Below, women listen to the speeches. It would appear that deutsche marks & Shpence’ had a massive sale on black cloth recently.

Good on you German patriots!
You do well to be proud of yourselves; no country in Europe deserves more respect. You’ve worked, sacrificed like none other. You alone redeemed your benighted eastern kin, an accomplishment your querulous European neighbors seldom appreciate.
Never let others disparage your innate character – hard working, ethical, honest. A people who revere science as well as creative genius. You don’t need to import “soul” from gypsy fiddlers or ersatz fakirs: you are Goethe and Beethoven and Mendelssohn.
When the Turk exploits you at every turn, or when the Greeks demand more than they earn, you’re susceptible to their projected guilt trips. Don’t be. Contrast your reparations to the Jewish people to the response of the Turk to survivors of their genocide of the Armenians. There is no moral equivalence.
If you let yourself become Turk, you take on the burden of sins he himself refuses to acknowledge. The Greeks will never be your friends no matter how much forgiveness you extend for injudicious loans. You aren’t responsible for French occupation of the Maghreb; France will remain your ally inconstant as ever.
You’ve been brainwashed. Mohammedans are past masters of that art. Face it; you’ve been pwned.
Little by little let your church bells take back your cities. Perhaps they’ll even bring you back to the Church. There’s still time, don’t wait. Go back just a little to the G-d you know as love.
Do it. Because know this: If you do nothing you will be wrenched away to an alien hell 14 centuries old. To a place of no return.
