The resolution says that territory placed at the disposal of another state cannot be used by that state for perpetrating an “act of aggression” against a third state. “We don’t know yet whether Ramstein is in that line or not,” he says. Germany hosts thousands of US military personnel at the Ramstein airbase, which serves as a US Air Force headquarters for Europe and Africa. Defense Minister Boris Pistorius on Monday said he saw “no reason at present to doubt the legality of the use of Ramstein” in the war against Iran. German officials in recent weeks have responded to questions about Ramstein’s possible involvement in the war by saying that the US military’s use of the base is governed by treaties. Nili urged Germany and Europe to call on the “aggressors to stop.” An ongoing war “has certain consequences for Europe as well,” he says, citing “economic consequences, refugee crisis, terrorism, disintegration of the region”. “We need a long-lasting ceasefire,” he says, adding that “compensation is another question” regarding alleged attacks on civilian targets. Nili says the Strait of Hormuz, a vital shipping channel effectively blocked by Iran since the start of the war, is still “open right now” for states that were “not aggressors or supporting aggressors.” https://ww...ermany-on-us-airbase-ramstein/ |

rank | Sat Mar 21 08:45:18 ” We need a long-lasting ceasefire” I doubt he said the word ”ceasefire”. Iran has consistently said that they need and want a solution to the conflict, not a ceasefire.They want Iron-clad security guarantees which rules out any future attacks on their country by Israel and the JewSA. |

There's no ink on paper that will prevent another attack, and there's no one to enforce it if there was such a thing. - |

It could preplace a few 1000 balistic missiles and go terminal if Israel ever targetted its forces in Iran. Would a million barrels a day from Iran be a suitable price to pay? I imagine so. |

Even aliens test their newest weapons on us https://ww...-a-house-in-koblenz/a-76275189 03/09/2026 A bright meteorite streaking across western Germany had residents spellbound, with a fragment punching a hole in the roof of a house in Koblenz. Authorities said the object struck a home in the Güls district around 7 p.m. local time (1800 GMT/UTC) on Sunday evening, leaving a football-sized hole in the roof. No one was injured. |

They are a peaceful people, Jews aren't really human anyway so it's ok to target them. Plus we need excuses to cover and appease" -seb and other cowerers Iran shoots missile at Diego garcia 4000km away. US shoots down missile. Seb says thank you and admits he was wrong? |
