BERLIN, 6ht JUNE 2026. Anarchists4Palestine (A4P) participated with an info and merch table at the 3 days Punkrock DIY Beton Paradise Fest at Wagendorf (trailer park) Wuhlheide. At the table many zines about solidarity with Palestine and infos for the upcoming Ulm 5 were abailable – also patches, pins and stickers. And shirts a.o. a shirt with the motive from Punks Against Apartheid (PAA) which was given together with a zine by PAA explaining the the symbols and situation and why punk bands should join the world wide Punks Against Apartheid network.
In the evening during the concert Anarchists4Palestine staged a speech about resistance and solidarity with Palestine. Masked with Kuffiyah one A4P comrade spoke the dynamic speech while two others held a banner with their network name “ANARCHISTS FOR PALESTINE”. During the speech spontaneously some smoke pyro was waved in front of the stage and on some trailer roof one did lit a Bengali flare — and the banner holders on the stage raised their fist. There was loud applause during and after the speech and the audience was shouting slogans for a FREE PALESTINE.
“Perhaps this is now the time to thank also all our antifascist, anarchist, alternative comrades – PUNKS OR NOT – from everywhere outside of Germany!
Don’t let us alone with all the Germans here. You brought much power here to Berlin, to force some here in our scene to recognize: No, its not normal to be silent about Genocide, no its not normal to always be on the wrong side of history!
ZIONIST PUNKS FUCK OFF!” (quote from the speech)

A4P Speech for Beton Paradise Fest 06.06.2026
We are Anarchists for Palestine!
We are a network of activists founded in Berlin in mid-2024 by comrades from different alternative, autonomous locations, housing projects and political groups.
Some of our goals was to break the silence in our leftwing and anarchist movement about the still ongoing genocide and to break the silence in parts of our scene.
Anarchists for Palestine support the Palestinian liberation struggle, Gaza and the West Bank actively. We stand with Palestine and fight the oppression by the enemy, so-called state of Israel.
Zionists and so-called Antideutsche, who proclaim to be leftists, always caused problems, not only since October 7th 2023. In many locations, not only in Berlin, there has also been many of these people who had problems to position themselves this or that way. That is the reason why they hindered others to hold events in our autonomous, anarchist, leftist, alternative, ex squatted houses and locations.
Just few weeks ago, some days before remembering the 78th anniversary of Nakba, the catastrophe of founding the State of Israel and displacing the Indigenous Palestinian people, some of our zionist enemies in our neighborhoods tore down lots of posters and for the call for demonstrations on Nakba day. Also we found graffitis saying „Pali-Nazis fuck off!”
On this point we say „Nazi-Punks fuck off!” , a famous song by the “US” band Dead Kennedys.
In July 2011 their singer Jello Biafra announced a gig in Tel Aviv.
PUNKS AGAINST APARTHEID ANNOUNCED a BOYCOTT CAMPAIGN AGAINST JELLO: Because racism isn’t punk rock! FINALLY Dead Kennedys dropped the concert, traveled around in Palestine and the singer said in a statement “I will not perform in Israel unless it is a pro-human rights, anti-occupation event, that does not violate the spirit of the boycott.”
We remember the solidarity punk concert with the title „STOP BOMBING RAFAH” in KÖPI in June 2024, just one or two month after A4P was found. The hardcore punk band Restarts from England played. Does somebody know this band, Restarts? Very infamous for their solidarity for Palestine… haha. The gig back than was cancelled in AGH because one person did not like to speak out against genocide. The concert took place in the catacombs of Köpi, in the basement and for the first time somebody did stage diving while holding a Palestine flag. I hope to see that as well today!
Now we are here at Wagenplatz Wuhlheide and I see the banner „FREE ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS”! A week ago, the trial hearings for our comrades the “Ulm5” took place before the Higher Regional Court in Stuttgart-Stammheim. For some of you, Stammheim is known for the RAF trials of the 1970s. It is a high-security facility for many so-called terrorists who are subjected to show trials.
Our comrades are accused of having broken into a building belonging to the Elbit Systems factory in order to draw attention to the genocide in Gaza and the complicity of the company. They are accused of having destroyed inventory and infrastructure, as well as being members of an alege criminal organization „Palestine Action Germany”. Elbit Systems is an international defense and defense technology corporation headquartered in Israel. The company develops and manufactures advanced systems for air forces, navies, armies, drones, cybersecurity, artillery systems, and precision munitions. Their CEO is called Marian Rachow, let’s go to occupy his home! (I could not find his address)
It is not resistance against war, occupation, and genocide that is criminal, but rather those who profit from it and politically and economically enable it. The German police state and the zionist entity called “Israel” are the terrorists, not us!!
Perhaps this is now the time to thank also all our antifascist, anarchist, alternative comrades – PUNKS OR NOT – from everywhere outside of Germany!
Don’t let us alone with all the Germans here. You brought much power here to Berlin, to force some here in our scene to recognize: No, its not normal to be silent about Genocide, no its not normal to always be on the wrong side of history!
ZIONIST PUNKS FUCK OFF!
We as A4P and punk bands around the World are part of Punks Against Apartheid.
We call on all antiracist, anti-fascist and anti-zionist punk bands: JOIN the worldwide network PUNKS AGAINST APARTHEID — contact them: see website and so called social media.
If you want to get in touch with Anarchists for Palestine – we have a INFO AND MERCH STAND here, at the market, next to the bar (depends the location then).
But also we have to say: Dear Punks! Let’s also not be silent in the streets! If you haven’t already: please join us in the rallies and demonstrations! The monthly demonstration for Palestine is taking place on June 13th. The topic is going to be execution law against Palestinian prisoners which the fascist government of so called Israel passed in late March.
Against Genocide! Against the Apartheid regime so called “Israel”! Fuck the so called IOF – Israeli Occupation Forces-
Death to Israel! (in hebrew:) Mavet le ISRAHELL!
FREE FREE PALESTINE!
FREE FREE PALESTINE!
