So your position is essentially that having to have Jews in your country, or even having to live alongside a Jewish state, is somehow a punishment? Thanks for being so open about your antisemitism. It makes it easier for decent people to avoid you.
The reality is that Germany still thinks of itself as "the Master Race", funding and arming its 3rd genocide since 1904 not out of guilt but rather White Supremacy,, using Israel as the excuse to keep non-whites out by forcing them to sign a document declaring they believe Israel has the right to exist. Imagine being a Palestinian born into Israel's apartheid, bantustans, military occupation, killed for breathing, arbitrary arrests, torture, bi-annual mowing of the lawn,...finally escaping, only to be forced into signing a paper claiming you believe Israel should exist! Let's not forget that Israel has existed only since 1948, when the ancestral home of Palestinians was stolen from under their feet by the power of the Zionist Rothschilds!
Exactly. That is the reason. The Zionists control the politicians and the economy and threaten to sink the economy if they do not enact what the Zionists demand of them. It is not Germany controlling Israel. Quiet the other way around. This lady seems to continue to play the victim card at a certain level still. The truth is more horrific than discussed here.
Yeah, but Germany doesn’t have a similar Jewish electorate. The community is tiny compared to the US. I think this has more to do with the so called transatlantic agenda, which basically follows everything Washington does. The same goes for the Ukraine conflict. The German electorate opposes both wars, and wants to see diplomatic solutions.

Germany committed the 1st genocide of the 20th century, between 1904-1908, in what is now Namibia, then German South West Africa, in a campaign of ethnic cleansing and collective punishment, Germany slaughtered at least 100,000 people.

The Berlin Conference took place from November 15, 1884 to February 26, 1885, in which Africa was divided among the European powers. Without one African present and without consulting the African people. Thus without their consent. This is called colonization. The same goes for other people to decide over the territory of Palestine without the consent of the people, as in 1917 by the British Crown, is called colonization. The International Community (UN) does not have the right to constitute a new state (Israel) on other peoples land (Palestine).

And if someone they don't like gets elected, the CIA is also there as a backup. Look at the assassination attempt on Trump, just like Kennedy. Kennedy wanted to end the Vietnam War, but the arms and banking lobbyists didn't. So the CIA did what it was ordered to do: ensure that someone they don't like can't be elected. The parties are under their strong influence, and candidates have to go through a complex filtering system. In the end, the corrupt lobbyists in Congress still vote for who THEY want, not who the people want. And if somehow someone they don't like still gets elected (which has happened 4-5 times so far), the CIA and Pentagon will be there as the last solution. Direct democracy is a must-have in the USA.

The dead children don’t affect me like they used to. The images. The videos. They still disturb and horrify, but not like they did in the beginning. Not anywhere close. And, honestly, I hate it. I hate that that part of me has been stolen. As much as I hated having my heart kicked around all day and having nightmares all night, I’d rather have that than this decreased sensitivity. People should not become desensitized to such horrors. People should not become accustomed to decapitated babies and small, mangled bodies. To corpses run over by tanks. To body parts carried in plastic bags by loved ones. These things should jar you. They should rattle you to your core. But they don’t anymore. Not here. I held onto it for as long as I could. It felt like a solemn duty, to hold on to that part of me that still screamed with an appropriate mixture of grief and outrage at the latest tiny shredded body. But desensitization sets in whether you want it to or not. That’s how they create soldiers, after all. I hate that these pricks have amputated that part of me, and I hate that I know it will never grow back. I have been permanently disfigured inside, mutated by atrocities, all the way down here safe in the Melbourne suburbs. And I hate that this is happening all around the world to everyone else who’s kept their gaze fixed on Gaza. All around the world humanity is being mutated. All around the world something sacred is being stolen from the hearts of good people. All around the world people are finding callouses where there used to be tenderness. And I want my tenderness back, god damn it. I want my tenderness back. Give me back the nightmares. Give me back the tears. Give me back the dry retching over the toilet, and the shaking under the blankets. Give me back the collapsing onto the couch and not moving for several hours until my system can recover from what my eyes just saw. I’ll take it. I’ll take it all back again. Just give me back that soft, tender part of myself that has been withered to dust by a live-streamed genocide. I will take good care of it. I will feed it good things. I’ll give it plenty of sunshine, cupping it delicately in my hands by the window. I will take it for walks, and let it rejoice at the children running and playing, with their parts all together and their insides on the inside. Don’t leave me hardened and darkened like a soldier. Give me back that soft, sacred part of myself that weeps at the corpses of children, so I can behold the world gently again.
Wow, what you wrote really touched upon how I have been feeling. At the beginning, I was screaming and raging and crying, and now, I can barely stand to keep up with what’s happening.

