www.zeit.de
As the U.S. turns its back on security commitments, Germany faces a profound shift in its post-war defense policy. Can it still rely on France and the UK?

Germany is at a crossroads when it comes to its security policy — one of the deepest upheavals of the post-War era.

    Literally no-one mentioned NATO before you, no-one referred to US protection specifically. Respond to the actual discussion, not the one in your head.

      This is an article about a potential German nuclear bomb. Germany is a NATO country which so far has been provided with US nukes within the framework of nuclear sharing. The only reason for the sudden ambitions for own nukes for Germany, but also eg Scandinavia, is directly linked to the apparent unreliability of Trump’s US in terms of said nuclear sharing and hence especially a concern for non-nuclear NATO members.

          1. You might want to work on your tone. Check rules 3 & 5.

          2. This is the discussion you chose to chime in on:

          Article titled: Is it Time for a German Nuclear Bomb?

          User A: Everyone seems so willing to break the Non Proliferation Treaty nowadays, it’s scary

          User B, citing Everyone seems so willing to break the Non Proliferation Treaty nowadays, it’s scary: Non-Proliferation is based on the promise of nuclear powers to defend those who don’t have nukes. Since this promise is out of the window thanks to Trump, proliferation is the logical consequence.

          To which you chose to add, citing this promise is out of the window thanks to Trump,:

          *George W Bush (and Israel in general).

          Given the topic of the article (Germany) and, as mentioned by User A, the currently emerging willingsness of everyone to break the Non Proliferation Treaty, I wonder where you see the connection to “George W Bush (and Israel in general)” rather than Trump’s actions that without a doubt are the source for these considerations in a country such as Germany, which, again, is the topic of this article. Maybe you can elaborate it a bit more.
