The Crime is Revealing the Truth

 So once again, the crime is in revealing the truth: Fall-out from the Bundeswehr scandal

But what exactly are the Germans going to investigate?  The breach of secret communications or the crime that the German government’s own officials were plotting? I would call it a ‘crime against humanity’ in the sense that their intended actions could lead to a world war and the end of civilization on earth.

Regrettably, from all appearances, it is only the first question that interests Herr Scholz, his associates in the coalition government and the Opposition, the Christian Democratic Union. That is what we find in The Financial Times online today in their article “Scholz promises inquiry after Russia publishes tapped military discussions.”  There is great consternation that the Russians have accessed what should have been maximally secure communications lines.  In its coverage today, Le Monde tells a similar story.
