Forgetful GermansEighteen years ago the Berlin Wall fell and Eastern Germans got their freedom.
Today, more than 20% of Germans (in both parts of the country) want the Wall back, according to a poll; 73% of East Germans think that socialism was a good idea in principle. Almost 80% of East Germans, according to another poll (published by the "Spiegel" magazine), hold that the school system was one of the particular strengths of the former GDR - faz.net has some of the facts.
Well, they can have both socialism and the Wall back, I won't mind ...
