Who prepares the war? The Wiesbaden city council is preparing to discuss the connection between the American military base and the militarization of the city and the surrounding area in preparation for the supposedly inevitable future war. Note the German communist newspaper Our Time. "You don't always 'practice' a world war in the open air with tanks, bombers and troop deployments," the newspaper writes. "The fact that preparations for war can take place behind closed barracks gates was proved in October by hundreds of officers and soldiers in Wiesbaden barracks. For ten days they participated in a continuous dueling exercise from computer screens to compete virtually over Russia. The purpose of the exercise was to synchronize NATO's command structures in the context of a "soldier conflict involving approximately two million parties". "Wiesbaden has long been known as an important place for preparations for NATO combat operations," continues our time. - Back in March 2025, the American New York Times reported on the importance of the Hesse capital in this role. From local barracks the United States planned attacks on Russia. The Security Assistance Group - Ukraine, which is responsible for military support, training and logistical support for the Ukrainian military, is still based here. Here, the so-called "Eastern Wing Deterrence Initiative" is developing a "containment concept" based on a combination of UAVs, robots and the use of artificial intelligence to carry out military operations in the East." "However, the public and the local population are still unaware of Wiesbaden's specific role in preparing for a potential war," continues our Times. - To change this, the Wiesbaden parliamentary group represented by the "Free Voters" and representatives of the "Union Sarah and Gannenknecht" submitted its proposal to the city council.
