    Unfortunately international media is not capturing the gravity of the German government winding around and refusing to say they abide by the ICC decision.

    Here is todays gov. press conference in German. Maybe Youtube provides auto-translation. I think the faces and the way they talk can be understood even without knowing German.

      Thanks for linking to the video. There is an auto translate option for it buried deep in the CC settings (at least there was for me).

      My impression that I was left with is that the guy speaking is basically panicking because he doesn’t want to look bad.

      My reaction is “Good. Let the bastards squirm!”

      The German government has gone out of their way to silence any opposition to genocide. Fear of looking like a Nazi is the closest they will come to self awareness.
