Drop Site today has this snippet: "Germany withdraws support for Israel in ICJ genocide case: Germany has withdrawn its support for Israel in proceedings at the International Court of Justice over the accusations of genocide brought to the court by South Africa, reversing its earlier plan to intervene as a third party. Berlin had previously dismissed the case as “baseless” and as a “political instrumentalization” of the genocide convention, and defended Israel’s military actions as an exercise of its right to self-defense." at https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/iran-war-israel-trump-oil-gas-strikes-energy-lebanon
It carries a short video in German of a Press confereece at the German Foreign Office. The fuller interview has a bit more related clip but not much more (-> duck://player/PCKsqVYNIdM ) However it does not seem quite so clear cut to me. The pretext being given is that a suit against Germany by Nicaragua at the ICJ is taking precedence. Nonetheless it is a huge step. Whatever the establishment says - whether SPD or CDU (Merz) - the anti-Gaza war movement and, the still somewhat immature anti-Iran war movements - have had some positive effects. But the overall attacks of the German ruling class on expressions of support for the victims of Israel remains undiminished. Maybe they may be some tempering with time to come.
