Europeans are genocidal lunatics. There were incidents of ethnic cleansing as late as the early 2000s. Telling countries like germany to rearm is lunacy
I am in Germany and I can see this is true. The general attitude here is quite nasty towards other countries, it's only tempered by lack of ability. If there is a need for defense then Germany should be contributing more money to shared defense projects rather than having a large army of its own.
