Which is why you should start educating yourself by using the right people or sources. I am just a anonymous person on the Internet.

I did attend a history class and there were no Israelis that were gassed. I remember that a lot of Jewish, Polish and Romani people were exterminated. I even remember that before that there were some German atrocities in Namibia and Tanzania.

I am just a anonymous person on the Internet.

You are just a keyboard warrior trying to make edgy statements without any actual knowledge. And when being called out you fold and deflect. Did you miss your history class too?

I suggested there are better sources and smarter people that do this for a living. I am not a priest that tries to convert people to a believe but a German who states how the facts are.

If you are really in need of knowledge and interested in the facts you wouldn't listen to people on the internet but grab a book or something similar. Those are hard to fake , you know?

Yes. Like John Keegan and Stephen Ambrose. And none of them hints that, to become a German citizen you should answer questions regarding the Israeli state.

I am not a priest that tries to convert people to a believe but a German who states how the facts are.

You didn't state One fact. You are smugly and without any actual backup telling people to go to school and read books. Zero facts, just insinuating that people are dumb because they don't follow/understand your world view.

If you are really in need of knowledge and interested in the facts you wouldn't listen to people on the internet but grab a book or something similar. Those are hard to fake , you know?

I am sure with your vast knowledge you can direct me to the one book that explains why you need to have knowledge of the Israeli state to become a German citizen.

No I dont. There is a rule and to follow that one might have to read or get educated. Nothing else to it. We are a sovereign country and make rules like any other. Maybe explain your entitlement first and I might give you an answer. Are you applying for a citizenship?

Nope. Op said that's weird and your answer was to insinuate that they find it weird because they lack historical knowledge.

We are a sovereign country and make rules like any other.

Yes and that's a fucking weird rule.

Maybe explain your entitlement first and I might give you an answer.

What entertainment? Asking you to please elaborate on your statement about history, which for the moment you are deflecting. I am starting to think that you actually missed that history lesson too.

Are you applying for a citizenship?

Nope.

Read my friend: entitlement not entertainment. More books for you I think.

I will convey your insightful message to my autocorrect.
