Germany is in the worst situation in this case because of their past. You know what Germans have been doing to Jewish people and Germany has been trying very hard to prove that they changed for better after both World Wars, so if they don't support Israel, then they can experience lots of negativity. I would say that Germany is forced to support them.
It is more like Germany is participating in yet another genocide.
The reason why it hasn't happened yet is not the election, it is the fact that if US gets directly involved it would turn all US assets into legitimate targets for Iran and Iran could wipe them all out in a blinking of an eye. That's an escalation level that neither Iran nor Washington want.
What do you exactly mean?
It is complicated and I covered it a little bit here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5511403.msg64591916#msg64591916But long story short the Israeli terrorists don't have the capability to deliver a
meaningful strike on Iran. They will need full support of NATO specifically US military. They will need US aircrafts, US bombs, US satellites, US cyber warfare unit (to overwhelm Iranian radars), US tanker aircrafts (to be able to travel long distance), possibly US Navy, etc. So basically it would be like US striking Iran which is declaration of war and according to international law (I believe article 51 of UN charter covers this) all US assets become legitimate targets to be attacked and destroyed as Iran sees fit.
