That is pathetic and shame on the SPD. A murderer is a murderer and I do not give a shit about their religious background and history. I refuse to vote for the AfD and Linke, but sometimes the SPD pisses me off.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Because of nostalgia then?
Germany sure does love their genocides.
uh...
excuse me but...
WHAT THE GOD DAMN FUCK?
This I would say shows that they actually learned nothing from that experience. If there was anyone in the international community that should arrest yahu on the spot it's Germany. I'm curious did Germany extend the same to the Hamas leader the ICC put a warrant out on? otherwise I'd say they're guilty of playing favourites. Lets go one further, how about Putin? Is it only b/c he is Jewish? then that's just discrimination.
As a German, this seems like a cruel joke to me - "Because of our Nazi history, we are committed to protecting against an ICC warrant the person currently performing a genocide, establishing camps to "concentrate" refugees and then even bombing said camps".
Fuck our government. This is about a war criminal and in my opinion it's absolutely furthering antisemitism to allow the Israeli government to continue these atrocities. The best way to reduce antisemitism is to have the Israeli government commit less atrocities.
Yeah they took the wrong lesson from ww2. Its not about jewish people and antisemitists, its about innocent people and people who commit genocides. Both jewish people and non-jews can be genociders and innocent people.
it is sad that this even needs to be said... Fully agreed..
And its Nazi present, apparently Great move using the Holocaust to justify another genocide though. Really shows how much was learnt there.
My guess is that they are saying this because in September 2023 they made a deal with Israel to buy their missile defense system. Instead of buying a European version with the French mind you, but that's a whole other stupid fucking can of worms.
Well, October 2023 passed by and then it got a bit trickier over time to support Israel. But besides demands to maintain humanitarian care for Gazans, my government has done nothing of substance to stop supporting Israel. It is beyond shameful, this decision will haunt us in the future when Israel inevitably loses its position and we have to answer why we are so stupid to buy from Israeli right wing extremists (and the US) to begin with instead of starting EU projects if we have to. Not to mention the biggest thing, supporting open genocide.
We always talk big about EU stronk, but I can't help to sympathize with the French (and other EU govs) when they are pissed at my country. We have taken the call every time the US wants something instead of considering European interests plus have run austerity for 20 years now in every government in the time period. We have a real knack for getting ourselves into a dependency of big powers, even Russia with their gas. We lack any vision how to fix our problems and build a strong European union while being the biggest member. Meanwhile the right builds it's own vision, fortress europe. Thanks Merkel, thanks Scholz, you're really good at managing.
All this to say my government sucks because they won't arrest Bibi. Fuck that guy and frankly fuck Israel for committing a genocide. Thank you for listening to my Ted talk.
How ridiculous is it to rely an army on a missile system from a colony which Germany needs to kiss the floor for? If they can't even count on Israel to deliver the weapons unless they support their war crimes what is the point of relying on that.
Arresting one man and arresting millions as slave labor and then gassing them are two very different things.
I can see their point but it's a bad comparison. This seems to me to basically be a PR decision. I don't know how much was backing Netanyahu before, but I think it would be a better look if they arrested him to stop the genocide.
"We wont arrest Netanyahu because of our Nazi History, and the fact that it warms our blood to see a faithful brother of the Reich rise up and continue Hitlers work. Sieg Heil, Netanyahu!"
Ah...so they're continuing with their support of the evil... They learned nothing... Are we sure they aren't Democrats?
Wink 😉! C'mon fool, c'mon over to Germany! You won't be arrested because of our history which doesn't relate to anything you might be doing currently...
I'd wish this was ploy, but frankly they just lack any back bone...
No one told me that Jews have a crime pass in Germany. I need to start planning cooler vacations.
If you are an anti-zionist Jew in Germany you'll face a brunt of repressions. German "anti antisemitism" comissioners even go as far as calling anti-zionist Jews "allegedly jewish", thereby deciding who are "good" and "bad" Jews.
Ah yes Germans judging how Jewish people are for....reasons. Never change Dooshland

New plan, convert to Judaism, move to Germany, rob a bank, and get away Scott free.
No, no. This only works if you commit a genocide.
Move to Germany and slaughter everyone in AfD
Are they saying they're choosing to continue that history?
Yes
Game recognizes game.
Former genocidaire recognizes current genocidaire.
Since when is a religion a defense against war crimes
Since religion was invented.

Unfortunately international media is not capturing the gravity of the German government winding around and refusing to say they abide by the ICC decision.
Here is todays gov. press conference in German. Maybe Youtube provides auto-translation. I think the faces and the way they talk can be understood even without knowing German.
It's incredible how they can say nothing while speaking for 30 minutes. Gotta appreciate the very critical press though, refreshing to see. Where I live the press will ask what they had for lunch and then leave it at that.
Oh they've elevated it to an art form. They did actually say quite a lot while saying so little though, always pay close attention to what they're comfortable talking about (such as Germany's stance towards the ICC and the rule of law) vs. what they're not comfortable talking about (what that stance implies, concretely, in this situation). If you think that's unsatisfactory then they will, I quote, take notice of that, but they won't humour you and spell out what can be inferred so you (or rather press) have a soundbite that would cause the foreign service diplomatic headaches.
And, yes, the journalists have also elevated making them squirm to an art form, to make sure that the interviewed officials don't waffle when it is merely convenient, not expedient (at least according to the officials). Also of note the conference is run by journalists, not officials.

The Nazis killed more Russians than Jews. Does that mean you would also not arrest Putin?
If you want to pull out of the Rome Statute, just do that, motherfuckers, and spare us the lecture.
Otherwise, fuck you and the high horse you rode in on.
While it is probably true that he won't get arrested, the headline is quite misleading: they're currently avoiding to answer the question, because the German also has a historical responsibility to adhere to the ICJ.
They want to enable Israeli imperialism while not looking like they didn't learn anything from being the reason the ICJ exists.
