During the demo of the so called “antideutsche”/ (pro-)zionist demo, in Berlin at 5th October a successful intervention by parts of the pro-Palestine movement took place in Berlin.
People managed to hold protest signs against the genocide, Palestine scarfs, Palestine flags, Antifa flags and shouting slogans against the zionist demo. Important to mention that the most flags of the zionists, who proclaim to be antifascist, has been nearly only Israel flags in all variations.
There were stencils sprayed with slogans like “Free Gaza” or “Free Antifa from zionism”, what did catch the attention of the zionists. And also a small bannerdrop which was be seen by the Pro-Israel demo get the attention, after some while an antideutsch “action” group was going there to remove it.
At one point the zionist demo was forced to stop, because of scuffles from the “antideutsche” and police against the pro Palestine protesters about Palestine flags and scarfs. After a while the police managed to push away the protesters to encircle them for to check the ID. It has to be mentioned that the “Staatsschutz” special political police and an arrestment bus with ID-checking technology inside was from the beginning on next to the demo, in cooperation with the organizers. All protesters was later released after the ID checks.
The hardcore antideutsche who are supporting the right-wing Israel Netanyahu government did register 1000 persons, also to have more police protection, and mobilized since more than a month in Berlin and in different other cities of germany for their demo in Berlin. But people on the ground counted only up to 450 persons. Because of the “deutsche Staatsräson” the german police did publish a higher fantasy number of 600 participants: this they do for all Pro-Israel demos and rallies – or did they count themselves in?
For non-Berliners it must be stated that these few of this newly formed self-proclaimed “Antifa Berlin”-group who initiated the zionist demo don’t represent the antifascist movement here and they are not part of the antifascist and anti-racist mobilizations here.
It can be analyzed that the goals was reached to create a bit of chaos inside and outside the demo to bring it to a halt and to show in public that a demo of the racist so called “antideutsche” will not pass through Berlin anymore without protest.
Free, free Palestine! Free Antifa from zionism! Against fascism – everywhere!
