Basically yes. Die Linke offers some lip service to the idea of stopping all weapons exports, but they undermine their own position on this by repeating Zionist lies about the Resistance. When you continue to insist that “Israel” has a right to exist and defend itself from the vicious “terrorists” who just out of nowhere and for no other reason than being bloodthirsty savages decided to attack and kill innocent civilians on Oct 7, then you only help the other parties justify continuing to arm the Zionists to commit genocide.
They engage in the same hypocrisy on the subject of the Ukraine conflict by the way: simultaneously claiming to want peace negotiations and an end to weapons deliveries, yet repeating many of the same NATO talking points about Russia and the Ukraine conflict that all the mainstream parties spout.
And because they are too small of a party to have any influence on the actual policies of the government, they can safely pose as being pro-peace because they are never in a position to follow through on that rhetoric with concrete action. Whereas them strengthening the propaganda talking points is something that actually matters because it helps the government to continue the current course. As a small opposition party the most effective thing they could do would be to call out the mainstream on its lies like the BSW does on Nordstream, Ukraine, sanctions, etc. …But they haven’t and they won’t.
