Germany joining in with an attack on Syrians/Russians/Iranians in Idlib is a very curious story. And it gets curioser and curioser.
In the German language newspaper Deutsche Wirtsshafts (but not reported by our Western media that I could see -- and I looked, albeit not extensively), is an article headlined: "Merkel supports Russian military action in Syria" (HERE). This article report follows on from the recent meeting between Putin and Merkel.
Yesterday, an article on the World Socialist Web Site (HERE) reports following a meeting between Russia, Turkey, Germany and France, that Russia has decided to postpone its assault on Idlib. This has followed unprecedented and crazed threats from Washington that it would militarily intervene in a big way should Russia, Syria and Iran go ahead with their plans to take the last remaining Jihadi stronghold at Idlib irrespective of a whether a chemical false flag provocation occurs or not.
It seems that the US neocon war-mongers saw the writing on the wall regarding the planned White Helmets staged / faked gas attack (no one believes them anymore) and instead created a new red line overnight. In other words, Washington de facto set the scene for WWII and backed itself in to a corner for a potential nuclear exchange.
My take based upon what little I know is that Merkel and Macron sought to convince Putin to find an alternative and that he, sensibly given the situation, has agreed to do so. It might all come down to the mid-terms.
At least there are still some adults in the room.
But the basic take-away is that the US neocon/neoliberal ideologues clearly are utterly mad and would rather face a world war than lose their hegemony. But lose it they will anyway. It's only a matter of time before the US dollar crashes and burns (imo) and then spinning plates all come crashing down at more or less the same time.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
