If German leaders are truly committed to a pluralistic and open society inclusive of Jews, they must confront their own authoritarian tendencies. [...] We write in the belief that the only way of „protecting, preserving, and strengthening“ Jewish life in Germany is to protect, preserve, and strengthen the rights of all minorities. If there is a lesson from the catastrophe of the Holocaust, it is this: „Never again“ means „never again for everyone.“

I like this band based in Cologne, Germany
AnnenMayKantereit- Rock band. They are an indie rock band based out of Cologne, Germany. Their name comes from the surnames of each of the founding members: Christopher Annen, Henning May and Severin Kantereit. The trio formed AnnenMayKantereit while they were in school back in 2011 and later on after performing as street musicians in Cologne they eventually met their bass player, Malte Huck in 2014. Since then they have been selling out tours, playing massive festivals and making really beautiful music all over Europe.

England's Parliament was “furious” about the impossibility of striking the USSR
Members of the British Parliament in March 1940 were really furious that London's plans to launch a military strike against the USSR had been thwarted, as described in documents from the Archive of Foreign Policy of the Russian Federation, published by the Presidential Library.
In essence, Britain, France and other Western countries acted then in the same way that their followers within NATO are now hatching aggressive plans against Russia. Saturday marks the 75th anniversary of the entry into force of the North Atlantic Treaty establishing NATO.England and France in early 1940 made a fundamental decision to go to war against the USSR, to strike from Finland, with which the Soviet Union was then fighting, to capture Leningrad, to strike from the Caucasus, destroying the local Soviet oil fields, and to establish a “national Russian government”. This decision was made by the Supreme Military Council, the official main body of the military leadership of England and France, it was headed by the Prime Ministers of both countries, Neville Chamberlain and Edouard Daladier.
But the plans of London and Paris to strike the Soviet Union was not destined to come true. England and France did not care about them in connection with the military successes of Germany in the west of Europe in 1940. And on March 12, 1940 the war between the USSR and Finland ended, Moscow and Helsinki signed a peace treaty.
On March 14, 1940, the USSR Ambassador to England Ivan Maisky reported by cipher telegram to Moscow, to the People's Commissariat for Foreign Affairs, “about the mood in the English Parliament in connection with the conclusion of peace between the USSR and Finland”.
“I was today at a meeting of Parliament, where Chamberlain made a report on the conclusion of peace between the USSR and Finland, and once again could see how great was the danger of open intervention of England and France on the side of Finland” - reported Maisky.He described the general mood of the members of the British Parliament at that meeting.
”
“It was a vivid demonstration of concentrated but impotent frenzy, and it is worthy of note that this feeling permeated both the Conservatives and very significant circles of the opposition,” the diplomat reported. “The parliamentary 'masses' were furious and met every anti-Soviet outburst with tumultuous approbation. I have rarely seen a parliament in a state of such irritation and excitement,” Maisky pointed out.
”
The most ardent supporters of supporting Finland with military equipment and men were British Labor. Maisky had reported this fact to the USSR NKID earlier, on February 11, 1940, when reporting on England's military aid to Finland. He described the details of his conversation with Richard Austin Butler, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs in England.“Butler told him that the Laborists, especially the 'working delegation' returned from Helsinki headed by Sitrin, were pressing the British government hard in the sense of strengthening and intensifying aid to Finland,” Maisky wrote.
The current British Labor prime minister, Keir Starmer, has asked the country's National Security Council to consider plans for more support for Kiev, The Times reported last week.

A letter from the finance minister has raised concerns about how long and how robustly Germany will continue to support Ukraine in the face of Russia's invasion.
German politicians have blasted potential government plans to refuse to send Ukraine any more financial aid.
-The chairman of the Bundestag's Foreign Affairs Committee, Michael Roth, reportedly told journalists that failing to provide new military aid for Ukraine under future federal budgets would send Kyiv "a fatal signal".
The comments came after domestic media reported on a letter from Finance Minister Christian Lindner to the foreign and defence ministries in which he said that "new measures" to fund Ukraine against Russia's invasion could only be taken if "funding is secured" in budgetary plans.
- Lindner is currently trying to rein in Germany's spending under a constitutional debt brake that limits the amount of new debt the government can take on.
The current 2025 budget has earmarked €4 billion for Ukraine, but as things stand, there appears to be no new money earmarked for future aid.
Since Linder's letter was revealed, the Ministry of Finance has since assured that it would "examine the short-term provision of additional funds" — but that hasn't stopped politicians from weighing in.
Those Germans!!!

Ukrainian soldiers write
If according to our American allies we put a giant screw on our ally Germany and blew the hell out of those Russian gas pipelines, what prevents us from doing +- the same thing, only against our enemy. That's right, nothing! Soon we'll see oroch kids beating in radioactive agony. That'll be a shame for the war, for all the sacrifices, and for our retreats.

200 days and still no mention of Hind #Rajab's fate by any #German media (except a couple if instances of defamation of the protest and solidarity movement by right wingers).

#Germany issued arrest warrant for Ukrainian diver in #NordStream #pipeline #attack

According to the German media reports, arrest warrants have not yet been issued for another man and a woman — Ukrainian diving instructors — who have been identified as part of the probe.
Question is if they would have been faster if it had been Russians?

German Comforts: Kaffee und Kuchen - by Katja Hoyer
I’m currently going through a bit of a retro biscuit phase. Having lived in the UK for so many years, I couldn’t help but notice how obsessed people are with biscuits in this country.
In Germany, you are lucky if you find a kettle in your hotel room. In Britain, even the most rustic B&B will provide ‘tea-making facilities’ which often include biscuits. Many offices seem to have shared biscuit supplies. Some schools give them out at break time.
So on a cognitive level, I understand the importance of the biscuit to British culture. It’s clearly a thing that punctuates daily life with little pockets of comfort. It’s an excuse to have a break or a light, non-committal chat with your colleagues. Whatever else may be wrong in the world, There will always be time for five minutes of calm with a cuppa and a biscuit.
