Bridges, roads and even schools (offering shelter and food for masses) are essential for defense though. It‘s part of the so called „erweiterter Sicherheitsbegriff“.

The multi-wumms of a country being driven against the wall. Probably against the anti-fascist firewall. Let's put oil in the fire, maybe it helps.

Crazy how thats an option all of a sudden if its for defense.
