As officials in the country express their fears about future gas riots this winter, the German government has announced a host of new energy rationing rules that will come into effect from next Thursday.
In what appears to be the latest attempt to avoid energy shortages this winter, the German government is to implement restrictions limiting the use of energy in the country.
Ministers appear to be hoping that the rationing efforts will help reduce the risk of energy shortages this coming winter, with a number of bigwigs now openly fearful of a future of public unrest and gas riots should people be left unable to adequately heat their homes.

FTA - "Despite this, officials still appear to be adamant that the country’s remaining nuclear reactors will be turned off by next January in service of the green agenda..."
So let me get this straight - the russkies have cutoff natural gas supplies to Germany and the citizenry will be spending the winter freezing in the dark. And then the German government concludes that it must also go ahead and shut down its nuclear generation plants.
What am I missing here. What part of stupid is this, the "stu" or the "pid". Widespread civil unrest and rioting will be happening.

Germany produced some of the greatest geniuses of the Western world, but it also came up with some of the most incredible dumkoffs to run the country.

During WWII, there were those who thought that maybe Germany should be wiped off the face of the earth for the stunts the Nazis pulled. Now, they might do it to themselves, freezing to death in the dark.

And they will TURN OFF their nuclear power plants. Beyond insane into willful evil. How do the Germans let this continue?
Or are the Germans so totally propagandized that they don't recognize how nuclear power is the cleanest power on the planet?

Looks like it is going to be a long cold winter too. Got down to 45F this morning here in South Central New Mexico.

Trump warned them about depending on Russia and they smirked.

Schlotz has about the same percentage of support as Hitler ever had, about 33% of the German population. Germany has gone to splot, and no longer deserves any respect.

German citizens with means probably won’t turn down home thermostats. But mandatory “smart” thermostats are likely included in the ruling class 5-10 year plan. The rationing this winter is phase one of an energy use crackdown. Coming to a country near you.

German diplomats were laughing at Trump when he spoke before the U.N. General Assembly, warning them of reliance upon Russian oil. Now I laugh every time I read one of these stories. Sounds like the Deutsche winter is looking like Stalingrad II. Enjoy it, Fritz.

Re #5, in eastern KS it is normally upper 90s to low 100s in August. For two weeks now it has been a wonderful low 80s for highs, mid 70s for morning temps. Wonderful now....but probably presaging a very cold winter.

I remember Donald J. Trump warning NATO Secretary General of NATO, Stoltenberger, about the danger of depending on Russia for their energy supply. Behind Stoltenberger was a group of smug German diplomats snickering and laughing.

Germans, for all their engineering expertise, now show how conditioned they are to obedience.

Why don't the fire-up the nuclear plants they shut down? It wasn't too smart of them to do it in the first place. Russia and Germany have fought off and on for hundreds of years. Not too smart to be dependent upon any nation but your own. We have done the same stupid thing and I blame it on the so called geniuses from the Ivy league schools. Obviously, none of them ever learned what happened to us us during WWII when we could import nothing. Why set yourself up for a problem?

You're not missing a thing #1. 'Green' has become a 'religion'. It requires NOTHING from the
believer beyond faith. It requires no proof or reason or purpose. The faith if fed by the
continuous world wide drum beat of a brain washed mass media.
