The German Chancellor Sides with the Genocidaires Against Iran.

Jul 09, 2025
On the sidelines of the recent G7 meetings near Banff Canada, Germany’s top official, Chancellor Friedrich Merz, congratulated the government of Israel on June 18 for doing the “dirty work” on behalf of the West. The medium of this “dirty work”is sometimes referred to as the Israel’s “decapitation” invasion of Iran. The invasion included the targeting in their homes of many Commanders of the Iranian Armed Forces. They were murdered, some in their beds, along with many members of thir families.
This surprise act of unprovoked and highly illegal aggressive warfare is identified by the Israeli government as Operation Rising Lion, an elaborate military plan that I believe continues yet.
The Military Tribunal at Nuremberg defined aggressive warfare as the “supreme international crime.” Such an unprovoked military aggression is exemplified by Israel’s decapitation invasion. Aggressive warfare can never be self-defence. Israel fired first, necessitating Iran to go on the attack in order to defend its people from an invasion aimed at destroying the country in its present form..
With the backing of the Trump administration, the initial surprise attack on Iran took place on Friday June the 13th. On June 22, several days after Chancellor Merz’s friendly message to Israel, the US government also breached the UN’s Charter as well as the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. With Trump as the escapade’s primary cheer leader, the US government was sucked into Operation Rising Lion by conducting its own unprovoked bunker-busting bomb operation targeting three research sites in Iran.
Responding to a planted question placed before Merz by a friendly German journalist, the Chancellor responded,
"Yes, Israel did dirty work there. I can only express my utmost respect for the Israeli army and leadership for having the courage to do that. Without their action, we might have seen this regime's terror continue for months and years, then possibly with a nuclear weapon in hand,"

Speaking from his elected position as Germany’s Chancellor, the very post granted to Adolf Hitler by Reichs President Paul von Hindenburg in January of 1933, Merz has embraced and indeed lauded Israel’s surprise invasion of Iran. However one cuts it, the German Chancellor is cozying up closer to the US and Israeli governments during a period when these partnered genocidal polities have been extending their compulsive war mongering ways.
Israeli soldiers with US-backing have pointed their war machine at Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq, Syria, and now at Iran. Iran is seen as by far the biggest threat and prize of them all. For the duration of his unique career as a bombastic politician and Zionist kingpin, Benjamin Netanyahu and the empire builders he represents have been lusting to overturn the Islamic Republic of Iran and transform it into a failed impoverished state run by obedient agents of Zio-America.
Finally in early June Merz briefly joined some of his otherwise consistently compliant European counterparts to express some mild consternation directed at Israel’s decision to exterminate hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, most of them civilians.
Having put on record a single moment of muted criticism, Merz has reverted back to heaping praise on Israel for its military aggressions including the ongoing genocide stretching out across the Middle East in an arc from Gaza to Iran. Germany has been the #2 supplier of weaponry and related supplies necessary to transform the small country into a dynamo of perpetual murder, violence and property destruction.

This US-backed genocide of native Palestinians in Palestine was initiated with the founding of Israel between 1947 and 1949 in the so-called Israeli War of Independence. This genocidal campaign initiated the Nakba whose ruthless homicidal character continues to be on plain display for all the world to see.
https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/background-and-overview-israel-war-of-independence
The government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has consistently and courageously since its inception in 1979 put up a strong resistance politically, diplomatically and materially to oppose the Israel-US efforts to depopulate Palestine of its indigenous inhabitants.
In trying to make good on this commitment, Iran cooperated with its militia allies in the region including Hezbollah and Hamas. Chancellor Merz specifically chastised Hezbollah and Hamas, members of the Axis of Resistance, for their important interventions. These interventions are aimed at slowing down the Jewish supremacist genocide aimed at conquering and dominating so-called “Greater Israel.”
Iran is the core polity of the Axis of Resistance. A prime object of this Resistance is to stand up against the terror states including Germany who have been helping with the genocidal removal of the Palestinians.
Rather than counteracting his country’s genocidal reputation, Marz is drawing attention to the main stereotypes that presently characterize Germany as a former laboratory for anti-Jewish genocide. Israel is at the heart of a terrible experiments presently being advanced to depopulate Palestine of native Palestinians.
Also to be marketed by the business sector in Israel are the hardware, software, education, and research findings empowering Israeli pre-eminence in killing people. Selling this kind of expertise in the taking away life can be very lucrative.
On the one hand, Hamas and Hezbollah and the Houthi Supporters of Allah—Ansarallah— have acted in accordance with the finer spirit of the Genocide Convention which depends on the assertive actions by aroused citizenries and their governing agencies to bring about the enforcement of the Genocide Convention.
On the other hand, the government of Germany, like the puppet governments of many other Western countries, have failed “to enact in accordance with their respective Constitutions, the necessary legislation to give effect to the provisions of the present [genocide] Convention, and, in particular, to provide effective penalties for persons guilty of genocide.” [the UN’s Genocide Convention, 1948, Article V]
So far, who has been found guilty of genocide or even of complicity in genocide? Who, except Yoav Gallant and BiBi Netanyahu, have even been charged? Well that’s a whole story in itself. Anyway, who is responsible for allowing the perpetrators of the very public ongoing genocide to normalize the mass murder of unarmed civilians? How is it that the reporting of the multi-faceted atrocities inflicted on Arabs and now on Persians is finding its way into day-to-day summaries of what life and death is like these days on planet earth?
What crime will be next on the global agenda if the gruesome genocide committed by the Chosenites continues to go unpunished? Is a nuclear war pitting all against all the next step in humanity’s fall into the Hobbesian abyss?
Before Merz came into power the government of Germany went against the government of South Africa, the polity which began the process that led to the original decision of the International Court of Justice to put the government of Israel on trial for violating the Genocide Convention. At the ICJ the German government put forward a defence of Israel’s actions and of Israel’s interpretation of the Genocide Convention.
https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20240113-germany-rejects-genocide-charges-brought-against-israel-by-south-africa/
The current controversies involving the invocation and obstruction of the enforcement of the Genocide Convention obviously have important implications especially for the people and government of Germany. Since 1952 Germany and Israel have grown very close starting with Germany’s payment of compensation and restitution for the Jewish genocide. These payments continue to this day. Does this example serve humanity well? Or does it set a bad precedent concerning a wide array of important issues.?

