German States Ask Congress Not to Remove U.S. Troops
   
Jack Beyrer - JULY 20, 2020 6:15 PM

The leaders of four German states wrote to Congress asking for a halt to Washington's troop withdrawal plan from the country, Reuters reported Sunday.

The premiers of the four states—all of which have U.S. bases—addressed their letters to 13 members of Congress, including Sens. Mitt Romney (R., Utah) and Jim Inhofe (R., Okla.). Inhofe chairs the Armed Services Committee, while Romney is a leading member of the Foreign Relations Committee.

"We therefore ask you to support us as we strive not to sever the bond of friendship but to strengthen it, and to secure the U.S. presence in Germany and Europe in the future," the ministers of Bavaria, Baden-Wuerttemberg, Rhineland-Palatinate, and Hesse wrote.

The German officials wrote that the troops "form the backbone of the U.S. presence in Europe and NATO's ability to act."

Loosely translated....   We don't give a sh__ about your military, but cannot do without the economic $'s.

I still hope we transfer to Poland.  Somewhere where we are liked and wanted.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

I say they stay at COST + whatever additional percent we wish to profit.  War reparations could be applied too for the cost of WWII, which they never coughed up a dime.

Screw Germany and their utter failure to cooperate on NATO and fund their proper share.  Literally, screw them.  And yes move to Poland or close the damn bases period.  We are spending like crazy, it has to end!!!
