Opinion by David Von Drehle: After 77 years in timeout, Germany is crucial to the fascist resistance
Given Germany’s history, the enthusiasm among Western allies for these steps was striking. Anyone wondering how long Germany would be stigmatized by its Nazi past now has the answer. Let’s hope that 77 years in timeout is enough to teach a durable lesson. For now, the West can no longer afford to neuter Germany — not when a new dictator is attempting his own nationalist blitzkrieg.But military spending is the easy part.
Thus a strong, resolute — and tough — Germany is essential to the fight against Putin. Fascist nationalism, the same madness that made a pariah of Germany, is loose again in Europe, this time calling Germany back to battle. Behold the strange and circular workings of history.
