@jj
I am genuinely curious what kind of education you received growing up because I have a feeling it was pretty messed up/grossly inadequate on certain, shall we say, "sensitive" subjects. British bad. Americans bad. Russians bad. Everything in Germany before 1945 bad. Mass censorship of anything other than a post-colonial revisionist version of history, which attempts to paint kleptocratic sociopaths in developing countries as heroes who are struggling against unjust power structures. Lol x20. But then again the German education system has never really recovered since its best days before the world wars. It just sort of limps along anymore with one lung. I deeply respect your exemplary human rights record after WW2 but you need to go outside more and actually learn about other cultures instead of being so sheltered.
The US is widely attributed to providing invaluable help to Israel in the Yom Kippur war, and this is widely acknowledged in Israel, and Israel in turn was a very solid partner in the 20th century.
Everybody is entitled to believe whatever fantasy they want to believe, just dont expect your old guard party to gain much traction because it is easier than ever before to call people out on bad information, and there is an overabundance of bad information floating around in Germany (or what is left of Germany) over all sorts of things.

Oh, and whether you care to admit it or not, the USA's relationships in the Middle East are better now than at any point in its history, so the "USA is a pariah" statement is just more nonsense from a country with widespread literacy issues, especially after COVID. There is simply no comparison between the days when OPEC was embargoing the USA and today. It is overwhelmingly better and there are many very solid partnerships that are mutually beneficial for the citizens of each country.
You need to read something that isn't propaganda, please and thank you. Even the BBC is doing way better than you, and they arent exactly models in good journalism compared to the NYT or WSJ.

If a German politician did that they would probably get impeached lol.
Nobody in your country is allowed to do anything.

The squirrel probably just went, I'm just going to follow my presiudent's example, troll everyone, spout blatant BS, as if it was pure gold, be rude and offensive and see whether I get away with it as well.
It's for a reason that post-truth era and us living in it became a real thing in 2016.

*has a debate about world politics*
*gets accused of lacking subtlety*
*gets accused of being... rude*
The third accusation will be that I forgot to use a coaster for my teacup. By that point I will have achieved supervillain status.

In the interest of being less rude, I would like to take a moment of silence. The American president made a mean gesture with his finger that also lacked subtlety.
I am deeply traumatized by this and will remain traumatized for the remainder of my life.

The education system in Germany is completely broken. And unlike the USA which had to build an educational infrastructure from the ground up, it actually started in a really good and privileged place.
Nothing but downhill though. Thoughts that disagree with the state are heavily censored. You can even get punished in Germany for insulting somebody's honor. I have no idea what that means. Children are losing their ability to read and do math or science. They can't hire people even though there aren't even any children around. The economy is broken. Over half the country thinks that Russia is going to invade them. Fanaticism at its best. Big bad Russia.
If you ask the average German youth about their own country's history, they will tell you about how terrible everything was in every century. The level of brainwashing and propaganda is getting nearly as bad as it was in the 1930s.
This is what happens when somebody doesn't go outside and lives inside of a bubble. Your brain loses its ability to think critically. You can't expect people to have intricate thoughts if they are worried about every word that comes out of their mouth. The brain reverts into a more primitive and animalistic state. Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
I love Germany and I love the people, but it is going into a really bad direction. There is way too much paranoia there, particularly with Russia , but also with the USA. It needs to fix its dying education system, and that is what will also help its dying economy.

Obviouely the same seems to happen when you don't worry at all which words come out of your mouth (or keyboard), president or squirrel.

I love Germany, etc are from Trump's word.. Thus you don't know what can you believe..
Other what? In logic, if every countries have giant economics.. The US can't be in first place.. You know PC games.. But the US and worse China are the top in the world.. The US should say to thanks for Europe.. In history, Europe feared Russia attacks Europe, so European people migrated to the US, and to build for Russia.. The US kept a word.. Ok so many inventors in the US.. also many people.. When 1.000.000 people can't get a trillion dollar.. Thus worse China.. Ok 1.000.000 people pay taxes, etc Think about club has members i.e. income, and then club pays electrical bill, etc and club sells coffee, etc.. The same thing! Only I talked shortly.. Because you've a brain.. Really, you shall/should.. Ok then what was the matter? I forgot.. But the US is backed on their politics.. Venezuela for oil, Greenland for rarely element and gold.. We remember other war.. If you think about Vietnam, etc Another politics matter, they don't want to communist, Communist bloc.. Ok I'm on garden now, when thoughts can't kept in one way, it came many things in a minute..
