German army declares itself rooted in the “traditions” of Hitler’s Wehrmacht

Despite the unspeakable crimes top Nazi officers committed during the Second World War, it hails them as “role models” and “heroes,” as the German ruling class once again prepares to wage war against Russia. Its purpose in so doing, the text states, is to “name examples that create tradition, strengthen identification and, as a result, increase the operational value of units and formations of the respective organisational area.”

The turning point triggered by Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, which violates international law, has increased the importance of the war readiness of the armed forces, which is largely derived from a high operational value and high combat effectiveness, also for the cultivation of traditions.
This turns reality on its head. In reality, it was the NATO powers who deliberately provoked Putin’s reactionary invasion of Ukraine in order to massively rearm Germany and realise long-held war plans. German imperialism, which had already attempted to annex Ukraine and defeat Russia militarily during the First and Second World Wars, is playing a leading role in the war offensive against Russia.

In other words, as it has become more and more obvious as the past few years have gone by. As capitalism falls further into despair, and a potential collapse, history is repeating itself and turning solely onto fascism for a rebound. Ground zero of the ideology puppet countries are again being boasted and supported into action. This time, will it be Germany coming to aid Ukraine?
