  1. it's suuuuch a small 'risk'. I'd argue there is no negative risk, it's extremely lopsided risk/reward in favor of all reward! They are acting schizophrenic, ie split. They have been protected w/the Nato/US security system for the past 80 yrs, and now they are pretending as if they are trying to be 'reasoned' and giving Ru a bunch of extra chances to slow down its genocide? It makes no sense. It has all the hallmarks of cognitive faults, cognitive dissonance even perhaps. Many factors go into the calculus that makes most Nato members want much heavier and better equip to get into Ukr hands. Just one factor is that Ru CAN be prevailed against, Ukr CAN actually work hard enough against Ru aggression to restore the international order. Without that international order, there is no germany as it's been known, ie successful economically. Many of us have studied a lot of history, econ, geography, sociology, anthroplogy, psychology, and even a bit about russian history, etc. I personally studied a lot about the cold war during it, and immediately after it. Germany is hesitating right now during the final two weeks left to start the two months process it takes to get heavy equip into Ukr hands. Biggest single mistake in modern germany's history, and it will not be forgiven by us yanks, that's for damn sure. Only Leapords will do the job. Abrams/american are useless with its hightech jet fuel propulsion. KISS (keep it simple stupid)

  2.  @incognitotorpedo42  indeed, crystal friggin clear. The russian style of b.s. is naturally profoundly obvious, the west learned all about it during the Cold War. Do ya'll remember that Kruschev banged his shoe on the podium at the U.N. iirc? Ffs. ppl, Ru is a warlord state at this point, by definition, as seen w/ how Wagner became essential, and the infighting between Wagner and various Ru military establishment leaders, and the "war bloggers" who literally have power in Ru. We're talking about a country that is by definition not stable right now, and both CAN and must be prevailed against. If germany does not allow the Leapord tanks to go to Ukr, this war will be ongoing and then in four yrs, it will certainly be a war with direct Nato engagement. Many ppl forget that former West Germany didn't really succeed at all in holding important Nazi leaders accountable after ww2. Germany has had issues w/ facing facts directly. It's has success in that regard, especialy finally in the early 1970's. But overall, it failed to entirely deal w/ its nazi past. Sociologically that is perhaps why it's effing up right now, when the clearest thinking is required. Again, many of us yanks are repulsed by the german sentiment right now, and we will not forgive it.
