| I have read responses here and find many of them disconnected from the reality and full of wishful thinking. The Nazi Germany has committed crimes against us and others. The Germany of today admits to that and has repented in the ways that are available to the state to do that: through the truthful interpretation of the history and the financial compensation. That some Germans are anti-Semitic is irrelevant, since the German state does not stand for it. That is it. What else can be demanded? Absolutely Merkel can and should speak in German in Knesset. That is normal. To demand additional consideration as responses here suggest is not. The World does not care much about any special needs of anybody including Jewish ones. The only right thing is :to learn the lessons (one of them not to be weak as our parents and grandparents were in WWII) and move on. So enough. She should speak in German. |
