Hans von der Burchard reported that BND chief Martin Jäger warned during a intelligence hearing in the Bundestag of a growing threat from Russia. Germany could become involved in a violent conflict with Russia; the attempted attack in Leipzig is an example of this. According to Jäger, no other country currently poses a similarly direct and comprehensive threat. Russia is pushing for confrontation because Germany does not accept Moscow's policies and its attack on Ukraine, and supports its alliance partners. Jäger stated that Russia is assessing Germany's reaction and interprets any sign of uncertainty as an invitation for further pressure. Vladimir Putin cannot simply end the war against Ukraine without jeopardizing his power base at home, and therefore must demonstrate success. Although the Russian leadership is aware of the limits of their military and economic means, they compensate for weaknesses with repression, resource allocation towards the war, as well as determination and willingness to take risks. Moscow assumes that the West will not withstand the pressure and relies on its weaknesses. For the upcoming winter, Jäger expects particularly harsh Russian attacks on Ukraine. Russia may also attempt to disrupt Western arms production and deliveries using military means, and to weaken Europe’s support for Ukraine through intimidation and interference. He anticipates renewed nuclear threats. Currently, there are no indications of a large-scale Russian attack on NATO territory; however, low-level military activities, especially in the Baltics, as well as so-called false-flag operations cannot be excluded. Jäger described Russia's actions as a shadow war and warned of a continuing real danger of attacks in Germany. According to von der Burchard, the BND sees itself as the first line of defense; the contribution referred to an intelligence reform with new powers. #Russland #Ukraine #Sicherheit (translated)

NIUS reported that Mohamet E. is classified as a "MI case" and thus a threat to Germany's internal security. However, deportation is not taking place because staff and documents are lacking. NIUS described the jurisdictional squabbles of the authorities as a danger to human lives. https://t.co/MLj7ekxqus https://t.co/k4r2hYLbuD #InnereSicherheit #Asylpolitik #Behördenversagen (translated)

The truly dumbest "argument." On one hand, you can look at Japanese and German cities in 1945 and, if you are not a right-wing extremist revisionist, you will hardly come to the conclusion that genocide was committed against Germany and Japan. On the other hand, the destruction is so extensive, while at the same time the population in the Gaza Strip has grown and the number of deaths, including those who died of natural causes (and terrorists), is about 4% of the population. One can hardly inflict such destruction while killing twenty times fewer people proportionally if one does not take human lives into account. This does not exclude the possibility that this destruction can be considered a war crime, so-called domicide. It also does not rule out other war crimes (which are practically guaranteed due to the duration of the fighting, the hatred over the cause of the war's outbreak, and the number of combatants). But if you declare destruction as genocide, then the word is worth nothing anymore. #Kriegsverbrechen #Genozid #Zerstörung (translated)

Lavrov points to the open wound of Germany's historical amnesia: Merz unabashedly announces that Germany should "again" become the strongest military power in Europe – and acts as if this is a harmless modernization phrase. “Again”? Really? The last time Germany claimed this role for itself, it ended in total catastrophe for all of Europe and cost millions of lives. Lavrov rightly asks whether the German Chancellor even understands the word – or whether he is deliberately playing with historical fire while simultaneously feeding Ukraine with weapons and dismissing Russia's security interests as "aggression." While the West incessantly talks about "Russian imperialism," Berlin openly dreams of a return to the old military dominance role. This is not a slip of the tongue, but a program. And those who know history understand where such ambitions have led in the past. #Geschichte #Militär #Europa (translated)
