    Off-topic. Better create your own thread. This is not the right place.

    The EU commission plans a state funeral for Helmut Kohl. It would be the first state funeral on european level in history. A state ceremony in Straßburg, in the EU parliament and then his coffin will transported by ship to the Speyrer Dom (a over 950 years old cathedral), his favorite church.

    I hope that I will manage to be a the riverside to salute him on his final walk.

    Berlin was beautiful in 1945.

    One thing is not up for debate. The East German's, your allies were shooting people for trying to escape the hell hole they created. What does that say about them and their philosophy?

    Afraid of what, exactly? Putin has already lost Ukraine. The Russian westward push is already over. They won't get anymore of the Ukraine, they won't get the Baltics, they won't push into Romania or Poland.

    The Germans have nothing to fear from the Russians. The Germans should be afraid of the Mediterranean Europeans and Macron. The Russian threat has already receded.

    AHEM.



    And as generally, after checking thread - people, we all have topics that are hard to discuss for us, all get triggered from time to time. But let's not act like barbarians - or kindergarden age children - and not spend hours and hours writing insults to each other. All countries have unpleasant flaws, and all countries are never the less spectacular - and we all are loving our own ones. Let's settle on that, all right?

    It was a real shame and a great stupidity to have destroyed the most cultured, disciplined and advanced Nation on earth!
    What good has come out of it?
    I have tried to find some justification for this total destruction, and it seems to me, that the rare good and upright always gets destroyed again by the darker forces. That could perhaps be the law of the universe.

    As I can see today, a group of elites are working hard at equalizing the masses into one pot of garden-variety-soup, with no particular nation getting ahead in terms of spiritual, cultural and economic development. Nor is a specific cultural group/nation allowed to preserve its pureness of race. Except for Israel, which strives to keep its Jewish genes preserved, mimicking the National-Socialism's aim.

    Consoling myself that everything is done with God's permission, I feel that our present state of affairs is necessary to bring less developed nations
    into the present time, so they, too, have a chance to learn and elevate themselves to the next higher level.

    Germany could have shown the rest of the world how to build a functioning nation without enslaving the lower classes. Germany was ahead in many disciplines, from health to science to economy to technology and so on. It was running ahead and therefore had to be brought down!

    The United States of America took the torch away from Germany and has tried hard to maintain its power. Trump is imitating Hitler and wants to revive the greatness of the US. Contrary to Hitler, Trump "schmuses" with the Zionists, perhaps hoping to outsmart them that way.

    Will we one day see New York looking like Berlin in 1945? It is in the forecast!
    Who could be that dark force?

    You say this because you do not understand that the global economy is on the threshold of a strong recession. Trump want to use the last resort - fiscal stimulation. All other countries will follow the example of Usa. This will lead to an incredible increase in the cost of energy and resources. Prices for oil and gas will fly into space. It will provoke a massive crisis in the global economy. In 2008, world trade fell by 50%. After that, the countries began to support economics at the expense of budget expenditures. Now, countries have large debts and budget deficits. After fiscal stimulation, debts will double. The US wants to increase the state debt by 15 trillion in 10 years. Do you heard about the Weimar Republic? Something similar will happen this time too. When it happens, then Russia will come to take all Russian-speaking countries for the Russian world. Poland will suffer because it has deployed US hypersonic nuclear missiles on its territory. Russia will destroy these missiles. Germany will also suffer because Usa has military bases there. If you agree Russia and Usa to fight on your territory, then this is your choice. Your cities will turn into ruins. Just do not whine afterwards.

    Oh my God, if the people in Crimea aren't Russian? Then why are they pretending to be? Maybe they have an identity problem?

    Bullshit. Germany runs on a massive budget surplus, makes no new debt since years and paid back existing debt.

    Your country is a weak 3rd world country.

    back on topic, R.I.P. to the man, but when he came to East Berlin, they hurled eggs & tomatoes at him, face it. East Germany did not want to be wiped out as a state.

    as for what & who reunited Germany, these were those that had separated it in two a few decades before; namely the USSR & USA, while Britain was strongly against the reunification. Thatcher begged Gorbatchov to not let Germany reunite. Reagan offered Gorbie world market opportunities, and the both soon were gone as politicians. Soviets had been had; no world market opportunities and no more Eastern Europe under their control to oppose Western expansion & robbery. Yugoslavia first fell victim of this. Germany was reunited only so the rest of East Europe was disintegrated.

    what is alarming, being the bigotry, propaganda & illusions that German authorities spread among Germans, which makes them turn into an ignorant, aggressive & uneducated mob; here's a glaring example of how totalitarian & mendacious has Germany become today -
