Assessing Germany's National Security Strategy: Goals vs Means.
TL;DR
Germany's National Security Strategy, titled "On guard. Resilient. Sustainable. Integrated Security for Germany," is a blueprint for war abroad and the establishment of a police state at home. The document aims to increase German military spending to 2% of GDP, excluding the special fund, and enable the Bundeswehr to wage permanent war. The scenarios extend to nuclear war. The National Security Strategy subordinates all areas of economic and social life to the concept of "security" and de facto declares them to be war-relevant.
