E96: BANNED from Germany for speaking out for Palestine - with Yanis Varoufakis
The long repression of pro-Palestinian voices in Germany reached a peak last Friday.
German police shut down the Palestine Congress, a vital event to unite activists around a ceasefire for Gaza. They detained participants, including Jewish activists; they deported a Palestinian speaker. And then they banned our own Yanis Varoufakis, not only from making political speeches in Germany, but also from doing so over Zoom (!).
These authoritarian moves make it clear: Germany is intent on silencing anyone who speaks out against its complicity in Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza.
So for our livestream this week, Yanis Varoufakis and colleagues who attended the Palestine Congress will be dissecting this brazen act of state repression against Palestinian solidarity. What lessons can we draw? How has the reaction been? And what could all this mean for the future of free speech and pro-Palestine activism in Germany, and around the world?
Join us live and have your say!

*German construction companies have been building for ten years on Palestinian land for Israeli payments which Obama decried in 2015 before leaving office to Trump, who in turn undid all that Obama did. ..for racist reasons.

...and oddly enough all the German employees on these building sites were German as compared to building sites in Germany which are almost entirely Turkish or Albanian or Bulgarian. so, the Germans who built on stolen Palestinian land were hand picked. Germans usually don't work on building sites in German...the sector is totally foreign in Germany.

Be prepared to pay admission for the display that proves nothing. Latest figures were 70k died in camps. Typhus and starvation. Camps continued years after the war. Roads and rails bombed. No food could be delivered. Jews had no where to go and they starved to death. Those are the photos you see they say the Nazis did maliciously.

German authorities need to be sued, so that a precedent is created that prevents them from doing this every time. If they know they cannot get away with it, they will be much more reserved in their actions. And the comments by the interior minister were just revolting - she needs to be taught a political lesson for that.
Thank goodness for social media. This newsworthy story about political repression in Germany over standing up for Palestinians and standing against the ongoing ethnic cleansing and genocide in Gaza by the Israeli State is something we all need to know about, like here in Australia.

Appalling as it is, I am not surprised. German military exports to Israel are up nearly 10-fold since Nov 2023. Conversely, Germany is one of the top recipients of Israel surveillance tech and police training (marketed as "tested and proven in battle"--see Palestine Laboratory by Anthony Lowenstein, pub. by Verso). Both sides are making huge amounts of money. In fact, 99% of Israeli weapon imports are from US and Germany. And jobs in military tech all over the US sphere of influence have skyrocketed...

I feel shocked that this is all happening in Germany, despite the many indicators and the tendencies. I am very angry. It IS the German government. It IS those in power, BUT.....if normal Germans don't wake up very soon, they too, will be responsible for the slide into a much worse situation. Every one of us has personal agency. Everyone should be aware of their government's behaviour and inform themselves and be ready to take action and hold those people who are accountable to justice.

Also in Italy, being "compagni" goes beyond the negative connotation that was attached by English cultures and politics to the term. At school you call your mates "compagni", which is way more human and collectivizing than "colleagues". Then maybe, the communist era spread this connotation. But I'm against my vocabulary being held hostage by outdated ideologies from the east or the west.

Demanding that the world looks at the events in Gaza and sees the genocide on Palestinians is Humanisms. And the opposite is injustice and wrong altogether and must stop immediately.
Free Palestine! From Polen.
Fascism, here we go again ...

Yanis’ words are important, describing where we are headed. So is everyone within or aligning with DiEM25 / Mera, PI - anyone sensing or experiencing the outcomes of the political economy we _actually have._ Not what we _thought_ we had. If you are - or would like to be - a DiEM-25 member in 🇳🇴, search internally for the Oslo Collective. We’re few, but we are one with people across arbitrary borders of any kind. Our differences are our wealth - Our issues are shared…!
There's no compromising when speaking out against genocide, regardless of who is complicit in these atrocities. Unfortunately all gentle protest is conflated with antisemitism, even when those protesters include Jewish people who stand for peace.

You need to challenge the Government in German court for this unconstitutional behaviour towards yourself and Prof Abu Sitta. Does anybody do this? Am pretty certain the judiciary will not look at this official behaviour kindly. It is called Verfassungsbeschwerde. I think it needs to be raised by a German citizen.
Sorry mate it is the Germans! Dont absolve yourself of responsibility. That majority of German people are not standing up against their Government and that makes them an accomplice to what is happening
This is a trend...ciyizen atrested for displaying a. "Z"
I was also given a time out for contributing to this live chat. My comments were relevant to the situation. Since I watch and listen from the UK were is your solidarity ?
Germany just can’t get this genocide thing right. They get confused,
