I am not sure 1.5m Germans all deciding on a single course of action is something to be happy about.

Why? Can you explain a little bit?

I am not sure if you are a student of history but twice before the Germans decided to go to war and have as their foe the world.

We happily take the blame for WW2, but WW1 is on Austria!

It was a quote from Norm Macdonald, comedy - look it up if German search engines lower themselves with such humourous returns. The Germans are what they are, today they fought against appeasement and led a European announcement of greatly increased defense spending to support Ukraine and the world more widely, a difficult and noble decision. Filling the gap left as the US falls ever further into shame.
