Meanwhile Americans gleefully run around in BMW’s Volkswagens, and Mercedes, while Germany tells the rest of Europe what to do and we pay the bills. German soldiers don’t fight, they are only “peacekeepers”.
“German soldiers don’t fight, they are only “peacekeepers”.”
Good point. Since WW2 their constitution prohibits the German military from fighting offensive wars outside Germany. WW2 is 70 years ago. They use the constitution to avoid spilling their blood as they would much prefer Americans and Brits at the tip of the spear doing the heavy lifting while they serve as doughnut dollies in the rear.I personally think Trump should press NATO for a requirement that any nation that is legally prohibited from fighting offensive wars will no longer be permitted membership in NATO.
