The federal government has stopped exporting weapons to Israel, which can be used in Gaza. This never has been there has to initiate the end of the Benjamin Netanyahus era.
In the official declaration of Chancellor Friedrich Merz on the armaments import stop, there is historical: “Under these circumstances, the federal government does not approved until further notice of arms that can be used in the Gaza strip.” You want to read the sentence a second time. But it is true: for the first time in general, Germany fails to support an Israeli government.
Nowhere in the world is rightly understanding of Israel’s struggle for existence than in Germany. Nowhere is the reluctance greater to blame his state and military leadership of the choice of their means in the fight against bloody terrorists. No nation hurts to distance itself from an Israeli government even a tiny piece. At first glance, the fact that it now happens that Germany has to withdraw its military support contradicts his state rush: wanting to guarantee Israel’s security at any time.
The second look, however, makes it clear: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahus Wühen has convinced the federal government that the moment has been achieved when a difference between “Israel” and “the Israeli government” has to be made. Germany turned away from Netanyahu, not from Israel. That is the jumping point. Netanyahu is responsible for this.
One could object: From a German perspective, this differentiation comes too late. From Netanyahu’s point of view, however, it is a disaster, because: other states may conclude: If even Germany Netanyahus won’t go away, then we can and no longer have to. Netanyahu caused this development itself. Therefore, she has to initiate the end of his political career.
In the midst of the Arab hemisphere, within the scale of regimes such as Iran or fanatics such as Hamas, the Hisbollah and the Huthis in Yemen, who trend for him after annihilation, Israel must be able to build on reliable partners. However, even if even Germany, the self -image of which defined itself over generations by responsibility for the territory of the Shoa, can no longer differ more than to actually face Netanyahu and his rabid cabinet, then it is no longer wearable.
Of course, Netanyahu was forced to act in October 2023 after the nameless brutal attack by Hamas. Not least because military management and secret services had not foreseen and prevented this bloodbath under his responsibility. This failure brought him under pressure, and Netanyahu reacted with the greatest possible hardness. Also to ensure his political survival, he completely covered it. So Gaza became what it is today: a hell.
So he himself brought “these circumstances”, of which the Federal Government’s declaration is mentioned. You mean the ruthless procedure of the Israeli government not only against Hamas terrorists, but against all people in the Gaza Strip.
