Why Germany is a staunch supporter of Israel
HTML-код

- Israel is supported by many big international players - the US being the most powerful. Within Europe, it’s Germany. Following the October 7th attack by Hamas, Berlin’s backing has been ironclad. So why is Germany such a staunch supporter of Israel?

Germany is always on the wrong side of the History.
Just like genocide Joe has been for the last fifty years. Totally worthless. Biden is to old to be telling anyone that this has to end.
No we are on the right side this time. Long live Israel. We dont support terror against our Jewish friends.
No, if you stand by our land which was given to us by G-d, you stand on the right side of history.
Because germany is a weapons manufacturer masquerading as a country?
Shame on Germany!!! So much blood on Scholz and Baerbock hands!
The all ways Ben fashiist
Shame on Islam the religion of rapist,kidnappers,killers,satanic religion,shame.Go to your own natives.
I am proud that you tell me to be ashamed :) I am German and stand with Israel, shameless ;)
Israel and Germany are brothers hand in hand, you jump I jump
As well as US
It's called lap dogs
Really?..
Germany.. You jump, I will jump too.
Israel.. Yes, you jump first, I will help you.
Germany.. OK, I jump first. Thank you bro.
Israel.. Bye!
Same scenario between Germany and US. Germany has never learned and repeats their history over and over. Germany just love playing stupid games to win stupid prizes. Both Israel and US are generous, let Germany keep the stupid prizes.
So referring to Palestinians as the amalek is not a genocidal statement. Carpet bombing civilian infrastructure is not ethnic cleansing? Saying that the Palestinians are human animals is not a genocidal statement? Intentionally starving the population is not genocidal. Israels far right parliamentarians and high officials have in the open stated their intent to eliminate not Hamas but the entire Palestinian population is that not a genocidal intent? What is the argument exactly here?
The real reason why Germany supports Itsracial is the same why the US supports it: Both have gigantic Z-lobbies in their country. It's not that hard to figure out (just use your search engine and look at official sites of these pressure groups), but apparently it's very hard to speak about in the media.
💯
Because Germany commuted the holocaust but want Palestinians to be punished for that crime by paying with their land and lives.
and bc of Zionism.
Singaporeans stand in solidarity with the Palestinians 🤲
If at first you don’t succeed try try again?
Afraid they might claim land in Germany when they leave Palestine.
For the simple reason that germany depends heavily on Israelis military equipment while at the same time, germany also earns billions € supplying miltary equipment to Israel.
It's all about *POWER AND MONEY*, both ways
Paid with American dollars
Hint .. Germany likes to do everything twice
There was also a genocide in Namibia. So it's not twice, it's thrice.
Thrice. Don’t forget the first one, Namibia Genocide
Ouch.
Thrice, you forgot Namibia!
Is it possible to treat Israel like anybody else when its creation of Israel itself is a special treatment by America and Europe? Europeans and US may speak about objectivity but their actions throughout history shows that they are showing special treatment to Israel .
Yes they do treat Israel differently because it’s the only sovereign country whose right to exist is continuously being questioned.
The only one the UN created for Europeans at the expense of the natives - to whom a promise of independence had been given *before* Balfour in exchange for fighting for Britain in WWI. Bavaria would have been, therefore, a much more just location. Or Heidelberg.
Ipso facto
@astroflyinsights or in USA
Blackmail, making them Bibi's Proxies.
Zionism.
I enjoyed the debate! I too am less hung up on the semantics of genocide. No one deserved what happened to the Israeli people on 07 Oct. 2023, but Israel's response is insane. Their response was not and is not proportional. It is cruel/inhumane, colonial, racist and murderous on a mass scale. Netanyahu and his gangster government need to be met with what one panelist said an objective approach from their Western allies. Bravely condemn and denounce Israel's behaviour, cut off military and economic aid and vigorously aid the Palestinian people to restore them the best we can. I appreciate Ireland has called out Israel. Ultimately, Israel and Palestine have to live peacefully side by side. The West has the resources and now just has to find the guts to do just that!
