Palestine

Germans, the inheritors of the legacy of West Germany, simply merged aspects of Nazism into their liberalism while officially declaring Nazism illegal. Often with literal actual Nazis being given important places in power, especially to continue their Nazi anticommunist work. They did not internalize the actual lesson, obviously. They still support scapegoating and racism and apartheid and genocide, and just like the Nazis, twist it into a self-defense logic of treating the perpetrators as victims and their targets as aggressors.

Something like 20% (or more?) of those they have censored and thrown the book at for criticizing Israel and having solidarity with Palestine are Jewish. It is not merely a selective understanding that only violence against Jewish people is wrong, as they continue to happily do it. It is a consistent alliance with Imperialist, racist genocide as laundered through the aforementioned narratives.

We need more countries advocating for including Germany as a party to thus genocide, to both publicly shame them and to materially work against their ability to support it with weapons, money, and diplomatic cover.
