I didn’t want to direct this question to Americans specifically because, at this point, other countries have shown support to Israel in one or the other way. If my country was financing this, I would be taking the streets. Shit, I’m right now in the hospital but all I can think about is protesting anyway just to feel I did something to stop this madness.

Are you doing something about this? Are you feeling unsettled? How do you feel about all this mess?

EDIT: So, buying Chinese stuff takes the USS Gerald Ford to Gaza’s coast. Also, TIL that that chocolate my cousin gave me when she was 20 and I was 5, (delicious stuff!) made me a slavist-ish. The fact remains, this genocide is being paid and supported by taxpayers money; of course, I was hoping that most of us didn’t pay taxes wishing for this. Thank you all for your responses, some of them were hard to swallow.

    I didn’t listen to what Scholz said. But it’s probably easy to show support in a fight against a terror organization.

    I don’t think it is “no matter what”. I think there are quite some conditions. But you don’t say that to a nation that is supposed to be a friend. You pledge allegiance to friends. But being a dependable friend doesn’t extend to literally everything, no matter what.

    And Germany is -in my opinion- more obliged to support people. Not necessarily their nation.
