Today one of my best friends wrote me that his families home got bombed to dust and his grandmas sister died in that attack in Lebanon.

Israel is a terrorist state and needs to be stopped.

This is the bad side of having international friends and family, the wars hit much closer to home. If you spent your life in your village and never meet anyone it's much easier to ignore it. Ignorance truly is bliss.

And on top of that I'm a #German citizen and German law forbids me to criticize the state of Israel. So now I'm not allowed to point out that the state of Israel (not the Jews per se mind you) are doing the same to other people what happened to them. This is absurd, stupid and counter productive.

We Germans pledged [Never again!](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Never_again), but the meaning changed now to include only the Holocaust.
