Do you know that Merkel and Germany are aligned with Russia?

No I do not, but the EU is a dead end for Germany, and no nation has more upside in this situation than Germany does.

Germany has nothing at risk in Ukraine, and has everything to gain, beginning with Königsberg.

I would not be at all surprised if Jan Sobieski's successors in glory won't be offered Lwow, Grodno, Brest and maybe even Wilno in exchange for the rest of East Prussia.

Big, big forces are in play here - Germany can either defend the right of Greeks to retire at age 49 and pay Portuguese pensions forever, or play ball with Putin.

It's a tough call for them.

Interesting that you make this point. Arnold Fructenbaum, one of the world’s leading Messianic Jewish Bible Scholars, believes that Ezekiel 38-39 describes a coalition of Russia, Turkey, Iran, AND Germany coming against Israel (presumably after a middle east war that ends very badly for the Muslim nations around Israel (e.g. Psalms 83). I am starting to wonder if you are correct.?.?

It really unrealistic to think that the Russians will ever give back Konigsburg to Germany for any reason.
