Now The Russians Are Pissing the Germans Off

First the Brits ruffled some Teutonic feathers by dissing the new German Pope. Now the agitation is coming from the other direction as the Russians proudly display works of art pludered from Germany in the last days of the war as "compensation." There's a neat double irony here - like the Germans have a right to complain about others looting their art - and the Russians have a right to expect compensation from anyone.
But anyway, isn't it kind of fun to see these old animosities bubble up again? Now Germany's in no shape to be starting any kind of saber rattling, but with a little motivation they could probably get themselves mobilized pretty quickly. Now wouldn't that be fun - to see the ole Huns go on another two-front rampage? Only this time, not having any particular ax to grind, we could just sit this one out and enjoy the show.
