[01:15] h4unt3d it was "social democrat", Noske, who founded the "SA" (sturmabteilung), in 1919 already
[01:15] h4unt3d it was only renamed, for marketing reasons, in todays terms
[01:16] h4unt3d an organization who had shot at workers' protests, ordered by "social democrats", couldn't prevail with the name it had
[01:20] h4unt3d I recall, Hitler was known, he had received his iron cross order of merit, from a supposedly jewish officer, Hugo Gutmann, in WW1
[01:22] h4unt3d and again, the reason SA was abandoned by Hitler, wasn't any "ideological" motivated move, it was yet another political sharade, to integrate the "iregular" troops, forbidden by treaty of versaille, to integrate those troops into the re-established since then known as: Wehrmacht
[01:23] h4unt3d i don't know, how many troops "social democrats" (NAZIS!) got, nowadays
[01:23] h4unt3d according to my observation, subjectively, within the cities of "west"-germany, it must be millions
[01:24] h4unt3d which they, funnel billions of spendings into, to subsidize the luxury vehicles of undergraduates
[01:24] h4unt3d for what? i might ask.
[01:24] h4unt3d however, 300billion, that's not enough still, for the "peace activism" of theirs
[01:25] h4unt3d out of nowhere, all of the sudden, from one day to another, bam, they, require an additional budget of an entire year, in January already!
[01:25] h4unt3d just reported an hour ago
[01:39] h4unt3d anyway, the relevant military vehicles among military are those, which are equipped with ABC protection (atomic, nuclear, chemical protection)
[01:42] h4unt3d in former soviet regions, this crap was hidden almost everywhere
[01:42] h4unt3d and too, this crap was supplied to many middle-east regions
[01:43] h4unt3d Biddler Joe articulated threats, this will "change the face of war forever", some days ago
[01:44] h4unt3d no clue, whom this statement was directed towards
[01:46] h4unt3d the narrative, of a Ukraine-Russian conflict, is, at least, incomplete
[01:47] h4unt3d some rumored, ammunition was stockpiled in Ukrainian nuclear plants
[01:47] h4unt3d Ukrainian for the reason, because NATO/western equipment was mentioned, by anti-spiegel.ru
[01:48] h4unt3d now what, if anything of this is true, the allies who agitated aggresively for "weapons supplies to ukraine", which was "alliance90/green" "eco-activists" "peace-activists" "feminists", this sort of thing in "german" politics here
[01:49] h4unt3d if on top, they violated international agreements for prohibition of such weaponry, then what?
[01:50] h4unt3d did Biddler Joe with his spoutings shift blame already? or what was supplied to ukraine, when, and by whom?
[01:58] h4unt3d in germany, the ABC-related issue, is absent in publicity, as if any "war" in Ukraine, with former soviet military doctrine involved, didn't raise this question in particular.
● Jan 29
[02:02] h4unt3d the public reporting, it is fraudulent.
[02:03] h4unt3d Ukraine demands heavy tanks, from germany, when Ukraine got 6000 of those themselves.
[02:04] MinceR doubtful
[02:04] MinceR nobody uses heavy tanks anymore
[02:04] h4unt3d yes
[02:04] h4unt3d nonetheless, this is what's being debated here, for several weeks
[02:05] h4unt3d and this is, what Rhein-Metall ("social democrats") demand 300billion, an entire federal budget of an entire year demand for, additionally, out of nowhere, in January already.
[02:06] h4unt3d besides, what "german" military now asks for, are F-35, with the excuse of Ukraine/Russia... some place NATO wasn't involved with anyway, because russia may not like this
[02:06] h4unt3d the entire public reporting, is total rubbish
[02:11] h4unt3d besides, among various "social democrats", Biddler Joe, and Hitler, another common denominator exists: catholics
[02:11] h4unt3d just recently, 200000 catholics in germany chose to leave this "church"

[12:58] h4unt3d makes me wonder, since Turkey is an operator of Leopard2 tank and many turks affiliated among heavy industry in germany
[12:58] h4unt3d what those 300billion "special military budget" for Rhine-Metall are
[12:59] h4unt3d just another example how, both a "national" and an "anti-national" political doctrine are utilized to attack the peoples

[13:00] h4unt3d well yes, "social democrats", and their turkish allies
[13:01] h4unt3d that's why, the "patriotism" of theirs, and alike their "anti-fascism" are merely propagandistic utility

