Hoooo boy Merkel needs to shut the fuck up and fade into history. I struggle to think of a politician who fell so far in my opinions. Obama is up there for sure, but Merkel went from (what I thought of as) one of the most brilliantly shrewd practitioners of geopolitical realpolitik in the western world to essentially a Russian apologist… which is frustrating and depressing to integrate with my previous opinion of her, because it largely points towards her being uncritically russophilic, and moreover, intentionally blind to a LOT of the typical modern Russian geopolitical playbook.

Der Führer schützt das Recht.

It’s a distasteful comparison, but it’s literally the logic here: „We are international law, and international law is us. If we must break international law to protect our interests, then we are protecting international law itself.“

If attacking a sovereign country is legal, that means your legal system is broken, not that the attack is justified.

Yikes. That is the most deranged thing I have ever heard from her.

She knows very well that israel had no reason to strike while there were talks ongoing.

Western propaganda is going apeshit now. The mountain of lies grows ever higher. First it was antisemitic to criticize israel. Now that the general public and even a german parliamentary party has buried that tactic, the next one is explaining how unprovoked attacks without a war declaration are okay against iran but not okay against ukraine.

Please take note: YOU CANT ATTACK OTHER PEOPLE YOU FUCKTARDS!

The racism of german politics is on fire today.

Israel's attack on Iran had one main objective: shifting the attention away from the genocide in Gaza. It also helped Bibi cement the fragmented Israeli population behind him. Last objective was to drag the US in his war against Iran, something he has been pushing for years. It's an all win for a proto fascist and corrupt state and Merkel aligning herself with Israel in that context is despicable.

nazis gonna nazi

Yes, if it's not against white people and/or no money is to be made, fine.

If it could affect us, no dice.

Sorry Mutti. I love you, but this is bullshit
