Drang Nach Osten 2.0
Yeah, I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking that this post will be some provocative screed about a Judeo-Nazi push from the Mediterranean Sea in the West all the way to the Jordan River in the East, displacing the Palestinian Untermenschen, just like the German Drang Nach Osten displaced Poles to make room for German colonizers:
Expulsion of Poles following the German invasion of Poland in 1939. Poles were removed to make room for German colonists, as part of a plan to Germanize western Poland.
Well, you’re wrong.
This is about the renewed German Drang Nach Osten that was just announced.
You’ll recall yesterday that I listed several provocative military moves that NATO/America has been making, possibly to bludgeon Russia into agreeing to a ceasefire so that the Neocons could declare victory in Ukraine. One of those moves was Finland granting US access to 15 military bases in Finland, which would place American forces in a position to pose a direct threat to Russia’s second largest city, St. Petersburg, as well as the key ice free port of Murmansk. It was an extraordinarily foolish thing to do, given that the current war is all about NATO expansion eastward—NATO’s Drang Nach Osten, which we all know is really an American thing. Russia sees this expansion eastward as a direct military threat—and they’re right.
Yesterday I appended a video presentation by Max Blumenthal titled something like, What’s wrong with Israelis? Today I need to find a video that would explain, What in God’s name is the problem Germans? I think we know what’s wrong with Lithuanians, but what sane German thinks it’s a good thing to station a German brigade in Lithuania? Remember how the Poles reacted to the German idea to permanently station German troops in Poland? How do the Germans expect Russia to react to a German brigade right on the border with Belarus? If they and their Neocon masters think this is going to coerce Russia into giving up in Ukraine, boy are they wrong.
Here’s what I’m talking about:
The deployment of a German brigade in Lithuania
About two weeks ago, German and Lithuanian authorities agreed to station a Bundeswehr brigade in Lithuania.
Until 2027, approximately 4,800 German soldiers and another 200 civilian personnel will be deployed to the Rudniki and Rukla firing range areas (near the borders with Russia and Belarus). The formation of the brigade will begin in the second quarter of 2024.
It is expected to be formed from three battalions: the 203rd Tank Battalion in North Rhine-Westphalia, the 122nd Armored Infantry Battalion from Bavaria and the Battalion Battle Group of the NATO Forward Presence Force under German command. They have been stationed in Lithuania since 2017 with a strength of 1,500 military personnel.
The main units will move in 2025-2026, and by 2027 the brigade "should reach full combat readiness."
The Bundeswehr has never before permanently stationed so many troops in other countries, so this is also an important political move for the authorities. Berlin sees the plans as an opportunity to show its significant military role on NATO's eastern flank, even though the Germans will have to strain both the army and the budget to do so.
Lithuania has already said that it has no money to finance the German military, while Berlin has already agreed on budget plans for 2024. At the same time, the additional 100 billion euros in emergency expenditures included the purchase of equipment to replenish the stockpile after its transfer to the AFU. Thus, contracts for replacing equipment will have to "compete" for funding with other Bundeswehr programs, including the brigade in Lithuania.
It’s true that this deployment may never actually come off. Nevertheless, it’s sure to enrage the Russians—and right thinking people generally. When will Americans wake up to what our rulers are doing? There is no need to be at war with Russia.
Dysgenics at work? People are acting completely loco in the NATO vassal states. I think northern Europeans desperately need an infusion of Asian DNA, or something. I say that as a man of mostly northern European heritage, British, German, Dutch, Norwegian and Tuscan with a little bit of Amerindian, east & south Asian DNA to spice things up a bit.
May be stationing Germans will make the Lithuanians feel safe enough to cut off Kaliningrad.
I’m sure they are thinking the Russians would never attack Lithuania and establish a land corridor to Kaliningrad.
Or the West thinks stationing Western Troops on the Russian border, including Finland, will terrify the Russians into a ceasefire in Ukraine?
