#2 Did they have a manifesto?
Was this impromptu reaction to the likely freezing winter and lack of fuel to keep people warm? Or the likely upcoming foot shortage?

If you are going to build an army you create a mercenary group and you train and fight wars in Africa and the middle east until you are ready. You don't train in Europe or the US, that's daft.

#3 Well, they're German. So at least they had a plan beyond taking selfies on a politician's desk.

#5 Well, this does appear to be a global template and that's our epitaph. Socialism is a global movement and there is no credible global movement to oppose them. This is a very recent development and it will fall to future historians (if such a thing is ever allowed again) to parse out how this all happened.

#6 and it will fall to future historians (if such a thing is ever allowed again) to parse out how this all happened.

That 'history' has already been written by our elites Rex, and you better not question it.

#10 Who is Heinrich XIII? Aristocrat, 71, 'behind far-right plot to overthrow German government' has called for a return of the monarchy... but his family say he’s 'a confused old man caught up in conspiracy theories'
[Daily Mail] Heinrich is a descendant of the House of Reuss - a noble family who ruled a part of imperial Germany - and has called for a return to a monarchical state
