Chanting ‘from the river to the sea’ would be criminalised under proposed state law

      Yeah, it really looks like Germany has learned the wrong lesson from the Holocaust.

      Quite a leap from a legitimate criticism over their politicians actions to denying a whole people statehood… Maybe add some nuance to your thinking like the other comments on this thread have.

        No. No ethnic group is entitled to their own statehood. That’s a blatant endorsement of ethnostates, which is an inherently authoritarian and genocidal concept.

        Also, some random dickhead reported my comment for “promotion g genocide”. Some real backwards ass shit right there.

          There is a reason the Jews needed a place to go. Neither the first nor last time probably this reason exists. Probably simpler to give them a place of refuge. Also your comment shows you don’t know how Palestine cameu to be, because it happens to match exactly these circumstances as well. Should we treat them the same as you suggest we treat Israel?

          Nobody expected them to go full fascism and genocidal. But then again, this is the cycle of abuse, isn’t it?

        International law do not prohibit merging and separating states. Because of Israel policies since it’s creation and building colonies over the decade a two state solution is impossible to do. I have yet seen anybody saying how to implement a two state, politicians only say it without conviction to protect Israel goals and maintaining the status quo

          So you propose merging both States and creating a single governing body? What would that look like? UN coming in and both sides stop fighting? Honestly asking, sounds like an interesting idea.

        I would feel the same if the Zionists had picked my country as destination and I’d live on a strip of land while everything else would be Israel.

          You can feel the same. And you have the right to speak out for that. Your and my feelings are not a suitable basis for international politics.

            Are you deducing my point of view to a discussion of mere feelings?

            In case my opinion is not worthy enough for you, check out Israel Zangwill, who was a zionist and a proponent of ”people without land, land without people” narrative, but after realising it was already inhabited turned against it.

              I’m saying you havesa right to your opinion and there should be no law restricting your freedom to speak it.

              Also saying that power does not care about those opinions and that changing something requires more than just our opinions being spoken out publicly.

      “Genocide for thee, not for mee”

      EDIT: Yes Lemmy, if you take Palestine, give it’s territory to Israel and disband Palestine, and then impose control upon them - that’s a form of genocide.

      But of course you want this towards another country/state, just giving you a good example of your own hypocrisy.

        Are you the moron who reported my comment “genocidal”? Wtf is wrong with you? How dense do you have to be to have that interpretation?

        Israel is an erhnostate. It’s existence is built on genocide. I said Germany shouldn’t support the state of Israel because it is inherently genocidal, and it fucking is. That means Germany ignored the lessons they were supposed to learn from the Holocaust and is endorsing genocide.

        Maybe think before you comment and report baselessly like that.

          I don’t even know who you are, but to me it’s quite clear they feel like they owe to the Jews, but hey, those are just my last 2 brain cells connecting the dots and not being obnoxious or angry online, or insulting others based on assumptions

            So what part of owing the Jews plays into their support of Israel(a state that does not represent Jews as an ethnicity) factors into supporting:

            An apartheid ethnostate?

            Genocide against Palestinians?

            Rampant and violent expansionism in Palestine?

            Rampant and violent expansionism against nearly all of Israel’s neighbors?

            Mass rape of prisoners of war?

            Employing the most notorious pedophile to traffic minors to rich elites and politicians in an elaborate blackmail scheme?

            An illegal and offensive war with Iran that has tanked the global economy?

            Illegally possessing nuclear weapons and threatening to use them against Palestine?

            Exporting mass surveillance technology to authoritarian regimes?

            These are just a few of Israel’s crimes against humanity. But I guess you think Germany should have to endlessly support those monsters.

              Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about? You can’t even easily get a citizenship without Jewish links, and that’s not even without getting into the WW2 and how modern Israel came to be (again?)

              An apartheid ethnostate?

              It might be best to refrain from using words whose definitions can be a bit advanced, and therefore end up being misused in completely wrong contexts.

              For the rest of your points - I just simply stated why Germany does this, not really getting into why they should not, but if you look at the Ie. military exports, then it has fallen quite drastically, so the support has definitely fallen.

              When it comes to Europe and support of Islamic States versus support for other western countries or their allies - I don’t think I need to elaborate here.

        Weird how you’re getting downvoted when it’s just facts. No reasoning or anything either.
