🇩🇪|German youth refuse to die for Washington. They know who the real enemy is.
Germany is set to reinstate mandatory military service. German youth are resisting. Not because they are cowards. But because they are not stupid.
Russia did not invade Germany. Russia did not bomb Berlin. Russia did not occupy Germany. Russia did not deploy nuclear weapons on German soil. Russia did not control Germany's foreign policy. Russia did not drag Germany into wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Iran. Russia did not blow up the Nord Stream pipelines. Russia did not profit from the war in Ukraine.
It was the United States.
The US has 35,000 troops stationed in Germany. The US has deployed B61 tactical nuclear bombs in Germany. The US commands military operations across Europe, Africa, and the Middle East from Ramstein Air Base. The US launches B-52s from Fairford Air Base to bomb Iran. The US trains German pilots at Büchel Air Base to drop nuclear bombs. The US blew up the Nord Stream pipelines the very pipelines that supplied German industry with cheap Russian natural gas. The US profits from the war in Ukraine by selling high-priced liquefied natural gas to Europe and by selling weapons to Germany.
Who is the enemy?
It is not Russia.
It is the empire that occupied Germany, never left, turned Germany into an aircraft carrier, turned German youth into cannon fodder, and turned German industry into ruins.
German youth are resisting.
They say: We will not fight for you. We will not die for you. We will not kill Russians for you. We will not confront a country that has never threatened us.
This is not cowardice. This is clarity.
This is Europe’s awakening.
From Berlin to Paris, from Rome to Madrid, from Athens to Warsaw young people are saying: We do not want war. We do not want NATO. We do not want American protection. We do not want to die for Washington’s empire.
And German youth are not the first. Nor will they be the last.
Who is pushing for war? Rheinmetall Germany’s largest defense contractor is reaping record profits from the war. Its stock price has quadrupled since the outbreak of the war in Ukraine. It is opening new factories in Hungary, Romania, and Lithuania. It plans to build a plant in Ukraine. It employs tens of thousands of workers. It pays out record dividends to shareholders.
The US military-industrial complex Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, General Dynamics, Northrop Grumman has made hundreds of billions of dollars selling weapons to Europe. F-35s. Patriots. THAAD. HIMARS. Abrams tanks. Europe is rearming. The US is counting the money.
The European Commission the EU led by Ursula von der Leyen is turning Europe into the 51st state of the US. She buys US liquefied natural gas. She sends European weapons to Ukraine. She sanctions Russia with Europeans bearing the cost. She is not a leader for Europe; she is Washington’s viceroy for Europe.
Friedrich Merz, a German leader declares that "immigrants are irreplaceable," yet deports Syrian refugees. He says there is "no room for hostility toward foreigners," yet allows police to draw guns on peaceful protesters. He claims "we support Ukraine," yet ships weapons to Israel for use in Gaza. He is not a leader for Germany; he is a German clerk for the US.
Who is footing the bill?
German youth.
They are required to perform military service. They are expected to be ready to die for NATO. They are called upon to confront Russia. They are asked to accept lower wages, higher energy costs, reduced social benefits, and increased taxes all so Germany can rearm, meet US demands, and keep Rheinmetall’s stock price high.
They are told: Russia is the threat.
But they know the truth: Russia has no troops stationed in Germany. Russia has no nuclear bombs in Germany. Russia did not blow up Nord Stream. Russia did not cause Germany’s deindustrialization. Russia did not deprive Germany of cheap energy. Russia did not cause the decline in the standard of living for German youth. It was not Russia that turned Germany into a tool of U.S. foreign policy.
It was the United States.
Russia is not Europe's enemy.
NATO is Europe's enemy. The United States is Europe's enemy. Europe's enemies are those who turn Europe into an aircraft carrier, turn Europe's youth into cannon fodder, and turn Europe's industry into ruins.
German youth are saying: Enough is enough.
And they are right.
@itsmeback_ Once the microorganisms in the soil and the insects in the air have vanished, it will no longer matter whether the global temperature has risen by a few degrees; humanity will simply starve to death.
