Some have children, others kill them: is that still contemporary? Or are we just talking about new electoral nonsense?

taz: Mr. Küppersbusch, what was wrong last week?
Friedrich Küppersbusch: According to Sky News: Gelsenkirchen.
And what improvement in this?
Free travel for eastern citizens to Gelsenkirchen.
Boris Pistorius has presented his plans to introduce “selective military service”: according to the concept, from 2025 young people will have to fill out a questionnaire that will provide information on their suitability for military service. For young women, completing the form is voluntary. Is that fair?
According to Article 12a, the only compulsory service permitted by the Basic Law applies to men: compulsory military service. On the one hand, this is sublime yesterday's news and comes from a world in which paralysis, intestinal ruptures and miserable deaths, like beard growth and football fun, seemed to have been destined by God to man. On the other hand, there are many good reasons not to add conscription for women besides the increased social burden, wage injustice, and child-rearing work. That should be soon yesterday too. No more division of labor to the tune of “Guys, I'll kill you.” We have to reconcile. Germany has never been involved in as many combat missions as under the women Merkel, Kramp-Karrenbauer, von der Leyen and Baerbock is more likely to press for a press photo with a proto-thug like Klitschko than with a Ukrainian in exile. that he has hidden. This is a hard blow for feminists. And an argument in favor of mandatory military service for women: when a woman decides about her own body, she knows what she does.
After the disastrous results of Macron's Renaissance party in the European elections, the French president dissolved parliament and announced new elections. Should we also think about new elections in this country?
No, Friedrich Merz can do it alone. No traffic light party has any interest in transforming current poll numbers into a distribution of mandates. If the legislature is approved, Söder and Wüst will answer the candidates' question. Until then, the fuss about the new elections is as constructive as the identical text modules of the AfD and BSW: The main thing is to demolish things a little, Wessis in Weimar. The Basic Law does not provide for the resignation of the Chancellor or new elections for Daffke. From bitter experience, the founding fathers valued stability. And besides celebrating his 75th birthday, you can also stick to it.
He “Bild has announced that it will no longer authorize interviews with politicians. This has long been a practice in the United States and Great Britain. That's how it is?
Hello taz! Is anyone awake with you? In 2003, a printing ink festival appeared on the cover of the taz. This is what Olaf Scholz, then general secretary of the SPD, left in an interview. Zero response, and some Scholz press nannies also wanted to remove the unpleasant questions from the taz. At that time, several national newspapers joined the protest, including Springer Verlag. Even the government spokesman wanted “constructive dialogue,” another way of saying “this will be forgotten tomorrow.” It happened like that. One scan later, film Image every interview anyway and no longer thinks about print exploitation first. Politicians are eager for moving images, preferably 7-second clickable footage for TikTok. The authorization is transferred to the language center of the interviewees: Don't say anything that can't go viral. The less naïve painting in written conversations is a welcome incidental capture.
In Berlin, more than 60 countries discussed the future of Ukraine at the reconstruction conference. How important is it to begin reconstruction during war?
The gesture counts. It is a statement in favor of a civil, peaceful and independent Ukraine and, like emergency aid with weapons and the willingness to negotiate peace, it is part of our responsibility. The trick may be in the details: In the end, the country should not be hopelessly over-indebted and owned by foreign investors rather than Russians.
Friedrich Merz spoke out against the CDU's collaboration with the BSW. Can the CDU maintain the firewall left and right?
Pirouettenfritz accidentally deprived his friends in the Thuringian party of a relatively trouble-free future. And meanwhile he had to admit that BSW's rejection only concerned the federal level. You don't have to be a Wagenknecht servant to want the Thuringian CDU to have the opportunity to collaborate with BSW after the regional elections. Merz can no longer solve the fact that many supporters of the Union also find Ramelow more sympathetic and democratic.
A peace plan for the Middle East presented by the United States was approved in the UN Security Council. Observers say: Peace in the Middle East is closer than it has been in a long time. Is this perception correct?
The result of Hamas' terror since October 7 could not be more macabre.
And what does RWE do?
Berklant Gedikli from Essen almost made the Croatian team for the European Championship. He's 19 years old. Next time.
