According to The New York Times, Vice President Omar Suleiman and top Egyptian military officials have been urging Mubarak to move to his home at the seaside resort of Sharm el-Sheikh or to go to Germany for his annual medical checkup on a one-way ticket to placate protestors.
Germany supplies significant amounts of weapons to Egypt and some have been used to crush protestors, including a water canon, according to a report by IRNA.
German MP Jan Van Aken said the Berlin government had not only ignored human right breaches in Egypt but ‘actively supported it through massive arms deliveries.’
From IRNA:
“German-made weapons are being used by the Mubarak regime to suppress the ongoing pro-democracy protests in Cairo, a senior German legislator of the opposition party The Left said on Thursday.
The deputy head of The Left faction, Jan van Aken said there were images and videos showing the deployment of water-cannons produced by the German MAN company.
Van Aken said total German arms sales to Egpyt since 2000 has reached more than 270 million euros, among them tanks, 1726 submachine guns and 606 rifles.
‘Whoever delivers arms to dictators is being an accomplice to the repression, censorship and human rights violations,’ according to the radical leftist lawmaker.
‘Although the federal (German) government was aware of severe human rights violations, it approved arms exports to Egypt year for year,’ the MP said.
Van Aken stressed Berlin had not only ignored human right breaches in Egypt but ‘actively supported it through massive arms deliveries.’

There is every indication that Germany is again positioning itself as the leader of Europe not only through the Lisbon treaty but also economically, technologically, militarily and in every other sense as well. Can we see another horrendous Holy Roman empire arising from the ashes of the Weimar republic and the iron curtain. Do we see a new monster developing that will deploy it’s forces aggressively to support Globaslist agendas. I’am afraid so!!!
It is not Germany positioning itself. Its the ol’ Nazi comrades, their families and friends, who are positioning Germany again for that goal. And, there you go again, like once befor, the German citizen doesn’t have a clue about whats going on. So he’ll probably soon have another rude awakening….
