Friedrich Merz: One country´s actions can trigger a chain reaction

When Merz predecessor, Angela Merkel, decided to open Germany´s borders, she could not foresee the problems that her approach would create. Suddenly, there were conflicts all over the EU when countries like Poland and Hungary rejected her open borders policies. She lived to regret her decision when she publicly stated "Multikulti ist Tot" and mass migration became so intense that it threatens Schengen Treaty arrangements. In her case, her decision did not involve engaging Germany in an all out war.

Friedrich Merz decision to authorize the use of German long range weapons against the Russian Federation is a completely different cup of tea with catastrophic consequences. Berlin has been told, over and over again (by Berlin I mean the German authorities) that such measure will in effect mean a declaration of war against the Russian Federation and that, therefore, the Russian Federation will be entitled to attack Germany. What Friedrich Merz has done, unitelaterally, is to put every single NATO country on a direct collision course with the Russian Federation.  Now, how can the Russian Federation attack Germany? Nuclear War.

Herr Merz got elected with less than 24% of the vote, taking into account that CDU did not get 24% of the vote. CDU/CSU got about 24% of the vote. His coalition partner - SPD - got 16% of the vote. It remains to be known what the German public actually thinks about Friedrich Merz statement and about the consequences of such statement. 

Friedrich Merz took such decision not as a NATO member. This was not a NATO decision. It was Germany´s decision, but it is a far reaching decision that will undermine Europe. I would say that such decision is not supported by Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty. Article 5 refers to defense, not offense. 

Now, Chancellor Merz sent a Panzer group to Lithuania, a country that is pretty close to the Russian Federation. It is easy to see that if there is war between the Russian Federation and Germany then German forces in Lithuania will be targetted. 

We have not seen any reactions from other European countries. Do other countries want to be involved in an all out war? Like Angela Merkel, Friedrich Merz had no consultations with other European countries regarding the statement that he just made. Is this a German thing? i.e. making decisions that will affect everybody else, without even asking what other people in the European Union think about it?

This confirms my belief that Britain´s exit from the European Union was a very good thing. I also believe that dismantling NATO would be the next good thing. Why? Because one country can create a disaster for everybody else. So, if Germany wants war with the Russian Federation, Germany alone can pay the price of such a disastrous decision.

Ukraine: promises sound good, but are they good?

Sitting in an office with the television set by my side watching the news, I suddenly was focused on a report coming from New York, USA, about the Twin Towers and airplanes crashing onto the sides of the towers and couldn't possibly imagine that just a few weeks later war was to arrive in Afghanistan, country that was to be subject to carpet bombing. The smoking mountains were on television screens across the world. Just about two years later came yet another disastrous event that was the invasion of Iraq that completely destabilized the Middle East causing wave after wave of refugees. There was Libya, Syria and so forth afterwards.

The present war in Ukraine has been going on for more than a year and there is every indication that it could go on and on, threatening to engulf Europe as a whole. I do remember the war in Yugoslavia, war that ended up with the end of Yugoslavia and that in more than one way led to expansion of NATO that created the present war in Ukraine.

Long before the present war, Ukraine was in trouble, unable to make ends meet, with internal upheaval and ethnic tensions. Western Ukraine did not love Eastern Ukraine very much and World War Two is ample evidence of it when one side of Ukraine supported National Socialist Germany and was very much involved in what we know as the Holocaust and Eastern Ukraine sided with the Allies. Paradoxically, history repeats itself following what happened in Yugoslavia. Croatia and Bosnia Herzegobina were on the side of National Socialist Germany. Heinrich Himmler used to boast about the fact that Muslims from Bosnia Herzegobina joined the SS and were 'good fighters'. It did not come as a surprise the fact that Germany was the first country to recognize an independent Croatia because, after all, Croatia was on the German side during World War Two.

What happens today in the Baltic Republics is no surprise either. SS officers remarked the cruelty of Lithuanians against Jews. They described the scenes of an execution carried out by Lithuanians against Jews. The Lithuanians killed Jewish men, women and children and after the execution they danced on top of the corpses playing accordions and singing.

One conflict after another seems to be waged against people who fought against National Socialist Germany. Yugoslavia was dismantled and all the focus was against Serbia that in two World Wars fought against Germany and Austria. Now the focus is against Eastern Ukraine and against the Russian Federation that as part of the then Soviet Union lost tens of millions of people fighting against National Socialist Germany.

But, going back to the title, how good are the promises and what is the real agenda? The real agenda is to weaken Europe and the USA is using the conflict in Ukraine to weaken Europe and threatening to destabilize Europe with the willing cooperation of European governments that seem all to eager to please warmongering lobbies with complete disregard for their own peoples. In their efforts, adulating politicians are getting rid of outdated equipment that even when it is outdated it will be difficult to replace. Denmark, Netherlands, Norway and others are not known for being military powers and even Germany that was kept under American domination is no military power at all. Warplanes are foreign made and bought from the shelf since Germany was not allowed to develop its war industries. The only pieces of equipment worth mentioning are the Leopard tanks and even so they have proven to be pretty useless in real combat.

Promises here and there and big speeches including speeches made by Ursula von der Leyen, the disastrous former German Defense Secretary and present head of the European Commission can only make a bad situation worse. Present German Chancellor Olaf Scholz talks both ways, sending equipment while expressing fears regarding the involvement of Germany in yet another war. 

War in Europe is coming: Britain will be at war but mainland Britain will be part of the battlefield

General Sir Patrick Sanders is right in terms of preparing Britain for an unavoidable World War Three

As Lithuania provokes the Russian Federation by using the Polish Corridor factor blocking transport links to Kaliningrad, Britain could be at war sooner than later.

Undoubtedly, London and the main capital cities in Britain will be bombed but military manpower will be needed not just in mainland Europe but also in Britain to deal with the catastrophe that will be the direct consequence of nuclear impacts in the United Kingdom, not forgetting campaigns of sabotage against key targets in the United Kingdom. Police forces will have to be replaced by military forces to maintain order in the United Kingdom.

The map shows the impact of just one nuclear head in London, but let us remember that each missile can carry more than ten nuclear devices so it is worth preparing Britain for the worst.

Politicians and mass media continue playing a war of words that could have disastrous consequences and Britain would be just one of the countries that will be lost in such madness.

Presumably SO15 and other branches of the British Security Services are taking stock of what will undoubtedly happen in the United Kingdom when there is such a war.

Most of the general public is totally oblivious to what is being done on their behalf very much like the inhabitants of Nagasaki and Hiroshima were oblivious to what was going to happen to their cities in 1945. For most people, the dimension of the tragedy is something they couldn't possible understand or believe to be possible. 

People, your lives will be terminated. You are going to die in one of the most horrendous manners ever conceived by Man. This is coming.

 

Lithuania and Polish Corridor Moment: Lithuania wants to be invaded

 

On September 1st, 1939, Germany invaded Poland. For several years, the issue had been the Polish Corridor created by the Versailles Treaty isolating Germany from a vast chunk of East Prussia including Danzig and Memel. 

Now, Lithuania might be about to make a tragic mistake by blocking access to Kaliningrad from the Russian mainland thus giving the Russian Federation a reason to take matters farther.

Cutting off rail links to Kaliningrad might be seen as a declaration of war, the ultimate provocation, that could signal the end of Lithuania as a country. Have Lithuanian leaders their heads in the right place? Provoking a powerful neighbour might not be the best action to undertake and especially when logistically any support is a world away if things go south and things might go south in a matter of days if not hours if the blockade is implemented and maintained.
