Germany’s military, the Bundeswehr, recently got the all-clear for a massive increase in investment after parliament voted to exempt defence spending from strict rules on debt.
The country’s top general has told the BBC the cash boost is urgently needed because he believes Russian aggression won’t stop at Ukraine.
“We are threatened by Russia. We are threatened by Putin. We have to do whatever is needed to deter that,” Gen Carsten Breuer says. He warns that Nato should be braced for a possible attack in as little as four years.
“It’s not about how much time I need, it’s much more about how much time Putin gives us to be prepared,” the defence chief says bluntly. “And the sooner we are prepared the better.”
Sad to read that people are ok with this.
Stop contributing to rich people bullshit and step out of the system. Every other move will get us all killed.
That suggests you have an alternative, care sharing?
Yes. Dying for peace is way better than dying for war. Also stop buying shit, stop paying taxes, build and support alternative networks. Educate yourself and especially the young people around you. Stop building walls, start building bridges. The system only “works” because we believe it does.
Oh, you’re suggesting an anarcho commune.
I’m sure those will work.
will war work? No it wont so better to try something different.
Also no i do not mean an anarcho commune. But hey all is better than the slaughter for money we have at the moment.
