Longtime German Left MP Dieter Dehm called the description of Russian mass killings in Bucha “probably faked”
“The deaths were not faked but the description of the causes were probably faked”
Dehm can legally be called an ex Stasi agent, a court ruled
More fun facts about this vile character: he’s a self made millionaire from writing 80s pop songs and he said the young women of #LinkeMeToo are were a NATO OPERATION

Everyone knows when WW2 started in 1939, when the Nazis invaded Poland.

So why do the biggest war memorials in Berlin say the war started in 1941, and what does this tell us about the memorial debate in C Eastern Europe? 🧵
As the 30s started, it was obvious that Europe was heading for another war. Countries scrambled around for what to do to protect themselves.

The West largely chose appeasement and refused to take the Nazi threat seriously.

The Soviet Union chose a different path.
Stalin saw the rise of the Nazis as an opportunity, rather than a direct threat. He got his Commissar for Foreign Affairs Vyacheslav Molotov (who the cocktail is named after) to negotiate with the Nazis.

But what was different about this than the other non-aggression pacts?

@Vitsche @euronews Abuse on the metro just for wearing Ukrainian colours is common form - I spoke to 3 people who have experienced it in Berlin alone.

Meanwhile in Frankfurt (Oder) an entire dorm of ukrainians was plastered in Zs Image
@Vitsche @euronews One family from Irpin - site of some of the most brutal massacres of the war - moved to Dresden, where they were called Nazis by Russians and the pro-Russian far-right. Image

A lot of prominent Germans on left and right have been backing away from arming Ukraine because “you can’t beat war with war.”

do they think the Nazis just gave up? Image
I want peace, you want peace, everyone wants peace. the only way to get peace with an ethnic cleansing invader is to beat them back and hurt them so much they hurt you. Tattoo this inside your eyeballs, pacifists

A very German scandal?
In today's Times I covered a once-rising star of the SPD. A young woman from the east, she is now First Minister of Merkel's home state. But recent revelations show she "turned her office into a branch of Gazprom"

thetimes.co.uk/article/german…
She set up a fake environmental NGO where they brainstormed how to use their status to evade US sanctions on the now-cancelled Nord Stream 2 pipeline

thetimes.co.uk/article/german…
Hundreds of emails and documents released show the state leader collaborated so closely with Nord Stream 2 AG, the company behind the project, that revisions to her public statements were suggested. The company even asked to eavesdrop on “off the record” briefings to journalists.
