ChesneyChrist: Russia is a poor country that spends a lot on weapons whereas Europe is naively modern. A strong economy that spends almost nothing on the army believing that disputes can be overcome through trade, the rule of law and honest elections.
Why do you think Russia is a poor country? On what facts are you stating that? The worlds richest man Putin is living there! How do you think he got this money? From poor potato farmers in Ukraine or a seal hunter in Sakhalin? No, it's easier to become rich in Russia today then in USA. USA and Britain is like the dirty old p*dophile who are not allowed to play with the children even though they really would like to! But their days as powerful and intimidating are rapidly running out and what's left is someone else feeding them with a spoon and change their diapers. Handicapped as they are.

fantaziya: Don't you think if Germany stayed neutral It would be better for Country? Especially what they have done to the World and especially to USSR (1939-1945)

Just want to know your opinion
we are neutral, we dont send Wepons or Armed Forces...... all we do is open our Homes to the ones fleeing and if we wouldnt do that we woud be just as cold hearted and barbaric as the person who started all that.

The modern German army should not worry you or anyone anywhere in the world. Recruitment and numbers of combat soldiers are governed by dozens of oversight agreements and treaties by the US occupation authorities, which number over 40. If they wished to add a single soldier to their combat numbers, then 20 non combat soldiers must be allowed to join... The german army wasn't even allowed to decide on which side to put insignias on for their berets. Initially they wished to have them on the right side so when the soldier saluted, his fingers on the right hand would touch the insignia as the French soldiers. The American authorities vetoed that idea as they dislike the French. The lists are endless of needing authorization by the Americans. Even to who ia allowed , or rather who is not allowed to join the military: no one from any of the old German aristocracy or descendants of notable soldiers from any past German military history. This came into effect in the mid 1950's. Each potential recruit 's name is checked over the lists of family names that are banned from joining.....and ten thousand other things. The modern Bundeswehr has no worries about spending on their arms; they should concentrate on spending on their feet to make sure they have good boots in which to run if anyone bothers to attack Germany. The so called free-democratic German army is not the old Prussian army or Wehrmacht. The last time I saw a live soldier he has dressed like a slob, uniform totally disarrayed , shirt hanging out of his trousers , his tunic unbuttoned AND he was wearing white socks and loafer style shoes...no laces , not even military issued shoes ...Hippies on the street were better tired, oh, and no cap...he had lost it . In the old style military he would have been locked up in the brig for a week and fined . Hell, the old Red Brigade terrorists and Bader-Meinhof terrorists were better dressed !rolling on the floor laughing

Anti-Russia xenophobia “could cause mass poverty in Germany,”

Robert Habeck,
Germany’s economic and energy minister, is warning that his country might want to take it easy with all the Russia bashing and associated sanctions if it wants to remain prosperous.
Germany’s planned boycott of Russian oil and gas, for instance, will only hurt Germans by ushering in mass unemployment and poverty.

“If we flip a switch immediately, there will be supply shortages, even supply stops in Germany,” Habeck told public broadcaster ARD in a recent interview.
Europe’s second largest economy, Germany is “intensely” searching for ways to diversify its energy supplies in the medium term. However, anything too abrupt will decimate the country.

A member of Germany’s Green Party, Habeck warned of “mass unemployment, poverty, people who can’t heat their homes, people who run out of petrol,” and more if Germany stops importing Russian oil and gas. Russia has halted ammonium nitrate fertilizer exports for at least the next month.
As reported by the Guardian (U.K.), Germany is one of the most dependent European countries on Russian energy. About 55 percent of its natural gas, 52 percent of its coal and 34 percent of its mineral oil come straight from the Kremlin.
Even so, German authorities are planning to give up all Russian coal by summer and phase out all Russian oil by the end of the year. This will almost certainly destroy Germany and its robust economy, not to mention its citizens.

“With coal, oil and even gas, we are step by step in the process of making ourselves independent,” Habeck said. “But we can’t do it in an instant. That’s bitter, and it’s not a nice thing morally to confess to, but we can’t do it yet.”

Cold hearted, barbaric, the person who started all that????????????????

MOSCOW, Feb 19 (Reuters) - German Chancellor Olaf Scholz's dismissal of Moscow's assertion of genocide in the east Ukraine region of Donbass held by pro-Russia rebels is "unacceptable," Interfax newsagency reported on Saturday, citing the foreign ministry.

"This is not for German leaders to make a joke of genocide issues," the Russian foreign ministry said, according to Interfax.

Earlier on Saturday, Scholz said Russian President Vladimir Putin's assertion that Ukraine was committing genocide in the Donbass region was ridiculous.
And count how many days after Olaf's joke, Russia started Special military operation began.
Because it was not just Scholz's opinion it was an opinion of EU.
And by the way, why Germany sent to Ukraine field crematories?

If Russia wanted to really be spiteful, it would stop all energy supplies into Europe & revenge all the sanctions imposed on them .
Then impose a wheat and other natural food resources ban & them see a famine somewhat reminiscent of 3rd world African country , who will hopefully set up charity organisations to feed the poor starving people of Europe.

ChesneyChrist: King of the barnyard basically. You could be more of a somebody, and perhaps less anxious, by living in a priest-infected backwater where you're so much larger for having narrow horizons.

Then how you call democratic bombing and democratic NATO special military operations all over the globe?
Or it is different?

Conrad73: aren't you a bit confuddled?
Last time I checked,Germany is a sovereign Country within the EU,member of NATO!
Furthermore,since there is no EU-Armed Force in Existence,it is up to its Memberstates to organize their National Defense!
no EU armed forces- not yet

but they shouldn't forget something:the main income,over 40% (?) of Russia's GDP comes from energy supply.One more thing: they never wanted to be part of the world,after the regime they struggled and wanted to keep their leading position in the world BUT alone it's impossible, especially today

Jaavisst: I don't know if Condor is Canadian. He states in his post "here in Germany".
Maybe he is a German who lives in Canada. His profile says he lives in British Columbia

There are more countries in the World to buy energy, fertilizers, wheat, natural gas e.t.c. from Russia.
Not just UE, UK, Canada and USA.
And with a prices on barrel on market, who knows who going to win.

Russia will come out of this stronger then ever and the west weaker.
It will be like in a schoolyard in the future. Two teams picking players and no one wants to be last picked.
Screaming pick me, pick me! To join the Russian federation/China. No one wants to be on the fat lazy team of USA/remnants of EU any more.

I think Sweden should cut the electric cables in the Baltic sea to Germany. Our electric bills have gone through the roof because of stupid green German politics. They put them self in a mess by shutting of nuclear power and decided to go with wind power. It's impossible to run 100% wind. The control systems will crash. Think like this. A car distributor with points needs to have a capacitor or the points will burn.
It's the same with wind power. When it blows hard and there is no other system that can absorb the redundancies it will collapse.
If you want to have a good job in the future it will be to junk wind power towers.
