Official German statement to the decision of #ICC

Erklärung der Bundesregierung zum Beschluss des Internationalen Strafgerichtshofs (Presse- und Informationsamt der Bundesregierung, 2024-11-22)

“The German government was involved in drafting the ICC Statute and is one of the ICC's biggest supporters. This attitude is also the result of German history.

“At the same time, as a consequence of German history, we are bound to Israel with unique relationships and great responsibility.

“We will carefully examine the domestic steps. Any further action would only be taken if it is foreseeable that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Joaw Galant will be visiting #Germany.”

So, keep them outside of German territory, and forget. 🙆

The German state has repeatedly banned or restricted basic expressions of Palestinian identity, including wearing kufiyah, displaying the Palestinian flag, or wearing the colors of the flag. The excuse is always the same: "antisemitism". They often use their censorship laws against Anti-Zionist jews.

They were already doing this over a year ago: https://peoplesdispatch.org/2023/10/23/germany-bans-public-grieving-and-solidarity-with-palestine/

The German state is acting in a way consistent with racism, ethnocentricity, and genocide. Germans always pat themselves on the back for allegedly confronting their Nazi history, but clearly this means very little.

Get bent, reporter.

Germany’s “special relationship” with Israel has so many Germans so propagandized and so confidently incorrect in their “enlightened” understanding of Zionism and of the state of Israel.
