About the handful “poor and innocent protestors” which the Berlin government tried to deport for taking part in a violent occupation of the Berlin Free University, which then tried to claim this was a retaliation for “simple demonstrating against Israel.”
Awesome. And it worked because it got the media to focus on the genocide even if it took further escalation and even if it was negative press. This is an entirely righteous and historically common way to raise attention that hey our government and university is complicit in the murder of 10s of thousands of kids and civilians. This is no different than the white rose resistance. Good for these students. They are heros who are risking their education, rights, and careers to give a voice to those who may not have one.
While I don’t tend to idolize America be any means, at least we have of freedom of speech. You focus on a protest in the context of a native ethnic group getting wiped off the face of the earth. There is mass starvation and civilian targeting. Its terrible that one person was injured and it’s terrible this is what it takes for people to pay attention, but compared to genocide? You need to take a look at your priorities.
Wow, another comparison dumb as a rock. So if I murder an innocent person to get attention for Palestine, it’s also okay, because compared to Genocide it’s also not that bad?
No one was killed at Freie Universität. You can keep making up scenarios where protestors are killing people but again where are you priorities? That kids shouldn’t protest by occupying university building? That’s a historical way university students have protested. It brought pressure to end Vietnam and south African apartheid in my country.
I’m not your enemy. I just want you to know you are being closed minded. I understand violence is sometimes something that pops up in these moments, but you’re missing the bigger picture. And why do you need to make fantastical scenarios when there are children being starved to death right now? What are you even trying to argue? That we should be genocidong Palestinians that we should ban students from occupying buildings at their university? I mean I think it’s just odd that you can excuse killing of brown children in far away places but you can’t excuse a janitor sho got injured in an occupation in protest of that genocide. It’s just one sided and you should just think about it is all.
I never claimed someone was killed. I just wanted to know where you draw the line at “crimes justified to get attention to Palestine”.
People can also occupy their university peacefully without destroying it and threatening staff.
Also, those comparisons you make still won’t fly. Those crimes did nothing to improve the position of the people in Gaza, only stroking the ego of the people committing them.
It’s very mean of Germany that foreigners who trash University property and threaten their staff violently face deportation.
How can they do such a suppression of free speech?
What are you referring to here?

Oh so threatening innocent people with violence and thrashing public universities is righteous?
Completely disgusting. Cheering criminal activities is also a criminal offence in Germany
Also the Weiße Rose never attacked innocent people. So don’t dirt their name by comparing them to these people