We will see what policies Kamala Harris will be forwarding.

In my opinion it's about fear, not guilt... they know what would happen to them if they stand against the power of the clan, they experienced it 80 years ago and don't want to be destroyed again... in comparison, as a personal example, I won't feel any guilt if my grandfather had done something leaded to his destruction, but I can take it as a lesson of what not to do.

Thank you Iris, for speaking out. Most Germans I know think like you but are scared to be blamed for antisemitism and in the worse case lose their jobs. I think it’s absolutely nonsense to not be able to criticise the Israeli government or not accept the borders of the Israeli State (since so many settlements were illegally built on Palestinian territory). Many jewish people distance themselves from their policies and especially the genocide and occupation („not in my name“) and it’s the most absurd thing to call them antisemite. The German politicians are completely nuts, evil, stupid and/or ignorant and I would tell them: read, read and read!! To begin with the book of books about this theme: Ilan Pappé’s The ethnic cleansing of Palestine. Don’t be on the wrong side of history again!
Thank you, Katie for inviting Iris again. Thank you, Iris for talking so friendly about a land and a people, who don´t deserve that. Germans aren´t Nazis, they are simply cowards.

Nobody forces you to become a citizen of germany. If you think it's appalling that it is mandatory to accept the right of Israel to exist in order to become a German citizen you can always leave. There are so many states in Europe where the safety of Israel is not a state doctrine. You have many options to choose from. The right of Israel to exist is baked into the DNA of the German nation. If you can't accept that, if you want Israel gone, living here might not be for you
"We" committed a tremendous crime against the Jewish people ("we" as implicating Germans). Is anyone still alive who made such decisions? Is there generational guilt (from the fathers and grandfathers) ?
Yes, but it was German culture and German ethics that allowed this unspeakable crimes against humanity to happen. The Germans put children in dark chambers and poured in Zyklon B as they screamed and scratched the walls in agony to die a most horrific death. Germans exterminated 2/3rd of the Jewish populations.
Germany has lost its own self determination since the blowing up of the pipelines of Nordstream 1 and Nordstream 2! A collapse of their industry, economy and self pride!

"Merkel welcomed refugees" - This is a good example of what happens if you try to find a balance between human decency and interests. This was one of the moments where I was proud of German policies. But even that little (1 of 80 million is not really that much) amount of decency was too much, for the world as well as for Germany's political landscape. Was it worth it to be the good guys for the price of having to stare into the ugly face of AfD? I still believe that Merkel did the right thing then. But I don't know if it was worth it doing the right thing.

Some truth to that. The Holocaust is German identity according to much of the west ( including Germany's own government)- and they never let the German people forget it. The west including Germany has been programmed to think of Germany and Germans as bad. All their other achievements have been buried. The Holocaust has come to define Germany and Germany's government has allowed it.

