Ah, yes, the Jerusalem Post spin on things …

It’s interesting that mainstream TV news in the country I’m in - Portugal - was (finally) literally outright saying those people were “kidnapped by the Israeli Authorities in international waters”.

You will notice that the BBC, of course, just says the flotilla was “intercepted” and these people were “detained”, never once calling the victims actually “victims” (Really! Search for it in the text: the word does not appear once) and instead calling them “activists” and “participants”.

Hungary and Poland both just emerged from their very own far-right populist period.

Meanwhile Britain supposedly did too and then elected a supposedly “center” - “left” government and instead of it getting better this shit just got worse. Oh, and the Brexiter Tories were apparently not Right-wing enough for a large fraction of the population so Reform UK rose.

Even the “left” in Britain are nutters compared to all of Western, Northern and Southern Europe.

I’ll give you Russia, though - it is indeed comparable to Britain in terms of having 19th century morals.

There are many different forms of sex people can have in public toilets and so restricting them to just one kind wouldn’t be equal.

As far as I can tell the UK is the only country in the whole of Europe following America down this specific insane moral and political rabbit-hole.

It’s like they tried to get into the XXI century, failed and decided to go back to their time of greatness, the Victorian Era.

Have you already forgotten the Snowden Revelations???

Well, they’ve been murdering Journalists in far larger numbers than the rest of the World combined.

Zionism is not grounded on Nationalism, it’s grounded on Ethnic Supremacy.

This is why it’s far more calously violent towards those they see as being from lesser races (openly called “vermin” by some Zionists).

Traditional Fascism, like in Italy or Spain, is grounded on Nationalism so is way less likely to do things like activelly target and murder children like Israel did in Gaza (were, for example, they had snipers killing children playing at home).

If you want a present day example of this kind of thing “just” anchored on rabid nationalism, look at Russia - murderous, but they generally don’t go around mass murdering Ukranian civilians, much less calously murdering Ukranian children. For all the shit Russia does, they’re not actually trying to wipe out a people, they’re trying to conquer it.

Zionism is in a different class of ideology: the same as NAZIsm.

(Israel itself is openly an ethnic supremacist country, with its Constitution explicitly saying that Jews and only Jews can be Israeli Nationals, so non-Jews born in Israel if they do manage to get it - as it’s not an inherent right for those born there - can get Israeli Non-Jewish Citizenship, which is not the same as Nationality in Israel and does not grant the same rights. Maybe your confusion comes from there - Zionist is not about the Nation, it’s all about the Race, and as it just so happens the nation of Israel is also all about the very same race)

Well, sometimes the Supreme Court in the UK does do the right thing, though only after people have been Harassed-by-Court for months or even years and in practice only for people with enough money to afford the solicitor and barrister fees to take their case all the way up to it.

Sometimes it’s even worse - when the Law it’s actually in the books it might mean going all the way up to the European Court Of Human rights (which is not an EU organisation and still applies to the UK as long as they’re a member of the European Convention On Human Rights).

The system of check and balances is at best there only for people with enough money to afford it. (Though I suppose they could do as one of my family members did in my home country and actually get a Law Degree and take the case herself all the way up to the ECHR, though in the UK I believe even the cheapest Universities are pretty expensive)

Then, of course, there’s the other side of the injustice - actually punishing the guilty: the Crown Prosecution Service and other entities which prosecute crimes are pretty arbitary about who they go after as they can simply say “it’s not in the Public Interest” and that’s justification enough not to prosecute, with one’s wealth being inverselly correlated to one’s likelihood of being prosecuted (something indirectly admited by a previous head of the Serious Fraud Office - who are tasked with not just large scale Fraud but also Corruption - when they admitted they could only afford to prosecute as single large case per year) and the same for appealing even court rulings such as the one of the High Court Judge who, when convicting a public school educated criminal (read: so almost certainly somebody who is upper middle class or rich) for the crime of Fraud for the second time, sent him away with a veredict of Guilty but no penalty with the reasoning that “the shame of a conviction is punishment enough”.

Exactly!

You’re assuming Britain has genuine Rule Of Law rather than the Law being a tool to enforce the will of a few, a tall assumption.

And the muppets over there claim they live in a country with Rule Of Law…

When the BBC is so far transformed into a Propaganda outlet that they relentlessly deploy misinformation, cherry-picking, censorship and heavily biased framing and even reporting to support the XXI century version of the NAZIs whilst they commit multiple Genocides then, clearly, Murdock has already won.

From Europe I definitelly want to see this shit go full on fucked up, since it’s the only way the Corrupt and Kompromat-controlled politicians around here stop doing what America and Israel wants because they are fucked either way as even the most selfish and unprincipled of voters will fuck them up in the voting booths if cost of living goes crazy.

We’re already seeing that the crooks not already looking for ways to look less pro-Israel and pro-America are those in the EU Commission and in other EU positions which are not elected.

Since they’re almost certainly the next one’s to reach that status, it absolutelly makes sense for at least China to accelerate the fall of the current World-level Empire if they can do it with little or no negative impact for themselves.

