This is where the German voters are really being stupid. The best way to avoid Germany fighting is too encourage the US to do it. Instead of antagonizing the US, they'd be smarter to stop opposing us and let the US take on the onus of dealing with the Chicoms, NK and the Islamofascists. In other words, true neutrality so they can sell to both sides.
Well, they're making their own socialist bed. I'm part German descent, and the Germans are all stubborn hardheads except me.
The winner of the election will just be a higher or lower grade socialist than the other.
