Germany's anger over Zionist illegal
settlement expansionism
-DR. ABDUL RUFF COLACHAL
_______________
Germany today stands for EU and is a
part of UNSC extra veto regime (P5*plus) and its opposition to Israel has made
things too difficult for an essentially fascist Israel.
It is a fact that Israel has over
extended the so-called holocaust climes, on the one had, by
committing genocide in Palestine, under its brute control, and on
the , by seeking financial and military aid from the Western
Terrocracies, especially USA and Germany, for decades now, making an
illegally formed Israel to become the most developed nation in Mideast and
threatening the Arab nations and Iran with its illegally gotten nukes
Turkey’s rejection Zionist alliance
against the genuine interests of Palestinians for the first time in its history
of mischievous existence in Mideast made Israel unpopular and isolated
globally. Even an apology and compensation from Israel
for its attack on the aid ship from Turkey, killing may peace
activists going to Gaza Strip, has not made any real
improvement in the terror ties.
People of Turkey hate Israel now.
Realizing its own mistakes for
decades in supporting Israel by shielding its crimes against humanity,
Washington has now pushed for a credible Mideast peace in favor of a Palestine
state to come into existence,
Under tremendous pressure from
international community, Israel is feeling increasingly isolated and
it began working for peace deal with besieged
Palestinians, though in its own terms.
Today, most of Western countries have
second thoughts about free and unconditional aid and other help for
Tel Aviv owing to its continued illegal
settlement expansionism inside Palestine and Israel rejection
of western please to end the illegal colony
constructions
The settlements’ issue has put itself
against the West. However, since already Israel has developed into a big
terrocracy with nukes and other arms, it really has no reason to respect or
salute the western donors.
Germany which has pumped huge aid to
Israel, is now annoyed by the Zionist arrogance and unilateralism.
During his visit to Israel in January, German Foreign Minister
Frank-Walter Steinmeier had dreadful firsthand experience of what Zionism
really means. Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman -- with whom
Steinmeier already had a tepid relationship -- read out what is called a
laundry list of complaints to his colleague from Berlin. Simply put,
Israel is angry over German conditions for aid and the Germans are behaving as
one would expect from a close partner. the Germans are behaving as one would
expect from a close partner. Israel is
annoyed Germany is imposing unacceptable conditions.
Relations between Germany, the
big founding stone of EU, and Israel, a triclomatic ally and historical
burden, have been cold and difficult during Chancellor Angela Merkel's three terms
in office. Recent years have seen
several instances of tension between Germany and Israel. Merkel and hawkish
Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu have even shouted at each other on the telephone
while discussing Israeli policies toward Palestinians.
The German-Israel conflict has
deteriorated to the point that some are questioning the special relationship
status between the two countries. According to Israeli government sources,
"special relationship" means that, when in doubt, Germany must side
with Israel. That, though, is far from reality at the moment.
The disconnect began with Germany’s
refusal to support US-Israeli cause against Palestine. Israelis are still
deeply unhappy with Germany's abstention in a vote before the UN
General Assembly in December 2012 to grant the Palestinians the status of a
"non-member observer state”, which cleared way for full membership in due
course. Leaders in Tel Aviv had believed Germany would vote against it.
Berlin's vote was particularly
important because Israel had long seen Germany as a guarantee that the EU would
not be unanimously opposed to Israeli interests.
Martin Schulz, the German president
of the European Parliament, before the Israeli Knesset, criticized the unequal distribution of drinking water between
Israelis and Palestinians, asking "How it can be that an Israeli is
allowed to use 70 liters of water per day, but a Palestinian only 17?".
Several members of parliament left the plenary hall in protest because they
can’t stand any criticism of their fascist policies targeting Palestine..
The EU and Israel recently agreed
that European money for research subsidies cannot flow into the occupied areas. But the Israeli side doesn't want to accept this as the
decision represents a "significant escalation in European measures against
the settlements."
Israel wants assurance that Germany
will resist the next time the Palestinians submit a membership application to
an international body. Lieberman said
Berlin often hides behind European Union positions rather than presenting its
own views.
Israel’s “Holocaust” gimmicks continue to work. As Israel makes
some vague headway in peace deal with Palestine, Merkel seems
anxious to defuse the tensions. To demonstrate how important relations are, she
has called on all of her ministers to travel to Israel next week.
Yet, Markel’s Germany believes that
Israeli's settlement policy represents a decisive barrier to the Mideast peace
process, affecting global peace. It's also something the Chancellor and her
foreign minister don't shy away from saying in public, much to the Israeli's
chagrin.
Berlin views the Netanyahu government
as being both incapable and unwilling when it comes to pushing forward in the
peace process with the Palestinians, while the Israelis feel abandoned by the
Germans.
