Al Carns has warned of a "shadow of war" at Europe's door, as hostile intelligence activity against the UK has jumped by more than 50% over the past year.
Germany really has only two options left: keep being dependent on the US for energy, or invade Russia and steal their resources.
The green energy transition plan is being killed by China’s much superior renewable tech, and if Europe opens up to China, their domestic economy is going to be even deader than dead. This makes them even more reliant on the US consumer market.
So, they are militarizing to conquer Russia to gain independence from the US, since the economic cooperation route has been denied (the US bombing Nord Stream). The exact same shit that happened 90 years ago.
Nothing obnoxious about it. Please tell me how Germany’s rebuilding of its military capability can stop itself from being a US vassal?
The US is not militarily invading Germany anytime soon, nor is Germany capable of reaching the US across the Atlantic anytime soon. The US exerts its influence over Germany by manipulating its ability to access energy, resources and global market through restricting trade and sanctions with other countries.
For example, the Ukraine war killed Nord Stream. Trump’s tariffs forced China to dump cheap EVs and solar panels on to the EU, which is killing the European green tech industries.
Germany’s militarization is driven by its neoliberal ideology (that its economy has to be driven by a trade surplus export strategy). And because Germany needs to run a trade surplus under such constraints, it will have no choice but to steal resources from the other countries, hence all the war rhetoric against Russia.
This was exactly what led to the rise of Nazi Germany back in the 1930s. The US simply demanded its war debt repayment from the Allied powers, which far exceeded their capacity to repay at the time, so they turned to the defeated Germany to squeeze even more out of them to service their debt. In response, Germany militarized and invaded Europe and Russia. The entire predicament was dictated by global capital. The same happens today.
they’re a pretty bad analyst who has rooked a bunch of hexbears by neoliberal-posting on economic shit that nobody is well versed in so it looks Important and Serious, but this reply to you is a perfect encapsulation of their rhetoric
They are not militarizing to fight the US lol.

Please read my comment before giving an obnoxious response. I am under no illusions about this.

She doesn’t mean fight literally but rather in terms of sovereign ability to make their own decisions.
Russia didn’t have nukes 90 years ago
