- Just when you thought that repressions, cancel culture, and defamations can't get much worse in Europe, there comes along Germany and shatters even the remaining bit of norms left about the "liberal democracy". On the weekend of April 14, activists and scholars had planned to hold a congress in Berlin to discuss the plight of the Palestinians, but the event was dissolved by special police forces within only 2 hours, some of its speakers were arrested and others were barred from entering Germany, including Yanis Varoufakis, the former Greek finance minister and current greek politician. Here is the full story with Dieter Reinich, interviewed by Fritz Edlinger (our colleague and friend in Vienna).
A shining example of European “democracy” and “human rights”. 🤮
And they have the audacity to lecture other countries on human rights. The west really has no moral high ground on human rights
Please keep it a national issue and not stereotype it onto a continent of different countries.
Comrade, let us raise our frosty steins of dark lager and join in a chorus of Tomorrow Belongs To Me from Bob Fosse’s film “Cabaret.”
Wow,, Germany really is on the wrong side of history again!
What was described could be made into a full length movie.
Extraordinary
It is not only Germany. We need to distinguish between the people of a nation and their elites. Greetings from Greece, which has suffered only second to the USSR in the hitlerites regime.
same in Belgium.
Rhineland = Ashkenaz in Yiddish.
so Germany = Ashkenaz.
@@occupyscience-9479 once is by chance. twice is by coincidence. the third time it is a pattern.
Holy shit! Germany is a Banana Republic.
Sounds about like the US these days. Imagine these countries fighting (or hiring out for fighters) for freedom and democracy in Ukraine (who has cancelled elections, among other "problematic" behaviors).
Freedom and democracy mean in the west:
- u are free as long as u are agree with us and stand with us.
- u are democratic as long as u do what say or ask for.
Banana republics do not do these kind of things. they only happen in the West. i live in a banana republic and we laid the case at the ICJ
Bin Deutsche, aber das stimmt ! 😏
more like a Jaffa Orange republic... wait, Jaffa oranges were originally Palestinian until the Zionists stole them...
Amazing how Germany is always on the wrong side of history
So is the USA.
Where is the report of a Palestine Congress from your country?
I'm sorry to say this because some of my dearest friends are German. But, for God's sake, Germany, you've been here before and you know damn well where it ends. Stop this lunacy now.
Genug!
Gather and preserve every ounce of evidence & sue the Police. This was a breach of every civil right in the book.
The police were doing what they were told to do by higher authorities. It's these authorities that should be held responsible.
In USA, there is a fine constitution, but the courts are very deferential to the State. Germany developed democratic principles thought to lawyers etc., but when raison d'etat is raised, at this time it is hard to tell how deferential German judges will be. Note the prosecutor in the building of the conference... Like judges, prosecutors are lawyers hired by the state on merit basis, so they should not be more biased than judges. Authorities can find the most indoctrinated police in the federal republic, most biased prosecutors, the cases will be assigned to biased judges. Dark times, but CZcams still allows to report on it -- will they ban Neutrality Studies in Germany, on the request of authorities?
Europeans don’t really have rights. The governments there can oppress pretty freely when they feel like it.
@@galanis38 .. Yup. You find out who told them what to do by suing them.
@@piotrberman6363 .. The only way to find out is to sue them. If this stand, nobody can feel safe any longer.
The police acted like BRUTAL THUGS!
Germany government shows its color. Wrong side again!
Shame Shame Shame!! Is this is your democracy and freedom of speech?!!
Liberal totalitarianism. So much for freedom of speech. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for the translation into English. We (the citizens of the colonizers) need to understand the situation. You are promoting our understanding.
Yes.its fantastic when AI translated
This is quite scary.
This is quite expected.
Was going to say that freedom in Germany is just a veneer, but regrettably, I realised that it is now the same throughout the 'free west'
Since no one will say the obvious: German police were acting like Nazis. But so are Israel soldiers in Gaza. Talk about historical irony.
Who would have said that #GERMANY is such a democracy... That "DEMOCRACY" made us hate each other here in Balkan...
This is beyond worrying. A salute to the organisers for the intention of discussing pressing matters. And shame on the German Gov.
18:00 that seems as organised crimes by the institutions: Legislative body, executive body, Media... behaving like criminal thugs...
The German media is basically a mafia.
The Springer Verlag is an extreme right and white-supremacist publisher that exercises immense power in Germany with its wealth. These openly nazi people never have to fear any consequences for their actions or words. There’s political cover offered by every ruling party.
Good to see this channel is still growing rapidly. Congrats with 100k subs!
Very good and you just reminded us about protests in the North of Ireland in peace time. God bless all in the world who are suffering. We are nothing to the leaders.
Nice adjustment of the term he used. I did the same.
Thank you Pascal for all the great work and dedication to the truth!❤
Dictatorship is an accurate way to describe this!
Danke für den guten Bericht von den Berliner Vorgängen.
I can see the agitation and anger
the more people talk about 'democracy' , ' human rights ' , ' free speech ' and so on , the more I become suspicious .
These events are terrifying. Thanks for making them public.
Zionaughtsees everywhere.
💯👹👹
Whether a country uses democracy or not shouldn't be our question, as though the answer is either "yes" or "no": We should ask how **legitimate** is the democracy; but then, we'll start to ask, what makes a democratic system legitimate, and it's that question the Plutocrats don't want asked.
