem Aras also expelled Gedeon from the hall. There it was two. The whole thing will of course have an aftermath. The AfD has new martyrs for freedom of expression and takes the opportunity to face their trauma again. In a press release, the faction complains that President Aras overrules "continuing AfD-hostile hate speech", twisting "AfD-members of the speech in the mouth" and was even completely mean.

My sincere condolences.