Having a decaying America bleed itself and the goodwil of its allies for years against the prickly wall which is Iran is an optimal outcome for China.

Russia, I doubt it, mainly because Russia has no chance in hell of becoming an Imperial power, plus having a military whose capacities were seriously overestimated being bled by an adversary they seriously underestimated as happening to America in Iran, is what has been happening to Russia in Ukraine.

Don’t let the door hit you on your way out!

How is “The American Military will leave your country” a threat?

People have rights.

Social constructs have no rights.

What you’re missing in your interpretation of your own example is the consideration that the right to exist, to be free and to chose how they rule of the people currently in the territory of Canada is what would be under threat by Trump, not some imaginary “right” of Canada. Canada should not exist due to any inherent “right” of nation states, it should exist if and only it helps uphold the rights of people.

The social construct called Israel in overall does not uphold the rights of people: sure it does support some rights for some specific people, but it suppresses rights for far more people than it supports, especially the most important one of all - the right to life. The social construct called Israel as it is now should not exist because it oppresses more people than it supports and it’s the people who have rights.

Good.

That said my point still stands that the “support” for the Jewish People in Germany was never a visible element of a move away from the way of thinking which was the foundation of NAZIsm, it was only a façade whilst the Racism remained unabatted and the authoritarian tendencies were only mildly suppressed, as demonstrated by the totally different treatment extended to other victims of the Holocaust such as the Roma People, by the continuation of Race-centric treatment of people when supposedly moving away from the NAZI years into the “making of amends” to the victims (rather than a race-agnostic victim-centric view) and by the repeated use of Force in Germany to suppress political dissent such as llustrated by this law (and the countless videos of the politzei’s treatment of anti-Genocide demonstrators).

At least at the level of the political elites Germany is not a modern liberal nation, it’s a Racist nation with a very limited and mainly performative bit of “liberalism” (in such a fertile field of Race-centric and Authoritarian thinking, no wonder the growth of the AfD)

Germany (and the rest of the West, but Germany is significantly worse than most, IMHO) needs to move away from from the Normalized Racism of using people’s ethnicity as a determinant of their worth and deserved treatment and towards Humanist views, as well as away from creeping Authoritarianism like this.

It was and is so easy for the Zionists in Israel to manipulate Germany exactly because the latter country doesn’t really follow Humanist values (it just puts on a show of being a “modern” “liberal” country) hence the reaction to the Zionist Genocide was not the Humanist reaction (your actions define your worth and thus our support, and those who mass murder civilians don’t get our support), it was the extreme Racist reaction (the Kanzelier proclaiming “we unwaveringly support the Jewish Nation” at a point when the list of murdered babies 1 year old or younger in Gaza was already 17 pages long) and the Racism and Authoritarianism have carried on since, hence the continued forcefull suppression of anti-Genocide views, including this law.

And this shit wasn’t just the CDU and SDP, even the Greens had a Race-centric take rather than a Humanist one, holding a position which can only be derived from the belief that Race is more important than even Human Life.

All this to say that the change that has to happen for Germany to enter the XXI century is a lot deeper and fundamental than the miniscule step of stopping the “unwavering support for Jewish Nation”.

ONE MILLION Roma were murdered by the NAZIs during the Holocaust, alongside 3 million Jews.

Notice how German politicians don’t “unwaveringly support” the Roma. In fact, they don’t even talk about them.

The “change” in Germany after NAZIsm wasn’t the end of the idea that ethnicity defines how somebody should be treated or that some ethnicities are “good” and others are “bad”, it was merelly moving the Jewish People from the “bad” ethnicity to the “good” ethnicity column.

A consistent and non-racist “correction” for Germany’s past would see all of the actual victims of NAZIsm and their descendants being compensated for it, be they Roma, Jews, Handicaped, Homosexuals, Communists or from any other group, and ONLY the victims, not this Racist bullshit of claiming that all individuals of an entire and very specific ethnicity are all deserving of support even though the vast majority of them are in no way form or shape related to the victims of the NAZIs except for being born in the same ethnicity, whilst not doing it for those from other equally targetted groups (something I emphasize because it really shows how even the supposed “making of amends” is done in a Racist way).

This shit we see in Germany is not a genuine change from the way of thinking of the past, it’s just in the face of defeat doing the minimum required adjustment to the defeated political ideology to please the victors, which was moving a specific ethnicity which is influential in the main winner country of the war from untermenschen to ubermenschen, without doing it for any other targetted ethnicity, much less actually reforming the way of thinking about and acting towards people as “ethnics” that underpinned NAZIsm or even, as we see in this law, refuse to use force to silence dissenting opinions.

The “change” in Germany is mainly changing the façade, not at all the foundations - i.e. image management, not reform - hence how right now the open racism of “unwaveringly supporting” a genocidal nation with no other reason than the dominant ethnicity there and the choice of using force against those who disagree such as this law are right alongside:

Everything related to the two world wars and the role they played in it is subject to censorship and oversight, to a degree that’s almost comical if it weren’t real.
