They did not struggle to come up with it. They struggled to get a puppet of Putin to allow this funding to be passed where it needs to go. Victor orban blocked the shit out of it.
Just give Orban a rank in the Swedish military. I hear that’s how those little man syndrome wanna-be dictators like to be placated. Ensign Victor, reporting for düty.
Oh shit! I better go donate to the armed forces of Ukraine again.
Fuck your propaganda.
No, this is actually huge for NATO and comparatively a big show of strength. NATO isn’t a monolithic military like the US or Russian military. NATO is an alliance spanning the globe and nations from all over the world are participating. The amount of logistics required to pull it off is tremendous and that alone shows what they can do.
If we compare that to the largest “maneuver” Russia held in recent memory, that was the shoring up of their invasion forces in 2018 along the Ukranian border, disguised as a maneuver.
While meat wave tactics will eventually wear down even the staunchest defender, Russia is just as stuck in Ukraine as Ukraine is trying to push out Russia. Ukraine is a single country, not part of an alliance like NATO. While they receive a lot of aid, a lot is still being withheld (think certain long range missile systems, aircraft, etc.). Numbers don’t matter all that much against superior logistics and the ability to raze the enemies logistics to the ground.
Remember how columns of supply trucks got obliterated in the first days of the invasion? Russia tried to go for Blitzkrieg but failed hard. If your supply lines are cut, you’re done. Doesn’t matter how many soldiers you got. Once they are starved of ammunition and food, your army stops being effective at being an army. They can barely keep an army supplied that sits right at their own border, while suffering relatively few strikes at any of their infrastructure within their own borders.
NATO demonstrating that they can coordinate such large numbers and keep supply going, should sufficiently scare the ever living crap out of most opposing military analysts, because that’s how you win wars.
I love that capitalism is more concerned about setting precedent here than saving lives, yet nonsense like civil forfeiture in the US leads to millions stolen from regular people each year. It’s always only about whose bottom line is affected. Can’t make a case for seizing foreign assets and redistributing them. That would mean everyone can do it and after all, it’s a large club of very white gentlemen who have backroom agreements on this kind of stuff. If they do this with Russian assets, what’s gonna stop China from doing the same with US assets!? How could we ever keep up with international trade and investments and tax evasion schemes, if we allow such horrible treatment of the most vulnerable billionaires of our society?
Shit’s fucked.
They love Israel, because Israel kills the people they hate even more than Jews in modern Germany: Muslims and “brown people” as it were. That’s all there’s to it. Enemy of my enemy and everything. Their whole platform is about stopping immigration and deporting foreigners.
It’s not a half truth, it’s a full truth. Doesn’t mean your statements are untrue or mutually exclusive. There were certainly Nazis being used and recruited directly into other services on the end of the allies, no doubt. US rocket development is a great example on that.
But I am talking about the majority of just the basic German administration, public, medical, engineering and civil servants, and just the people in general. That’s hundreds of thousands of jobs and structures that simply couldn’t be replaced but also wasn’t filled with the brightest and smartest super suited to the things you’re talking about. It wasn’t just the SS and top brass that were Nazis. It went through and through the entire society. And you really cannot simply throw these kinds of people in jail without having replacements ready. Up to 45 million Germans were part of Nazi organizations and thus affiliated with the ruling party that had been overthrown.

There were simply too many, so prosecution was deemed impossible at scale. It’s a really interesting process, but the allies tried, but it lead to problems
One of the greatest failures of both past and current administrations. The reason a majority of Nazis weren’t put on trial was simply: If they had, every single structure would have fallen apart, because they were in every level of administration, etc. There simply - from the perspective of the allies - weren’t any people that could replace these structures adequately. So they didn’t pursue. Same with the 2008 financial crisis. A single banker got charged. Why? Because they would have had to fully dismantle every established system to really root out the people responsible, because they’re so interconnected. Stabilizing the shit ass system was a priority over seeking justice.
It always will be, if the infestation just spreads far and deep enough. Which is becoming a real concern again.
Saw a right wing outlet do an interview with Sellner, the main speaker at that event yesterday.
Typical right wing nonsense.
“Immigrants who are extremist and do not integrate must leave! But only in the confines of the existing legal framework, or the way we can adjust it!”
The issue is and has always been: how do you send someone back if you do not know where back is? They destroy their papers, lie about who they are and now what? They address this by not addressing it as hr says, those that do that must be expelled from Germany. WHERE TO, MOTHERFUCKER?
And that’s where the issue comes up. They are discussing setting up an “example state” somewhere in Africa where they can just deport anyone to. Even cheekily mentioned that those that wish to help immigrants can go and do that in that state.
WHAT STATE YOU FUCKWIT? Where will this be set up without massively violating some States sovereignty?
They don’t need to have or display practical solutions, since it is all dog whistles anyway. Their cesspool voter base knows that this means camps and deportation into said camps, no matter where they are.
Love the cunt banging on about how economic migrants are bad and yet somehow they want to help the countries of origin by stopping their brain drain towards Germany, all in a time where our replacement levels and thus support for elderly are impossible without migration.
These racist fucks always sing the same tunes.
Aren’t we all just confused and dazed muppets bumping into each other in the twilight of our world? I wish his name was juice box.
