Zero Hedge: Mapping The World's Top Countries For Military Spending 

By practically any measure, the world today is more peaceful and less war-torn on a global scale, relative to the past.

Germany spends almost as much as Russia

Do not be fooled. Germany would be overrun in 2 weeks if Russia wanted to (US defense aside)

The west is brought down by the corruption among its ruling class

Billions lost every year, in the US going mostly to the demonic left, who sold you out to China, who destroyed your infrastructure

Open your eyes!

What the 1st two commenters said ^^^^

Talking heads always talk about US defense spending. Got it. DDSS. But, I note that China is 1/3rd of the US and growing. That is of concern.

Germany, France, Britain (Can you still call it Britain?) and Saudi Arabia spend in the same neighborhood as Russia. France and Britain run nuclear subs and carriers. Those are big ticket, expensive items. Germany has non of that. Yet, Germany has ground ships, grounded planes and soldiers literally with broomsticks.

WNU has pointed out that Germany has a procurement problem. Something is wrong with Germany and 15.5 years of Merkel has not fixed it.
