German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier has issued a rare condemnation of the U.S. over Trump's "disastrous" war on Iran, saying that it causes an irreparable rupture with the U.S. akin to Germany's rupture with Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.

Germany President Frank-Walter Steinmeier: "This war is also-- and please bear with me when I say this, as someone directly involved-- a politically disastrous mistake. And that's what frustrates me the most. A truly avoidable, unnecessary war, if its goal was to stop Iran from developing a nuclear weapon."

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz recently condemned the incompetent Trumpf junta's decision to ease oil sanctions on Russia in an effort to bring down global oil prices. He feared the move will only serve to refill the Kremlin's war chest and sustain Moscow's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The leader of Europe's largest economy called the move "wrong."

"We want to ensure that Russia does not exploit the war in Iran to weaken Ukraine," Merz added.

Yeah why would we take advice from a country that has experience with fascism?
Why would we want to learn from anyone else's mistakes when we can just copy the same mistakes and learn for ourselves?
