such rules were becoming redundant in a world where rogue states broke them with impunity and allies did not enforce them.

Well then fucking enforce them, you fucking Pimmel!

"In a world where i refuse accountability, we can't have accountability" is not the good argument he might think it is. Fucking complicit stupid criminals.

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.

I largely agree. I) Since May 2025 many parties stopped their blind support of Israel II) but still they do way too little and still supply weapons.

Merz is dog of Israel and USa

A pitiful, embarrassing dog at that

Germany’s lucky it’s even a country, shut the fuck up

Very disappointing that no one will step up to threaten world peace though nuclear destruction of nazis if the nazis don't shut up, and stop violation of international law. Certainly, coups of nazis would be more popular than destroying Iran.

Merz, what international law? You have a wanted ICC fugitive in your country right now. There is no international law, only iron law.

Yeah because Iran and Iranians are from Mars I guess.

[–] TraipsersWill@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

And Merz is from Jupiter- a large ball of gas.

Then what's the point of it?
