Germany: 'A Threat To Israel is the Same as a Threat to Germany'

Only a person who understands history will appreciate these words coming from the mouth of a German Chancellor. Really, I'm still trying to absorb this. Even though they are still, just words, it is non-the-less a remarkable and moving gesture 63 years after the Holocaust.

Of course, Germany is the largest trading partner with Iran. Merkel would be in a position to illustrate the sincerity of her words by imposing German trade sanctions on Iran until they halt their nuclear program. That would actually put some real substance behind her highly symbolic and historic words.
