On 27 September in Berlin, we take to the streets under the banner: Total Liberation, Fight Normalization.

We come together to demand the total liberation of Palestine. This is not charity, not entertainment, and not empty slogans. It is part of a living liberation movement that refuses erasure and insists on freedom, return, and justice.

Even the governments that form the backbone of imperialism, the very powers that have armed, financed, and shielded Zionism since its creation, now dare to pose as humanitarians. From the US to Germany, from the UK to the Arab regimes rushing to normalize with the zionist entity, they shamelessly voice concern over the “human tragedy unfolding in Gaza.” Yet these same entities have been active participants in the ongoing genocide and profit off the relentless land theft. Their maliciousness is clear: while advancing zionist narratives and interests, they reduce Gaza to a mere “humanitarian issue,” attempting to hijack the Palestine solidarity movement, liberalize it, and strip it of any substance. They condemn the resistance of the Palestinian people, erase their perspective, and at the same time performatively distance themselves from the ongoing genocide.

NGOs, hand in hand with their sponsors, have historically been at the forefront of deradicalizing and dismantling movements that are not in the service of their governments by co-opting their demands, redirecting them towards institutional reform, and isolating principaled elements. Palestinian blood is not a fundraising tool for German NGOs or a backdrop for celebrities. Our resistance is not an aesthetic — it is a movement for justice and liberation without compromise.

We reject any attempts of normalization and discourses that call for “peace” for “Israel” and Palestine. There can never be “peace” with an apartheid regime built on ethnic cleansing. Liberation comes before reconciliation. We must stand firm with the right of the Palestinian people for self-determination, which includes people resisting the occupation, settler-colonialism, apartheid, and the ongoing genocide, and must include the liberation of all historic Palestine. Anything less than that is betrayal to the Palestinian people and capitulation to the occupation.

We march to affirm:

• No false “balance.” Palestine is not a conflict between two sides. It is a people resisting settler-colonialism, apartheid, and genocide.
• The Palestinian struggle is anti-colonial and anti-racist — part of the global struggle for liberation.
• Every form of resistance against occupation is legitimate.
• True solidarity means confronting Zionism, German complicity, and the systems that sustain the colonial occupation, genocide, and ethnic cleansing — not obscuring reality with vague humanitarian language and hollow condemnations.

Spread the word and join us on 27 September in the streets of Berlin. Total Liberation, Fight Normalization.
