This article doesn't have a link to what Germany did. Kinda important when this whole piece is just a response that talks about how bad Germany was in the 1900's.
Here you go:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herero_and_Namaqua_genocide
Up to 110.000 people killed through massacres, deliberate starvation and in concentration camps.
I actually meant recently and which prompted this response.
Well, Germany even has officially recognized the genocide, as a genocide. I know which people profit from the war. It's Putin, and the Iran leaders. But there you have a chance to go to prison to talk openly, also if Trump wins he would properly stop aid to Ukraine, which is a war with killing people too. It's hypocritical.
Not just recognized, but:
The agreement meets the three demands that Namibia made in the negotiations with Germany:
- The recognition of the crimes against the Herero and Nama as genocide,
- an apology from the German state and a request for forgiveness from the Namibian state and the descendants of the victims
- Compensation payments.
Germany will have to be ashamed of itself once again very soon, but this time no one will be able to say 'I didn't know'.
Right, because Germany is acting so awfully one-sided. Do I need to remind you that Germany is the 2nd largest contributor to Palestinian foreign aid? And that it has on numerous occasions criticised Isreal for its way of waging war? But yeah make this entirely black and white and act like this is David versus Goliath
Germany hardly criticised Israel for how it wages war. Instead Germany is still one of the few countries left calling for "humanitarian fire pauses" instead of a ceasefire. It is the German government that cracked down extensively on protests against the genocide and that threatens to deport people if they don't pledge allegiance to Israel. It is the german public broadcasting that is simply not reporting on Israeli war crimes, and that didnt report for month on the number of Palestinians killed by Israel, while at every occasion talking about the 07. October.
Now the German government came out harshly criticising the charge by South Africa, instead of waiting for the court to reach its decision. The aid that did go to Palestine is laughable compared to the military aid Israel receives.
Germany debates tying citizenship to Israel loyalty - Deutsche Welle - December 8 2023
Saxony-Anhalt, a state in Germany has done what many around the country are calling for: If you want to be a citizen of Germany, you need to pledge allegiance to Israel. The legality of this remains unclear.
Effective immediately, those applying forGerman citizenship in the east-central state of Saxony-Anhalt must declare their support for Israel's right to exist. This "commitment" is part of new language that state interior minister, Tamara Zieschang, informed relevant authorities about in a ministerial decree this week.
Failing to do so would deny naturalization to foreigners who otherwise fulfill the necessary conditions for obtaining German nationality. Under the new guidelines, applicants would have to sign a declaration that they "recognize Israel's right to exist and condemn any efforts directed against the existence of the state of Israel."
Palestinian foreign aid is a stopgap for Palestinians not being allowed to have their own country with a real economy. After defending Israel on the international (and domestic, seeing as they've been arresting protesters left and right) stage it's the least they could do to give Palestinians something to eat since they're the ones denying them the right to feed themselves.
I pledge allegiance to the flag, of the united......
