Government employees in Germany demand an immediate halt to the supply of weapons to Israel. Civil servants emailed the statement to ministries last week, with a disclaimer: “Given the sensitive content and the state’s excessive repression of criticism in this area, we want to remain anonymous” One senior manager described the “climate of fear” within the civil service as “nothing he had ever experienced in 15 years” of his service.
Germany is the second largest military supporter of Israel, providing 30% of the Israeli army's weapons.
