US Embassy returns to historic Berlin address

The U.S. Embassy in Germany returned to the site it occupied before World War II, marking the occasion Friday with a ribbon cutting by former President Bush and Ambassador William Timken.

THE GERMAN PARLIAMENT IS CALLED THE BUNDESTAG. THE REICHSTAG WAS THE TERM USED DURING THE NATIONAL SOCIALIST ERA.

Good, straightforward story. Wish more net stories were this clear.

The US desire to have its embassy at the Pariser Platz isn't a manifestation of humble goodwill, but a self-important desire to prolong the feeling of occupation.
Nothing good of it will come in the long term.
No embassy is located near the Washington white house...
