Germany is now running deficits to support a war that's already been decided. Ukraine is a corrupt country where many weapons given to it find their way onto the international black market. The standard of living in Germany is getting worse. Using deficit spending on a non-productive good like weapons to a foreign country that is corrupt will accelerate Germany's decline.

So you think its better to dont support our partners, and let autocrats take what they want, bc we have bad money management?

The standard of living is declining everywhere on the world. Germany is still havimg it really good. We are just nagging, but we have really much. in my opinion we have to help other countries which have it bad.

If you're going to stop Russia from invading Ukraine why aren't you putting German troops in Ukraine? You're not helping your partner your killing Ukranians to weaken America's enemy. Tell me what the difference between Israel and Russia is and what they're doing to their smaller neighbours is. And then tell me why Germany condemns one atrocity but supports the other. It's not about supporting a partner and I think you're being naive or disingeneous if you think so.

We dont send troops, because it would be an intervemtion of foreign forces, in this situation its NATO forces. I think the rest needs no explanation.

Germany condemns Israels human rights violation PUBLICLY from ministers to chancellors nobody says its good.

And we send support to palestine too so I dont know what you are talking.

Germany doesnt give Israel tanks and weapons. Please enlighten my naiveness and tell me how germany supports one and not the other...
