MODERATORS
 

Applicants for German citizenship will be required to explicitly affirm Israel's right to exist under a new citizenship law which came into effect on Tuesday.

The new law shortened the number of years that a person must have lived in Germany in order to obtain a passport, from eight to five years. It will also allow first-generation migrants to be dual citizens.

As part of the shake-up, new questions were added to the country's citizenship test, including about Judaism and Israel's right to exist.

It sends the message that Germany supports the genocide in Palestine

Are you illiterate or simply stupid? How does that logic follow exactly?

Acknoledge that a country exists -> Approve actions that a country does.

Israel exists because of genocide and ethnic cleansing
