Kraut, unkraut
France and Poland are finally going to get some reparations from the Krauts, and it will be real money this time, not Weimar wheelbarrow money!
Germany has been fully stupefied by the Gaians, and has
decided to eliminate nuclear power quickly. The Krauts have already been short on electricity, and have been buying reliable clean nuclear power from France. Now that Gaia forbids them to generate any electricity at all, they'll have to buy even more nuke power from France and coal power from Poland.
Maybe France can build a new Maginot Line of reactors along the Kraut border. Convenient to the grid and perfectly impregnable, because the primitive superstitious Teutons will be afraid to get anywhere near the reactors.
Even more delicious is today's news item: The Krauts are
suffering real death and disease from E Coli contained in
ORGANIC vegetables from Spain.
Avoid nukes, eat only organic produce. Appease the mighty Planet Goddess by dying like Haitians.
Maybe Jehovah is still in the fight after all.

Sidenote: This matches up with
Polistra's recent comment on the connection between public health and 'democracy'.
When public health authorities go to work in a primitive country, one of their first steps is to eliminate the use of sewage as fertilizer. Gaia insists on returning to primitive use of sewage as fertilizer. Guaranteed E Coli trouble. In this case the 'democracies' of EU are so firmly locked into suicidal Free Trade and suicidal Gaian Orthodoxy that they refuse to follow normal public health procedures. Russia, which makes no pretense of 'democracy', has banned all imports of the infected vegetables. Russians are safe because Russia is not 'democratic'.

Later: Apparently the Krauts have decided Spanish cucumbers weren't the culprits, but they haven't yet found the real infector. Meanwhile, Spanish officials pulled a well-intentioned but unfortunate PR stunt:
This lady is the Agriculture Minister of Andalusia province, and she's attempting to demonstrate the safety of their vegetables. A little more thought could have produced a far more persuasive picture. Face it, nobody wants to see a middle-aged lady eating a cucumber, and the Hazmat gear doesn't exactly shout "We know this field is a wonderfully clean place!" Take off the medical suits and have a pretty girl eat the cucumber.
