The War ended a century ago , why do you want to keep fighting it ?Germany has no place in WW1 ceremony for 'winners'- far-right leader | Daily Mail Online
German Chancellor Angela Merkel should not have taken part in a ceremony in France on Sunday marking the centenary of the Armistice as it is an event for the 'winners' of World War One, said the leader of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD).
Germany lost the war and Merkel's participation in a ceremony for the former allies amounted to an attempt to rewrite history, AfD co-leader Alexander Gauland said.
'We can't put ourselves in a historical situation that clearly favours the winner and walk alongside Mr. Macron through the Arc de Triomphe,' he said, referring to the famous Paris monument.
What a dick. Here is the perfect example of the essentally flawed right wing mentality.
Is there anyone on Planet Normal who views these events as some kind of triumphalism ?
There were no winners ya stupid nazi fuck.
It’s absolutely true that having Germany there at the ceremonies is an insult. Germans introduced chemical warfare in WWI which brought much misery and death to Brits on the front lines. Even today the Germans celebrate the German scientist that headed the chemical warfare program by naming streets after him.
But hey, President Trump has to cancel a helicopter flight due to rain and that’s a bigger insult than the Germans who brought so much misery to Allied soldiers by wonderful weapons like chlorine and mustard gas.
