    Germany has one of the most obvious reasons to stay on the right side of international law, but if you ask me everybody has enough reasons.

      I’m disappointed by Canada and surprised by Germany. Germany has been very cautious taking any stance which could be labelled “anti-Israel”, for obvious and understandable reasons. So, while Canada caves to Tiny Hands, Germany takes a stand.

      Go, Germany!

    On one hand the German chancellor just met with Donald in Washington and assured he approves regime change so this comes off as a little two faced.

    On the other hand Merz’ party is trying to push for conscription and young Germans are already protesting against it on the streets. No way they’re fighting for Donnie or Bibi. Plus the meeting in Washington was a fever dream. Tons of reporters asking random questions and the Orange just babbled about whatever came to mind for 90% of the time. I bet Merz was glad when it was over.
