    This is idiotic. Gandhi hated that Pakistan split off and said that he recognized their existence but would never recognize their “right” to exist.

    That’s not even an international policy. Does Castile have a right to exist? Does Kashmir? Does Kurdistan? Why doesn’t Germany demand the same for others?

      Because of our history with Israel? I am all against the genocide against palestinians but defending israels right to exist is a good thing

        Why add this to te immigration screeming process while they are actively committing war crimes, stealing land and murdering kids?

        germany has managed to land on te wrong side of history twice in the same conversation.

        Blindly standing with a group becuase germany feels they have given their own atrocious history.

        If “their right to exist” weren’t used to mean “their right to take land from Palestinians and create settlements in land they took through violence” it would be a bit simpler to agree with the statement, but the foundation of Israel itself has always been on pretty shakey ground. The only reason Israel has a right to exist is because it’s impractical that they’d leave at this point. They should leave the land they’ve stolen though.

        our history with israel is the third reich and israel having friendly relations. We are continuing nazi tradition by supporting israel.
