Germany: Broadcaster revises code of conduct to support Israel's right to exist
Arutz Sheva ^ | 17/9/22 | Toby Axelrod

Germany’s public broadcaster, Deutsche Welle, has revised its code of conduct to require support for Israel’s right to exist, and employees who fail to do so may now be fired.

The move announced Sept. 1 preceded a court order last week that DW reinstate a former employee fired who was fired after the company determined she had made comments about Israel that could be construed as antisemitic. In all, seven employees from the broadcaster’s Arabic service were let go last year on similar grounds, and so far two have successfully sued DW for reinstatement.

The revised conduct code appears to be timed to strengthen the company’s hand in such cases in the future. DW spokesperson Vera Tellmann told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in an email that the company “is awaiting the reasons for the verdict in one case and reserves the right to take further legal action.”

This is nuts. But Europe has been nuts for over a hundred years and is not improving. So, oh, well. At least the Germans are no longer mean, just stupid.

I’d say that if you require some news organization to validate
your “right to exist”... since you clearly DO exist...

Well then you must be pretty dang weak.

“Please, Mister News Man.. say I exist! Or I’ll be extra sad!”

I didn’t know Israel was a German broadcasting company. Of course, we do control everything. But it’s ironic that the German company has this ideological litmus test about Israel, and here I am in Israel, saying how dumb it is.

here I am in Israel

Is that where you fetched up after fleeing the United States?

I thought you were in Angola or someplace.

I don't think folks who ran in terror away from America ought to be posting here.

Clearly they are cowards and Quislings and ought not be heard from.

So what was it again that caused you to run in a panic away from America?

Go post in Angola or someplace.

There is no such thing, in the affairs of nations, as a “right to exist”.

Any such supposed right must have a plan for enforcement.

If the plan is, “kill anyone who objects, and don’t stop until no one objects”, fine. That’s how the US acquired the Dakotas. Whether we plan to keep the Southwest and California utilizing this simple concept remains to be seen - based on current events, it doesn’t look good.

“I don’t think folks who ran in terror away from America ought to be posting here.”

That’s nice. I guess burying your head in the sand and staying put but doing nothing while the country goes to hell is somehow preferable.

Clearly they are cowards and Quislings and ought not be heard from.

A Quisling refers to someone who remains at his post when his country is invaded, and collaborates with the enemy. It’s origin is Vidkun Quisling, the then Prime Minister of Norway, who collaborated with the Nazis when they took over. By definition, my leaving the United States, for whatever reason, cannot be deemed the act of a Quisling.

As for “cowardice,” a coward would not be living so close to the Syrian and Lebanese border as I am.

So what was it again that caused you to run in a panic away from America?

1. My son’s upcoming nuptials in Israel.
2. A promise I made to myself at a young age, that I would stay in Israel when I came there for the first time.
3. The incoming Obama Administration’s agenda, which I was convinced would lead to hyper inflation, totalitarian oppression, and violence targeting Jews as scapegoats of the hyper inflation. I was right. It just took ‘til Obama’s third term to actually happen, but happening it is.

How’s the border invasion going? You making money off it? Or are you just getting your pick of the smuggled in senorita sex slaves as payment for whatever you do for the smugglers, and happy with that?

Just do you know, as stated in the article, this policy is targeted at the Muslims who have invaded Germany. Like blacks in the USA, they flock to gubmint jobs and are rapidly taking over the machinery of government at all levels.

This move excludes most of the Muslims who refuse to sign the policy.

Actual German nationalist have very little problem with Israel.

And here is the latest waste of bandwidth from humblefumbler, winner of the Puckered Pink A-hole award (with "Chronic Sidebars"). He is an abysmally ignorant congenital jerk who, although lacking minimal understanding of various subjects, nevertheless pollutes otherwise good threads with his nastiness.

People emigrate to Israel mostly for religious reasons, as the very land is holy for Jews. They are going to Israel because they want to live in the Holy Land, not because they are fleeing the U.S. or wherever they are emigrating from.

And who appointed YOU as arbiter of who should post here? Why don't YOU go post in Angola, genius? Angola Prison, that is.

I wouldn't expect actual German nationalists of any flavor to be a factor. My initial comment alludes to "official" Germany committing suicide.
