    The fact that the monsters in Israel are not held accountable, but instead even receive support for their heinous crimes, says everything there is to know about our politicians—this is especially true of Western democracies, which presume to stand up for human values but do the exact opposite.

    As a German, I am particularly ashamed of our government’s behavior. The unbelievable presumption that we have a “historical responsibility” toward Israel because of our terrible past is a slap in the face to all victims of Nazi crimes.

    If our politicians had even a modicum of moral conscience, Germany would have to be Israel’s most vehement critic. But no—instead, our politicians are even supplying weapons, doing everything they can to cover up Israel’s atrocities, and thus actively participating in the genocide being committed by this criminal state.

    It is a disgrace and a declaration of moral bankruptcy. We must drive these goddamn monsters from office and hold them personally accountable for their complicity in these heinous crimes.

    I myself do not know a single German citizen who would see it any differently—this is especially true of my Jewish friends, who despise Israel for its crimes and yet must feel threatened by its constant, utterly absurd accusations of anti-Semitism.

    This is not about religion, but about crimes against humanity committed by a state, a state let by monsters of the worst kind.