Iris Hefets describes an extreme form of _ius sanguinis_ ('law of the blood') that is not exactly how it works in Germany. For the descendants of people persecuted by the Nazis it often amounts to the same thing, but sometimes even for them it doesn't, leading to surprise and disappointment. If we assume that everyone has two parents who are married to each other and who are each a citizen of exactly one country, then the ways to get German citizenship changed over the decades roughly as follows: 1. Initially: patriarchal ius sanguinis. You are born a German if your father is a German. (However, male Germans could lose citizenship by not following a call to go to Germany for military duty in times of war.) 2. Since the 1950s or so: ius sanguinis. Same as before, but the same rules also apply for becoming a German through your mother. (Also the restriction concerning military duty became unconstitutional.) 3. Relatively new current rules: weakened ius sanguinis, and new ius solis ('law of the soil') aspects. Inheriting German citizenship via a German born abroad in 2000 or later normally requires registration in Germany within 1 year. On the other hand, everyone born in Germany to at least one parent who lived legally in Germany during the 8 years before the birth gets provisional German citizenship in addition to whichever other citizenships they may inherit from their parents. Between their 21st and 23rd birthday they must choose between discarding all other citizenships and giving up German citizenship. In addition to these general rules, there is an article in the German constitution which says that not only do those who were unfairly persecuted by the Nazis get their German citizenship back (which is of course no longer directly relevant), but also their descendants are treated as if their ancestor had never lost it and everyone had done whatever was required to pass it on to all descendants. Unfortunately this led to many rejections due to _patriarchal_ ius sanguinis (item 1 above). As a matter of goodwill and with no legal title, this restriction was routinely ignored for several years during the wave of such naturalizations that was triggered by Brexit.
Dresden was also gratuitous genocide with no strategic point. Germans have been conditioned not to question the genocide of the women and children of Dresden or they will be called neonazis, so Netanyahu was quick to cite Dresden as his precedent for bombing Gaza.

And if someone they don't like gets elected, the CIA is also there as a backup. Look at the assassination attempt on Trump, just like Kennedy. Kennedy wanted to end the Vietnam War, but the arms and banking lobbyists didn't. So the CIA did what it was ordered to do: ensure that someone they don't like can't be elected. The parties are under their strong influence, and candidates have to go through a complex filtering system. In the end, the corrupt lobbyists in Congress still vote for who THEY want, not who the people want. And if somehow someone they don't like still gets elected (which has happened 4-5 times so far), the CIA and Pentagon will be there as the last solution. Direct democracy is a must-have in the USA.

They are our big brother,with Military Basis like rammstein with nuclear wespons. So shameful to watch this.
The US are not your big brothers. They are your colonial masters. They are not your friends. They will willingly sacrifice you if it benefits them. Hint, Hint, blowing up the Nordstream pipelines to force you to buy their expensive gas and then convincing your German manufacturers to lay off your people, close their factories, leave Germany and move their manufacturing to the United States.
Never forget that. A country that carpet bombed your cities day after day for 3 years with the purpose of killing as many of your civilians as possible don't just change into a country that cares about you and wants you to succeed. Their greatest fear is that you and Russia will have great relations and that Russian endless natural resources and cheap energy combined with German technology, know how and manufacturing would rival their own economic and industrial might and surpass them. That is why they spy on your leaders, and hold them on a tight leach.
What is bothering them is that by driving Russia away from you they have driven it on to China's arms who happen to have an even greater industrial capacity and technological and scientific know how. That is what is driving them insane.
So now they want you to sacrifice your economy and cut all trade and commerce with China just like you have cut all trade and access to cheap Russian gas thinking it would hurt Russia.

