The World Is On The Move

Number 13 is a lucky number when not on a Friday. This day of July 2016 the German Government announced its ambition to engage foreign nationals into their Army wanting to play a bigger role on the international stage to shape and regulate history. Newly elected Prime Minister of Japan, Mr. Abe, had clearly expressed his wishes to change Japan’s constitution and send Military Personal into the world forbidden until now based on the role Japan played during World War II.

During World War II Japan was the last country to end its war activities being a close Allie to Nazi Germany only be stopped by two Atomic Bombs. Japan and Germany have traditionally close relationships based on identical characteristics like being on time, hardworking, very precise, honesty, well organized and alike making their spirits comparable in the light of cultural and historic differences.

Does this development come to anybody as a surprise considering that the Earth 100 years ago was in the middle of its 1^st ever experienced World War at a turning point to a peace process that changed the face of the world for ever leaving hundreds of years of political, social and traditional structures behind?

While Germany is the fourth riches country in the world, Japan is in position three. UK is the fifth riches country in the world while USA holds position number one. When USA is asking other countries to engage in military actions as world police officers, UK traditionally is standing close by while Germany has an independent view in respect to its western approach for which reason Gerhard Schroeder, former Chancellor of Germany, refused to send German soldiers into Iraq and took a different strategy to handle the Afghan crisis. While only USA soldiers were mandated to destroy the Poppy fields in Afghanistan to end the money supply to the Taliban and refused to do so, German soldiers had to stand frustrated at the side line seeing their comrades die in the bombings of the Taliban.

UK is leaving the European Union and re-definding its political and economic position in this world. Once Donald Trump becomes the next US President UK will no longer blindly follow the Americans into War but develop an independent and more distant relationship with the brother on the other side of the Atlantic.

Based on Adolf Hitler’s killings Israelis hate German Nazis while at the same time pay tribute to Germans for their economic Wirtschaftswunder to come out from Zero in 15 years’ time to be the richest country in Europe again; even the largest and mineral rich country on earth, Russia, has only reached position number 8 among the richest countries on earth.

The decision taken by the German Government is a significant game changer that is of great importance over time also for the African Continent. Germany, and in line with it to come, Japan will be a new important international power force with a different view on historic unfoldings. While USA is interested in the demonstration of Power to dominate the world and bring it under its feet, Germany and Japan have a more philosophical approach to solve on a long term basis the violent problems of our times. Once these two forces are fully in place certainly other countries want to engage into their line of thinking and actions such as France, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Holland and others away from the dominance of USA and UK.

As China is traditionally a rival of Japan time will tell in which direction this powerhouse will go as historically this country has not been engaged into military actions outside its region but certainly being very interested in the German position to be a counterpart to the USA and UK axle.

Once Japan will have changed its Constitution on the deployment of Tropes it is most likely that other Asian countries will follow to join hands with European Partners in thinking and acting on the international power stage leaving USA as a corpus of only a rich country between two great oceans politically meaningless with a sad look unto the past presented before world history except of two short intervals.

The decision taken opens up the way for Germany to contribute more Soldiers to combat missions of the UN specifically on the African continent. Sending soldiers into conflict zones is a first step followed by civil engagement for as a much needed exist strategy. Once leaving behind tanks, weapons, soldiers (and their made babies during conflict times) humans bonds on a personal and political level will subsequently be established.

It is obvious to believe that the declared move will change, over time, the political, social and economic landscape of the world with great significance to Africa as the problem making continent number one. As Germany has a Professional Army and Foreign Nationals can apply to become German Soldiers (never seen in German History) it will become obvious that many young men from Africa will apply to become German soldiers bringing the values of Germany further more into the hearts and minds of Africans to improve their political and economic conditions.

Former President of Afghanistan, Hamid Karzai, was not known in his home country by many, but known to the American Administration and placed by the former US President G. W. Bush into his position working on their behalf.

This twist in history will have a great impact on the situation in African countries as it will influence the various societies on a hands-on and human like approach that makes European values very much be able to grap with bare hands wanting more and more of it to settle Africa in the end as a happy continent with happy people to prosper and usher it into the Black Stars of this world. Black people seeing the road ahead with wisdom will be able to take advantage of the upcoming process and design their road in life to handle their countries to the Glory of GOD after a transition period of learning to do the right things at the right time for the benefit of the fellow Africans.

To GOD be the Glory; He is great and all the time!
