The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I don't understand this at all.

The coach of a group of athletes complains to the German Chancellor, that some members of his team are nervous about wearing their team jackets, which feature a Star of David, in Germany. So the Chancellor says Muslims that do not accept Germany's acceptance of responsibility for the holocaust must leave the country. I don't understand how someone complaining about being afraid of wearing a Star of David translates to immigrants not accepting Germany's responsibility for events of 80 years ago. According to the net sifter, most antisemitic incidents in Germany are perpetrated by right wing Germans.

Merz: Muslim immigrants who reject Germany’s blame for Holocaust must leave our country

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz on Friday said that Muslim immigrants who refuse to acknowledge Germany’s historical responsibility for the Holocaust “must leave our country.”

“This historical responsibility of our country applies just as much to those who come here to Germany from Islamic countries,” Merz said at a Berlin reception for Jewish athletes who represented the country at this year’s Maccabiah Games, according to the dpa, German press agency.

“And anyone who fails to abide by this must leave our country,” he said.

According to reports, Merz’s remarks came after a Maccabiah basketball coach told the chancellor that Jewish athletes on his team expressed fear about wearing their team jackets, which bear a Star of David, in public.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog tapped Gadi Eisenkot, to assemble a new government. "Bibi" isn't having it. Unlike the German situation, I can understand "Bibi" saying Muslims cannot participate in the government, if their participation in an Eisenkot coalition puts "Bibi" out of power.

Netanyahu demands ‘national unity’ government as he claims Arab parties ‘want to eliminate Israel’

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu calls on the parties of the so-called change bloc to form a national unity government with the parties of his outgoing coalition, and issues dire warnings that a government formed with the Arab parties, whom he labels “terror supporters,” would destroy the country.
