Kommentar von Honestly Concerned
"...“Year after year, we hear condemnations of anti-Semitism and so forth, but when it comes down to it, these are all empty words,” said Sacha Stawski, organizer of the biennial Israel Congress in Frankfurt and director of the watchdog group, Honestly Concerned. “In practice, Germany has chosen to court the dangerous anti-Semitic Iranian regime, which reiterates its wish to eradicate Israel virtually on a daily basis; refuses to outlaw the terrorist organization Hezbollah; and so forth. And likewise, Germany has chosen to either align itself with Israel’s worst enemies or at most to abstain in the vast majority of the endless number of one-sided anti-Israel resolutions.”...
...Despite the AfD’s pro-Israel vote, the Israeli embassy has not changed its position towards the party, which reflects the Israeli government’s policy not to engage with European right-wing parties. Stawski, an AfD critic, is likewise not swayed. Many German Jews believe that the AfD courts and overlooks Nazi sympathies among its voters.
“It does not soften my stand towards the AfD one bit,” said Stawski. “In fact, I believe that the AfD vote in this case harmed the overall subject, and that it made it more difficult for the government parties to vote in favor with the AfD. I think they’re instrumentalizing Israel once again.”..."
Germany’s Free Democrats’ attempt to curb anti-Israel voting patterns fail in the Bundestag, but does it reflect the true opinions of parliament members, and will the right-wing party’s positive support of Israel change the Jewish community’s attitudes towards it?