In congratulating the leadership of Israel for its resort to aggressive warfare against Iran, Chancellor Merz rounded out his pre-prepared response to the friendly German journalist as follows:
I am glad you used the word, “dirty work. This is indeed the dirty work Israel is doing on behalf of us. We too are affected by this regime. This evil regime [mullah regime] has brought us nothing but death and destruction to the world with terror attacks with murder and bloodshed, with Hezbollah, with Hamas, on October 7, 2023 in Israel. And none of this would have been possible without the regime in Tehran.
The video of Merz’s full response to the German journalist is presented in full below. The video is published near the end of Elizabeth Nickson’s essay where she concludes her startling commentary by endorsing Merz’s accusations. Ms. Nickson backs up Chancellor Merz, offering her own note of appreciation to the governments of Israel and the United States for their illegal invasions of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
While much of the response throughout the West to Merz’s astonishing thesis amounts to consent through silence, I was surprised by the simplistic two-dimensional embrace by Ms. Nickson of standard cliches often developed through the subsidized efforts to generate Islamophobia.
Many of these efforts to instigate and encourage hostility towards Muslim people are generated by Jewish family “philanthropies” whose missions include the funding of efforts to stimulate public antipathy toward Islamic people, religion, institutions and culture.

ttps://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2023/07/22/707510/US-Middle-East-Forum-Fuels-Islamophobia-Promotes-Zionism
Is Ms. Nickson a beneficiary of one or more of these “philanthropies?”
I agree with many facets of Nickson’s interpretation of the economic sabotage of Canada and many other western countries. But on the subjects of Israel, Zionism, Islam, and Iran I believe the author of the Substack blog, Absurdistan, is suffering the effects of some major blindspots.
Nickson has opted to join in the trend of encouraging her readers to adopt various forms of generalized Islamophobia. On a strategic day in the midst of a broad media effort to turn public opinion against Muslims generally and against Iran in particular, she made it her priority to demean the religion and behaviour of perhaps a quarter of the world’s population.
Large influxes of Islamic immigration into European and North American countries are of course highly controversial and often destabilizing. But who is behind this phenomena? Who is making the decisions calling on Westerners to host enlarged communities of Muslims?

There is much evidence to demonstrate that Israeli people particularly, and Jews more generally, have been prominent in encouraging the migration of millions of Muslim migrants towards Europe and away from the Jewish state.

Quite clearly Israel has been put in a category of its own where the Israeli government has been supported in its decision that native Palestinians should be targeted for elimination in order to make way for an unchallenged uniformity of Jewish supremacism.
Of course large influxes of multicultural populations are prohibited in Israel whereas the promotion of multiculturalism is prescribed as the appropriate remedy for the supposed ethnocentrism of predominately White and Christian Europeans and North Americans.

Both Chancellor Merz and Elizabeth Nickson engaged in a genre of smear campaign that became very familiar when developed by Zionist neocons and their agents in 2001 when they misrepresented the character of the 9/11 false flag event. The misrepresentation misattributed the massive violence and destruction of 9/11 to the violent actions of Islamic fundamentalists acting alone.

In “How Israel Created the European Refugee Crisis,” were learn
“There is much more to this crisis than can be covered here, but everywhere you look, you can see the footprint of Israel, Jewish organizations and Jewish activists. Whether on the foreign policy front in urging the United States to engage in more war, or on the “humanitarian” front in using NGOs to facilitate refugee movement and permanently resettle Arabs, Africans and Iranians in Europe.
https://xyz.net.au/2021/05/in-depth-how-israel-created-the-european-refugee-crisis/Nationalist activists in America and Europe must confront this reality head on. We must resist calls from shills and right wing Jewish organizations that try to use the natural resentment of Islam created by the migrant crisis to whip up support for Zionist aggression against the Syrian, Iranian and Palestinian people. Such conflicts will only result in more misery and more refugees flowing into Europe, where Israeli and Jewish NGOs will be waiting to welcome them, using the language of humanitarianism to turn the West into a dumping ground for people displaced by Jewish wars.”
Both Chancellor Merz and Elizabeth Nickson engaged in a genre of smear campaign that became very familiar when developed by Zionist neocons and their agents in 2001 when they misrepresented the character of the 9/11 false flag event.
