Germany’s Central Council of Jews has sharply criticized the government’s decision to suspend exports of military equipment to Israel that could be used in the Gaza Strip, announced by Chancellor Friedrich Merz on Friday.
Israel is attacked daily by enemies and bombarded with missiles, Schuster said.
“Depriving Israel of the ability to defend itself against such threats endangers its existence,” he added.
Using weapons inside Gaza is not defense though.
And the export ban is specifically in weapons that can be used offensively. Anti-Air weaponry is not part of that
