According to German media, the leading Greens are said to have insisted transports of weapons and spare parts could only go ahead once the Israeli government signed a guarantee that it would not use the weapons to commit acts of genocide. #Germany #Israel #Gaza #Lebanon

#Germany’s foreign minister Annalena Baerbock, and economics minister #RobertHabeck, both of the #GreensParty, are said to have blocked German arms

They are funded to be a #PlacateParty, yes.

Our #GreensParty in #Australia is equally myopic. A real progressive will be shunned by them. The only thing Green about them is their party colouring. They are constantly missing in action, missing the point or actively trying to make it harder for real progressives to gain a political footing.

A few years ago they ditch our preference system so minor party votes went in the trash.

A nasty lot - the fairweather greens.