[13:19] h4unt3d with Saab manufacturer, sweden too was known, they were capable to operate an airforce, with a tiny fraction of the costs and spendings, the Turkish army in "germany" demands, with "social democrats" announcing their "special military budget" of 300 billion now
[13:20] h4unt3d i recall, both switzerland and Austria, who retained somewhat independent, as peoples, acquired Saab aircraft, instead of Eurofighter
[13:21] h4unt3d in fact, Austria, was the longest lasting operator of the Saab Draken (i remember this one, because it was an exemplary jet of the early cold war era)
[13:22] h4unt3d until when, EU dictate imposed "Eurofighter", and nowadays the F-35 money grave yard
[13:24] h4unt3d i had not commented on Brejvik ever, and this political turmoil in Norway too escaped my understanding, of politics, and why he, Brejvik, payed a visit to a "social democrat" youth camp on a Norwegian Island
[13:25] h4unt3d because, the "social democrat" (NAZI) re-emergence had not arrived in east-germany yet at that time, and i was occupied with studies of telekom stuff
[13:27] h4unt3d hence, i wasn't aware, of the "western values", what they are fighting for, and how, with state sponsored terrorism
[13:30] h4unt3d Brejvik (offspring of a higher ranking norwegian diplomat, and party politics affailiate there) too is an exemplary case, how a "pro-nationalist" ideal, is utilized as an attack against the peoples, and their interests
[13:31] h4unt3d whatever ideological goo was boiled up in norway (a NATO member), Brejvik was the final result
[13:41] h4unt3d aha, Martin Luther, 500 years ago, recorded some history already, with regards to the Turks, and later the outcome of Sweden joining forces, during the "30 years war"
[13:43] h4unt3d which was, the most devastating war in history (in relative numbers)
[13:44] h4unt3d and that's too, the religious reference made, by Rosenberg
[13:45] h4unt3d anyway, i think that's the reason why, "NATO" affiliation, is, when Trump labeled it "obsolete", others insisted on "neutrality" (sweden)
[13:45] h4unt3d because NATO, doesn't defen the interests, of the peoples it supposedly did, NATO, just like any other organization, was hijacked by usurpers, to serve foreign interests, that's an opinion of mine
[13:46] h4unt3d or, to put it another way, if a defense alliance was desired, NATO simply isn't the organization to join, by the peoples
[13:47] h4unt3d and "European Union" isn't any economic alliance to join either, for the sake of the peoples interests
[13:49] h4unt3d NATO and EU, that's "social democrat" (NAZI) institutions
[13:52] h4unt3d accross the oceans, with the "atlantic bridge", warburg NAZI bank, and the shareholder value over there in Washington
[13:53] h4unt3d when USA and Stalin negotiated the peace of theirs, that's why, the hangmen in Nurnberg, silenced Rosenberg, seizing his diaries (which remain in USA still), as fast as they could
[13:54] h4unt3d to re-instate their criminal organizations again, by swapping corporate identity, from NSDAP, back to "social democrat" or "[christian] democratic union"
[13:56] h4unt3d reminder, it was Noske (social democrat), who established the NAZI para-military troops
[13:56] h4unt3d they simply couldn't retain their branding anymore, because WW1 had deligitimized the ENTIRE political system in germany
[13:56] h4unt3d (besides, "house or windsors" swapped their names for that reasons, from saxe-coburg)
[13:57] h4unt3d parliamentary monarchy, or no monarch at all, at that time, the "conservative" (monarchist) and "democrats" alike, were bancrupt
[13:58] h4unt3d they simply could not re-establish any order anymore at all, without the marketing campaign of what "NSDAP" was

