Caroline Glick: Germany’s Love Affair with Iran About More than Greed
2019-03-10
With one hand Germany generously supports Israel’s military with very generously priced submarines for her navy and such. With the other hand, this:
[Breitbart] What is one to make of Germany’s love affair with Iran?

In a recent conversation with senior Trump administration officials, Breitbart News was told that the force behind the European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...

#13   just lacking in principles

No. Having the wrong principles. The Krauts are envious of Iran being able to complete what Germany couldn't.

#12  I mean, just lacking in principles and doing whatever appears to be expedient.

#11  Didn't the Germans have democracy imposed on them after WWI and WWII? Before that weren't they an autocratic monarchy? And before they were united, a bunch of smaller autocratic monarchies? Maybe they still don't get it and see the world so much differently than we do that we just can't relate.

#9  I think that the so called special relationship with the UK is winding to a close.

Perhaps because of Brit Intel spying on Trump?

#7  I realize, TW, that this has been going on for years. At least the President is recognizing it and starting to do something. Overton window and all that. I think that the so called special relationship with the UK is winding to a close.

#5  The Germans hate us so much it doesn't matter who they get in bed with to oppose us. They were on the side of the Communist Vietnamese, for fuck's sake.

Cut them loose and let them pay for their own fucking military.

#4  Let it be known we're putting in ABM systems in Hungary, Poland, but they won't be used if the Iranian ICBM are headed to Germany or France.

#2  And the same goes for the Dems in the house. They have similar behaviors

#1  This article is very disurbing. Our allies—-Germany, France, and Great Britain. Our so called allies are cavorting with a bunch of fookin’ terrorist whoores who are the so called leaders of Iran. There are serious consequences of the big three so called allies actively subverting US policy. It is the responsibility of the President to deal with this. Do these three countries want to remain allies or not?
