the fact that the german police broke down the door while the owner of building was literally providing them the key tells you everything you need to know. it was about violence and intimidation. absolute insanity.
they also made bigoted jokes about the JEWISH people they were arresting on charges of anti-semitism...
@@prismpyre7653 German police is infamous for being a breeding ground for violent right-wing extremists.
I am a German Palestinian who has been living in Germany since 1988. We could only reach West Germany because the DDR smuggled us in. The Federal Republic never wanted to fulfill its responsibility towards the Palestinian people. I have been demonstrating for a free Palestine in Berlin for over 20 years. With each passing year, the restrictions increased, and we were increasingly silenced. However, it was never as bad in Germany as it is currently. Every spark of expression is being extinguished. Only one narrative is allowed. The conflict is portrayed as Jewish, Islamic, not as a struggle against a colonial power. Germany has become unbearable when it comes to freedom of speech!
Best regards from a displaced Palestinian in the third generation, still waiting to kiss the ground of his homeland."
I wish you get a chance to visit your land someday soon. The hypocrisy is insane, sick and they are complicit in the genocide in more than this way as well.
Thanks for sharing your story.
We're falling into extreme fascism in Europe, definitely in Germany, France, Britain and Italy. Very scary.
Thank you for all the work that you all do❤❤❤
Free Palestine 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 ❤❤
‘From the river to the sea Palestine will be free’
Viva Resistencia!
You gotta give credit to Germany, whenever there’s a genocide they somehow always manage to get on the wrong side of it.
😂
The European gestapo at work again.
“Evil doesn’t sleep, it just waits”.
With the rise of the Greens, the 'Staatsschutz-Linke' (State Security Left) gained control of grassroot movements.
They told us they know "the better way of changing the system by invading the imperialist state's institutions".
Turns out, the system changed them, instead.
Yanis Varoufakis was also banned. And young Jewish man was arrested and taken away by police. How's that for a image ... a Jewish man being arrested by German police for standing against genocide!
German always made mistake
It is more than symbolic. It is how the jack boot of authority dismisses protesters, by force and violence.
I can’t even find the language to express how sick the world has become.
Neonazism is the word.
NOW THAT'S VERY VERY CIVILIZED & DEMOCRATIC !!😂😂😂😂
😂--->European democracy
@@fidelcatsro6948 😂😂😂
Scared from the truth. Shame on Germany
Ali is a most beautiful truthful speaker. Thank you so much
Germany descending into a depraved hypocrisy.
going back to their weimar roots
my German cat says ''Gott mit uns''
Looks like Germany has not learnt since World War 2.
Oh, you realize that only now? When has it ever been different? You have obviously fallen for the shiny speeches of the corrupted, who gave you a playground when it didn't really matter, unlike now.
And you have to realize, that now 50% of German citizens=electorate are migrants or first to second generation descendants of migrants. So take your responsibility for you profitting from the tribal identity politics.
An understatement. Plummeting into semicolonial fascism at the service of foreign interests.
It's not just Germany: France and Britain are in similar situation. This week Anasse Kazib (trotskyist candidate for President of France in last elections, Yellow Vest leader and railroad workers leader) was accused of "terrorism" for supporting Palestine.
We must not be silent while witnessing injustice. Israel is committing war crimes and Germany is complicit in those crimes.
Germany faithful to itself, always on the wrong side of a genocide...
Sad but true.
I blame the Palestinians for all this, how dare they ask politely for the right to live in security, how dare they ask politely for food, how dare they ask politely for medical access and most grievous of all, how dare they demand the return of their stolen homeland...
A leapard cant change its spots. Nor can Germany.
Nor can a leopard.
my Palestinian cat agrees!
They are like an injured animal backed into a corner. The injured beast is going to lash out. Like Ali said I can't rap my mind around how insane some of this stuff is. I've never seen so much outlandish nonsense like we've seen for the last 6 months
Almost equally shocking was the press conference concerning this incident. It is hard to describe you have to watch it.
Unfortunately, the link to the press conference gets erased. But if you search.”diem25” which is the name of the party yanis Varoufakis cofounded, you’ll find it. It is about 3 minutes long
Gestapo sleepers have awakened! A lot of it about and we don't have to look very far to see it in plain view "Papers please."
Belgium, Malta, and Spain are supportive of Palestinians and will be recognising the State of Palestine at the UN.
Don't forget Ireland, maybe the most coherent of all.
Norway too I guess...
As a German I do feel very much ashamed about my government, especially the Interior Ministry, for the behaviour at the Palestine conference. There was absolutely no reason to intervene. The onesideness of german policy towards Israel is unbearable and does not at all reflect the feeling of the majority of the people, as about two Third of the populace does not support Israels policy towards the palestinians.
I do hope that the organizers will sue the government for that clear and evident breach of our constitution and we need more pressure from abroad against this german adherance to the zionist narrative!
🤮😭
Not in my Name.
Nicht in meinem Namen!
