Germany’s Guilt Complex Fuels Gaza’s Firepower
The Independent reports Germany has ended restrictions on arms exports to Israel. Chancellor Olaf Scholz's government, facing legal challenges, affirmed its commitment to Israel's 'security.' This comes as Germany remains the second-largest arms supplier to Netanyahu's government, after the US. ( The Independent ) One might recall the International Court of Justice's provisional measures on
preventing genocide, yet Berlin appears more concerned with optics than actual cessation of hostilities. While domestic courts debate procedural legality, the practical output is more bombs, more bullets, and more 'self-defense' for an operation that has displaced 1.7 million Palestinians and killed over 37,000 in Gaza, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health. It seems Germany's historical burden
is now measured in weaponized generosity.
