May 8, 2020
The Turkish President Erdogan suddenly throws open the border with Greece at the end of February. The pressure on Turkey, which would absorb the migrant current, is too large. Support from the EU remains, and therefore Erdogan throws open borders to let the EU experience the pressure. He sets buses to bring migrants to pazarkule, the border crossing between the Turkish Edirne and the Greek chestnuts. With skirmishes on the border between Greece and Turkey, it is getting out of hand. People are injured and there is also a dead person: the Pakistani refugee Mohammed Gulzar. He was hit and died on the spot. Turkey and Greece accuse each other over and over again, deny all allegations and manufacture fake news to make the other black. Greece denies that injuries have fallen and all that someone has been killed, and even puts into embassies to stop every news about the incidents.

A group of Dutch, shady real estate dealers, real estate agents and entrepreneurs earns considerably during the Second World War to trade in Jewish real estate. Millions were involved with the purchase and sale of real estate of led jews. The real estate was - often for amounts that were far below the applicable market prices - purchased from the German occupier that the houses had expropriated. The transactions were kept by the German occupiers in the so-called Verkaufsbücher. Almost all books have been preserved. They contain the addresses and the names of the original owners, the brokers involved and the war copies, plus selling prices. And so a penetrating image of a criminal real estate circuit creates that gold earned money from expropriated, Jewish real estate. Were municipalities informed? Are they aware of the transactions?
