The German government called it an unfortunate use of weapons (originally "Schusswaffen" translating to shooting weapons)

The German government is an absolute joke in this context.

I often listen to their press conferences, and it's pathetic how they just can't get themselves to actually criticize anything.

Their goto response is "Israel has a right to self defense".

since it's literally their fault Israel even exists, one can understand how they might not feel they have the right to comment... I mean it's a hangup from like 80 years ago and everyone involved in the decision is dead but ok

The German government is following their grandfathers path on genocide.
