Yes, Merz is a shocker, an archetypal "system of control" apparatchik. Let us not forget that this regime has incarcerated Dr Reiner Fuellmich, the brilliant attorney who called out Convid1984 and the deadly vax, after kidnapping him from Mexico and subjecting him to a uber-corrupt trial. He is languishing in Bremervoerde as a political prisoner of the cowardly German government.
Poor old CJ has been pretty crook lately, but is recovering well now I think. He still faces the threat of jail for having a very faint swastika on the cover of the first edition of his book that called out Convid1984.
He had the honesty and fortitude to call out the hypocrisy of the system, hit a nerve and is being punished unjustly for his temerity. Blessings to him.
Not a bad idea, jsinton. He enjoyed his recent US road trip, although it was so hectic I think it hastened his health problem. Then again, if he did this, the corrupt German authorities might just kidnap him as they did with Reiner.
I've read somewhere that Germany is struggling to find the required number of soldiers who they've undertaken to send to Lithuania as per agreement.. How, at the same time the Germans are entertaining the notion of taking on the Russian war machine is hard to fathom.. (from Johannesburg)
I am from Germany and also stunned about the massiv support of "defending against Russia" (as they pose it here) in the population, which might be about roughly 50% or so.
Many Germans really believe the stupid stories about imperial/fascist Russia or Putin, who is going to swallow Ukraine and europe after that. The better informed Germans, especially the ones, that read alternative media, are way more critical of this old wive's tale.
Still the legacy media and coopted civil organizations do impose a major influence on public opinion and it is easy to control it by will. So there isn't much chance of changing the political environment much before actual hot war breaks out.
What's even more baffling is the fact that the Germans are the ones who should know better what happened to them 80 years ago.. There seems to be something suicidal about this in my view.. (from Johannesburg)
Yes, absolutely. But they are brainwashed in a way that combines the state doctrine of "Fight against Rightism/Fascism/Nazism", that targets primarily the "Alternative for Deutschland" AfD with the war against alleged neo-imperial Russia - which is said to be similar to Hitler fascism in German official narratives. Many people here believe firmly in that narrative.
The idea, that German history just repeats in a striking similarity is actively blocked by overriding this association. They did it with COVID, when scepticism was directly target with PsyOps of paranoia against so called "Querdenker".
The slightest spark of what used to be common sense has been redefined as "Right-whatever" (...radical, ...extreme or "fascist") in the last twenty years or so by our huge propaganda-apparatus that we are coerced to pay for - even being threatend to go to jail in case of refusal ...
It's the kind of totalitarianism that was predicted (among others) by Huxley already in the 1950's ...
Sadly true, I still try to wrap my head around it and fail repeatedly to understand how all this lunacy could happen in the real world, it is just too bizarre or "hanebüchen" to even turn into fiction.
I worry though that it isn't just the Germans who suffer this kind of a malady.. I remember reading an article in one European or UK publication a few years ago, which showcased how young Swedes soldiers were preparing for a war against Russia in some future time.
The same publication once ran an article which featured the Norwegian Stoltenberg himself, if I remember correctly, as a young man, pointing out that he trained in the army where the indoctrination was all about fighting an impending war against the Russians.
The Estonians don't want to hear a thing about Russia unless it is war-talk against the Russians.. I think it was Kallas who once said, "Russia can't have all its wealth to itself", or something to that effect..
You are right, it is not a purely German "Krankheit", there is quite some tradfitional/cultural hostility against all things Russian in Eastern and Northern Europe and it would be some major feat to list all the potential reasons for it. Anyway it will suffice to find enough cannon and drone-fodder that might replace the unlucky Ukrainian soldiers one day or sooner.
Prof Armin Krishnan of East Carolina Uni is of the opinion that South Africa is in the midst of 5th generation warfare, designed to cause as much chaos as possible. I have come to the conclusion that the globalists think it may be easier to establish their One World Government that way.
My take is that the new ANC government that took power after the 1994 democratic elections was a project of the gobalists from the get-go. The SA Constitution was imposed upon the masses without any consultation.. Alistair Crooke once mentioned this fact in one of his appearances, I guess it was on Judge Napolitano's podcasts.. (from Johannesburg)
While the Bundeswehr reached approximately 186,221 active-duty personnel in January 2026—exceeding the initial 2026 target range of 186,000–190,000—it remains significantly short of the 260,000 active soldiers required by NATO targets for the mid-2030s.
Recruitment Challenges: Nearly a quarter of new recruits drop out within six months, and the military faces chronic shortages in junior officer and NCO positions.
Things might change if the first 200.000 German soldiers have been killed within the first half year which is about the rate Ukrainians are killed or wounded severely for more than four years now. German society isn't up to anything so existential like that, and no one can imagine, what would happen, if they installed a violent system of terror in good old Germany, that has completely forgotten about the hard ways of life.
As you point out, the war will spin out of control very quickly. Remember the First World War started with the assassination of the Arch Duke and his wife by a Serbian intelligence operative, working for a small cabal of Serbian intelligence staff. They thought that by killing the Arch Duke, the heir of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, somehow they'd free Serbia for self-determination. In the war that followed, in about 4.5 years approximately 60% of all Serbian males of all ages died from combat, disease, starvation, and pestilence.
