Ist es zu viel verlangt, wenn ich von deutschen Medien und Politik erwarte, dass sie differenzieren zwischen Angriffen von Israel auf Urananreicherungsanlagen und Raketenabschussrampen, die Israel existentiell bedrohen, einerseits und Angriffen des Iran auf israelische Wohngebiete andererseits? Es darf dort keine Äquidistanz geben.

“Self-defence means not only attacking terrorists but destroying them. When Hamas terrorists hide behind people, behind schools … civilian places lose their protected status because terrorists abuse it,” said Germany's then foreign minister during a parliamentary session marking the anniversary of the 7 October 2023 Hamas-led attack on southern Israel.
