Germany is now deporting pro-Palestine EU citizens. This is a chilling new step | Hanno Hauenstein
The country’s so-called political centre has licensed a new era of authoritarianism – to the AfD’s delight, says Hanno Hauenstein, a Berlin-based journalist
Germany has recently taken a chilling new step, signalling its willingness to use political views as grounds to curb migration. Authorities are now moving to deport foreign nationals for participating in pro-Palestine actions. As I reported this week in the Intercept, four people in Berlin – three EU citizens and one US citizen – are set to be deported over their involvement in demonstrations against Israel’s war on Gaza. None of the four have been convicted of a crime, and yet the authorities are seeking to simply throw them out of the country.
The accusations against them include aggravated breach of the peace and obstruction of a police arrest. Reports from last year suggest that one of the actions they were alleged to have been involved in included breaking into a university building and threatening people with objects that could have been used as potential weapons.
But the deportation orders go further. They cite a broader list of alleged behaviours: chanting slogans such as “Free Gaza” and “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free”, joining road blockades (a tactic frequently used by climate activists), and calling a police officer a “fascist”. Read closely, the real charge appears to be something more basic: protest itself.
Germany repeating the history. Twice.
fascism in Germany! now I've heard everything
What people on this thread dont realize. It seems like what they did was quite more severe than just calling a police officer a fascist.
Translated:
An attempt was made to drag employees out of offices; the attackers were “also masked and armed with axes, saws, crowbars and clubs”. Six-figure property damage was caused
It really blows my mind. Masha Gessen, Nancy Fraser, Yuval Abraham, Omri Boehm, and also others not mentioned in the article. Who the fuck gave Germany the right to decide who is a good pro-Israel Jew and who is a bad anti-Israel Jew? Germany of all countries, being in the business of labelling Jewish people as acceptable and unacceptable. The fucking nerve on these people.
Why bother with the half measures.
Just take the mask off and send them to the torture prison in El Salvador with all the other baselessly accused and right denied.
German unification was a mistake.
Nope...I can only handle one Western country going down the batshit stupidity rabbit hole at a time.
Zionists on the post 4 days ago were less quirky than on this one.
Beautiful display of this brainrot ideology, if you can’t deny it, it’s antisemitism…
If a Genocide wasn’t being conducted against Palestinians, it would be comical how detached these people are.
The real umbrella term is tolerance, you embrace it and it covers you, you either fall in line and integrate or you're out.
Nowhere is set in stone that you have a right to bring the shit that made you flee your country into your host country and escape consequence.
Good riddance, globalism is absolute shit.
So, once a nazi, always a nazi, it seems. Carved Hakenkreuzes in foreheads for all of them.
I'm EU citizen, I go into Germany if I so please. I'll do it and I'll do it again.
Where are all the people cheering up for germany government preparing for war?