Our deep states in the West think the same way, that they can constantly kill Russians and destroy large parts of Russian infrastructure and Putin will not respond. Enjoy your trip, as Germany, like much of the EU, is headed for a conflagration of some sort: it's just a matter of time.
Some may recall JFK's famous speech on this very day in 1963, which memorably (I was a kid but still remember!) began "Ich bin ein Berliner". Wishing you a safe journey and positive experience John!
It is sad and scary that your analysis is likely spot-on: another pointless war between Germany and Russia looms and cannot help but spiral into nuclear exchange.
Germany is lucky of being utterly incapable military-wise (as well as so many other domains of science, politics, foreign relations, technology etc.), so it's warmongering stance does not really pose a severe threat for Russia so far. Of course massive military buildup with the help of external powers might change that in the near future. Nonetheless, there is yet no reason for Russia to go nuclear against Germany. It has enough conventional escalation potential to destroy Germany with precision strikes in the long term, without risking a global war. Germany has no friends and nobody would risk being targeted for defending Germany. But Russia will probably stick to asymmetric means to punish Germany without escalating military aggression. Germany will crumble of its own incapability if Russia keeps waiting long enough, but there are many, many ways to accelerate Germany's downfall if the need arises. Of course, its population will be the one suffering most, especially if it keeps ignoring its utterly criminal elite any longer.
All of the populations of Western Civilization will continue to suffer as long as they continue to ignore their criminal elite. Germany and the U.K. are merely foreshadowing what is in store for the rest of the world. The Roman Empire was also ruled by criminal elites for centuries, until Christianity dismantled it. The solution is the same today.
They live in the London Square Mile, don't pay taxes and have their own law. When past British kings needed loans to go to war, they had to bow before being allowed to enter. Historian Matt Ehret and his wife wrote a fascinating series on these people.
I very much agree with you, John Leake. While I cannot be in Berlin for this conference, I am daily noting the losses of free speech, the trajectory of censorship, and the collective dumbing down of politicians who seem to be blissfully unaware of the approaching storm you are predicting. War is inevitable, grand scale chaos, civil disobedience, famine and disease will be rampant, with massive casualties. This war will be ruthless beyond the pale. The key marker I have been watching for is the mobilization, led by Turkey, of the Islamic countries against Israel, in an ungodly confederacy, ordained long ago, ironically by God Himself. Of note is the placement of YGL's and Blackrock executives in positions of power, bragged about by Schwab. These "appointments" aka "elections" are not at all coincidental, but carefully conceived soft coups. Ultimately, the 4th Reich will prevail for a short time, then be destroyed forever. Until then, there will be trouble like the world has never seen
Absolutely love reading your articles! Would you consider recording them as Dr. McCullough does? It would be nice to have the option to listen to them when driving.
Meh, Vlad will send in covert operatives to demolish these drone 'plants'. Mostly because Putin's adversaries are getting impatient with everyone ganging up against the Bear and motivating Vlad to act.
"Germany should be nuked first because it is the source of the worst in European history... I beg the Almighty that won't happen. I have a lot of friends in Europe, but I have no contact with them because they are banned by their elites from talking to us. These elites are preparing them for war, though they cannot comprehend that if a real big war is unleashed, there will be nobody in Europe left to talk to. I pray that we won’t have to make this decision."
I recently finished a trip through Germany, Austria, Check Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary. Only the first had unrestricted Islamic immigration. The others were highly restricted. The difference couldn't have been more stark. Wakeup Europe, the cultures of Islam and western enlightenment are not compatible.
Berlin was destroyed by the allies and finished by Russia. Russia is not easy to conquer (the west already tried) for many geo-political reasons and a matter of unity, proud of courage from the Russian people, also Russia as Iran is self-sufficient. Russia has 17000 embargo and penalties and still survives. The powers are shifting from the oil to green energy but they are the same people. The world is shifting, they are fighting to keep the hegemony (mainly anglo) but other blokes of countries had emerged. Last, we must not underestimate China that probably is the most powerful country in the world by itself (no need of allies). Thanks John, I didn't know about all these weapons going to Ukraine, we don't talk about Ukraine anymore, the flags are not anymore in the American windows but I know Ukraine is attacking Russia with drones. It is madness but what you can expect from corrupted men (to be corrupted is a sine qua non condition to be in power nowadays). God help us!

That's right, Gwyneth...and Reiner Fuellmich even more so.
CJ should just go home and bash them from a trailer in Alabama or something. Why bother trying to stay there?

Much appreciated for the info, Alan.. I am here in Africa (South Africa) and to be honest, even here, such a level of stupidity is unheard of..
They will make military service mandatory - it's already on the way ...

Sorry, the globalist is still committed to stirring up war wherever they can. I hope they don’t succeed.
WRT the ugly modernist buildings...blame the RAF, the USAAF, and the Red Army...then the Deutsche Demokratische Republik
They needed so many windows after the war that they invented vinyl windows to meet the need.
Absolutely love reading your articles! Would you consider recording them as Dr. McCullough does? It would be nice to have the option to listen to them when driving.
