Tbh. I thought this was a clickbait title, but it holds. The only positive thing is that German press gives him shit for it as well. Germany really is fucked at the moment when it comes to politics.

This is the guy that very openly said Germany had a duty to support a nation committing a Genocide because of the dominant ethnicity of that nation.

This shit is pretty close to the NAZI mindset and nowhere else in Europe - not even the in countries with actual far-right governments - would the head of government actually say something like this.

Mind you, in Germany even the Green Party supports Israel based on exactly the same reason as Merz gave, so having a "Race justifies anything" mindset (a core element of NAZI thinking) is a much broader problem in Germany than just this guy.
