Good lord, I'm guessing the Right Wing freaks in Germany just love that there is cooperation with Israel. Good way to be on the wrong side of history, you should be shunning Israel until they negotiate a Palestinian State.
You shouldn’t buying anything from Israel
Ah war crimes were committed. Let's fund them as soon as possible.
Arms race with Russia? Russia is already in an arms race with Ukraine, and they are at the limits of their capacity. Russia has no more capability to expand their arms race, they are already going all out.
Cooperation with Israel, and buying Israeli profucts is complicity to being a partner in the genocide in Palestine.
Do not spend EU funds on this projects.
Your partners should be European or other NATO allies.
Germany needs to examine Brahmos ER from India before decision making.
Wow ,hyper advanced israeli weapons,good for European countries.
Oh, Germany going nuclear? Delivery first is smart, you don't want to announce the bomb first and then depend on commercial flights to Russia. But not sure it will lead to peace.
The Western bloc must be capable of defending itself. It has much worth protecting and all the resources it needs to strengthen its defences.
Not comprehensible 60-80 years ago.
Should have been done 3 years ago
Israeli 😂😂😂
Germany will be Orthodox like Holy Rus
Germany borrowing missiles from the tiny Israel?
This is one of the reasons the US used to maintain large forces in Europe was to help protect Europe from Russia screwing around till donnie screwed everything up
Nations started wasting money on weapons again… instead of tackling cancer and well-being of people…
Good news!
Germany has dragged its feet long enough with pulling its weight in European security 👍👍
Depending on Israeli missiles. They can't be serious. Considering where the likely threat comes from there's zero chance they can secure this supply chain during war
Controversy around using Israeli military tech? Why? Outside of America, Israel has arguably the best advanced military tech in the world. Maybe Ukraine in the specific realm of drones is getting there, but I'd still lean toward Israel even in advanced drone tech.
wars are created to sell weapons
It looks like a WW2 V-2 Rocket, which is probably what they thought a missile should look like. It's head is also very "Pointy"🎉🎉🎉
All that hamas did 7 october just for a few hours, jewish did first for so many years.
Germany old Euro Fighter to be replaced with American Lockheed/Martin F-35a. – LOL.
Jesus 🤔 ISRAEL helping Germany to Attack other countries that's not defence. Don't cry wolf 🐺 when Germany goes bad again.
😮
Germany also supports genocide
There are no true good guys or bad guys in today's world…. It's all transactional…. It's private equity. National and transcontinental, Tech complex, industrial military complex…on and on middle countries are pawns in the bigger world powers games. Back to a colonial imperialism's strategy. Resources top of mind.
Smart move Germany Israeli defense industry can change the global power structure imagine VW Audi and Israeli IAI building weapons it will be the beginning of the end for Chan and Russia global dominance!!
Hitlar turning in his grave…..
Hahaha. Buying weapons from a genocidal apartheid state. Germany is really going for broke.
🤔🍋
American watching from the U.S.-It seems to me that no NATO country has anything-serious-to worry about from Russia-it seems-to me-that-any-"attacks"-have much more to do with Putin trying-in some feeble effort to-"save-face"-with his domestic audience-& allies-like China-& North Korea-in the midst of a humiliating war with Ukraine-lasting longer than WWII-rather than to directly-draw in-NATO countries.
well well well
Only really confused people would buy a rocket in Israel for a price of 10 in China.
Hmm. Now the pro palestine clowns, are probably protest this, over the association Germano-Israeli.
😮It is too round on the top. It needs to be more pointy. Round is not scary. Pointy is scary. This will put a smile on the faces of the enemy. They will think that it is a huge robot dildo flying toward them.😂
Israel has one of the highest military technologies in the world. No wonder why US heavily favors Israel over other allies.
Question; How much of Eastern Germany is sympathetic to Russia after the fall of the wall?
On September 1, attackers used homemade devices to cause short circuits at an electrical substation in Brandenburg. Hours after Germany formally condemned Russia, a second substation was sabotaged, followed by an explosion near Augsburg’s main railway station.
shame it comes from Israel. Better to make your own. self reliance.
Germany Again…..
Politico? What a joke.
Should have been done 10 years ago when Russia took Crimea!
Well the secrets out now😂
It's a disgrace, to get off being over reliant on the number 1 war-crimes country we get reliant on number 2. Ukraine and iran producing highly effective weapons in their garages but Germany needs to buy from Israel.
Germany: ukraine how many you need?
Ukraine: Yes
That country is conducting atrocities like in the dark days of Germany. Shame on this collaboration.
Jist 1 thing to say ,dont fall in isreals trap 😂
Wow, Isreal missiles in technology capital of EU,