Thank you for all you do beautiful souls of ei ❤❤❤❤❤
thank you electronic intifada!
Germany is equal accomplice in Palestinian genocide by Israel.
Raus Raus ...nowhere have i heard that before...im old but it was 85 years ago
So disappointed Ali was prevented from presenting in the Conference.😢
Everybody was: the conference itself was attacked by police and the electric supply cut.
I’m crying. I can’t believe this happened. It’s just awful. Terrible.
Thank you ei 🎉🎉🎉
Gestapo and Bibi left the chat
🇵🇸🕊️❤️
Outrageous!
The world’s only Psychotochracy
Peace love and prosperity to Palestine. ❤❤❤❤❤
Never again?
New legislation introduced in schools to deny the Nabka. It*s frightening. In Hamburg, you hardly see a Palestinian flag. I can't cope with it, the intimidation, fear of being singled out - Germans do not like to be seem as being different, losing employment, the list goes on.
The influence of the little man with the moustache lives on, and is being adopted by our Western world it seems!
Ever wondered who promoted fascism in all Europe back in the 1920s and 30s? It was Great Britain.
Gestapo is back in action! What a bunch of freaks there in Germany. Horrible developments.
No we want no palestine nazis in Germany. Go back !
In the real world at this time ISRAEL is a sinking ship.. captain Adolf Nathanyahu is playing his violin for the last time on the deck.End is near…………………………….so sad.
Hope you're right but IMO it's not over until it's over, and the genocidal Zionist project still has too much of a clout.
Germany never met a genocide they didn’t like.
Scary
Thank you for covering this. I have a video of that exact moment when they cut off the speech. It was so shocking when the girl was screaming "they even want to take my microphone!"
Germany never moved away from Nazi doctrine!
they never lost their taste for jenocyde, go figure
WHAT IS ANTI-SEMITISM?
Apparently anti-Semitism means disagreeing with Apartheid Israel.
Hate of Palestinians IMO, because Palestinians (and maybe Jordanians) are the only true descendants of ancient Hebrews (and their Canaanite precursors).
Yeah, I live in the U.S. and it’s strange but judging from the footage of protests the police in Europe are way more brutal
In defense of Europe there are other countries like Belgium or Spain and even Josep Borrell call out the genocide in Gaza. It is mainly the Germans in their self castigation regarding the Shoa which are not able to see their former victims turning into a racist genocidal country.
germany has fallen
2500 police to an audience of 150 people, because they reduced the capacity from 800 to 250, but then shut the gate at 150 audience. It is very shocking
Did they cut off the water as well? And build a 20' high wall around it?
I had tickets for the congress and was - to be honest - surprised it even started in the first place. Weeks in advance the government and press talked shit about us without any basis whatsoever. The whole friday was ridiculous! Entry was pushed back, capacity of the venue was brought down from 650 to 250 - so a lot of peeps with tickets didn't even get in in the first place. Then going to the protest camp at Reichstag was a pain because of the police presence in the city. Then the ending of Salman Abu Sitta's speech - which was said at the location didn't have anything said that goes against German law. Ending the whole congress and arresting a lot of people.
The police was also quite violent at the protest on saturday. And keeps being violent since.
Not in my name!
Thanks 🙏ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕਾ ਖਾਲਸਾ ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕੀ ਫਤਿਹ! Deg Teg Fateh, Panth Ki Jeet!
What’s the solution to the state suppression of information and freedom of discussion?
This is nuts you guys 2:44 We are just fully back at fascism
These are the values of WS, unfortunately.
Maybe they've always been like this, waiting for an opportunity to manifest it against a group of people.
And the best part is their "excuse": they do all this because they have a guilty conscience for having done all this in the past.
Iam so so ashamed as a german. Its discusting and a disgrace.I told you month ago what is going on here,now everyone see it themselfs. Its almost worster then what you see now.
😢😢😢
Please talk about the camp " Occupy against occupation" in front of the German Parliament in Berlin! The pro Palestinian camp started on April 8th, the Berlin Police is harassing us constantly since then!! During the streaming of the Palestinian Congress on Sunday April 14th police forced the screening to stop at the camp! Everyday police come to the camp and made up new rules to exhaust the participants. We need lawyers on site! Last Friday police stopped the Irish Block to sing in Irish at the camp, they harassed them and followed them to the caferia at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt museum!
The country of Bach,Goethe, Kant, Hegel, Marx...that civilization stopped long ago...with Bismarck, or possibly even earlier?
We are extremely close to the second coming of Christ. There could be no more obvious reason for how much so many things have deteriorated in the last ten to twenty years.
Today's Germany looks like it did in the first half of the interwar period (1923 -33).
It is known what and why happend next.
gestapo in the 21st century
Modern nazzi time
Germany trying to be on the right side of history: mission impossible.
I attended university under Franco, who was fairly repressive....but never anything like this suppression by thug....Has Germany lost its mind?
Some would say they never got it back, you know
You may never have experienced it personally but I have... in post-Francoism. Why? Because I'm Basque and communist. You were sleeping, you still are apparently.
