Merry Christmas already!
Oh, look!
“What on earth is happening with European leadership?”
What a silly question.

“European leadership?” There is no such thing. It’s just that now and then little reminders like this pop up in the news. Europe doesn’t lead. Europe doesn’t produce. It redistributes. It redistributes until there is nothing less to distribute.
First France, Now Germany: What Is Going On in Europe?
Germany’s government collapse and imminent snap elections mark the latest crisis amid an ‘uneven’ state of European leadership, an expert says.
“1.5 million Germans” can’t be wrong?
You’re right. The number of Germans being wrong is vastly higher.

When it comes to renewable energy, I mean.
‘If 1.5m Germans have them there must be something in it’: how balcony solar is taking off – Balcony solar panels can save 30% on a typical household’s electricity bill and, with vertical surface area in cities larger than roof space, the appeal is clear.
Somebody should arm the Air Force
Then they could just shoot these drones down.

And look at them and stuff. Just sayin’.
More Small Drones: Air Force Bases in Ohio, Utah, Germany All Report Sightings – Small drones were spotted flying near and over Air Force bases in Utah, Ohio, and Germany this month, Air & Space Forces Magazine confirmed—in addition to the arrest of a Chinese citizen who allegedly used a drone to snap photos of a Space Force base—as a rash of incursions around military installations expands.
German of the day: Vertrauensfrage
That means vote of confidence. Which of course means vote of lack of confidence in this case.

Who says Olaf and the SPD can’t bring in the votes?
Germany’s Scholz expected to lose confidence vote, triggering early election – Polls suggest that a February election would result in a rightward shift, at a moment when Europe’s largest economy is faltering.
They’re shaking in their boots
Those Syrian torturers involved in Assad’s atrocities who are now on their way to Germany.

The mere thought of Annalena Baerbock threatening them with “the full force of the law” gets me shaking too. With laughter.
Germany warns Assad supporters involved in atrocities in Syria against trying to flee there – Germany’s foreign minister is warning anyone involved in atrocities for the ousted Syrian government against seeking refuge in her country and says they would face “the full force of the law.”
Drones come seldom alone
Myterious drones. They’re not just for New Jersey anymore.

Everybody’s doing it. It’s Drone-o-mania!
Germany: Drones spotted over US air base in Ramstein – Germany’s Der Spiegel magazine said drones were also seen over facilities belonging to the Rheinmetall arms maker. It comes after US authorities said there was no evidence of a threat over drone sightings in New Jersey.
It’s just a phase-out the Germans are going through
They’ll come to their senses soon enough.

Or maybe they won’t. Hard to say for sure.
Swedish minister open to new measures to tackle energy crisis, blames German nuclear phase-out – Sweden is ready to introduce new measures to tackle the country’s soaring energy prices, Energy Minister Ebba Busch announced on Thursday (12 December), blaming Germany’s nuclear phase-out for the crisis in the country and at EU level…
One main reason Busch cited for the surge in electricity prices is Germany’s decision to dismantle its nuclear power plants, saying it also has detrimental effects for Europe.
“I’m furious with the Germans,” Busch told Swedish broadcaster SVT.
“They have made a decision for their country, which they have the right to make. But it has had very serious consequences,” she added.
