Potsdam (dpa/bb) - The commitment to Israel's right to exist is a condition for naturalisation in Brandenburg. In addition to the commitment to the liberal-democratic basic order, “the recognition of the right to existence of the State of Israel has been a condition for naturalisation since the beginning of June this year,” said Interior Minister René Wilke in the . This is done in consultation with Prime Minister Dietmar Woidke (SPD).
The Minister of the Interior made it clear that it is not about the acceptance of all decisions by the Israeli government: “It is a commitment to the right of the State of Israel to exist, which is being made,” said Wilke. “It is not a commitment that everything any head of government in Israel will ever do and will also be solidarity and agreement.”
Do Germans think they're making amends? Is the lesson from the past century so deeply engrained that it clouds critical thinking? I don't mean the politicians with hidden intentions behind their hidden intentions, but in general?
