Is Christine Lambrecht really Prussian Minister of War? Sometimes fact checks are just fun because they are so wonderfully absurd.
We received a request that made us laugh heartily. The great, wise search engine Google, which supposedly knows everything, EVERYTHING, has access to almost all existing websites and also sees itself as an artificial intelligence, made a heartfelt mistake that would make every German history teacher blush with shame and anger would have done if it had happened to one of his students.
Forward to the past
Anyone who googled Christine Lambrecht, a minister in the newly elected traffic light government, until a few days ago found the following reference:
Oops, PRUSSIAN war minister?
Seriously? Okay, somehow this has something to do with members of the German government, but unfortunately it's completely out of date... Let's be objective about it. What role does Minister Lambrecht really fulfill? Minister Lambrecht is the current Minister of Defense of the Federal Republic of Germany. Click here for her profile within the Federal Cabinet. By the way, Defense Minister is a term that beautifully expresses the German attitude towards its Bundeswehr as a defense army. Minister of War induces a very aggressive basic attitude, according to which conflicts or desires of a state are initiated and resolved militarily. A war of aggression is also possible. We are currently experiencing the threat to Ukraine from Russia.
Historical excursion
There have been Prussian war ministers since 1809, when the associated ministry was created as the highest central authority of the Prussian army. From 1867 they were also responsible for the contingents of the North German Confederation, and after 1871 also for troops in southern Hesse and Baden.
Was it possible to know that?
