Germany will intervene on Israel’s behalf as a third party in the International Court of Justice’s genocide hearing against Israel, according to Steffen Hebestreit, the spokesman for Germany’s federal government.

In a Friday press release, Hebestreit stated that while Germany supports the International Court of Justice in its work, it also supports Israel’s right to self-defense and rejects the ICJ’s accusation of genocide.

“The federal government firmly rejects the accusation of genocide made against Israel. It has no basis whatsoever,” Hebestreit reiterated in a post on X.

[Well, I don’t support the ICJ in its work, and this show trial on behalf of failed leftist thugs and terror sympathizers is a very good demonstration of why. The UN and the ICJ are thoroughly ridden with anti-Semitism and exist largely to protect the worst regimes in the world. We shouldn’t give either forum any legitimacy at all. — Ed]
