Germany vulnerable to sabotage?

Hell yeah.

Germany has been sabotaging Germany for years.

Berlin power outage highlights German vulnerability to sabotage – Power is being restored to the last homes hit by a five-day blackout in Germany’s snow-covered capital, Berlin.

The outage was caused by a suspected arson attack and came as temperatures dipped below freezing.

It is reportedly the longest blackout in the capital’s post-war history. A far-left militant group has claimed it was behind the outage.

There’s “critical”

Then there’s “very critical.”

Then there’s Germany critical.

Merz issues business SOS in letter to allies – Chancellor Merz has told coalition politicians the situation in several key German businesses is “very critical.” He said the government must prioritize improving areas like energy and labor costs in 2026.

German of the day: Freier Fall

That means free fall.

The Federation of German Industries (BDI) believes that Germany’s economy is in “free fall.” German industry is currently facing a dramatic low point, BDI President Peter Leibinger told the news agency dpa. “The economy is in its worst crisis since the Federal Republic was founded, but the federal government is not responding decisively enough.”

A new industry report expects industrial production to decline by two percent this year. This would be the fourth consecutive year of decline. “This is not a temporary dip, but a structural decline,” Leibinger said. German industry is continuously losing ground.

Berlin to become more car-friendly now?

That’ll be easy.

It couldn’t be any more car-unfriendly.

‘The car belongs in Berlin’: city backpedaling on bike-friendly policies, critics say – Car-critical measures have been slashed since the conservative CDU came into power in 2023, triggering protests and dividing communities.

Don’t blame it on your voluntary dependency on Russian energy

You already had the highest energy prices before the war in Ukraine began.

Blame it on your self-inflicted Green Energiewende (energy turnaround). Turn off all your nuclear power plants and find out.

Germany’s heating bills have tripled since the start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine – Germany has faced a significant increase in heating costs since 2021, after deciding to end its reliance on Russia as a key energy supplier over its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Germans are facing a 82% increase in heating costs since 2021, when the country decided to cut ties with Russia following its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

New clown in town!

And she “will continue to play a prominent role on the world stage.”

Former German Foreign Minister Baerbock starts UN job – Annalena Baerbock, former Green Party politician and foreign minister, has moved to New York to start her new job on September 9. Not everyone is happy that she will be presiding over the UN General Assembly…

Then, on June 2, she was elected as the new president of the United Nations (UN) General Assembly in New York. However, unlike her predecessors, Baerbock was not approved by the customary show of hands to signal unanimous approval, but through a secret ballot.

What’s a little power gap here and there…

As long as you can say you have the highest energy costs in Europe?

Or is it the highest energy costs in the world? I forget. Go, Greens!

Germany could see power supply gap in 2030, regulator says – Germany’s Federal Network Agency on Wednesday warned that rare electricity shortfalls could occur as early as 2030 if the country’s energy transition stalls, though supply is otherwise expected to remain secure through 2035.

The Security of Supply Report, approved by the federal cabinet on Wednesday, highlights the risks should renewable expansion slow, new gas-fired power plants fail to materialize, and electricity demand not become sufficiently flexible.

German of the day: Klima-Disinformation

That means climate disinformation.

The consequences of green climate disinformation – Whether it’s heat, drought or global warming, the loudest warnings about climate change are preventing effective solutions…

The EU had proposed being able to buy three percent of its CO₂ reduction outside the continent from 2036, for example by planting forests in Africa… Green lobbyists, on the other hand, want all of this money to be spent on climate protection in this country (Germany). The case is exemplary: those who are particularly vehement in their warnings about climate change are opposed to pragmatic solutions.

Ban the AfD!

Its political competetors demand.

Gee, I wonder why? German voters seem to be much less concerned.

Poll: Germans largely reject ban on far-right AfD – Germans reject a ban on the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) by a majority of 52% to 27% in favour, according to a new representative survey published by the Allensbach Institute polling organization on Saturday.

The proportion opposed to a ban rises to 65% in the east of the country, according to the poll published by the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung daily newspaper, while it falls to 49% in the western states. The AfD enjoys widespread support in the formerly communist eastern states.
