"On 27 January last year, we were in #Berlin at a large demonstration in #solidarity with #Palestine. During the demonstration, our comrade was suddenly pulled out by the cops, put into a car without warning or communication and driven away. The reason: his Palestine flag had a fist in Palestine colours on it (see picture). That really shouldn’t be anything surprising at a Palestine demonstration. However, the police and the public prosecutor’s office claim that the fist looks “confusingly similar44 to the logo of the #Samidoun youth movement Hirak." #Germany #repression #zionism #zionazis #germancomplicity

Have a look at how German police actually forced its entry into a public event where #FrancescaAlbanese, the #UN Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories, presented her view on the horrendous situation in #Gaza and #WestBank

The whole meeting had to proceed under the eyes of the police observing who was present and listening whether specific expressions could be used to criminalize the Palestinian #solidarity movement once more.

Living in a police state seems to be the fitting term for a situation in which the armed police of the state executive intimidates not only the audience but the international visitor who represents the United Nations that were founded after WW2 to make it impossible that such kinds of authoritarian repression like in Nazi #Germany would ever happen again.

"Immigrants or refugees do not have a higher tendency to commit crime and there is no correlation between the proportion of immigrants in a given district and the local crime rate, according to a new analysis of the latest German crime statistics carried out by the renowned IFO institute.

"These insights aren't actually new," says study's co-author Jean-Victor Alipour. "It just proves what has already been proven, not just for Germany but for many other countries: Namely that there is no systematic connection between immigration and criminality."

So yesterday Nancy Faeser, the German interior minister (previously known for multiple anti-Arab propaganda campaigns), announced a ban on Samidoun.
The ban on #Samidoun by #German officials is active participation in the ongoing genocide on #Gaza. The purpose of such a ban is to repress dissent with the full force of the state. ...
All of this is full-on complicity and particiption in #genocide. ...
If it is possible to ban Samidoun, then it is possible to ban every political organization and group in #Germany that challenges the #politics of the German state and its imperialist role. This action comes hand in hand with the United States' ongoing resupply of bombs to target the #Palestinian people in Gaza. It is meant to bolster the Israeli war effort by depriving the Palestinian people of popular support on the streets.

The images of hundreds of masked and heavily armed police invading the apartments of Palestinian students, #workers and #refugees in Germany today appears as an imitation of the daily invasions of the Israeli occupation forces in Palestinian homes in occupied Palestine, as well as a disturbing echo of Germany’s own Nazi #fascist history. And as #Palestinians in occupied #Palestine have never stopped struggling despite over 75 years of #Zionist occupation and 100 years of colonialism, these attacks will not silence the growing movement in #Germany and every other imperialist power involved in attacking Palestine, as new generations refuse their involvement and complicity in #genocide. https://abolitionmedia.noblogs.org/post/2023/11/24/statement-by-samidoun-palestinian-prisoner-solidarity-network-on-the-23-november-2023-raids-in-germany/

#Germany is becoming a #police state when it comes to #Palestine #activism.
"At 6 a.m. on March 22, pro-#Palestinian activists Said and Yasemin, who were asleep in their respective Berlin homes, were awakened by armed and masked police officers who broke down their doors at the same time."
"This is not the first time Berlin police raided people’s homes over social media posts. Earlier this month, police knocked down the door of a middle-aged woman who wrote “from the river to the sea Palestine will be free” on her social media and arrested her. She was charged with “using the symbols of unconstitutional organizations,” Berlin police said in a statement."
"In #Berlin most recently, the state and the media have tried their best to shut down the Palestine Congress, a gathering of international scholars, activists, and journalists. "
"A Palestinian friend of mine, Mahmoud, is currently being targeted by the state of Karlsruhe for saying the following during a protest: “Palestine is for all people, from the river to the sea, regardless of their denomination or religion.” That was enough for the state to say he had committed a hate crime by questioning Israel’s right to exist. He is being forced to pay 7,500 euros in fines. "
This is extremely DANGEROUS.

#Germany 's federal intelligence agency classified the international Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (#BDS) movement as a suspected extremist organization this week.

This new designation will allow German authorities to monitor BDS activists and recruit informants within the organization.

#Israel has also poured tens of millions of shekels into combating BDS. Germany has now become the latest country to join what is commonly known as "the anti-BDS movement."

(And for the last they left the most racist, anti-muslim, fascist, aspect of the decision)

According to BfV president, Thomas Haldenwang, who contributed to the report, Germany experienced a 67.4% increase in politically and ideologically motivated crimes in the past year, with most offenders linked to Islamist ideologies, a threat that has intensified since October 7.

"Qantara portal, which publishes content in English, German and Arabic, operated successfully for more than 20 years, seemingly with no editorial guidance from the German government. This changed, however, when it began publishing content critical of German debates on anti-Semitism in the context of the #Gaza #genocide. Earlier this year, it was announced that Qantara would be restructured, and its management would be transferred from Deutsche Welle to the Institute for Foreign Cultural Relations (Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen – IFA),  which is affiliated to and funded by the Federal Foreign Office.
...German Foreign Minister Annalena #Baerbock suggesting in an interview that concerns about content published by Qantara, particularly content on anti-Semitism, were a factor in the decision.
...With this one article, published under the editorial control of a Foreign Office-affiliated institute, the #German government burned its “bridge” to the Islamic world."

"The historical parallel here is hard to miss: far-right forces are rising, as a racist hysteria targeting one racialised group of people spreads through the German state and society. History may not repeat itself fully. Mass extermination may be replaced by mass expulsion as the far-right concept of “remigration” is quickly gaining ground; it has long left the far-right fringe to become increasingly more mainstream."

New #Berlinale chief Tricia Tuttle says Germany’s #Israel-#Gaza stance poses threat to #festival

Is Germany’s stance on Gaza leading artists to avoid one of Europe’s top film festivals?

According to the Berlin Film Festival’s new director, that may be the case.

Tricia Tuttle, who previously ran the BFI London Film Festival and succeeds Carlo Chatrian and Mariëtte Rissenbeek after having been appointed by Germany’s Culture Minister Claudia Roth, is about to helm her first edition this coming February. She has said that the impression #Germany is giving with regards to controlling free speech on the #MiddleEast conflict is directly affecting her first edition in charge, and that there are fears that criticism of Israel would be condemned as antisemitism in Germany.

Last month, the German parliament passed a resolution on the protection of Jewish life, a controversial move that has led opponents to say that it equates criticism of Israel with #antisemitism.

“People are really uncertain about it. And I’ve talked to artists who are questioning whether they want to come,” she added.

"Five members of #LetzteGeneration have been charged with “forming a criminal organisation”, ... under section 129 of the German criminal code. It is believed to be the first time the law has been applied to a non-violent protest group.

“This charge is meant for mafia and organised crime. This charge criminalises every act of support towards the group Letzte Generation. This creates an immense chilling effect on all #climate protests in #Germany.”
