@indyradio @Peter_Link Fun facts about the German #CDU party:
In 1951 Chancellor #Adenauer had stopped the #denazification of West Germany and started to protect and employ as much #Nazis as he could.
While many believe the #EU to be a leftist peace project, it's actually mostly run by the conservative #EPP with the CDU being the dominant part of that group.
Today Ursula #vonderLeyen is one of the biggest friends of Netanyahu, totally earning her nickname #FrauGenocide.

Any sources we can check?
@Fou_ad West #Germany: "Denazification was carried out in an increasingly lenient and lukewarm way until being officially abolished in 1951."

#Austria followed with the "NS Amnesty" in 1955.

An interesting article from Germany on the real Konrad #Adenauer: Friendly with the Nazis during the Third Reich, later he reinvented himself as a heroic #Nazi victim.

@Fou_ad October 2023: #vonderLeyen claiming all of Europe is standing at the side of #Netanyahu, fraiming critisism as "hate speech and fake news" and announcing a new wave of online #censorship: "We are already in contact with social media platforms to remind them of
their obligations."
