    My ancestors are from east Germany (Bavaria), came here in the 1800s, and sorry, east germany/austria sucked up the socialist crap from the nazi's.

    Do you not agree that nazi's had a home in bavaria?

    Around 1990 I lived in the UK and visited East and West Germany very often. Both states were pretty much different. When I traveled from West to East Germany, I felt like I had traveled 50 years back in time.

    I think Germany's reunion was a mistake. It caused many problems. Some of them were never solved. It would have been better to have two separate states.

    There are plenty who say east Germany won the cold war.

    I still have some Desert Storm Steiner Binoculars (US military issue) marked west germany.

    As well as several pair of east german bino's.

    The British aid early on kept the Soviets in the war over that first winter outside Moscow, then US aid dominated after that. The Soviets were pretty much wiped out an would have to sue for terms if it weren't for the Brits, regardless of Hitler's errors re Stalingrad and the southern offensives. The Soviet winter offensives around Moscow were weak and without the 120 or so armor units sent by the Brits they wouldn't have been effective. Same for the Kursk Pocket, crammed with Allied armor and other supplies allowing the Soviets to launch an offensive from there.

    They could have have lost for other reasons, namely Hitler being insane, for one, but left to just Soviets vs Germans the Soviets lost.

    I disagree. The Soviets were up arming (partially with Nazi training) long before they went to war.

    The soviets would have beaten the Nazi's, and the Japanese-it just took them longer to mobilize.

    Well, Bush deserves credit for rescuing the situation Reagan turned it into, certainly As for 'bloodshed' that was being spilt elsewhere and over 4 decades, so it wasn't 'bloodless'.

    You should take a look at what was left of the Soviet military after the German invasions wiped it out. What they had before Barbarossa was gone in months.

    Some say that the citizens of the GDR put pressure on the government, which led to the fall of the Berlin Wall. It certainly was not that alone. The GDR was also economically bankrupt. 40 years of socialism is ruining every country.

    Yes-it was a setback-and the Germans almost won. Some blame the russian winter-but they wouldn't have been there had Hitler opened a second front.

    The US delivered tanks and spam. Maybe we should have let them fight it out and defeated the victor.

    But thats not how the US works.

    I know socialism is a loser.

    Way too many haven't learned that even today.

    They are slow learners.

    reunion was inevitable. The people demanded it. The wall broke apart. The critical mass was reached and the only way possible was what Kohl did, to control the events to a peaceful outcome.

    nations work like nuclear reactors. Once you lose control you can not do anything. Releasing pressure doesnt help, the reactor will heat up more and more. The regime lost its ability to create fear. The most feared man of eastern Germany...Erich Mielke was standing infront parliament, stuttering and the people laughed him out.

    That you believe that you could have turned back the water into the bottle doesnt speak for your wisdom

    Says someone from a country which living standard is below Germany. Your human development index is lower as is your development index.

    Your country is breaking apart buddy and nothing can change that. Ho you feel about the fact that we make deals with California and Oregon? That their governors make foreign politics
    against republican states? How you feel about the fact that California made deals with Germany to undermine trumps attempts to get trade deals with Germany and EU?

    When trump mae tariffs on european goods, it was California that send data to the EU about companies in republican held states. Our counter tariffs targted exactly the companies and in end trump buckled and lost this.

    You have traitors in your own ship that flag targets for your enemies.

    As Merkel said, there are elements in USA whose hate against trump is greater than their love for their country.

    In a time where AI controlled drones exist your aircraft carriers have the same value that battle ships had 1945.

    And whats your fear about islamic nations? Your country turns into a Guatemala and Honduras style shithole.

    You import thousands of africans through mexico. Since we locked down, they go there

    https://www.voanews.com/usa/us-mexico-border-africans-join-diversifying-migrant-community

    Your percentage of low standard humans has reached 40%.

    I saw your country dude...its a shithole. You have conditions i would see as impossible for me to accept.

    Our wall stands since 2016

    [​IMG]

    We reduced migration by 97%. While your country is still flooded with 3rd worlders.

    When i saw LA i was disgusted. Gastoania in South Carolina looked like Nigeria. Africans evrywhere.
