My "German arms will not be used for genocide" note is raising a lot of questions already answered by my note

If someone told me in 2024 that Germany would support genocide again I think everyone would laugh. But it would be even funnier if the people found out that Germany wanted clarification after reported confirmations that they’re not being used to commit genocide. Ignorance is bliss. It hasn’t even been 100 years man.

Edit: a sentence that makes no sense. Germany supporting a Jewish ethnostate sponsored genocide.

Nah, this is supposed to be the figleaf that protects germany from the case against it in the ICC. That's why the arms shipment had stopped in the first place.

its what happens when you let the nazis keep running west germany shrug-outta-hecks

i wouldn't laugh. Germany has never stopped being a nazi infested shithole of rightwing genocidal white supremacist ideology. West Germany was ruled by Nazis. NATO was founded by Nazis. Nazis never were removed from power, and Germans were never sufficiently humbled or de-nazified.

They supported multiple genocidal wars post WW2, and they will continue doing it.

When someone smugly tells you that no one knows genocide like the Germans, critically believe them.

All I know about them is they got put in some of the first concentration camps.

"We are selling ammo to Nazi Germany in 1944, but we have a written contract that they'll only use these to shoot at Soviet and American soldiers [who would liberate the camps], therefore we are not culpable in the genocide" centrist
