From a business point of view when dealing with Israel, it doesn’t take much to figure out they are blocking or limiting Palestinians business.
From a military point of view, it doesn’t take much to realize how genocidal most of these technologies are.
With the US, we can attribute the support to many things, political reasons, capitalism, religious with Christian Zionists, and even blunt blackmailing. However, with Germany all these doesn’t work as well.
Personally, I think German rather have Zionist there than being in Europe. Which is the ultimate solution. If Israel fail, most of these people will go back where they came from ( Poland, Russia, Germany, France, England) or immigrate to NA or SA which would be another problem no one want to deal with.
Germany sees support for Israel‘s existence as preventing another Holocaust of the Jewish people.
In the 1950s Israel‘s economy was in shambles. So they accepted money from Germany to build their country, much of it went into buying heavy machinery from Germany.
Over time Germany and Israel cooperated militarily more. The Bundeswehr used the Uzi submachine gun for example and the Israeli Merkava tank uses German technology.
Germany also sold submarines to Israel, which are capable of launching nuclear missiles. Some of the submarines were paid for by Germany. The capability for a nuclear second strike via submarines is regarded as insurance for Israel‘s existence.
German involvement with Israel/Palestine goes back a long time. German Jews were important in the Zionist movement and founding of Israel. On the other hand the Palestinian leader Al-Husseini lived in Germany during WW2 and worked for the Nazis.
During the Cold War East Germany was among the first countries to support the PLO. West German leftist terrorists like RAF (Baader-Meinhof) cooperated with Palestinian militants and conducted several high profile operations together (e.g. Entebbe).
The Palestinian terrorist attack on the Israeli Olympic team 1972 in Munich was a major embarrassment for the German government.
business
Israel is a highly developed country. Palestine has a small economy compared to Israel. A big part of Palestinian trade goes through Israel anyway. Germany doesn’t sanction trade with Palestine in any way. As a matter of fact Germany has long supported a Palestinian state as part of a two state solution and is one of the major sources of funding for the Palestinian Authority and development projects in Palestine.
back where they came from
More than half of Israeli Jews are Mizrahi, who were expelled from Muslim and Arab countries. They can’t go back. Besides that most Israelis were born in the country.
The over correcting logic doesn’t hold much.
