German government to review aid for Palestinians following Hamas attack
Reuters ^ | 8th October 2023

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."

Germany would discuss with Israel how development projects in the region could best be served, and coordinate with international partners, said the minister for German Chancellor Olaf Scholz's centre-left government.

Some German lawmakers, from the opposition conservatives in particular, called for an end to the aid.

"All of Europe, all 27 states, must now say: we need a new start and we will no longer finance terrorists," said Armin Laschet, chancellor candidate for the conservatives at the last federal election, calling for an end to EU cooperation with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who is based in the West Bank.

Gregor Gysi, a prominent member of the opposition Left party argued against such a move, saying Hamas, and not all Palestinians, were responsible for the attack.

Keep paying the rabid Palestinian monkeys to rape and kill your own citizens, Germany.

Or you can cheer while the Israelis use thermobarics on Gaza till it's a parking lot, and the vermin has been removed to the next life.

Always rmember that even th Arab and other Muslim states would not accept Palestinians in their nations for their violent mindset and hatred taught from childhood up. Wherever they are they cause trouble and violence.

The German Government doesn’t need to review aid for terrorists. It needs to cut it off now. And then the German Government needs to train assassins to take out the terrorist leadership.

Well, they may have been trying to finance infrastructure.

But that should end now. Not even humanitarian aid to the Gazans.

I read it as “renew” which is probably more accurate. What a twisted world we live in.

They are just “reviewing”. Should have been a hard stop with any terrorist linked thugs tossed from the country.

You didn’t fall for the BS that we had persecuted Muslims, which in fact we had not done?
