The mood in Germany is explosive.

[hasegawa]

Scholz's decision to deliver tanks to the hated Kiev regime tears Germany apart. There are first calls to leave Germany because some people fear mobilization, and forums are discussing where to go and where not to. The so-called journalists are unbearable. There is a vibe here that can be compared to 1914. They sleepwalk to war. In the meantime, the mood in Russia is also changing.
Now with German tanks on "sacred Russian soil" the nationalists in Russia are going nuts. It doesn't matter who's in it. The anger against these German traitors is great. From what I've heard, there are some first voices among the populace who want to get rid of the Germans this time, for good. It should be remembered that, apart from the reserves, about 80,000 volunteers in Russia rushed to the flags and are now serving in Ukraine, by the way, this does not mean Wagner or the Chechens.
Europe sleepwalks to war. All that's missing is a provocation like Gleiwitz and the store flies in our face. My family provided soldiers for every war Germany was involved in from 1704 until 1945. I was also preparing to leave Germany. I don't want anything to do with that. I'll sell everything in Germany and leave. Next year I'll be too old to be drafted as a reservist. But I don't think the war will wait that long.

Interesting insights...

the hated Kiev regime

Is it just the present government that is hated? Or Ukraine itself? And by whom?

[hasegawa]

The activities of the current Kiev government, which came to power in a coup on February 20-22, 2014 with US and EU help and which, according to the OSCE, has since murdered 13,000+ of its citizens, wounded 200,000+ and 2.5 Has made millions homeless is the only way I can describe it. The people killed in Donbass by the Ukrainian army and known Nazi groups (Azov is just one of 60 of their kind) are ethnic Russians or Russian-speaking people, but Ukrainian taxpayers who actually wanted to be Ukrainians, unlike the Crimean people. It would also have been possible. In Germany, we have status for the Danish and Sorb minorities. That would also have worked in Ukraine for the Russians, Belarusians, Jews, Hungarians and Romanians in Ukraine. The Minsk Agreements 1 and 2 and UN Resolution 2202 also provided for this. But it was just a ploy to reassure the Russians, building the Ukraine army in such a way that it could overrun and kill the people of the Donbass, and then make itself available to NATO as a proxy in the fight against Russia. In the meantime, Ms. Merkel, then Chancellor of Germany, and Mr. Holande, then French President, have openly admitted this. We also heard it from Mr. Poroshenko, the "president" elected after the coup, and Mr. Arestovich, a close adviser to Zelensky and the head of the Presidential Chancellery. He is now on the death list of the Ukrainians Myrotworets, along with around 97,000 other people I was in Ukraine openly criticizing the corruption and some articles I wrote afterward about Ukraine, by the way, I am also on the list, like former Chancellor Schröder, some members of the German Bundestag like Mr. Ströbele and many journalists.The case Darja Dugina killed in Russia shows it is no joke. A few hundred people on this list are dead, most of them from heart failure, accidents, etc. There are few cases where these people blew up the car like Darya did. The perpetrators then disappeared via Estonia to Austria. There they lose track and in Austria no one has shown any interest in granting the Russians' extradition request. I am meanwhile not on good terms with the Kiev regime because of the Ukrainian refugees and their behavior in Germany and the fact that one of these people could be my killer.

Finally, a note. Forget your system media. There are sources that can be taken seriously.
The analyst Brian Berletic (also listed on Myrotworez) gives a good account of what's going on in Ukraine. He uses only US and NATO sources and is definitely not a Putinist.

Thanks for the reply, always interesting to know about other points of view.
Reinforces the notion that wars really do represent the total abandonment of reason.
I'll use those links on a disposable computer somewhere

We'll close the discussion there, this is a flightsim forum after all, not a political arena!
