Most Germans feel no responsibility for Israel
A new survey reveals that most Germans feel their country has no special responsibility for Israel, despite Germany's official foreign policy of support for Israel.
Germans have a ``special responsibility'' toward Israel, visiting German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said in Jerusalem Monday, as he toured the Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial to the six million Jews murdered by the Nazis during World War II. Westerwelle, who had only just arrived in Israel, laid a wreath at the memorial, and was also set Monday night to hold talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman.
