And if that wasn’t enough, a significant portion of bombs had a time delay trigger. They’d only explode once people left the bunkers an hour or 2 days after the bombing. However that delay was caused by a chemical reaction which pften failed, meaning a lot of the bombs are undetonated but active even now some 80 years later.

Europe@feddit.org•Women given free shorts at Oktoberfest to prevent upskirtingEnglish
41·7 days agoI am a subscriber of one of the largest German newspapers, arguably the most investigative daily newspaper in Germany. They are from Munich though, half of their news app is full of irrelevant Oktoberfest content at the moment - and I live as far away from Munich as one can live within German borders, I hate it

3·12 days agoTheir justice system is pretty archaic in a eye for an eye way. Interestingly criminology (the study of crimes including the effects of punishment) is most prominent in the USA yet has the least impact in their own country.
However the spiral is the same everywhere. A brutal crime is commited, as an easy answer (because solving underlying issues is unpopular and won’t garner votes) the sentences are made stricter. That however never helps

I think there’s also the layer that white wines that are good tend to be expressionate with unique expressive flavours. Red wines are generally more reserved and more settled and subtle. Their flavour does not show immidiatly but rather as you let it breath

Europe@feddit.org•Your Deutsche Bahn "joke" is no longer funny (if it ever was)English
111·12 days agoI think there really are two loud groups at work here. The first being people that know how the DB used to be (always on time whatever the weather, though this is also heavily influenced by rose-tinted glasses, survivor bias and nostalgia) and secondly people that like to hate on Germany (Germans that mostly hate modern Germany as they themselves are from 1933 and those that see the DB as an opportunity to smear some dirt on the label of German efficiency). Now I presume that, like with everything nowadays that is happening online, there’s a lot of propaganda and lobbying involved.
But to be fair, it is frustrating to be late when you have no influence on it. In the car at least you get the idea that you have some influence on your delay, false as that feeling may be.
The problem with the high workload of the train infrastructure is also one of the reasons for the amount of roadworks in Germany. Germany simply has the highest traffic in Europe overall. Partly because it is the largest economy, but also because it is located right the center of the EU. A lot of cross border traffic will cross Germany.

12·18 days agoLook, whether Russia actually tries attacking a NATO member or not depends on NATO’s ability to show it is unified and well prepared.
Russia is already testing our ability to defend ourselves. They regularily violate our airspace on purpose to see how long it takes for our response. They drop drones in the Baltic, fly a squadron of fighters into Estonia. They keep sabotaging and terrorising in NATO. They keep threatening us with nukes if we don’t immidiatly stop supplying arms to Ukraine. This is how they started in Ukraine prior to 2014’s incursion of “little green men”. If we aren’t ready, then I fear that a few “little green men” have their summer vacation in Estonia, Latvia or Lithuania. NATO doesn’t fear an outright attack. It fears a small scale attack by a Russia that believes we lack the cohesion and means to properly respond. One such small incursion would need to be properly met, that is why NATO needs to be well prepared.

At the risk of being downvoted to hell, none of what you said is necessarily exlusive towards the other. You can have a war between two countries with armed forces that could both be commiting genocide upon eachother or another people and commit even another entirely different war crime.
Hell war crimes are very diverse in intensity from each other. And I could be wrong here, I think genocide is technically not a war crime, but a crime against humanity.
