i'm. on top. of it. by the observed events of the past few years and asked myself several times what's going on in my native germany. millions of refugees u.s. intelligence agencies indiscriminately listening in on german citizens and the government and once again german tanks are heading east. from various political parties and various independent experts and journalists in an effort to understand just how independent germany really is when it comes to

decision making whether it acts on its own national interests or is out someone else's will. one where defrag. will have interview. him. i've just told one of the most influential organizations in germany i'm not talking about the government or german intelligence. or even the bundle. it's a nonprofit government american

a fund called the atlantic bridge. this is the bill in office a seemingly nondescript building with no signage on the outside but it's going to by the german police from whom. by the way just thirty paces away is the private apartment belonging to germany's madam johnsen. somehow i can't help feeling that this is where crucial decisions about german life are made. that's what i brushed off sounds like in germany.

i knew i had to look to the past if i wanted to find un says no. it all goes back to the time when off to world war two the victors was shaping the future of europe and germany. the one remaining witness to those historic events that i was able to make contact with. now lives in moscow is a good thing. because. i knew i needed. don't explode school your money you know nobody in the movement going to his gig never mind you got. valentyn found one of the ideologists behind go push ups go to strike up jump agree unification. he was still

a young diplomat after world war two when he and a group of colleagues prepared analytical reports on germany for stalin's successes . we're going to news groups. who should your musky with a better. story you who you're most cooper only presume want it's pretty silly thing that the police think instead of wanted me to know it was appreciate the truth is you know do you have to be seen to be here when you saw him do this. could he scream. it was in march nineteen fifty two that stalin drew up his famous note. good morning edition it's made in the art of me in a pretty immediate instant your mind you only shared stuck with me because the need for secrecy garth is a boon to style in the world to those of us on the board torture fi bickel in this because of the. blood test of this government here but this.

is what they call social supports bombs. were both can go to a member of the bundestag. no other man they're pretty sure if if a bit and see a bit of out of it all it's as i get tired of this thought of my torso on have these on the board scoffs with good reason it's fine it was intentional and bush in shadow. of the desert said he had feet. but why would the members of the un to his look elation so opposed to the unification of germany with a neutral and known alliance status just like its neighbor austria. because. when you might be needing your money of computing more to be a very good thing for you three of. the your money people are going to continue. with i mean you've gone through the thirty year money we're in ukraine even within

you we've got to with various things. like. this. in the first time. this map of germany clearly shows all foreign military bases spread across the entire country by the made nine hundred fifty s. germany had once again been turned into a military stronghold and the most militarized country in europe. american nuclear bombs recently being delivered here in rhineland france in the bucolic embrace. this says ramstein the largest american military base outside the united states this is where natives european air force command post is based. in. afghanistan. and. often

had. a lot of pressure and pleasure of war as its own and. form a built site a newspaper is a freelance journalist no but fleischer has conducted an independent investigation into the legitimacy of operations carried out to graham's dyna base on german soil he even made a film about it. he says. that's the i'm not a comma in the name. of the. so

possum because he did not jewish. columnist move on and if you can get outside. it's minds i. know but was told by german police officers that the german government also trends for the road that leads to the base directly to american sovereignty. on the ship itself was to be cool. during the investigation. before my teacher who lives near the ramstein base. as an antiwar activist young has been working to have the base shut down. he realized of course the protest wouldn't help so he took the fight to the court. and

he sued the government. and sons and didn't is to ask us for bones on board and all of us thirty. two of them going because it's so i have. no idea. but the case was dismissed it turns out of a german citizen is not entitled to funnel such an action list because proof of the military base presents a threat to him plus a. left wing boost. alexandra noya is certain that the government knows very well what the americans are up to at the ramstein base in the i.d.f. it's a protestant and when this was the only time the peak of the folks who won the on the start for us only caught off a tour of

a few missed their own goddess to attend it was some one hundred just so it's a few industry i took off last in was that so every person does it's got on board. who is expanding to the east american generals a drinking buddy. into new. they can talk to exercises close to russia's border you need to propagation like that. when it comes to national defense there is no consensus in german society. your post is from us and it was so and so not on so many coniston pozen on them to constantly have often office important i do feel like a shameful mob who want to be the police this is the essence of most of the meetings will dog shit as the two fives on those lights in school does not cool

him as one communications team and it will as well as off the titles booted off of and if so what is good is that this one who just wants to ride over here who's. for the stuff that you should doc you're just so lukewarm on the cause it's you or do. not call list you fought emotions. in potsdam we spoke to members of the alternative for germany parliamentary group. we talked about those role as america's instrument of influence of the german politics . the most. those diffidence young musicians is almost on this novel as i do this but this doesn't stick by the dusty novel the devil even. does even if. he just does. that in the movie the mood on the

phone with. us from tim in view but not to. believe this football is the best for me with the unpleasant you know that it was that isn't. it seems most. of the reason to dislike this stuff. to colin is still exist. ricos treated as one. hundred forty three cool. and i knew a lot of. the island is controlled by the us government and some puerto ricans crave independence jello it was you know it was getting about on a global. either we. were taking again way in the last year

obviously. still many do wish to join the us hundreds more leave every day. but i'm a long way from mania. beings. with the country at a crossroads anger on the island is on the rise.