[14:40] h4unt3d Why is Erdogan opposed to Sweden joining NATO? They fear being exposed, for their mis-management and corruption.
[14:41] h4unt3d Although, Saab Gripen is produced in relatively low numbers, the system cost per aircraft is moderate, and Sweden reported a considerably higher availability rate of their air force, 78%.
[14:43] h4unt3d Sweden is a tiny country, in comparison to turkey and germany, while germany reported about the abysmal availability rate of "Eurofighter".
[14:45] h4unt3d And F-35 both germany and turkey chose, for whatever purpose, it's not being delivered yet at full numbers.
[14:47] h4unt3d Austria kept the SAAB Draken (an 1950s design), until 2005, and unwillingly joined the "Eurofighter" business, few month ago, re-considering SAAB again.
[14:50] h4unt3d I wasn't aware, Sweden had to demand a "special military budget" yet, an additional 300billion euros, for their military, as Germany/Turkey/NATO, intend to suck out of my pocket.
[14:51] h4unt3d Meanwhile, a "bloodiest offensive" was discussed in Ukraine, expected in March 2023, and the swedish position on this isn't clarified yet, it seems.
[14:54] h4unt3d Finland however, with their "social democrat" Uniper-bailout, already argued to join willingly, even when Sweden refrained.
[14:55] h4unt3d That's slightly unusual anyway, because Skandinavia coordinated in the skandinavian council of theirs, if that still existed.
[14:57] h4unt3d Rest assured, i won't join the Noske troops.
[14:58] h4unt3d And i think, a tiny nation, such as Sweden, which isn't member of NATO at least, is slightly underestimated, with regards to their abilities.
[14:59] h4unt3d Sweden, doesn't require several thousands of battle tanks and 300 billion "special military budget", to cause Mayhem.
● Jan 29
[15:03] h4unt3d Petr Pavl, who was elected as Czech President, Czech air-force, guess what, operates: SAAB Gripen.
[15:36] h4unt3d MinceR: Hungary too, chose the SAAB Gripen.
[15:36] h4unt3d i mean, it is not many aircraft, and not many nations operating this, yet i think the simple explanation is, there isn't any more than a few dozen of this required.
[15:37] h4unt3d In total, there is less than 300 Gripens, in a few places hidden here and there, yet 78% are combat ready, they say.
[15:39] h4unt3d The disadvantage of the Gripens, they can't depart from navy carriers, yet for DEFENSE that's not necessary either.
[15:39] h4unt3d Gripens can depart and land on short air strips, re-equipped for various different roles in a few minutes, and take-off.
[15:40] h4unt3d That's why, we don't need any Eurofighters in Germany, nor F-35 in Finland, because Sweden got the Gripens.
[15:42] h4unt3d Gripens, although not any of the latest greatest designs, a single-engine turbine only, less payload carried, on paper, that's not a winner.
[15:43] h4unt3d The Gripens are NOT cheap, that's why, and it just seems, to suffice, if there is less than 300 of those.
[15:43] MinceR not a good choice, afaik
[15:44] h4unt3d i would say, Orban wasn't a complete idiot, when acquiring 14 of those, "only", instead of F-35 elsewhere.
[15:47] h4unt3d and if the announced 78% availability rate are valid, Hungary and Czech Republic got what Germany hasn't: a combat-ready air force.
[15:53] MinceR afaik F-35 wasn't an option
[15:53] MinceR something like an F-18 version was

[16:01] h4unt3d btw. in Libya, the Saab Gripen reported an availability rate of 92% even.
[16:01] h4unt3d i am no expert on this however.

[16:27] h4unt3d with catapult, gripens could depart from air carriers too, the F-18 take-off is longer than that of the gripen, and F-18 can depart, with a catapult and it's heavy thrust twin-engine, from navy carriers
[16:28] h4unt3d however, Swedish Navy doesn't operate navy air carriers, the Gripen is designated for defense, and this didn't require navy air fleet carriers for this
[16:39] h4unt3d anywhow, that's seems another explanation, why USA fight tooth and nail, over NATO budget and spendings, to waste trillions of cash with F-35
[16:43] h4unt3d all of the sudden, Saab pops out of it's mole-hole, in Czech Republic, who couldn't afford F-35 anyway, that's the irony
[16:46] h4unt3d while saab reports up to 92% availability, at a tiny fraction of the costs, F-35 reported 60%, Eurofighter even less, far less
[16:48] h4unt3d Sweden could not have achieved this, within NATO, and the "shareholder interests" of "social democracy" there
[16:50] h4unt3d because, in Germany, the spendings surrounding this, with Warburg bank, that's all "atlantic bridge" affiliated
[16:50] MinceR gripens didn't have the range or the NATO compatibility
[16:50] MinceR and iirc they were even more expensive
● Jan 29
[17:18] h4unt3d interesting, in sweden, too it was "social democrats" in opposition to the gripen
[17:18] h4unt3d the flight costs per hour, for a gripen, were estimated with 10000/h, Eurofighter >50000/h
[17:20] h4unt3d i had not seen any faces yet, in washington, when a NATO general popped up in Czech Republic, presenting the Gripen fleet, instead of F-35
[17:22] h4unt3d well, why bother? it's less than 300 of those.
[17:23] h4unt3d in germany, they're negotating still, over terms with F-35,
[17:24] h4unt3d "social democrats", who supposedly act in the interest of "germany"
[17:27] h4unt3d while Chancellor Scholz, Rhein-Meall, and the "labor unions" demand 300billion now for this, additionally, out of nowhere, the Gripen fleet in Czech Republic is ready.
[17:28] h4unt3d *Rhein-Metall
[17:30] h4unt3d and this is the deal now: "germany" cannot justify anymore to acquire F-35, nor could justify "germany" to acquire anything at all, for air-defense
[17:30] h4unt3d 300 Gripens, that's probably enough, to protect entire Europe
