Brits and Wops. With tokens from other useless NATO members.

Would it kill the Krauts to send a couple panzer divisions & maybe paint palm trees on their vehicles.  They can replace the swastika with a happy face if they want.

Yeah, that guy.  OMG is he still alive? :o

I'm sure there are plenty who can fill in.  I know that footage is supposed to evoke sympathy but it sort of has the opposite effect on me :ph34r:

FWIW, they usually show that as a reaction to the Krauts parading in Paris, but I read somewhere recently where the dude was in Toulon watching French troops embark for North Africa in 1940.

They tried that in Afghanistan, the left wingers went apeshit (the palm tree had a iron cross, instead of a swastika)...

On paper it looks like they have two (which is sad-- they had 6 during the cold war).  But they could have a bunch of understrength panzer divisions if they wanted.

But I'm sure even lefties could appreciate the history-repeating splendor of such a sight in Libya :P

Why is that sad?  Does Germany need 6 panzer divisions?  Do they even need two?
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Well it's not like the Third Shock Army's gonna be rolling through the Fulda Gap.  As well all know the Germans are more in danger from the nascent Islamisit Caliphate which they are incubating in their vast immigrant slums. 
PDH!

Ok, so they can deploy a panzer division.  Can they also deploy: fallschirmjagers :cool:

Will they try to recapture their glory days of old by: invading Crete?