It's not about deserving or not deserving. It wasn't about dealing isahellis a punishment. Jeez there's no excuse for such ignorance.
Birds of a feather flock together.
Germany and Israel are to sides of the
same coin. These
people are related.
Not sure where Israelis came from. If they came from the concentration camps it is beginning to look like they might have been the guards not the prisoners.
Both sides are adhering to a deal they made in 1950s. Israel was one of the first countries to establish diplomatic relations with West Germany declaring it " completely denazified" - although most of politicians and government officials just picked up where they left off in '45. Israel, ofcourse got large reparations they were practicaly living off all trough 50s and 60s until Uncle Sam stepped to the plate.
It wasn’t until 12 May 1965 that Israel and West Germany established diplomatic relations. Hardly one of the first. Makes me wonder if you are an actual person or an AI bot that just pumps out nonsense.
@@ThorstenSchulte first diplomatic contacts started in early 1950s. By 52' Reparation Agreement was negotiated between Ben Gurion and Adenauer and regular German payments started. From late '50s to '67 Germany was 2nd biggest supplier of weapons to Israel after France. Formal diplomatic recognition was signed in 65' mostly because of internal Israely politics. But in practice Germans were buying off forgivness of sins and Israel eas eager to sell it...
One answer: culpability. Period
Knowing the history of Germany, it would be political suicide not to help Israel. They don't want to help, but they must. Simple as that.
Some minimise the deaths of over 30,000 Palestinians, but if it was in their own countries, they'd take a VERY different stance.
No comments yet? What happened to the previous comments? Censored and deleted? Why post comments on the platform?
Because their reparations lol 🤣
No, it's bc of Zionism just like in the US.
Germany stopped paying to UNWRA after January 29th, not after October 7th.
I think the dates ought to be correct.
He was quick to accuse Isreal of genocide WITHOUT ANY EVIDENCE.
They are probably riddled with guilt for getting rid of the porblem, want others to pay for their guilt
Dumb question. Hereditary guilt.
We stand to Justice, human rights and equity for Palestinians Against the authorities and genocide of Israel
Germany lives the Mersey of Israel to survive.
All payments to Palestine are routed through Israel and this is includes the German payments.
Excellent..👍
"Better Palestine than us"
Germany is simping for Israel
Because Germany is historically wrong every single freaking time!
Free free Falasteen فلسطين حرة
In the US, even if Jesus come back to earth and say something against Israel, they will make a law to stop him because they will call Jesus: Antisemitism and put him in prison. Lol.
The Kabbalah thinks that it rules the world.
Haavara Agreement redux. Mr Kampfner completely ignores Namibia, that Germany committed a genocide in Namibia. It seems his vision is limited to himself?
Bless you Germany.
guilty of war crimes supply of arms and a facists regime should be brought to court with europe britain usa and saudi turkey jordan .
Very accurate and lucid points from Haim. Totally disagree with the perspectives of the other 2 German apologists
Because they have experience in extermination of a whole group of people. They are the masters supporting the student
Benoxyid is not ageinxsthe Bosnizn an Nhkoats gebnosyde for in fact it suported Germany,have not change from its Nazi time germany is sreal a nazi state
German-Staatsräson ist lawlessness as defined by the German parliament:
The Permission To Break Through the Constitution and morality of society!
Everyone learns slowly, Germany is no exception. Like US, German people are wonderful, it is our governments and propaganda.
Takes one to know one!
Feeling Guilty.....Adolph..
Shame !!!!!
Supporting the injustice Natayahu and his extremist cabinet doing is not helping anyone including Israel,s it will only create more problems.
If Germany feels a strong moral commitment, its only right that they should give half of thier land to Isreal. Why do they expect Palestinians to pay for thier guilt?
Most Israeli Jews don't want to live on German soil. They consider Israel their ancestral "holy land". The ancestors of most Israeli Jews didn't live in Germany but in Poland, Yemen, etc.
Guilt
German are famous in histpry for only onè😢 reason
Couldnt be israeli back handers could it?
European shame palastine pays
why? because germany would like to see the continuation of facism 😂
