  Por Delia Crespo.

Ex alcalde de Colonia, fue despedido de su trabajo poco después de que los nazis llegaran al poder en 1933. Fue encarcelado dos veces durante el régimen nazi, brevemente durante la Noche de los cuchillos largos en 1934, y nuevamente después de la Operación Valquiria, la más famosa. Intento de asesinato de Hitler, en 1944. Mientras tanto, hizo todo lo posible por vivir fuera del radar en su retiro.

Su falta de conexiones directas con los nazis lo convirtió en el candidato favorito para el liderazgo después de la guerra. Fundó el partido conservador CDU (Unión Demócrata Cristiana), que llegó a dominar la política alemana de la posguerra. En las primeras elecciones de posguerra en Alemania Occidental, en 1949, su partido obtuvo la mayor cantidad de votos con un 31%, superando apenas al resucitado Partido Socialdemócrata (SPD). Como líder de la CDU, Adenauer se convirtió en canciller a los 73 años.

En ese momento se supuso que Adenauer actuaría como canciller “interino” hasta que la próxima generación de líderes estuviera lista. Sin embargo, Adenauer permanecería al mando durante 14 años y sus políticas determinaron la dirección y el papel de la Alemania Occidental de la posguerra en el mundo. Adenauer empujó al país hacia el rearme y la integración con la OTAN en lugar de la neutralidad como ocurrió con Austria. Lo hizo a pesar de la oferta hecha por Stalin en 1952 de reunificarse con Alemania Oriental a cambio de la neutralidad alemana.

De manera controvertida, denunció el proceso de desnazificación y buscó amnistía para los burócratas nazis de menor rango, entendiendo que, si se llevaba demasiado lejos, la desnazificación privaría a Alemania Occidental de personas capaces de dirigir el gobierno. Sin embargo, su gobierno también fue uno de los primeros en reconocer el Estado de Israel, aprobó leyes que permitían a las antiguas víctimas de la persecución nazi presentar reclamaciones de restitución y, en 1951, se convirtió en uno de los signatarios del Tratado de París, que estableció la Unión Europea. Comunidad del Carbón y del Acero, precursora de la Unión Europea.

Adenauer y su ministro de Economía, Ludwig Erhard, revivieron la economía de Alemania Occidental. Persiguieron un modelo de crecimiento ordoliberal, que combina políticas liberales clásicas que incluyen recortes de impuestos, desregulación y una política monetaria sólida con un gran Estado de bienestar que ofrece beneficios como atención médica universal para alentar mayores niveles de productividad de los trabajadores de Alemania Occidental. Estas y otras políticas crearon la economía social de mercado que Alemania tiene hoy, lo que condujo a altos niveles de crecimiento económico durante los siguientes 30 años, un fenómeno conocido como Wirtschaftswunder (tr. “milagro económico”).

Adenauer finalmente renunció como canciller en 1963 a la edad de 87 años, pero no se jubiló hasta tres años después. Resultó ser exactamente el “anti-Hitler” que su país y el mundo necesitaban. No es exagerado decir que su liderazgo permitió a Alemania resurgir como el ave fénix de las cenizas de la destrucción.

I hope things turn out for the best situation there can be. Men will be men i just wish it wouldn’t mean people get hurt or displaced
Most decent people can compromise and consider ways to live together in the thought that we all want the same thing which is real peace and rral time connection and understanding of each other but come to a natural and obvious choice of inclusion of all and everyone.

Joe says what he needs to say-I don’t know how he lives with himself but what’s worse is how his wife allows her husband to continue to make an ass of himself and lose all credit ability with the public.

the unfit leadership keeps eyes upon appreciation as a reward for themse lves all the time don’t think that the leadership have always tough duties to the country and its people to perform so they must keep their eyes upon the concreate acheivments the ‘output’ in transparent manners ‘show guts and grace’ like Putin and XiJinping’ not to awaite undu appreciation for themselves inst ead for doing nothing or done infact for the notorious things to destroy the peace loving world.

Will they talk about distribution effected by the boarder mandate ( fencing, animal feed and groceries or products needed for production?)– for the truckers needing to go into canada. will he be meeting with PM? Journalist need to start interviewing businesses effected by this and how production and animal feed will slow due to the issue. How will this effect the US people and what is the president planning to do or support? To me they seam to talk allot about things when they have bigger real current issues at hand. Or at least it feels that way. What will he do for the general public and freedoms.

His college lies went further than saying he was at the top of his class. He also claimed to have 3 degrees. He had 1 degree and graduated near the bottom of his class.

When Biden said “I don’t work for the people”, he was actually telling the truth.

Lying is the inseparable essence of a politician. Grab the power with dishonesty and hold on to it with deception. All of them. Some of these bandits do with the flavor of religion.
