Yeah, exactly. But it's the usual German/Dutch "I'm not gonna stick my neck out for those southern lazy bastards" mentality which reached its peak in 2011 and keeps on being repeated in a loop, despite southern Europe having adhered strictly to the plan which was set by their overlords back then, imposing crippling austerity measures which effectively harmed their own populations and economies for decades to come and triggered a brain dump with irreversible consequences (and has been recognized by none other than the IMF and the EC as has having been excessive). Why should Portugal, Spain or Italy borrow (German) money to pay for (German/French) equipment they will likely never use only to, in 10 years, find the German again at their doors, asking why they didn't keep their deficits in check?

You're assuming 90% of those are not bots.

Oh, here we go again. I knew this "visionary defense plan" would be paid with what is left of the welfare state in the EU. The pro-Trump pro-Kremlin fifth columnists which already have a foothold in southern European states couldn't have asked for better.

Love the concept of invasions meant to bring the other half "to the negotiation table".

You mean there is no alternative to killing civilians at gunpoint, including children, filming the whole thing and publishing it online? Hamas doesn't want a two-state solution, and this kind of reaction from Israel is music to their years. It will keep on fueling hate for years to come.

I thought this post was funny until I read the comments.
