In this follow-up article to German Cat Is Out of the Bag – representatives of the Bundeswehr discussed the strikes on the Crimean Bridge we are taking a look at how the Germany handles the embarrassment. The article was first published as a post on our “Beorn And The Shieldmaiden” Telegram channel. Please subscribe!
With the much-discussed conversation of the Bundeswehr officials, (https://t.me/BeornAndTheShieldmaiden/2956) the Germans tried yesterday to chase the cat back into the bag, in much the same way and with as much success as when they pushed the gas back into the US-blown Nord Streams.
Maria Zaharova commented it thus on her Telegram channel:
Bild: “The Bundeswehr insisted on blocking accounts on the social network X, which distributed the recording of a conversation between the German military, who discussed the Taurus missile strike on the Crimean Bridge.”
It’s called “covering your tracks.” Will everything follow the same scenario as the German “investigation” of the terrorist attacks on the Nord Streams?
German citizens must learn from Scholtz about the rights of foreigners in Russia, Belarus, China, but not about their own German rights.

However, the only thing that blocking of X-accounts and the subsequent publication in the “Bild” can achieve, is the Streisand effect – an unintended consequence of attempts to hide, remove, or censor information, where the effort instead backfires by increasing public awareness of the information.
