Sorry - I was referring to Ukraine - that’s probably more southeast.

I do believe that ww1 and ww2 showed your warmongering side - and sending weapons into Israel so they can bomb kids are not much more honourable

Germany is the second largest contributor of military aid to Ukraine. There are other "wamongering tribes" that seem to send much less.

Very good and smart of them. I may not have paid enough attention- all I’ve seen is that they don’t want to provoke Putin with long range weapons.

Also it would be nice to see those numbers compared to gdp
