Germany explores the revival of compulsory military service

Here we go again, dfwgator repeating his pseudo-funny quotes for the umpteenth time.

Still, what my hapless country is now is maybe not nice to look at, maybe, but she still has my heart and my love, to paraphrase the Egyptian national anthem 😀

What some Freepers might not understand, is that I wouldn’t abandon my mother just because she is ugly - if they were bright enough to understand that metaphor 🤣

Just as they themselves would, hopefully, still love America and not turn their backs on her, just because she is beset by the Biden administration and the schemers of the Deep State, working to destroy her every step of the way.

Imagine a place and time:

—Where the concept of race identity is considered bad.

—Where religion is relegated to some ritual on Sundays but it plays zero role in policy making, the laws of the land.

—Where nationalism is considered akin to racism and even the president considers himself a “citizen of the world.” (Obama).

Now imagine in this same place and time, the true decision makers that define policies are oligarchs that are 100% behind a global agenda and they care little about an American or German worker or even their military service members. Ein Chinese kann genau so gut am Fließband arbeiten wie ein Deutscher.

In fact, these oligarchs and politicians are the ones that created a framework of rules so they can move their manufacturing to China and Mexico (for the US), Turkey and Eastern Europe for Germany, created an H1B visa in the US so they can bring in cheap labor into the country (tied to a job - so that Visa makes the person a de facto slave to a corporation.), make sure the federal government ignores existing immigration laws because they extensively use illegals. These are the same folks which attend Davos, Bilderberg... where the heads of state and corporations converge to make behind closed door deals.

***The problem is that while fools like you and I believe in God and country, the folks in power do not.***

Do you really think someone like Soros, Gates, a Kerry, a Gerhard Schröder or Joschka Fischer has any sort of loyalty to their country?

Do you really think that BMW or GM have any sort of real loyalty to their country? Under Obama defense contractors like Boeing and Lockheed were pushing to be able to make deals with Iran (at the same time Iran was killing Americans in a proxy war in Iraq)... That's real, you had Iranian Quds forces in Iraq advising and equipping some of the Iraqi insurgents and militias that were fighting us, and at the same time you had Boeing and Lockheed wringing their hands hoping to make huge deals with Iran regards aircraft sales and parts: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jul/09/us-aircraft-sales-iran-blocked-jeopardising-25bn-boeing-deal (it got blocked, but they tried!)

***We live in an era where the economic elite and even many political leaders, (((though elected by the people and supposedly representing them))), are supranational. Loyalties like you and I have are actually seen as archaic and getting in the way of free trade, movement of people, resources, capital machinery, money, and IP.***

Dear Red6,

I am unspeakably grateful for your words :-)

You have always been one of the most knowledgeable, as well as one of the most rational, people on this forum anyway - but you really have hit it out of the ballpark with your last contribution!

You really did, and your words also brightened a day which had been a bad day for me. Thank you, thank you so much! :-) :-) :-)

And what you described so thoroughly, is the malaise which has not only penetrated America and Germany, but all the countries of the former “Western bloc”, and it is making headways into other countries, i.e. many of the former Eastern bloc countries (though there is resistance in Poland, Hungary etc.). Even in the so-called Third world, its influence is palpable.

And, many times, I had been trying to point this out to other Freepers as well, but in many cases, it has been in vain.

But now, even Dfwgator and company might have second thoughts about our common “oligarchs”, who operate on an international level :-)

It seems to me that these oligarchs even do their best to set their respective peoples on each other, just to keep them divided. Divide and rule - this concept dates from the time of the Romans, but, sadly, it still works today (the controversy about the war in Iraq in 2002, for instance, might have been such a case).

Thx.

But going back to two specific examples I mentioned. You have to consider how unbelievable these scenarios really are:

(1) You have the biggest US defense contractor, the biggest in terms of money in this planet, that became rich off US tax money, who sells arms to the US and its allies, wringing their hands to make deals with Iran and even pushing our government to allow them. In the meantime, the same people they want to make these deals with are arming and advising insurgents and Iraqi militias in fighting us and are directly responsible for hundreds of US soldiers deaths with IED enhancements (IR barriers), mortar rounds, GPS receivers, NVGs, etc. they provided to these folks.

And this isn’t even a scandal nor headline news worthy story today!

Look at Schroeder: That guy made sure to sell the Germans out to the Russians (Gazprom), while he was still the chancellor, personally getting involved in the deal. And as soon as he retired he heads to Russia to take a position for the same firm he ensured got the gas deal. Do you really think Schroeder was acting in the best interest of Germany? Years ago, someone like that, if caught, would have literally been hung or put before a firing squad.

(((Nations))) are still the best way around which to organize society, but business as well as the political class subordinate to these economic interests, often operate from a secular globalist perspective.

100% true.

Both occurrences which you mention are utterly scandalous, and you are right to point out that the media didn‘t take much umbrage at them. I just remember that Schröder was criticized mildly by some media outlets and a few politicians of other parties than the SPD.

Yes, and I agree with you: Schröder was a criminal, and he headed the worst administration since 1945, dumping German citizenship to invaders, alienating Germany‘s most important ally, crawling before the EUSSR overlords, blowing away the country‘s money on the deadbeats in there, etc.

And about the US defense contractor, I was reminded of John Fogerty‘s song „Violence is golden“, where an arms dealer, the narrator, sings „I‘m selling bot sides of the fence, that is the name of the game. I don‘t care about your silly little struggle - money‘s colored all the same“

And a last word on Schröder: Thus, the Gazprom affair was just the „cream on the cake“ of horror with him. He was an utterly simple mind, but very unethical, while pretending to be fine and upstanding. Very much like most of his party members.
