German Nobel laureate’s Israel-Iran policy poem causes storm
Nobel prize-winning German author Gunther Grass has drawn anger for a poem criticising Israel’s policies against Iran, which it accuses of being a danger to world peace.
The poem, called ‘What Must Be Said’ was published in German paper Suddeutsche Zeitung, and has provoked anger from Germans who believe it is Iran’s policies that pose the risk.
