The rest of europe doesn't realize apathy aids the enemy.

Lets see......we moved into Afghanistan October 2001 you have lost 23 troops so that adds up to just over 3 fatalities a year. Smokes, you guys are really putting in the hard work! As of Feb. 8th we've lost 414 troops and you lost 23!?!? Thanks Angela and Gernot for helping us make the point that you obviously are not putting in the hard work. These countries that sit on their hands while we stand up, and kick ass to clean up the world's messes. :roll: “We already have more than 20 dead to mourn from this work, so it isn’t so very safe,” Gernot Erler, a deputy foreign minister, said on the Inforadio channel. “It simply is not true that some are doing the hard work and the others are quitters, to put it drastically.”

The French marching to the sound of the guns and the Germans running away? Guderian is spinning in his grave. I've heard it said that France actually has a good army and officer corps. Their problem is that anyone with a shred of courage or competence never gets promoted past Colonel. Germany's problem is that all the hippies took over the government, where as here they just took over the media and universities. Germans take pacifism with their mother's milk - sorry, formula.

It's those hippies who don't want any dead Afghan civilians or friendly fire shit. They'd lose their job over it, if it came from a German barrel Whilst collateral damage is something the US administration has no problem selling to its public, it would be completely impossible to do the same here. I think that's what they are most paranoid about. 50 million casualties in WWII came to haunt this society and it's the German babyboomer generation ("Wirtschaftswunder") now, that's still influenced by it. I am young. My generation makes no difference between US soldiers our age, or ourselves. We don't have that chip on our shoulder anymore. However, we DO enjoy the freedom that some liberal politics brings us. I think anyone would... let me give you an example: Germany is SOO liberal, they DON'T even impose a speedlimit on their motorists when you take the autobahn (interstates), lol... everyone is free to get into a Porsche, Mercedes, Audi or BMW and burn some rubber - 160 miles p/hr no problem! I mean, that's when liberalism is fun, believe me :-) :arrow: Fucking hippies… you’re right ticticboom
