Germany won’t arrest Netanyahu ‘because of its Nazi history’
Germany won’t arrest Netanyahu ‘because of its Nazi history’
Unfortunately international media is not capturing the gravity of the German government winding around and refusing to say they abide by the ICC decision.
Here is todays gov. press conference in German. Maybe Youtube provides auto-translation. I think the faces and the way they talk can be understood even without knowing German.

Oh they’ve elevated it to an art form. They did actually say quite a lot while saying so little though, always pay close attention to what they’re comfortable talking about (such as Germany’s stance towards the ICC and the rule of law) vs. what they’re not comfortable talking about (what that stance implies, concretely, in this situation). If you think that’s unsatisfactory then they will, I quote, take notice of that, but they won’t humour you and spell out what can be inferred so you (or rather press) have a soundbite that would cause the foreign service diplomatic headaches.
And, yes, the journalists have also elevated making them squirm to an art form, to make sure that the interviewed officials don’t waffle when it is merely convenient, not expedient (at least according to the officials). Also of note the conference is run by journalists, not officials.
Zionists do not identify as religiously Jewish but as racially Jewish.
To Zionists, Jews are not the chosen people of god because of their religion, but because they are racially superior. You might notice that declaring ones own race the superior one was somewhat of a common trope in the time period.
This is why surprising to many, the founder of Zionism in 1896 Theodor Herzl, was an Atheist. It also explains the famous quote from Ilan Pappe;
“Most Zionists don’t believe that God exists, but they do believe that he promised them Palestine”
While it is probably true that he won’t get arrested, the headline is quite misleading: they’re currently avoiding to answer the question, because the German also has a historical responsibility to adhere to the ICJ.
They want to enable Israeli imperialism while not looking like they didn’t learn anything from being the reason the ICJ exists.
Game recognizes game.
Former genocidaire recognizes current genocidaire.
Ignoring the UN which was created because of Nazi Germany, because of your past, as Nazi Germany, in order to once again play the role of Nazi Germany.
Something about the AfD.
As a German, this seems like a cruel joke to me - “Because of our Nazi history, we are committed to protecting against an ICC warrant the person currently performing a genocide, establishing camps to “concentrate” refugees and then even bombing said camps”.
Fuck our government. This is about a war criminal and in my opinion it’s absolutely furthering antisemitism to allow the Israeli government to continue these atrocities. The best way to reduce antisemitism is to have the Israeli government commit less atrocities.
Abolish all forms of taxation except VAT. Make more essential goods and services VAT exempt. Then crank the rate of VAT sky-high for luxury goods and services. Make it a truly unavoidable Luxury Tax. If the 1% want their excesses, they can afford to pay 175% VAT on them (or whatever number balances the books).
Oh sorry I forgot where I was for a second.
I’d devalue coins by 1p and abolish the penny. If shops wanna charge £7.99 for something, they can work out the damn change from eight 99p coins.
