      Sadly Germany’s current government is right wing and pro Israel, and the chancellor has publicly stated that they will ignore the ICC warrant.

        Disgusting. I’m so sick of these fascist genocide enablers. I hope Germans riot over this.

            Open a history book, please. The Nazis plan wasn’t to kill all Jews, it was to deport them all elsewhere until they realized how absurdly expensive that was, then the plan kept getting worse and worse until the gas chambers era that somehow is the only fucking thing people know about Nazi Germany now.

              I mean, that feels a little like saying “Andrew Jackson’s plan wasn’t to kill all native Americans. He just wanted to deport them across the country. Then things just got worse and worse, and now the only thing anyone remembers about that deportation plan is the Trail of Tears.”

                The nazis based their policy on the genocide of indigenous Americans so that’s closer to the truth than you think

                The path is more important than the destination. Knowing the end result of a genocide does not help in prevention; however knowing step by step how a group of people was convinced to murder/torture/rape/enslave/dehumanize the entirety of another group of people is a massive help in preventing it.

        No because Germany wants to keep their plausible deniability for violating the ICC arrest warrant. It is Netanyahu’s plane he uses to travel to the US and elsewhere so it’s highly likely that he used it to hide in Germany.

          He hid it in Berlin before, it’s a representative and extremely pricey asset that is easy to target. Sending that damn plane to Germany without him in it has become standard practice.

                Oh I thought there was a concrete suspicion, my bad. But what do we need bunkers for in Germany, just bomb em all to be sure. If he is hiding in one, great, saves an expensive ICC trial. If not, well it’s not like a country that already openly admitted they would harbor an internationally sought war criminal is gonna make good use of their bunkers.

                  So if you are for randomly bombing countries, what exactly is your problem with Netanjahu?

      The German government is deathly afraid of anything that could be constructed as anti-semitic. Probably also bought, but that’s just a guess. Pathetic, and I say that as a German.

      If Netanyahu turns up in Germany (and right now, he isn’t here, theres videos showing him in Tel Aviv while the jet was already landing in Berlin), but if he turns up, this might trigger a constitutional crisis. Chancellor Merz has assured him he would not be arrested, but by law he has to be and the Chancellor has control of the executive, not the judicative. Multiple citizens organizations have already called for legal measures against the Chancellor, should he try and interfere with an arrest.

      In short: Merz has the power to stop the arrest, but it would be illegal and lead to interesting consequences.

      He does indeed, and the public prosecutors have been notified, but alas- nothing happens (surprise)

    Hmm. Who’da thought that the right wing German state was all for death and destruction? Glad my grandfather is no longer alive to see what Israel has become after all he did to help them after the war.

      What did they become? Pretty much all we’re seeing they’ve been doing since 1948. You think folks left peacefully during the nakba? Entire villages were slaughtered, others levelled or burned. And this is not some small thing either. About 700k Palestinians were made refugees, i.e., ethically cleansed. What’s the difference these days? Tik tok?

    I think that’s jumping to conclusions. Although I am certain our government ignoring his arrest-order is a real possibility.

    Well we all know what it looked like when they found Saddam Hussein, but what about Netanyahu?
