      Germany is notorious for murdering millions of Jews. Them taking a pro-Isreal stance is not surprising. Forever guilty and all that.

          Maybe everyone should read more history books (or wiki articles and reputable YouTube channels). 70 years is not ancient history.

            The point is, that historical “guilt” druves them to decisions that end up supporting genocide all over again.

            Germany is a nation powerful enough for politicians to make up their damn mind and do what’s right.

      Israel is a Western conservative investment. They’re a group of brown people, who happen to be the best of the brown people but still brown.
      After WWII we carved out a piece of land in the middle east and gave it to them. Nevermind all the other people already living there though, they’re the bad kind of brown people.
      And how do we keep all those brown people in line?
      Give boatloads of cash and guns to the “tolerable” brown people and keep them fighting amongst themselves. Keep this up for 75 years and you now have a situation that requires you keep dumping money and guns into it otherwise you destabilize the middle east, the region responsible for supplying a majority of the lubricant that keeps the global economy running.
      Destabilize the petroleum supply and you destabilize a major share of the global economy.
      Destabilize the global economy enough and you’ve created the perfect conditions for another world war.

      Tl;Dr:
      The United States has been meddling in Middle Eastern politics for so long that quitting cold turkey would create an uncontrollable situation.

      How do we fix it?
      Beats the hell out of me, I didn’t make this mess and it’s not my job to help them fucking clean it up.
