- Germany to spend 119 billion euros
- Money will go mainly to help missions abroad
- Comes after criticism of material

BERLIN: -- Germany is to spend 119 billion euros upgrading its military equipment.


The decision comes after the German Army faced criticism for the poor condition of its military equipment.

More recruits?

Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen is also thought to be considering an increase in recruits.

A government report had described the German Army as being at the limit of its capacity for intervention, as a result of cuts in the budget.

Funding for foreign missions

Sources say the money will go mainly on new equipment to help German forces fulfill their missions abroad.

German soldiers are deployed in Syria, Iraq and Mali.

Reinforcements are also being sent to Afghanistan.

How about they stay home and guard the border?

Or maybe the Macedonian Border?

Hospital beds?

Germany started wars but couldn't win them.

Germany created a migrant chaos but can't bring order to it.

Germany opened the door to Islamic terrorists but doesn't know what to do with them.

So ... what's the point of a German army?

This is the leadership of Europe.

Another consequence of the Putin menace against Europe.

Not correct at all.

Change the word Germany to German politicians and you are correct.

It is equally applicable to politicians worldwide.

Maybe they are thinking about starting another as a Muslims Country this time

Time will tell

Yes Germany did not win WW1 and WW2 chiefly due to the activities of UK and US.

But Germany did win the previous war which was against France which toke place on 19.07.1870 and ended 10.05.1871.

Don't mention the war.

An neither the cheese-eating surrender-frogs.

Another consequence of the Putin menace against Europe.

What menace? It's NATO moving up close to Russia's borders not the other way around. So whose prodding who?

Watch it France ! May be you have to start brushing up on your German . Of course The Brits and The Yanks will come and bail you out again.
