Five German News Stories

 1.  N-24 news (commercially run) in Germany....did a pretty decent report on the threat of fallout if a Russian tactical nuke is used in the Ukraine, with Marian Grunden (editor) producing it.  Fallout radius?  Roughly 100 km.  

2.  Germany has apparently around 800 million masks that were acquired in 2020 for Covid (via government screw-ups on quality) and are in some form of dispersal.  Strong hint that they are 'expired' as well.  

3.  The German Federal Foreign Office has ordered Germans to leave Iran.....suggesting that things are deteriorating.

4.  Firewood in Germany is now selling for 240 Euro per square meter.  Currently, regarded as the cheapest method of heating a home.

5.  ARD (public TV, Channel One) went and did a summer 1972 Olympics 'special' (four episodes) going into detail about the terror attack.  I would suggest that a lot of Germans (even in their 70s) had forgotten the event.  So this issue has popped up.  A surviving terrorist from the era was interviewed for the show, and paid 2,000 Euro for their 'contribution'.  

In the interviews after this special....the same guy has said bluntly that if given a chance to kill Jews....he'd do it again.

Naturally, lot of negative feelings about the 2,000 Euro going out to the guy and his commentary.  Another negative for the network.
