The bitter irony is that it is not the far-right that is destroying Germany’s liberal order, but liberals themselves.
The German government’s renewed pledges to keep on aiding and abetting "Israel’s" war of extermination in Gaza are yet another stain on the moral track record of a nation whose superlative blood-stained history is currently being rivaled by "Israel".
Palestinians, Arabs, and Muslims are widely regarded as the new Jews of Germany, a nation which grossly exaggerates the threat antisemitism poses to its most privileged and protected minority.
The glee-laden reactions to "Israel’s" terrorist attacks on Lebanon coming out of Germany are the latest manifestation of the country’s unambiguous hatred toward Arabs, Muslims, and Palestinians.
If Germany truly felt responsible for its past, it would immediately end its shameful support for "Israel’s" genocide in the present.
History will once again judge Germans harshly for the active participation of their elected leaders and the military-industrial complex they answer to in what can only be described as "Israel's" "Final Solution" to the Palestinian question.
Euro-Western discourse, designed to uphold global inequities and oppressive structures exclusively benefitting Western capitalist interests, routinely fails to understand the psychology behind anticolonial violence.
If there is one country that should be boycotted, for its devious supporting role in facilitating the annihilation of the Palestinian people, its pro-war megalomania with regards to Ukraine, and for its dangerous shift towards the far right, it is Germany.
The wider the state casts its pro-Zionist dragnet, extending its offender profile beyond Palestinians, Arabs and Muslims to include Jews, university students, teachers, and even uninvolved social services providers, the faster Germans are waking up to the authoritarian remodelling of their state and the realisation of who the real enemy is.
The state-sponsored persecution of Jews in Germany in the name of combating antisemitism has punched holes in the nation’s own mendacious narrative of antisemitism being something that is imported from the Arab and Muslim world by way of immigrants and refugees.
