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.”

    I can’t help but to think about the mental gymnastics required to support Ukraine while screaming about how Palastine is actually evil and needs to be stopped. Do they honestly think Ukraine hasn’t killed Russian civilians during the war? War is messy and when your options are to fight or face annihilation the answer is always the same, and it’s always messy.
