German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and his CDU are facing accusations of helping a right-wing extremist party gain political offices, with critics citing developments in Saxony-Anhalt. Commenters accuse the CDU leadership of double standards and argue Merz should resign rather than criticize others, tying the debate to broader arguments over Israel, antisemitism and Jewish life in Germany.
