Immigrants must understand Germany's "special relationship" with Israel and "know how Holocaust denial is punished" in order to get citizenship under Germany's new naturalization test. From Middle East Eye, "Germany: New citizenship test to include questions on Holocaust and Israel's founding": Questions around Jewish life in Germany, the Holocaust and Berlin's relationship with Israel will soon form part of Germany's naturalisation test, the country's Interior Minister Nancy Faeser said on Tuesday.Faeser said that Germans need to recognize that they're uniquely evil: "The German crime against humanity of the Holocaust results in our special responsibility for the protection of Jews and the protection of the State of Israel," she resolved. "This responsibility is part of our identity today." She argues that anyone who wants to be a German citizen must know "what that means and acknowledge German's responsibility."Of course, this is all being done while Israel is actively committing genocide in Gaza and trying to starve a million and a half Palestinians to death. In December, the German state of Saxony-Anhalt mandated that immigrants applying for citizenship must sign a pledge of support for Israel's "right to exist" and be screened for "anti-Semitic attitudes." As the Middle East Eye noted, pro-Palestinian speech was effectively banned at German universities in the wake of October 7 and Berlin criminalized the slogan "From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free." Of course, immigrants seeking German citizenship can trash Germans all they like -- that's not an issue! Follow InformationLiberation on Twitter, Facebook, Gab, Minds and Telegram. |
