    Whatever our colonial outpost does is of course not illegal. Rules for thee but not for me. No nation should trust western nations who play these games. Only Ireland and Spain seem to have some integrity

    Seriously, something in WWII broke German minds. Yes, Nazis were horrible but you went from one stupid extreme to another stupid extreme and both ended up with genocides

    Germany, please, can you try to go to some middle ground somewhere?

      We’re trying! Some of us, at least. I have plenty of “anti-genocide no matter the flag” people in my general social environment. Hell, even at work do some colleagues openly criticise it with no pushback.

      Unfortunately, the “Christian” parties and one quite blatantly (Neo-)Nazi party hold too much public attention and influence. I guess massacring muslims is still popular with Christians…

    I dont get how, as europe, we still insist to follow every fucking step of that travesty of a country that is the united states. We have the resources to do everything on our own terms and we still do this blatant fucking ass licking of a warmongering bastard and his little fucking friends like israel.

    We dont have the balls to stand up for anything even its blatant violation of international law, of which we pretend to be the biggest defenders. Yeah israel is aleays right and yet again another western violation of sovereignity is justified because iran has nuclear (which israel has since decades) but they would use it bad not like us, good and morally stable.

    Yep. The only question is why we’re not doing the same to Russia.

    You immediately know the answer to that question, don’t you? And so now you know why Iran needed to be attacked.

    Who gives a fuck what retarded grandma thinks? She made only bad moves while in politics and she should stay quiet before people remember who is guilty for terrorist attacks, immigrants, couple of dictators and fucking up EU.

        It’s not overcorrection, they simply learned the wrong lesson from WW2: “Don’t mess with the Jewish” instead of “Don’t be pro genocide.” It’s also been a long time since then and the consequences they suffered.

          I went back and did some reading and it is crazy that Germany is siding with Israel

          The evidence is pretty astounding and Israel is not really complying with the court orders

    Please, everyone who supported the “ReArm Europe” initiative with the 800bn€ yearly to military: THIS IS WHAT SUCH WEAPONS WILL BE USED FOR. They tell you they’re to “fight the evil dictators”, but they’re used to bomb the people standing against Israel and Europe. Europe is a genocide-supporting empire and we should all take a pacifist stance to prevent further stuff like this. Today it’s Trump, tomorrow it’s Meloni/LePen/Orban.

        You seriously aren’t worried what kind of lobbying Rheinmetall will be able to do with the juicy billions flowing from your pockets to their bank accounts? You’re not worried what will happen if the Donald Trumps of Europe get access to years of billions of expenditure in weapons? Ffs Europe jumped at the occasion of bombing Libya and Yugoslavia and invading Iraq, what makes you think they won’t be doing the same?

    Probably worth pointing out that neither Israel nor the US seem interested in occupying Iranian territory.