in the us a child can choose a school. with his teachers we don't. recruit we'll sisters if the cadet is interested in going in the military we don't recruit ourselves. the pentagon is funding a program to boost interest in the military among teenagers. to step up to. the ball with yourself. you can't go wrong with the military it's a great stepping stone for whatever career you want to do but some veterans are willing to tell enthusiastic children a little more they ask me call of duty is a very popular first year video game. it's played. like call of duty turn off call of duty oh yeah well you can turn up for these kids just don't hear. the darker

side does the pentagon allow them to be told or does it just need more recruits. in one nine hundred ninety the usa u.k. france and the us as ashleigh signed the final settlement treaty on germany it was reunified and regain full sovereignty. that's when germany could have demanded the withdrawal of all foreign troops it could even have quit nato will together but germany didn't take that shot only the russians withdrew. be on the hands of a purpose so that all thoughts of civil war to coordinate. boiling . christian velma philosopher and columnist. with all their interests.

in the two thought us all some fairly quickly fits it. was in the business. scene those tickets were so. he becomes a nice little in atlantic. everyone i've spoken to agrees. despite the federal republic of germany always being the u.s.a.'s most loyal ally after reunification and came on to even tougher control. in much nine hundred ninety nine germany invaded another country for the first time since the right. was no un sanction and in violation of its own constitution it took part in nato as war against yugoslavia.

in. involved by the us down by one. goes those him with order to get a place from it was not from within the loss of it when buffy all throughout. believe x. but just like member form a german secretary of state for defense vice president of the o.e.c.d. they was lobbying clique just moved them up laws doesn't look quite good see one also lets out a. gun in the money and i'm like honest was the bin laden. was lobbying clique been out in clumps a bit time to get to because he was always good to me but this. is so they know it will come simple some just. need to make decent. interest at this least for the if he does it week to those in the middle of

miter with you for this nice indeed with all the fight is still chum and run pretty to try to. take no hold on him only guns from the emphasis to the creek the local food for the bottle and no hole polish. does for fun un cle going in on no good and him i want to go to. and didn't get rid of this country from. good this good dish from turkey then yeah from you on iraq yeah. simple enough going to. do just. d.v.m. it creaks pretty kinds of people to squeeze your. food off. their fruits whatever that doesn't. change anything.

either. come on my orders coalition forces began striking select our military ports. in two thousand and two when the bush administration was only planning its military incursion into iraq chancellor schroeder said germany will not be part of this war which means that nato forces cannot be used. as position was supported by france's president chirac he was joined by russian president putin those have a veto in the un security council bush was furious spiegel magazine quoted the us ambassador to jump.

the christian democratic group in the bluntest on puts pressure on schroeder. germany support the military incursion into iraq. still leading the opposition flies to the us. in the washington post. bush defiantly severed all ties with schroeder washington considered introducing sanctions against france and germany but what caused the greatest concern at washington was an alliance between france germany and russia. to frequent meetings between the three leaders along with plans to create a consolidated eurasian space stretching from the atlantic to the pacific oceans.

as i've come for you with. those. those months were p. and even of us who was good and that's if you can go on but this is will smith for herself has a school smit. those who both he could have he didn't if if he'd never had it in both and then she didn't get on then well this goes europeans who lived through the twentieth century a few years ago thirties former director of the stratford private intelligence and litigation seen working for the us intelligence and the department of state george friedman made a stunning admission for the united states to primordial fears of german technology cermak capital russian natural resources russian as the only combination that has for centuries skitt how the united states. that revelation should have provoked discussion in both german political circles and the mass media however no one seemed to notice. when given to one of i can learn

as how does. giving this money does often exist but if. on view is that what your own does money not all and a few all would fall under the bush team and leave it. to most germans america is their savior protect and best friend it's the pillar of freedom and democracy several generations of f.l.g. citizens have clung to that view for some time. was only a connaught. sucking from. one to watch laundromats old world often not in doubt but some form of quit away under boredom because of boredom this all stole a scam to beat up all common ones a lot on the floor indeed don't you both suffer and you don't support any dots media not shuffling and so booking you would sooner list on salon it was the

daughter somebody from was squished in the political office the first time. media. influence including atlantic bridge and military bases spread throughout all of germany. pretty. useful. to you calling for your. network. some of the studies at the free university of.

this and. all that. other deems it is. for me. to build from that's. all your. any sort of faith in the. basic. anything he said. in. germany has a wonderful culture and a rich history but after world war two we still find it incredibly hard to talk about the national pride. i suppose that all germans really want is peace unity

justice and freedom. you don't leave universal basic income when you have an economy around the world that rewards imagination and monetizes free thought free thought free movement of capital and all those intermediary forces go out of business a lot of bankers lose their jobs a lot of politicians lose their job the nation state collapses as we know it and people are as free as their money because right now money is a lot freer than people. made he's not even go there are plenty of oil because of the nuclear know no genes

new energy sources so how can you invests into the difference in the normal g.'s is a very important thing for the governments who produce so should do. it is one of the basic instruments to drive an economy but it can also lead to tragedy i did i took a line just i came to god and meant that the debts thai came and it was foreign not . many lives have been broken really excessive to the banks going to. big bankers go big. or go. to banks but i just didn't think of the. last morning through the back. creditors people see no future bad face and how you can become ill you due to job your relationship breaks down you become a casualty is a lifelong trauma or is there a way out of those actually trying to

a bit of you know would be right to ditch been for. a few more. we discussed the. recent polls. the media fueling some of. the. interview with.