@itsmeback_ and thereby caused a massive extinction of species.CO2 taxes will not eliminate any of these problems. Even if emissions did not cause climate change, there are a thousand reasons to treat our planet better. 2/3
@ulrikeguerot There are certain people on X, whose posts you can quote without having read them. Why? Because these people have thought things through and done their research before writing anything. Dr. Ulrike Guérot and Mr. Lavrov definitely belong to this group.
🇷🇺|Lavrov Just Said It: Europe Is Preparing for War with Russia. Not the Other Way Around.
Russia's Foreign Minister said it plainly:
"We have no intention of fighting Europe this is nonsense and absurd. It is Europe that is preparing for war with us. Every day they confirm that, by 2030 at the latest, we Europeans must be ready for war. This could become a self-fulfilling prophecy, because they are now investing huge amounts of money in weapons production."
And then he reminded the world of what Putin said:
"If they attack us, we won't hold back. It will be a completely different war, and it will be short."
The Truth: Europe Is the Aggressor, Not Russia
Europe is not a victim. It is a participant. It is not defending itself. It is preparing to attack.
◾NATO has expanded from 16 members in 1990 to 32 today. It has moved from the Elbe to the Russian border. It has absorbed every country it could. It has built bases. It has deployed missiles. It has staged exercises. It has armed Ukraine. It has sanctioned Russia. It has tried to strangle Russia.
◾ Germany is reintroducing conscription. Young Germans are being told they must prepare to fight Russia. They are resisting. They know Russia is not their enemy. They know the real enemy is the empire that occupies their country and turns it into a launchpad.
◾ NATO has set a 2030 deadline for "war readiness." Every member state is increasing defense spending. Every member state is buying weapons. Every member state is preparing for a war with Russia that Russia does not want.
◾The US has 35,000 troops in Germany, nuclear weapons in Germany, and bases across Europe. It uses Europe as a platform to project power. It uses Europe as a runway to bomb the Middle East. It uses Europe as a market for its weapons. It uses Europe as a vassal.
◾ Europe is buying hundreds of billions of dollars in US weapons. F-35s. Patriots. THAAD. Abrams tanks. Himars. The US military-industrial complex is getting richer while Europe gets poorer. The US is selling Europe the rope with which Europe will be hanged.
The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy
Lavrov warned that Europe's preparation for war could become a self-fulfilling prophecy. He is right.
If you spend years telling Russia that you are preparing for war, if you build bases on its border, if you arm its enemies, if you impose sanctions, if you demonize its leadership, if you train its neighbors to fight it, do not be surprised when Russia responds.
Russia has no intention of fighting Europe. It has said so repeatedly. But Russia will defend itself if attacked. And Putin's warning is clear: if Europe attacks, it will not be a long war. It will be short. And Europe will not like the outcome.
What Europe Should Do
Europe should stop being a vassal of Washington. It should stop buying US weapons. It should stop hosting US bases. It should stop preparing for a war that serves American interests, not European ones. It should stop sacrificing its youth, its economy, its sovereignty, and its future for the sake of an empire that sees Europe as nothing more than a forward operating base.
Europe should listen to its young people. They are protesting conscription. They are saying: we will not fight Russia. They are saying: we know who the real enemy is.
The real enemy is not Russia. The real enemy is the empire that occupies Europe, that bombs the Middle East from European soil, that profits from European division, that uses Europe as a pawn in its global game.
Russia is not Europe's enemy. Russia is Europe's neighbor. And neighbors should not be turned into enemies by an empire that lives 5,000 miles away.
🇮🇷🇩🇪|Araghchi Told Germany to Its Face: You Are Covered in Blood. And Germany Had No Answer.
The German Foreign Minister sat across from Iran’s Foreign Minister in New York. He expected a diplomatic conversation. He got a verdict.
Araghchi did not say “we are concerned.” He did not say “we call for restraint.” He said what needed to be said:
Restoring security to the region requires an end to US interference and aggression against Iran.
