Också en form av Israelhat

Två tyska tidningar (Hamburger Morgenpost och Berliner Kurier) har publicerat en artikel där Israels premiärminister Netanyahu beskrivs som en galen diktator i samma klass som bland andra Irans ledare Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Syriens ledare Bashar Assad och  Nord Koreas Kim Jong-un.
Premiärminister Netanyahu är en av väldigt få demokratiskt valda ledare i Mellanöstern och att sätta honom i samma grupp som mer och mindre galna diktatorer visar på ett stort judehat eller inga som helst kunskaper om situationen i världen idag.

GERMAN NEWSPAPERS: NETANYAHU IS A MAD DICTATOR LIKE KHAMENEI (The Jerusalem Post)

Two German tabloids in Hamburg and Berlin wrote on Friday that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is one of the world’s seven most insane dictators, prompting the Israeli Embassy to slam the report as antisemitic.

In unsigned articles titled “The seven looniest leaders of the world,” the papers included Netanyahu on a list with Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Syria’s Bashar Assad, North Korea’s Kim Jong-un, Russia’s Vladimir Putin, the Philippines’ Rodrigo Duterte, and Zimbabwe’s Robert Mugabe.

The headline used the word "Führer" to label Netanyahu; a term routinely reserved for Adolf Hitler.

The Israeli Embassy in Berlin told The Jerusalem Post: “The fact that the elected prime minister of a Western democracy – that has been struggling for its life ever since it was founded – is placed in the same category as some of the worst dictatorships in the world, bears witness more than anything to the newspaper’s level of understanding about what is happening in the world today or about something much worse, that should have disappeared from the world long ago: antisemitism.”
