I've noticed that in both Belgium and The Netherlands there has been an increase in war talk lately, saying how we need more military personnel and that we need to be wary of Russia. I've seen some British articles about it too.

Now, I hope it is purely coincidental otherwise I'd have to get worried about EU+UK being complete idiots and preparing for war.

Germany is discussing reintroducing the military service requirement.

The German defense minister is clearly saying that Germans must prepare for war, not just in the material sense of getting the Bundeswehr into fighting shape but in the socio-political sense of "the government and military can't go to war if the people are against it, and the government damn well wants to go to war so we better get the propaganda rolling."

It's a scary time to be alive.

Well it's not just a coincidence then it seems, because the same talks are happening in other countries. They must have decided something behind the scenes.

Yes: the Ukraine mess proved America that proxy wars are very profitable. It doesn't matter who wins as long as they make money, so now they want the whole Europe to fight Russia. The EU will comply because it's a puppet of USA, so we are very very fucked.
