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."

Israelis murder Palestinians, destroy their homes, attack schools and hospitals, shoot children, shoot doctors, bulldoze their refugee camps, etc etc, constantly, for decades and the world turns a blind eye.

Whenever there's an attack from the Palestinians the world loses it's shit.

Of course all deaths are bad but Israel are the oppressors here. Their actions are vile and now Netanyahu has said it's "war". If it's war now what the fuck was it before?

Buddy you summed up my sentiments exactly. It feels like the whole fucking world is suffering from some form of amnesia. What do they expect the Palestinians to do, just accept their own extermination?
