We're ready for a fight.

- bigyabai 2y ago> An actual fight showed up at their doorstep and they were too addicted to their fossil fuels As an American that doesn't sound too unfamiliar to me either. Remember "weapons of mass destruction" in Iraq?
- renewiltord 2y agoProblem solved. We now produce more oil than anyone else. Germany isn’t going to get there. They can’t make nuclear at the national level and they can’t do wind at the state level. Leaves solar in a country with less insolation than New England.
- wordofx 2y agoSpreading Russian conspiracy theories now?
- oezi 2y agoGermany/Europe are just the same kind of capitalist societies as anywhere else. If somebody is offering to sell you stuff for cheaper than another you most likely will buy unless other aspects override the advantage. Germany enjoyed at least 10 years of cheap Gas. Politicians believed it would help Russia become integrated and dependent on the money flowing. Putin was more crazy than we thought. Which makes it so weird to watch Trump being so subservient to Putin.
- renewiltord 2y agoNothing wrong with buying the gas for cheaper. But when the guy literally invades, and they sat there with their thumbs up their bums, I think it isn’t that convincing that they’re “ready to fight”. And yes, Trump is ruining America without a doubt.
- jahewson 2y agoNah Putin is exactly the guy we’ve been saying he was for literally decades. Wishful thinking from Merkel is not an excuse.
- voidfunc 2y agoThat's cute.
- arandomusername 2y agoNo we're not. Our military and our economy is a shadow of US. We could be ready to fight if we got rid of dumb politicians and endless bureaucracy, but in current state without US we are nothing.