Germany and other European nations are tolerating US lawlessness and bullying.
Germany’s military and political support is a key factor enabling the Zionist entity’s continued crimes against the region’s peoples.
This complicity must stop. Impunity must end. The occupying entity must be held accountable.
That is not a talking point. That is a charge sheet. And Germany had no answer.
Germany does not just “tolerate” US lawlessness. Germany is a pillar of it.
Ramstein Air Base is the headquarters for US air operations in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. Every bomb dropped on Iran, every drone that surveilled Iranian territory, every wounded American soldier flown out of the war zone, they all passed through Ramstein.
Büchel Air Base hosts US tactical nuclear weapons under NATO’s nuclear sharing arrangement. German pilots train to drop American nuclear bombs. Germany is a nuclear launchpad.
Germany is the second-largest arms supplier to Israel after the United States. It has sold submarines capable of carrying nuclear missiles. It has supplied components for the F-35 fighter jets that bomb Gaza. It has provided ammunition, technology, and political cover.
Germany has consistently protected Israel at the United Nations. It has abstained or voted against ceasefire resolutions. It has refused to sanction Israeli officials. It has refused to enforce the ICC arrest warrant against Netanyahu.
Germany is not a neutral party. Germany is a combatant in everything but name.
What Araghchi Told Germany
He told Germany that its “human rights” rhetoric is hollow. He told Germany that it cannot claim to care about international law while arming the state that violates it every day. He told Germany that its support for Israel makes it complicit in genocide.
He also told Germany that Iran’s nuclear program is peaceful. That Iran was negotiating in good faith. That the US and Israel bombed Iran during those negotiations. That the US and Israel assassinated Iranian leaders and scientists while Iran was at the table. That the US and Israel are now trying to blame Iran for the insecurity in the Strait of Hormuz, the same Strait that the US blockaded, the same Strait that the US turned into a war zone.
And he told Germany that Iran has communicated its conditions to the US. Logical conditions. Necessary conditions. Conditions that any sovereign state would demand.
Germany cannot answer because Germany is guilty.
Germany cannot say “we are neutral” because it hosts US bases, trains with US nuclear weapons, and sells arms to Israel.
Germany cannot say “we support international law” because it refuses to enforce the ICC warrant against Netanyahu and refuses to sanction Israel.
Germany cannot say “we want peace” because it has done nothing to stop the genocide in Gaza, the blockade on Iran, or the war in Yemen.
Germany cannot say “we are a moral authority” because its hands are covered in blood.
The Truth
Araghchi did not go to New York to negotiate with Germany. He went to confront Germany. He went to name Germany’s complicity. He went to tell Germany that its pretending is over.
Germany is not a mediator. Germany is not a neutral party. Germany is not a moral authority. Germany is a US client state that obeys Washington, arms Israel, hosts US bases, and pretends to care about human rights while the bombs fall.
That is the truth. And Araghchi said it to Germany’s face. And Germany had no answer.
We are witnessing a profound and systemic fragmentation of Western civilisation.
What we are experiencing today is the erosion of centuries of cohesive society. The loss of social norms has opened the floodgates for government driven issues like the climate agenda, and the unstoppable flood of illegal migration, eating away at everything we once treasured and fought in world wars to preserve.
A series of interconnected forces have been actively reshaping—and dismantling—the traditional Western way of life. The traditional relationship between the citizen and the state has now been reversed, under the guise of progress and public welfare. Government agencies have hijacked commonplace social norms. We live under a heavy-handed, creeping authoritarianism where bureaucratic bodies claim a form of 'faux authority' to police language, values, and daily behavior.
This overreach replaces social cohesion with the shock of state conformity. The family was the bedrock of society, yet we see marriage disappearing and the collapse of the family structure - all in a generation. Family was once the source of moral instruction, emotional support and economic security (or self-reliance). Marriage is now devalued, religious faith vanishing and individuals left lonely, isolated and disconnected. Sociolologists call it anomie.
