It isn’t about payback, it’s about winning the war. By rebuilding and re-arming Germany after WW II, we helped turn them into a peaceful Parliamentary Republic (maybe too peaceful...now that we’ve shown them how to live at peace with their neighbors, I wouldn’t mind seeing them show some fight against possible threats from Russia).

I've been to Germany several times these past decades. I loved it.
My husband and I visited Russia in 2008. We BOTH agreed that Russia had a LONG way to go to catch up with the West. They WANT it but but not very much. They are SO used to doing what they want with no consequences. Oh well. Live and learn.

Maybe . . . but be careful what you wish for.

The Germans, therefore, are wrong yet again. In war they are wrong and now, even in peace, they are wrong, not doing enough.
It's my guess that whatever the Germans do, it will be too little, not enough or just wrong. :o)
