Adolf didn’t start with masses of troops either. He had to build up forces too.

Bottom line is that today's Germans, like the Japanese, are harmless. Russians, on the other hand, think the wrong side won the Cold War.

Nobody is harmless. Germany is the country in third place in terms of worldwide military deployments; not exactly harmless. Japan has been making moves to revoke Article 9 for quite some time now, and Red China’s moves against the Senkaku islands are but one of many excuses.

EU leaders are currently in the process of accelerating military buildup in response to Putin. They’ll rally around the one EU country with the most military experience.

What did you expect Russians to do after "losing the Cold War"? Wither and die? Become a welfare state to Europe?