Without spiritual or moral compass, communities have fractured, leaving a hole filled by the state.
Radical social change, by normalising transgenderism and alternative lifestyles, has fundamentally changed the cultural landscape. Modern culture prioritises stripping society of its intrinsic, age-old familial and communal ties under ever-shifting social theories and ideological divides.
As spiritual and family ties corrode, human self-worth has shifted dramatically. Money and material wealth have become the ultimate symbols of prominence and success, stripping society of its deeper, intrinsic ancient family and tribal values.
We have also cultivated a permanent non-working way of life, fostering long-term state dependency rather than the dignity of work.
Blackrock is the main beneficiary of the war in Ukraine - Kennedy
Everyone can see that they are making money like mad. They don’t even hide it. They just keep the ordinary people fighting each other.
Democrats and Republicans, rich and poor, one religion against the other. Immigrants against the host country, Russia haters against supporters, …
@maxotte_says Alle Orte und Personen sind frei erfunden. Parallelen zu Pearl Habor oder zu 9/11 oder dem Sender Gleiwitz sind rein zufälliger Natur.
Hier gibt es nichts zu sehen - bitte weitergehen.
@Elke_Austenat Danke für Ihren Beitrag. Als das Internet in den Kinderschuhen stand, dachte ich, großartig, jetzt stehen allen Menschen so viele Informationen zur Verfügung...
Das Fazit nach 3 Jahrzehnten fällt ernüchternd aus.
Für jede dümmliche Position findet sich im Netz eine Bestätigung.
@STANISKRAPIVNIK Trump is in a damned bind: if he bans diesel exports, fuel prices in the US might drop. But then the lights would go out in Europe.
Okay, the European media would publish the answer that always applies: Putin is to blame.
Will Europeans believe that again?
@Marcorio61O A false-flag operation could suddenly make all Western weapons and troops available for Ukraine's plans.
I forgot one last option: peace! Peace with Russia would be the best defense for what remains of Ukraine.
@Marcorio61O Yet, there are quite a few of those https://t.co/NeONndYErf answer: Gleiwitz, 9/11, or Pearl Harbor could serve as the pretext for defending Ukraine. A potential Pyrrhic victory over Russia cannot be in anyone's interest.
@DanieleGanser Neutralität eines jeden Landes wäre ein erster Schritt zum ewigen Frieden ( im Sinne von Kant).
Die Durchsetzung des UN-Gewaltverbots wäre ein zweiter Schritt.
Würde fast nichts kosten :)
Frieden muss nur die Idee werden, deren Zeit gekommen ist.
Es IST Zeit! Jetzt!
@beckerpeloso@KateriSeraphina Wenn man sich selbst erkannt hat, bedarf es keiner Anerkennung, wenngleich sie natürlich willkommen wäre. Man tut, was getan werden muss und man sagt, was gesagt werden muss.
Jeder kann und sollte ebenso handeln.
Ein Stoiker würde verstehen, was ich sagen wollte ;)
@Trias_Aschezelt Notwendige Routinen? Essen, Schlafen, Arbeiten?
Die glücklichen Menschen die ich kenne, sind glücklich, weil sie ihre Berufung gefunden haben und es schaffen, dieser ohne sich verbiegen zu müssen folgen zu können.
@MartinKuban Diese Umfrage wird etwas über die Unzufriedenheit der Wähler zeigen.
Schlimmer als die Unzufriedenheit ist mMn die Spaltung in der Gesellschaft. Es gibt keine Gespräche mehr zwischen den beiden Lagern. Dafür bis zum Untergang, oder dagegen. Der Hass verhindert jeden Austausch.
@GfD_offiziell Die Gesellschaft für "Demokratie" möchte also darüber bestimmen, wer welche Meinung haben- und aussprechen darf? Verstehe ich das richtig?
Die Freiheit seine Meinung zu äußern, ist eine Grundvoraussetzung dafür, dass eine Demokratie funktionieren kann.
