When Netanjahu pushed for his justice reform there were a lot of articles pointing that out. Very regularly people spoke up against the settlers-movement.
Israel for sure is not a white knight in this conflict but given that it's a war that Hamas clearly started in the worst possible way and that Hamas is misusing their civilians as shields to produce public outcry when those people they hold hostage around their command centers die it's hard to see how while still shitty in the big picture Israel is clearly in the right in this specific war right now.
Let's hope that the Israeli people kick out Netanjahu asap (since they still can other than the people in Gaza that have no chance to kick out Hamas without outside intervention) and that there is a way to find a peaceful 2 state solution - but saying stuff like the statement that was banned won't help with peace either as it's just a wish to flip the war on the other side and genocide all the Jews from Israel.
Fueling hate against a group of people like this is not protected by freedom of speech in Germany in general. If someone repeated that statement of the Israeli minister about flattening Gaza with an atomic bomb in Germany that probably would also be illegal.
This now is just making it clear where the line that's always been there is in this conflict.
and that there is a way to find a peaceful 2 state solution
I doubt it, the Israeli government and the settlers have been working relentlessly to prevent this from happening to a point where this is not possible anymore. The settlements are so interwoven with Palestinian territories that it would be political suicide for any Israeli government who would tell the settlers to leave their homes, universities, roads and all the infrastructure behind for the Palestinians to take over. And this has been the goal from the start.
People are critical of Israel here, too.

Also Hamas has been a asset to the Israeli government since the beginning to prevent a Palestinian state from happening: https://www.timesofisrael.com/for-years-netanyahu-propped-up-hamas-now-its-blown-up-in-our-faces/ I doubt once they get rid of Hamas they will suddenly change direction, they will double down on it.