@@LuisAldamiz Franco was repressive, but refusing to allow people to deplane? I had armed Guardia Civil in my classes, Catalan (and Basque) were not allowed in the University -- but Germany is acting out of control. Remember, after the starvation of the Civil War, many people just wanted peace.
@@alexglanz7406 - This that Germany (and other countries like France) is doing is clearly fascism but whitewashing historical fascism such as Franco's is utter blindness and very dangerous. Repression under Francoism was extremely brutal and would have they decided to close any conference, there would have got everyone arrested or killed on the spot, and those arrested would have been tortured and maybe killed in the police dungeons. And the cowardly people who allowed that terrorist regime to exist would have murmured: "habrán hecho algo..." (they may have done something...)
My aunt was a teacher in Ondarroa and one of her underage pupils dared to mumble something in Basque while in front of the Guardia Civil barracks; he was arrested at the spot and died under police custody (was beaten to death). And this did not stop with the death of Franco anyhow.
We have sent Milosevic in prison in LA HAYE for the ethnic cleansing of Srebrenica in 1995, (9000 Bosnian men and young men executed) and other things. With 35 000 civilian Palestinians being murdered in what constitutes a ghetto, Gaza, there is substance to send some political figures and military personnel to LA HAYE.
Every nation of the world has reached a point of having turned its back against God, Creator of heaven & earth, & when we turn our backs to Him, He turns His back to us & puts ppl over us to be among us & rule over us, who are used to see the difference btwn His ways and man's ways (or the demonic to be more precise) & turn back to Him. Every nation needs to stand in agreement in prayer, repenting for themselves, their nation, & all the nations in the world. United we stand, divided, we will fall. We are seeing repetitions of history in every nation. We need to all turn our faces back to God, for He alone is able to save us. Praying for ALL my brothers & sisters from other mothers, but from one Father, God (regardless of your belief system).
This is very disheartening
Gastapo or stasi
Stupid Propganda. Gestapo? Jesus, how low can you go?
🍉
Germany recently legalised cannabis. 🤯
Helps keeping people docile...
So what?
@@LuisAldamiz like martin said. It helps keep them docile.
@@pluto9000 - Not really: alcohol makes you docile, cannabis makes you rebel. I know what I'm talking about. That's why cannabis is illegal while that poison called alcohol is legal.
@@pluto9000 - I tried to reply before but was apparently censored. Alcohol is what keep people docile, alcohol and opiates, not cannabis. Cannabis makes you think outside the box, it makes you rather rebellious.
disgusting!! free Palestine
Quo vadis Germania?
Germany is always on the wrong side of history, they never learn from their mistakes
Election and media interference by Israel becomes more flagrant as it becomes weaker. Samson for western democracy?
The German government is just awful, but it’s not entirely unreasonable for governments to be able to prevent foreigners from engaging in controversial activity on their soil. The repression of German citizens protesting for Palestine is beyond disgusting.
Yanis Varoufakis is a EU citizen. This breaches the EU laws.
@@LuisAldamiz perhaps in your dreams but not in real life. EU law allows EU countries to refuse individual citizens of other EU countries entry for reasons of public security or public order.
@@Tch5802 - Maybe but this is against the right of free speech, which is also EU law. Mind you that Yanis Varoufakis is the leader of a pan-European political party Diem23 and there is objectively no threat to any security.
We're falling into extreme fascism as we speak.
German eagle is old now and he’s snoring..the color of the flag means newly wedded gay…
Beyond parody 🤮
Please stay out of Germany
My grand-grandfather left Germany in 1820. I decided to return from the Netherlands to Germany in 1995 ( the land of poets and thinkers ) in 2021 I left for Poland. Not that Poland is a free nation but my polish is so week that it hardly bothers me, since I don't understand what they say. During the 26 years I spent in Germany I learnt what that society looks like. The renewed shameless aggression towards Russia where Germany killed 27 million people and the suppression of support for Palestine. In the 19 th century there was a philosopher and military theorist named von Clausewitz who wrote the famous book "about war ". He said: "War is the diplomacy continued by other means" . I have an other version which goes like this: "The Federal Republic is the Third Reich, continued by other means". Soon I have to go to the Netherlands and for that I have to cross Germany. I consider applying a sticker at the back of my car with that text. I presume I will be stopped by the police at least 10 times during my travelling in Germany
Human rights organizations should question Germany about the violation of human rights by German authority on Palestinian supporters & activists in general in Germany
Reuters' photo of the year 2024 is beautiful.
Free Palestine
Did they think or believe that Germany is a free, independent, democratic state and country?
They must be too naive to assume so.
Germany is the last place on earth for fighting for human rights, especially Palestinian people.
You can protest for human rights, for child workers in Africa or for any sexual craziness, but never for human rights and especially against state politics and its system.
I bet you couldn't find a German cop to prevent assaults BUT they swarm outside conferences - WTF is wrong with these people ?