And, honestly, I hate it. I hate that that part of me has been stolen.
As much as I hated having my heart kicked around all day and having nightmares all night, I’d rather have that than this decreased sensitivity.
People should not become desensitized to such horrors. People should not become accustomed to decapitated babies and small, mangled bodies. To corpses run over by tanks. To body parts carried in plastic bags by loved ones.
These things should jar you. They should rattle you to your core. But they don’t anymore. Not here.
I held onto it for as long as I could. It felt like a solemn duty, to hold on to that part of me that still screamed with an appropriate mixture of grief and outrage at the latest tiny shredded body. But desensitization sets in whether you want it to or not. That’s how they create soldiers, after all.
I hate that these pricks have amputated that part of me, and I hate that I know it will never grow back. I have been permanently disfigured inside, mutated by atrocities, all the way down here safe in the Melbourne suburbs.
And I hate that this is happening all around the world to everyone else who’s kept their gaze fixed on Gaza. All around the world humanity is being mutated. All around the world something sacred is being stolen from the hearts of good people. All around the world people are finding callouses where there used to be tenderness.
And I want my tenderness back, god damn it. I want my tenderness back.
Give me back the nightmares. Give me back the tears. Give me back the dry retching over the toilet, and the shaking under the blankets. Give me back the collapsing onto the couch and not moving for several hours until my system can recover from what my eyes just saw.
I’ll take it. I’ll take it all back again. Just give me back that soft, tender part of myself that has been withered to dust by a live-streamed genocide.
I will take good care of it. I will feed it good things. I’ll give it plenty of sunshine, cupping it delicately in my hands by the window. I will take it for walks, and let it rejoice at the children running and playing, with their parts all together and their insides on the inside.
Don’t leave me hardened and darkened like a soldier. Give me back that soft, sacred part of myself that weeps at the corpses of children, so I can behold the world gently again.
Wow, what you wrote really touched upon how I have been feeling. At the beginning, I was screaming and raging and crying, and now, I can barely stand to keep up with what’s happening. I blame Biden’s lack of leadership and ethics, his full on support for the genocide. Next week, Netanyahu comes to speak in front of the US Congress. Maybe that part of myself will be awakened. We will see what policies Kamala Harris will be forwarding.
That made me feel my heart beating again

Look how Russia embraces its past as it has been, to move on with its present, to have a future.
So, when Germany said "never again" about resisting genocide in the future, what they actually meant was "never, AGAIN"?
We will look back on this time & think the world was upside-down.
Hopefully. Or we will not be there to look back.

Nobody forces you to become a citizen of germany. If you think it's appalling that it is mandatory to accept the right of Israel to exist in order to become a German citizen you can always leave. There are so many states in Europe where the safety of Israel is not a state doctrine. You have many options to choose from. The right of Israel to exist is baked into the DNA of the German nation. If you can't accept that, if you want Israel gone, living here might not be for you
Racism is a great part of the puzzle, in Germany, USA, Canada, and many predominantly white Scandinavia. The could not care less.
My god...
"We" committed a tremendous crime against the Jewish people ("we" as implicating Germans). Is anyone still alive who made such decisions? Is there generational guilt (from the fathers and grandfathers) ?
The Shoah has become an heirloom, to be passed down the generations, giving today's Jews in Israel a blank cheque to do whatever they like.
They are committing one right now. Where have you been? Germans will never change.
@@marks6663 Exemplify those remarks please.
Yes, but it was German culture and German ethics that allowed this unspeakable crimes against humanity to happen. The Germans put children in dark chambers and poured in Zyklon B as they screamed and scratched the walls in agony to die a most horrific death. Germans exterminated 2/3rd of the Jewish populations.
This trans-generational BS is too much. Exactly the reason why Israel benefits so much from crimes perpetrated on the previous generation.
Germany has lost its own self determination since the blowing up of the pipelines of Nordstream 1 and Nordstream 2!
A collapse of their industry, economy and self pride!
Why does not Germany give all German Jews in Israel right of return back to Germany?
This right exists since 70+ years. Very few Israelis have used it so far, but there is a growing community of immigrants from Israel in Berlin .
Same reason why people with German citizenship (or their spouses/children/descendants) from the former German territories in the East have that right.

