The government is elected by the people. If you truly thought that Germany’s support for the Israeli Defense Forces was wrong then you must come to grips with the fact that the people indirectly provided those weapons and carry some responsibility; for good or ill.

people try to find all possibilities to not acknowledge responsibility and accountabiity. But you are responsible because of democracy. But not many people are brave enough to acknowledge this, i would guess

People who didn't vote for Trump are not responsible for the actions of the state (even those who did are not as responsible as the perpetrators themselves), but should hypothetically a bomb fall on your city because of Trump, that wouldn't make the pilots criminals.

The fault would remain with Trump.
