1. Roland Berger (age 86) has been an adviser to the German authorities going back over five decades. He gave an interview....covering the view of Chancellor Scholz. His suggestion? Scholz is a procrastinator and consumes a significant amount of time to reach any decision. Yeah, he said it in a critical fashion.
2. This Prague shooting? 14 dead and several dozen wounded....was in the university part of town. No suggestion of motive. Shooter is dead. One journalist reviewing guy's history....was a student, and known for being a bit of a nutcase.
3. It's been blasted on German news....during this meeting of Biden and Xi in SF from a couple of weeks ago....apparently Xi was blunt in saying a invasion of Taiwan would come, with unification being the end-result.
Yeah, it's hyped-up and worrying some political folks that this would come while the US is concerned over the Ukraine and Israel. If you paid attention in the past week....a fair amount of US naval strength will be used near the Red Sea because of Yemen threats on shipping.
4. Some poll done by WELT says that roughly 40-percent of Germans anticipate 2024 will only mean a worse economical year for their lives. Pretty bad affect on politics, if true.