@emekajohn-bz7rfwrong, we care about people with the most money, the zionists
Thanks for this excellent interview! Germany resembles the U.S. in that the actions of the politicians don't reflect the thinking of the general population, according to the
polls. This is true of Britain also and may be true the rest of Europe as well.
I think the real issue is that we're now living under an empire. Not a German empire, not an American empire, but an Israeli empire. Whatever the Israel dictates, states like USA (or Germany) just have to obey, and obey blindly.
At least that's what could be logically inferred from the unfolding of the international situation.
Imagine if they made their country in East Germany instead of Mandate Palestine?
I wonder how that would have evolved?
Germany, like many times in the past, is in the wrong side of history.
Most idiotic comment i've to read. Try to think. With your brain.
History repeating because we didn’t learn our lesson the first time
I have been wondering about how the German public feels about the Palestinians paying for their crimes... Sadly this was not answered... Non the less some interesting titbits in this interview
Germany have applied reverse logic to this genocide. So dumb.
She said 1000 migrants when actually it was 1 M - 3 M. Can’t imagine why she said that as she did. She had several wrong facts actually
A big "Not in my name" from Germany 😱😭💔🙏
first people who will commit atrocities are the ones who follow the rules blindly, unfortunately I see that Germans didn´t learn anything at all
It's the corrupt government. WHen will you people learn that.
NOT "the germans"
What an outstanding heart warming interview. The truth shall set us free. Thank you, Katie for continuing to bring such outstanding material, and Iris for your wonderful insight. May Love and Light continue to strengthen you both.

"Merkel welcomed refugees" - This is a good example of what happens if you try to find a balance between human decency and interests.
This was one of the moments where I was proud of German policies. But even that little (1 of 80 million is not really that much) amount of decency was too much, for the world as well as for Germany's political landscape.
Was it worth it to be the good guys for the price of having to stare into the ugly face of AfD? I still believe that Merkel did the right thing then. But I don't know if it was worth it doing the right thing.
You should also not underestimate the latent anti-Muslim prejudices in Germany which are also pet of the motivation to do this.
Yes, these prejudices are not helped by the continuous beheadings, rapes, shootings, bombings and kniving attacks committed by the Peace Religion.
@@victormeidan1062 drop your racist BS somewhere else.
@@victormeidan1062so according to you all Germans are Nazi? Are we going to judge a whole group of people based on what afew of them do?
No, they are not. The same people who support israel are also pro "diversity" and pro immigration. The same in the US, the people that cried about trumps "muslim ban" are pro israel. The far left is somewhat pro muslim, pro immigrant but anti israel. The far right is anti immigrant, anti muslim and somewhat anti israel.
@@victormeidan1062
don't wake him up. In his fantasy version of reality, notions about other groups are always just "prejudices" and discrimination and not based on actual bad experience and crime statistics.
Yes, this is how it is in Germany.
@artinvartanian4631 Why? What is the plan? Peas full world domination?
You never listened to ANY official statement of the foreign ministry.😅
There's a question that majority of people want to know the answer... how come the character or the behavior of zioz is exactly the same with nazis in ww2???!!!! Is there a root or bloodline involves in it??!!!
Because one convinced us he was the victim.
Yes, it is...
We all know that this is not a question.
why is germany so screwed up? it is in the process of falling apart.
It is a specific character. The cowardice, combined with arrogance - looking down on others, the "lesser ones" - our "values" (as if others did not have any values) The underlying issue is a inferiority complex. Truly confident people do not act like this.
💯 nailed it!
If Germany support Israel it should give them the country, but don’t support them of all costs of Palestinian
@@poweroflove7320 how about we give israel the german politicians who support israel? I'm fed up with people deciding for me with whom I have to share my space. My family came to Germany many years ago. We are all fluent and integrated. We came here because we loved the country, the people and we wanted to become more like them. If we wanted to become turkish, syrian or ukranian we would have moved our asses there.
Everyone talks about diversity while diversity goes down the drain. Just 20 years ago I could sit in my car and drive through multiple countries to enjoy their culture and customs.
Now it's all europe. It's all the same. No matter where you go, London, Berlin, Paris, Madrid, doesn't matter.. it's all EU now. To find actual europeans you have to go in the small towns far away from big cities. What kind of diversity is that? It becomes the same food, the same mixed people, the same cultures everywhere. I have a huge india market here, how the fuck someone from england will write: yeah we have that too. Like how isn't it an Indian! Germany doesn't exist anymore. The country my family migrated to is gone. Now it's Euro-Many. All countries in the EU are just Euro-Many. The Ukrainian are bonkers sacrificing their lives for this scam. They'll survive longer under putin as a people than in the EU.
Once again Germany is on the wrong side of History
Nope. By siding with Israel, Germany is proving that she is now a decent and civilized country standing up for democracy and theocratic terrorists.
Who's history written by who .
When they make it illegal to question the Holocaust anyone with a brain should ask what are they afraid of.
Oh look. The 6th time some wannabe expert had to write that down. Sweet lil clueless kids
This lady is a treasure, it gives me much hope ❤
Why doesn't Germany give some land for the Israeli state instead of making Palestinians pay for their crimes? Maybe the US could give land for an Israeli state and they should absolutely give good land to the indigenous people!
The zionists wanted Palestine, nowhere else.
Maybe stop calling Germans Nazis every time they do something you don't like and they won't feel immense pressure to allow Israel to do whatever
The first comment that makes sense.
Very underrated comment. No one seems to understand that this is the most important thing. All starts there. I think they all know what they are doing. Both sides playing dumb to have the possibility to always play the victim card from all sides if needed. (moderate jews and zionists)
A never ending free card to always blame the others.
Some truth to that. The Holocaust is German identity according to much of the west ( including Germany's own government)- and they never let the German people forget it. The west including Germany has been programmed to think of Germany and Germans as bad. All their other achievements have been buried. The Holocaust has come to define Germany and Germany's government has allowed it.
Germany hasn't changed. They just hide behind their so called "guilt" while pulling the same old shit.
The USA broke their economy OVERNIGHT ...by cutting their energy supply !! The Chancellor was very reluctant and CLEARLY BLACKMAILED ...
That doesn't make any sense...
If only they felt as protective of native Namibians too.
germany has become everything they used to hate, shame on them, shame.
On what planet does democracy equal apartheid and genocide

