We are in WW3.
Finally some leadership. Biden has been slow walking aid this entire war, to Russia's benefit.
Let's see how big on words he is once he's out of opposition. Either way his leadership comes at the cost of him being a 90s style neo libertarian with his own private plane. Other than that he is conservative through and through.
So (I) expect no big investments into health care, education, green technology or public transport but more in tax cuts for the wealthy and investments into "new and revolutionary technologies that will solve all our problems for sure bro" and individual transport infrastructure (which tbh would actually be needed since the German infrastructure is in a pretty bad state with a lot of highway bridges being at the end of their life cycle but on the other hand schools and healthcare are in dire need of investments too). And for all the problems we just blame migrants and strengthen right wing populist positions.
Soo yeah, not really happy with him, not really happy with anyone else atm.
ah, wasnt aware he was a conservative. Thats unfortunate. Lately it seems like all the conservatives are paid off by Putin-- this one seems to have not gotten his check.
Halt dein Maul, Merz!
Is there any hint of a reason why Putin would ever be scared of Taurus missiles?
from a glance, they look very equivalent to the british storm shadows Ukraine already gets.
Not that Germany shouldn't supply, it just seems that this ultimatum is a purely political idea about the upcoming german elections.
Also, what would even be the end of the war? By Putin logic complete and unconditional surrender by Ukraine would also be the end of the war.
Merz's threat is not "fuck off behind 1991 borders within 24 hours". Complete smoke and mirrors shitshow.
Merz ist a Joke and he will most certainly not pull through if the Trump Administration interferes. Just another US Puppet, which in Turn is a Russian puppet... so yeah, just a stunt.
Wow. The same "we'll easily end this war" bullshit that Trump is spewing. That didn't take long.
When this moron takes over (and he will), it's gonna get real bad.
"End the war or I'm arm the shit out of Ukraine" is different from "end the war please daddy I'll let you have half of Ukraine."
Sounds like this guy is a piece of shit though so who knows.
Wait... there's a candidate named Fred Merz?
Like William Frawley's character from I Love Lucy?
Friedrich, shortened to Fritz.
It’ll be interesting to see how much the Allies game kicks up in the next 2 months now that the Orange Potato and Elon Musk were elected President.
I hope it’s effective.
The new fragrance, Orange Potato Musk. Mmmmmm
Now I’m trying to figure the bottle and cologne ad for Orange Potato Musk.
That's nice but Ukraine does not have anything that can launch it...
F16? Mirages?
They'll figure it out.
No and no. There are talks to provide the Typhoon and the Gripen but nothing set yet. And there would still need to be several months of training.
Mirage coming in early 2025 normally.
Which is not a platform that the missile is compatible with currently.
Okay, the Ukrainians did make adaptors for the SCALP/SS though so who knows right?
Most likely launcher would be Gripen. So this kinda depends on Sweden more than on Germany. Though the signals i saw coming from Sweden are that they would be willing to give Ukraine what they need, including fighter jets, provided that NATO takes up the slack in air defence in Sweden.
Don't listen to "Cunt-hunter-Freddy", he says everything to get Power.y favorite story is when he lost his laptop and a homeless person finds it. He thanked him for bringing it back with an issue of his new book. He's pure disgust.
Just for the record, and context: That wasn't misogyny, it's not calling any woman anything (though using a word vulgarly referring to female genitalia), it's the established insult for Merz. Really doesn't translate well, not so much word-wise but connotation and implication-wise. Cf. the American vs. English vs. Australian usage of the word, doesn't translate at all and that's within the same language.
It's an imputed high-school nickname calling him, in my reading, an immature braggart. You know, 12yold brags about their extensive sexual experience, gets called "pussy hunter" in return to make fun of him. There's also the additional linguistic quibble that the word, to the amusement of the rest of the republic, simply means "face" in Bavarian and can be used there more or less in the sense of "gob", as in "shut your gob". He indeed has a big one.
