The German government said on Sunday it was reviewing its hundreds of millions of euros of aid for Palestinians following the biggest attack on Israel in years by Palestinian Islamist group Hamas.

Development Minister Svenja Schulze said the government had always been careful to check that the money was only used for peaceful ends.

“But these attacks on Israel mark a terrible fracture,” she said. “We will now review our entire engagement for the Palestinian territories.”

    No. What I said is “the world is grey”. Palestine has been under occupation for over 70 years. Their country is routinely attacked. The people are being locked up inside a tiny space with little prospects for the future other than Israel walking in and bulldozing everything. Then Israel has been attacked by its neighbors as well. They have a need to arm themselves to exist.

    The reality is both sides are playing the entire situation shittily. You can’t undo years of hurt by both countries.

    You’ll see that this will start a genocide of Gaza. And when those photos of dead kids start arriving, people won’t care. When the death toll in civillians starts rising to unprecedented levels, people won’t care.
