Following the old imperial German principle of “much enemy, much honor”, the Israeli prime minister is shooting wildly as if he were in a lousy Western saloon. As if it weren't bad enough that the entire population of the Gaza Strip is exposed to the murderous military attacks by the Israeli army, which are absolutely contrary to international law, the bombing terror at any time of the day or night and the genocidal starvation blockade, he is simultaneously bombing Lebanon and its capital and trampling on the agreement on a ceasefire that was reached with difficulty. He has his navy attack Yemen and repeatedly intervenes militarily in Syria.

And now another night-time attack on Iran, which he has declared his “arch-enemy” for years with the approval of his sponsors in the USA and his friends in a number of EU countries. Targeted attacks on residential areas, military installations and even nuclear facilities. Mossad agents had apparently planned the targets in detail beforehand. High-ranking commanders of the Iranian army and Revolutionary Guards were targeted and killed, many of them along with their families - according to the principle of “plaintiff, judge and executioner in one person”.

In order to prevent Iran from developing its own nuclear weapon, Israel is bombing Iranian nuclear facilities. It accepts the associated risk of nuclear contamination of large areas over many years, if not decades. The fact that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has repeatedly assured Iran for years that it is far from enriching uranium for weapons-grade use is being ignored, as is the intention recently announced by US President Trump to resume nuclear talks with Iran. This was even one of the important topics in Trump's most recent phone call with Putin, in which he asked the Russian president to mediate. Or was it all just a bluff? After all, the White House had been briefed before the overnight raid on Tehran, and Trump was quoted as using the word “excellent” when commenting on the attack.

What right does the state of Israel have to decide on nuclear research in other countries - the only state in the region to possess nuclear weapons? How can Netanyahu, who is wanted by the International Criminal Court on suspicion of genocide, allow himself to stretch out his bloodstained fingers to other countries and hypocritically refer to the “Holocaust”, the genocide of the German fascists against the Jews? How long can he, who is himself on trial in his own country, continue to act with the approval of governments that have written the “defense of Western values” on their shields and that try to justify military attacks that clearly violate all international law with the “right to self-defense”?

How much longer will Western politicians like Ms. von der Leyen, Mr. Macron or Mr. Merz allow themselves to cover up any military escalation by the state of Israel and then immediately warn the attacked side of a “new escalation”? How far can hypocrisy coupled with shamelessness be allowed to escalate? It is time to put a stop to these machinations!
