Constanze Stelzenmüller writes with the authority of a practiced journalist/propagandist. While careful in avoiding the attack on the Nord Stream Pipeline, as reported by her colleague who places, in the most maladroit way, the Russians. As part of a necessary framework for her evaluation of German politics, yet this direct attack on German Sovereignty was an Act of War against an ally! That might cause political reverberations over time, does not occur to a Political Technocrat? Although an operative of an American financed Think Tank might operate as an apologist!
While ignoring Seymour Hersh expose:
A YEAR OF LYING ABOUT NORD STREAM

Nord Stream, The Pan-European ‘Farmers Strike’, the American fomented and financed War in Ukraine, the reverberations of the Israel’s Genocide, and the enforced Famine against the Palestinians, also frames her political commentary, by their utter absence: keeping in mind that propaganda is tailored to an audience of readers, listeners, viewers , in this case a Financial Times reader. Which is not say that her essay is not readable, informative and instructive to a point, excuse my tortured syntax! The final paragraph invokes ‘The West’, but it appears in lower case , the very diminution of what a proper noun is!
In truth, it is much too early to say whether any of these extreme parties will succeed. But their presence will render Germany volatile and unpredictable in a year of high-stakes politics across the west. It will also make forming coalitions, and governing, more difficult. That could play into the hands of the extremists. But Scholz’s unhappy coalition in Berlin could take encouragement from those cheerful marchers: Germany’s middle is silent no more.
