^ True.
The whole article hits the nail on top. What angers me, as somebody living in Germany amongst Germans, is the endless avalanche of words, words, words, and more words. The Germans and their endless stream of announcements. Their perfect plans. Their superior intentions. Words, words, words. If the US would call it a day and quit over Europe, Germany, I really would an could not think bad of it.

The Deutsche Welle writes:
According to an analysis by the Bundeswehr think tank GIDS, Germany is hardly equipped against attacks with combat drones. This is a danger for the military, but also for the population in the event of terrorist attacks. For their analysis, the experts from the German Armed Forces think tank GIDS examined the international market and the course of the fighting over Nagorno-Karabakh, where Azerbaijan defeated Armenia with drones last year. "To put it very drastically: If the Bundeswehr had to fight against Azerbaijan in this specific conflict, it would hardly have had a chance," states Lieutenant Colonel Michael Karl, GIDS expert on modern warfare and new technologies. "With weapon systems that were used such as combat drones and kamikaze drones, we would not have been able to defend ourselves adequately. The lack of army anti-aircraft defense alone would have been our undoing." The GIDS (German Institute for Defense and Strategic Studies) is a cooperation between the leadership academy of the Bundeswehr and the Helmut Schmidt University / University of the Bundeswehr in Hamburg. The institute examines security policy problems and advises politics and the military leadership. In order to survive in a modern conflict, the Bundeswehr needs technologies that Germany basically has, but that are not used in the military. So far, the Bundeswehr has only used the unmanned missiles for reconnaissance and observation. Allies and possible opponents have armed drones with which areas can be observed and missiles can also be fired at targets via control commands. According to Lieutenant Colonel Karl, kamikaze drones or so-called disposable drones are themselves weapons, i.e. equipped with explosives. "Unlike a rocket, in which you enter target coordinates, these types of drones pursue their target," explains Karl. According to him, a swarm of such drones can be programmed to attack a formation of battle tanks. Drones could also learn about artificial intelligence and ultimately find their target without human control. The expert also sees the danger in the possibilities this opens up for terrorism, since the technology is now widely available. A commercially available drone can be restructured and programmed into a combat drone. "It's not just about protecting our soldiers from drones, but also about protecting the civilian population." It is clear that the heated debate between the Union and the SPD about arming the Bundeswehr with drones has been overtaken by reality. The armament alone might no longer be enough. The Greens no longer categorically rule out the use of armed drones. With a lead of only four votes, a majority voted at the online party congress to examine the conditions for this.

After today's meeting with Biden and Putin.I think Your best course for the future of your country. Is take the money and run. Anyway it is clear the government of the USA is in shambles and we are heading towards civil war. So lets play a song for Joe and Jill. cause right now i think it's a bunch of 80 year old hippies from the 60's. That are still hell bent on getting rich keeping their families' in power and politics. Yes Jill Biden did wear her Love jacket to the G7. What was that all about? Its not climate change that is a threat to this Globe we live on.... It's the Americans. The real Dog Face Pony Soldiers.

Probably not but you haven't proved to anyone whatever it is about their theories that is such a problem it is worth gutting everyones rights to free speech either. Just like those new age woke McCarthyites over here you're very general with your accusations, rarely mentioning specifics, but rather using ill defined scary terms like "unhinged theories", even tossing a "whatever" in there to widen the generality net even more.

Hmmm. I didn't realize that merely voting for Donald Trump automatically made one a member of one (or more) of your evil right wing organizations. Thanks for enlightening me. Is there an initiation or something because, I tell you, I got nothing from them yet. Still waiting for my barrel of Iraqi oil too.

I stand to my statement that Qanon and Pizzagate believers are nuts.

Your freedom of dying of covid because it is all a conspiracy or you do not believe in it, is your personal decision and fate, but if you infect others by doing so there may be a problem for others, with your way of thinking and acting. If you talk about "unproven, barely-tested, rushed into production drugs" and so on, you can surely post an example? Not even the Sputnik vaccine was "untested" Or do you mean hydroxychloroquine, or Trump saying that covid 19 is harmless and will be gone in summer 2020? Imho people with the power to decide should maintain a basic knowledge or listen to their advisors, not rejecting science, perpetrating shortsighted populistic bs and killing thousands in the process.

All those vaccines have been tested, thorougly and statistically significant. Even the Sputnik one. Long term effects are not yet known, as have never been when a new vaccine being introduced. Long term effects are being researched and it seems there will not be much to care about. Seems you want to talk bad of anything that takes the virus serious. Quote:
You will never get a hundred percent effectivity and no side effects or complications with vaccine, it is almost always around 90 percent effectivits; as you said "life is ugly". Still a lot better that downplaying it and telling people it's the flu. We have had that. re hydroxycloroquine this is maybe a fine medicament, maybe even help a bit to ease the Corona effects if you are infected. Taking it before like T. advertised has as much effect as Aspirine. Which is also a good medicament, just not helping against covid, but T. only has interests in hydroxycloroquine Quote:

It began with that i said false intel like denial of certain facts can be damaging if believed by the voting majority, and while this was meant for Germany the parade example of the last five years has been the US.

If you look at U.S. statistics for 2020 and did the math you would see his 99% is a pretty damn good estimate. Speaking of anti-vaxxers hows Germany's vaccine rollout coming along? Delta varient on the way you know and you all havent even come close to getting enough vaccine to take care of your own yet.

By others do you mean vaccinated people? Because if so then what is the point of getting vaccinations if they do not work to protect one from infection? Quote:

Fine, last word to me then. The mods can do what they want but i'm fine with discussing it right here just like you and your pal Skybird like to crap up our political thread all the time. Just remember that in actuality 99% of the covid cases ARE harmless. Most people do not even realize that they had it and in others, like myself, it was the equivalent to a case of the flu.

No, he said that Trumps estimate was pretty accurate. Moving your goal posts like that doesn't bolster your argument.

No, I didnt say it was fine. Though by your own governnents lack of action, it might be something they're thinking. I said the 99% estimate was pretty damn close to being correct. Quote:
