Germany: Tens of Thousands of Leftists Protest Against Arming the Ukraine, Demand Peace Talks

Apparently, German leftists are a lot more engaged and ethical than American leftists. American leftists don’t care how many Ukrainians die, as long as “Bad Daddy” Putin is inconvenienced in some way.

Or, maybe this difference is based on the fact that the Germans are feeling the heat from this conflict a lot more than the Americans.

CNA:

Thousands of people in Berlin on Thursday (Oct 3) demonstrated against Germany’s military support for Ukraine as it battles to hold back invading Russian troops.

Participants answered a call by a radical left-wing collective to gather in the German capital and brandished placards reading “Negotiations! No weapons!”, “No to war” and “Pacifism is not naive”. Some also held anti-American signs.

One of their main demands was for Germany to stop sending weapons to Ukraine, which Kyiv desperately needs to defend itself from Russian aggression.

The protest came one week ahead of the first state visit by a US president to the European country since Ronald Reagan in 1985.

What?

Joe Biden is also expected to meet with Ukraine’s allies to discuss military support to the war-torn nation, at the US army base in Ramstein, western Germany.

Far-left populist leader Sahra Wagenknecht, who attended the Berlin protest, has long called for an end to weapon deliveries to Kyiv and opposes a plan to deploy US long-range missiles in Germany.

Germany has been the second-largest contributor of military aid to Ukraine after the United States but plans to halve its budget for that aid next year.

The state leaders of Saxony and Brandenburg, where AfD came in second, as well as the head of the conservatives in Thuringia, have called for a ceasefire in Ukraine, in an article expected to be published on Friday in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper.

It does seem to be wrapping up.

Everything is pointing in that direction.

But it’s looked that way for a while, hasn’t it?
