Think I'm nuts? It's the official platform of SPD:

The SPD leaders, whose party is lagging Merkel’s Christian Democrats in the polls by 15 percentage points, said Germany would have to nearly double current defense spending from 37 billion euros to meet the NATO target. That would make it the largest military power in Europe - a goal they said “no one could want” given Germany’s Nazi history.

Instead, they said, Germany should focus on building a strong European defense union and, ultimately, a European army - a stance that may resonate with a deeply pacifist German public that remains skeptical of military engagements.

Keep in mind, they laughed at Churchill, proudly declaring he was a warmongering eccentric, if not downright delusional, literally right up until the Sudentenland. And all the Liberals of the day claimed "Peace in Our Time."

We really should be thinking about how to divide Germany into Saxony, Prussia, Bavaria, Hannover, etc.and if Morganthau was right all along.

This is one of my favorite pictures.

My other one is Trump leaning back arms folded with Abe standing next to him while Mutti the Nag is lecturing him.

And the one of Trump sitting calmly at the Mar A Lago while people run around blurry in the background.

the German national election was today: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_German_federal_election#Opinion_polls

will see how well the German Right (center left and conservative right) does today

before today's election, the German Right was CDU, FDP, and AfD, and is 362 seats (out of a total of 733 seats in German Parliament)

About 52.8% votes for the German Right which is CDU, FDP, and AfD with about 83% of the votes counted. It was a clear rebuke of the German Left and especially their open border policies.

Ironic, since the British general who wrote the novel "The Third World War" way back in the 1970s predicted that West Germany would never want to reunite with East Germany since the West Germans did not want a massive influx of leftist voters.

Too much unjustified dooming all over.

AfD is the 2nd biggest party in Germany now, 20+% more seats than the biggest left party, SPD .

Both SPD and the Greens lost a shitload of seats, and Die Linke's gains didn't offset the losses of the other two left parties.

In a NORMAL State, CDU/CSU would be bringing in AfD for a Right Government.

Or stealing AfD's platform in the next election.

The real question is how scared CDU/CSU is and how that weighs against neoliberal devotion.

each German terrorist act like a car driving into a crowd or a stabbing in public equated to at least a 2% drop in the polls for them

AfD has 20% of the Bundestag.

The only potential alternative to a coalition with AfD as junior partner to CDU is a "Kenya Coalition": Red-Black-Green.

Which will piss off many CDU/CSU voters as the government will increase taxes, regulation, etc.

GERMANY RESTARTS AFGHAN REFUGEE FLIGHTS IN POST ELECTION U-TURN

Germany’s back in the Afghan refugee game, landing 155 in Berlin yesterday after a sly election-time pause.

The CDU and SPD, fresh off dodging an AfD surge, greenlit the move, with 3,000 more queued up in Islamabad - part of 48,000 taken since 2021, costing taxpayers hundreds of millions.

The halt came after brutal attacks by Afghan nationals - like the rampage in Munich, killing 2 and injuring 28, or the Aschaffenburg daycare stabbings that killed a toddler.

The Interior Ministry blamed 'logistics,' but critics smell political optics.

Ex-Interior Minister Horst Seehofer once admitted some evacuees were rapists and on terror watchlists.

Yet, CDU’s Friedrich Merz, once hawkish, now shrugs, 'No one wants closed borders.'

CDU, FDP


Those two are about as 'right' as some young fool who answers pollsters 'yes' to 'Do you support socialism'.

Germany's Overton Window is quite different.

NURSE IN GERMANY SENDS MESSAGE TO THE WORLD (An open letter - Eye opener)

Yesterday, at the hospital, we had a meeting about how the situation here and the other Munich hospitals are unsustainable. Clinics cannot handle the number of migrant medical emergencies, so they are starting to send everything to the main hospitals. Many Muslims are refusing treatment by female staff, and we women are now refusing to go among those migrants. Relations between the staff and migrants are going from bad to worse. Since last weekend, migrants going to the hospitals must be accompanied by police with K-9 units. Many migrants have AIDS, syphilis, open TB and many exotic diseases that we in Europe do not know how to treat.

If they receive a prescription to the pharmacy; they learn they have to pay cash, this leads to unbelievable outbursts, especially when it is about drugs for the children. They abandon the children to the pharmacy staff with the words: So, cure them yourselves. So the police are not only guarding the clinics and hospitals, but also the large pharmacies.

We ask openly where are all those who welcomed the migrants in front of TV cameras with signs at train stations ? Yes, for now, the border has been closed, but a million of them are already here and we will definitely not be able to get rid of them.

Until now, the number of unemployed in Germany was 2.2 million. Now it will be at least 3.5 million. Most of these people are completely unemployable. Only a minimum of them have any education. What is more, their women usually do not work at all. I estimate that one in ten is pregnant. Hundreds of thousands of them have brought along infants and little kids under six, many emaciated and very needy. If this continues and Germany re-opens its borders, I am going home to the Czech republic. Nobody can keep me here in this situation, not even for double the salary back home. I came to Germany to work, not to Africa or the Middle East! Even the professor who heads our department told us how sad it makes him to see, but worth the read...especially the cleaning woman, who has cleaned every day for years for 800 euros and then meets crowds of young men in the hallways who just wait with their hands outstretched, waiting for free, and when they don't get it, they throw a fit. I really don't need this, but I am afraid that if I return home, at some point it will be the same in the Czech Republic. If the Germans, with their systems, cannot handle this, then guaranteed, back home will be total chaos...

You - who have not come in contact with these people have absolutely no idea what kind of badly behaved desperadoes these people are, and how Muslims act superior to our staff, regarding their religious accommodation.

For now, the local hospital staff have not come down with the diseases these people brought here, but with so many hundreds of patients every day of this is just a question of time.

In a hospital near the Rhine, migrants attacked the staff with knives after they had handed over an 8 month old on the brink of death, who they dragged across half of Europe for three months. The child died two days later, despite having received top care at one of the best pediatric clinics in Germany. The pediatric physician had to undergo surgery and the two nurses are recovering in the ICU. Nobody has been punished. The local press is forbidden to write about it, so we can only inform you through e-mail. What would have happened to a German if he had stabbed the doctor and nurses with a knife? Or if he had flung his own syphilis infected urine into a nurses face and so threatened her with infection? At a minimum, he would have gone straight to jail and later to court. With these people so far, nothing has happened. And so I ask: Where are all those greeters and receivers from the train stations? Sitting pretty at home, enjoying their uncomplicated, safe lives. 1/2

As someone who spent over a year in Germany in the early 1990's, I'm greatly saddened at the extent to which that country has chosen cultural suicide. I lived there, learned their language, even fell in love with a German girl from Hamburg.

It's being proved even more bitterly true than when it was back then - you can never go back. Your experiences were in a unique time and place, and to recount them today is to invite mockery and derision.

It's still a great place, just need to know which parts to avoid, just like in the US.

@stereotomy We're similar that way. I lived there three times: a summer in high school, and two years in the 1980's.

I also had a German girlfriend from Hamburg!
