1. History rhyming in the most surreal way possible

2. The germans would know a thing or two about Kursk wouldnt they

3. >”It must be in the interest of Russia and the Russians to stop the war of aggression. One can only wish the Ukrainian defenders every success, including at Kursk. **The more successful they are, the sooner the Kremlin will understand that there is nothing to be gained in Ukraine. This and only this can lead to a change of mind of the aggressor**,” Faber said.

   >He noted that Ukraine can stop Putin’s war of aggression by sending the invading troops home. This has already been achieved in half of the occupied territories. **Faber also emphasized the need to transfer more ammunition and artillery to Ukraine, as well as longer-range weapons, such as the German Taurus missiles.**

   >Faber told the WAZ news outlet that he sees no problems in the Ukrainians’ use of the armored vehicles transferred by Germany.

   >”**This is already Ukrainian weapons. This applies to all equipment, including Leopard 2s**,” the politician said.

   He 100% nailed it.

   > Marcus Faber, chair of the defense committee in the German Bundestag, has said he does not see any problems with the Ukrainian Armed Forces using German-provided weapons in Russia's Kursk region.

   > "Whoever starts a war of aggression against their neighboring country also turns their own territory into a war zone. Ukraine's attack on Kursk is completely legitimate and makes military sense," the parliamentarian wrote.

6. I wish we could have given Ukraine more.

   I bet this offensive operation could really use more tanks

   and especially those skyranger tanks they’re supposed to get in the future

   also more self propelled artillery

   also more anti air missile systems

   also the cruise missile that shall not be named

   Does he have final say though?

   Who are the Russian assets holding up Ukraine’s use of German weapons in Russia?