No, God hates these nasty war criminals. That is why he is punishing the war criminals.
Iris Hefets describes an extreme form of _ius sanguinis_ ('law of the blood') that is not exactly how it works in Germany. For the descendants of people persecuted by the Nazis it often amounts to the same thing, but sometimes even for them it doesn't, leading to surprise and disappointment. If we assume that everyone has two parents who are married to each other and who are each a citizen of exactly one country, then the ways to get German citizenship changed over the decades roughly as follows:
1. Initially: patriarchal ius sanguinis. You are born a German if your father is a German. (However, male Germans could lose citizenship by not following a call to go to Germany for military duty in times of war.)
2. Since the 1950s or so: ius sanguinis. Same as before, but the same rules also apply for becoming a German through your mother. (Also the restriction concerning military duty became unconstitutional.)
3. Relatively new current rules: weakened ius sanguinis, and new ius solis ('law of the soil') aspects. Inheriting German citizenship via a German born abroad in 2000 or later normally requires registration in Germany within 1 year. On the other hand, everyone born in Germany to at least one parent who lived legally in Germany during the 8 years before the birth gets provisional German citizenship in addition to whichever other citizenships they may inherit from their parents. Between their 21st and 23rd birthday they must choose between discarding all other citizenships and giving up German citizenship.
In addition to these general rules, there is an article in the German constitution which says that not only do those who were unfairly persecuted by the Nazis get their German citizenship back (which is of course no longer directly relevant), but also their descendants are treated as if their ancestor had never lost it and everyone had done whatever was required to pass it on to all descendants. Unfortunately this led to many rejections due to _patriarchal_ ius sanguinis (item 1 above). As a matter of goodwill and with no legal title, this restriction was routinely ignored for several years during the wave of such naturalizations that was triggered by Brexit.
Thanks to Katie and Iris.
Great insights. Germany has not changed.
A cursed people
No insights. Inform yourself
Dresden was also gratuitous genocide with no strategic point. Germans have been conditioned not to question the genocide of the women and children of Dresden or they will be called neonazis, so Netanyahu was quick to cite Dresden as his precedent for bombing Gaza.
