In germanys underfunded and class-segregated education system historic revisionism and pop-lib history is widespread. Its countryside is controlled by American-founded CDU country lords. German society is also still conservative and regressive. The lower class of german society is very effectively sidelined, I know it from my father, who doesn't speak up or criticizes his bosses because of a sense of "Oh they are more qualified than me". Its a very weird hierarchal structure.
To alleviate some people's fears here, the hardcore pro-zionism is widespread amongst the higher chambers of german society, especially the "highly educated" section. I come from working-class surroundings and most of the people there are not that extreme, they also are sympathetic to the Palestinian cause.
