Because that is the role of politicians.

Example 1930's Berlin. Didnt go so well for the entire world.

No, but Arabs are a white race.

I've not seen any,

those committing violence have admitted they cannot win the debate.

BB, as talented artist, can handle the graphic design.

There is a difference between left and right, and that difference is evil vs good.

....As ugly as these comments are, as much as they cross boundaries and deliberately escalate, perhaps some of the violent reactions-the search for culprits, the frenzied accusations, the lashing out-are partly explainable just hours after a person's murder. Nevertheless, the left would have reason to react with outrage to this madness, loudly and accusatorily. As it often does.

But most of it remains unanswered. No outrage at Trump, no outcry over the escalation of the right. Instead: grief. The dominant theme is not that Trump is adding fuel to the fire, even though, as president, he has a duty to calm the country. The dominant theme is loss. The shock. And the conviction that even in a deeply polarized society, a political opponent must not be dehumanized.

Anyone who listens to the left during these hours realizes that they are not only mourning Charlie Kirk. They are mourning something bigger, something that includes themselves. This attack wasn't just directed at a right-wing activist. It seems like an attack on freedom of speech, on democracy itself. And the reactions also reflect despair, the suspicion that something important to everyone could be lost.
What happened on the campus in Utah, where Kirk, like everywhere else in the country, was debating with students who think differently, was a paradigm that belongs to the heart of every democracy: A person stands in a public space, in the open air, in front of others, and speaks. From the agora in ancient Athens to Hyde Park in London to the election campaign in provincial Germany: politics thrives on the public word. If that word is no longer safe, if speaking itself becomes dangerous, then not only does political culture collapse. Who, asks conservative commentator Ben Shapiro in his podcast, will even dare to go to a political rally after the attempted assassinations of Trump and the murder of Charlie Kirk?

And yet perhaps there is consolation in the realization that the vast majority, across all camps, believe what Charlie Kirk also believed: that political debate is conducted with words. Not with weapons.

There's a drone alert in Poland - and in London, a German company is receiving a growing number of inquiries for a new air defense system! The DSEI UK arms fair in London - THE industry meeting place, and the ultimate weapons show. Also present: the German arms giant Rheinmetall.

The company declined to comment on business deals or inquiries. But BILD knows: After the attack by almost 20 Russian drones over Poland, of which only three or four were intercepted, there is nervousness. In Poland, too.....

....Poland immediately inquired

And: As observed at the trade fair, Poland contacted Rheinmetall immediately after the drone attack, requesting its Skyranger system. The first systems are now being delivered to Ukraine, where the predecessor air defense systems are already in use.

EU and NATO countries - including Romania and Hungary - have already placed orders. Germany also placed a large order - and desperately needed it: After all, the air defense system was disbanded in 2010 - one reason why Germany was able to provide Ukraine with a massive supply of the Gepard anti-aircraft vehicle. The Gepard is considered extremely successful in defending against Russian drones in Ukraine...

...Drone completion much cheaper

Now, Skyranger. It's considered a relatively inexpensive solution for defending larger areas against drones and other air attacks. The ammunition is fired from cannons - although programmable, unlike expensive systems, it's not self-guided - and therefore cheaper.

1939.

putin himself is a deeply stupid and shallow.... person.

Maybe Putin's cunning plan,

In true Israeli fashion -

because it was mainly the Dutch F-35 that shot down the drones!

....F-35s against drones "do not make sense"

The F-35 fighter pilots attacked the drones with AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles. The problem: Firing a missile costs more than 400,000 euros - for a drone that costs just a few thousand euros.

A senior NATO officer told BILD: "In the long run, it makes no military sense to use the F-35 against drones." Therefore, according to BILD information, the alliance is examining various options to counter Russian provocations....

It also is likely though that RuSSia was testing Polish and NATO defences.