"democracy" has merely become a word.
History will ask how we ...the people that is....let this happen! There are more and more of this type of thing happening but little publicity about it......which is all part of the problem
Excellent video and frightening content. Thank you for the translation.
State terrorism :(
Great programme and very informative discussion. Thank you Fritz and Dieter.
More on this please.
Excellent!! Thank you! This is frightening…
It is very worrisome. The repression of pro-Palestine voices is beyond acceptable
My thesis at the university was about the slowly but surely changing of the constitution in Germany under the third Reich. It has begun in such a way. It is really awful. Un believable
Western "Values" 😅😅😂
I can't help picturing Ursula von der Leyen saying "our European values."
Thanks so much for this detailed report. It sure indicates what the world is up against at this time! Why are some ‘actors’ so intent on justifying this genocide of innocent people? Makes one wonder what is behind the curtain?
We must get rid of identity politics asap
Es ist in Wirklichkeit viel schlimmer...
Was für eine tolle journalistische Arbeit, ich hoffe, Sie werden woanders verwendet
Vielen Dank. PS Herr Edlinger's accent is wonderful
56 comments at time of writing - yet only 19 are shown!
Shadowbanning much CZcams?!?!
Would these govt. actions hold up in German or EU/HR court? If so, German legislation is darker in ways unknown to many ordinary Europeans - and surely Germans themselves.
As a DiEM member through 4 years, I stand with ordinary Germans and everyone else suffering from both the conflict itself, and this surprising political repression.
Thanks for sharing this vital first person experience. Carpe Diem…!
So much for freedom to self-organize.
thank you for this translation..I saw the german edition but this is better to understand
I don't understand why it is written 24 comments but there are 11 inclusive answers. Where are the rest?
no doubt deleted
Censorship! Comments being deleted/blocked.
Press Newest at the top of comments and it will refresh. It doesn't happen instantaneously.
Also the other reasons noted here are also correct.
The ones on the dark side of history showing it's true colors again shame shame
Congrats Pascal to your first 100k! ❤
Once again, thank you.
Same here in Sweden. Sweden just passed a law completely ignoring normal practice and despite most of the public being against the law - I’m talking about the gender identity law. Something is happening.
Unbelievable.
Thank you
Danke für den detaillierten aufklärenden Bericht! Wirklich schlimm, was hier passiert
Appalling
Vielen Dank
Never again? It's happening again
Scholtz needs a mustache and his hair on his head
🎯
This is the future of the EU, wait and see.
I am amazed at the escalation and strength of anti palestinian groups and pro Israeli in germany and elsewhere..what is their motive? Are they really intent on another genocide??
You're mixing up Palestinians and Hamas. People are anti-Hamas, anti-Hezbollah and anti Islamic fanaticism. Hamas' own charter when it took power in Gaza was the annihilation of the Jews in Israel and the establishment of an Islamic state. After they were elected, Hamas tracked down any opposition to it in Gaza and tortured, imprisoned, and killed those Palestinians who opposed it. They plundered the billions of dollars in aid sent to Gaza and used it for their war against Israel. I was working in Iran back in 1976 when the fanatical Islamists hijacked the peoples' revolution against the Shah and the USA. Intellectuals, socialists, and women were their first victims. Many people I knew were murdered. These are the sort of people you are supporting when you support Hamas and Hezbollah.
I was under the impression that the Gestapo was disbanded, but I guess only in East Germany, because of the Soviets, but in the western part of Germany, it is still part of the government.

What, they think third time's the charm?
That would be the north of Ireland.
Na#i Germany is back😢
Invite Dr.Ankit Shah for a Collaboration. 😊
What in the 1938 is this?
Shame on Germany, in the wrong side of history, once more
German police banning 'glorification of violence' is just plain comedy😂. While endorsing open genocide, peaceful demonstration is deemed violence. Only Germans can come up with this and of course, Israelies.
Please stop the voiceovers and use subtitles. I refuse to watch this.
Absolutely chilling. Martin Neomoller's poem, inscribed on a holocaust memorial constantly plays in my mind. The information provided in this interview should terrify anyone who believes in the fundamental tenets of democracy.
❤🇮🇱🇩🇪❤️
Daniel Mate, a US Jew and trauma expert as his world-renowned father Gabor Mate, a Holocaust survivor, names your condition as Holocaust psychosis. You might want to look into it to heal your psychotic mental condition... and to FREE yourself!
This is the re-writing of German history, takes us back to the early days of Nazi Germany when the SS started its brutality against its population to stamp its authority. People of Germany your inaction back then is still being felt in your country today. This governments works for outside and corporate interests rather than its own population, hence when intellectuals address your population it is seen as a threat to government stability. People of Germany this is your chance to correct this, remove this government and must take more initiative and a greater role in this new way of governance, to never allow this to happen again for the sake of the future generations. THIS HAS TO HAPPEN OR GET USED TO SEEING YOUR CHILDREN STARVE AND THEIR ENTIRE FUTURE REDUCED TO A UNBEARABLE LIFESTYLE.
PS. This short leader of Germany takes a business delegation to China to protect their interests and was treated like a doormat by the Chinese people because he is a deplorable leader, we from the East stand with you in allegiance and support. REMOVE ALL FOREIGN FORCES FROM YOUR COUNTRY AND RECLAIM IT FOR THE SAKE OF THE KIDS..
This is the western values that the west are so proud?
