Berlin’s Ruling Class Would Rather Put Putin First Than Abandon Net Zero

Germany is once more a threat to European security.
by Daniel Johnson  Feb 18, 2025 in Energy, News and Opinion, Politics Reading Time: 4 mins read
 
The German problem is back with a vengeance. Only this time the problem is not Hitler’s monstrous war machine, but the Pied Piper of net zero, leading Europe on its primrose path. [emphasis, links added]

With the Continent seemingly suffering a nervous breakdown over Trump, Putin, and Ukraine, Eurocrats gathered in Paris looking to Berlin for guidance.


But where the German elite leads, is it wise to follow?

Next Sunday 60 million German voters are poised to kick out Olaf Scholz, the hapless, indecisive Social Democrat, and replace him with Friedrich Merz, a fiscally conservative Christian Democrat with more hair and, we must hope, a better grasp of Realpolitik.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Is Germany looking for a "benevolent" Hitler to tell them what to do and when to do it? :tongue2:
