Trapped between what it sees as a historical responsibility to Israel and international law and diplomacy, Germany is facing a tough foreign policy test after the latest Israeli attacks on Iran.

    Europe’s complicity in Israel’s imperialism has been a colossal embarrassment.

      Seriously, Germany’s fear of repeating history is going to turn into quite the rhyme.

        Almost like they did not understand that no genocide should happen, but that Israël was allowed to do whatever they want (some Israeli critical jewish historian was accused of antisemitism --')

          Yeah, they’re so afraid of being antisemite, they forgot to be anti-genocide.

          I get that they’re hesitant about telling Israel what to do, but god damn, they should be the first ones to demand UN forces on the ground. My grandfather must be rolling in his grave over his countrymen repeating the failure he had to live with.

    I am going to be watching with a not insignificant amount of glee when AfD manages to take power in Germany specifically because of shit like this.
