Something unheard of happened in Germany at this year's traditional Easter peace marches: participants took up the slogan of an American president. Just as Barack Obama did this month in Prague,they called for a world without nuclear weapons. Obama's initiative has been well-received in Germany. Politicians of all political stripes support his vision -- Social Democrat Foreign Minister Frank Walter Steinmeier,the leader of the Liberal Free Democrat,FDP,Guido Westerwelle and of course the Left Party. The only exception is the Christian Democrats. They want the few American missiles still stored in the Eifel region to remain there as a nuclear deterrent.
