The German government said on Sunday it was reviewing its hundreds of millions of euros of aid for Palestinians following the biggest attack on Israel in years by Palestinian Islamist group Hamas.

Development Minister Svenja Schulze said the government had always been careful to check that the money was only used for peaceful ends.

“But these attacks on Israel mark a terrible fracture,” she said. “We will now review our entire engagement for the Palestinian territories.”

    Buddy you summed up my sentiments exactly. It feels like the whole fucking world is suffering from some form of amnesia. What do they expect the Palestinians to do, just accept their own extermination?

      I mean you can fight back against your oppressors without massacring civilians, many of whom aren’t even Isrealis

      I am not sure I understand the logic behind fighting a war of extermination when the other side is stronger and can actually exterminate you

        The logic is you hide within the general population and count on the other side to be “more civilized”. Or you’re enough of a sociopath to want the response to hit the general population to radicalize people just trying to live their lives
