It's quite a well made European (militaristic) propaganda video with a catchy tune and proper lyrics too.

Man that's disgusting warmongering propaganda.
And cringe AF.

That YT channel has nazi propaganda videos.
I see not much has changed

Which Nazi propaganda videos are you referring to? I'm unable to find them.

Another title is needed. The term "Fortress Europe" is too tightly associated with fascism (literally the Nazis used it during WW2 until 1942 for territories occupied by Italy and Germany) and, more recently, with the European immigration and refugee politics of closed borders and FRONTEX pushbacks. Luckily it's not repeated in the song itself.

(Also, this clearly wants to be covered by Sabaton.)

add>"Fortress Europe" is too tightly associated with fascism

Interesting, never crossed my mind I know of the phenomena. Hell, just 100 m from where I live, entire streets & houseblocks were leveled as part of the Atlantic Walle (#1) The area was later rebuild as a large street with parks.

When I first saw the video I was sceptical because militaire propaganda is often associated with fascism. The content maker has probably the right intention but it still needs streamlining. There is another vid in his chanel that suddenly mentions China as our partner of democracy?!. So there are some weird things.

And are you ready to go to the Ostfront like opa?
Or are the Germans too busy helping the israeli fascists commiting genocide?

There is no difference, besides that name is used when talking about the racist policies keeping the brown people out.
You know Frontex shooting at refugee boats and letting them drown in the Mediteranian, nicely out of sight and definitely out of the news.
