Absolutely. In these times he is sorely missed for his political actions and his power. Germany needs someone like him as soon as possible...

I had a short chat with him after a show he did in 2003 and was absolutely impressed by his wit, his humor and intelligence, his modest self image and the clarity of the character he is on stage vs. the person Christoph Schlingensief.

Elfriede Jelinek is right, there will be nobody like him. Unfortunately.
