Youths on scooters targeted Maccabi supporters in “hit and runs”

“I understand that it brings back memories of pogroms,” she said. “It is deeply damaging to the city”.

The mayor said that Maccabi supporters were not known to be violent and in football terms, the match was not considered high risk.

The counter-terrorism unit NCTV was unaware of any concrete threats, she said but said action would be needed to ensure there was no trouble, in particular given the combination of football and commemorations for Kristallnacht.

Israeli hooligans’ racist chants and provocation in Amsterdam spark international outrage

Over 200 Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters, many reportedly linked to the Israel Defence Forces (IDF), took to the streets of Amsterdam on Wednesday and Thursday. Demonstrators were filmed tearing down Palestinian flags and chanting aggressive anti-Arab slogans, including, „Let IDF win to F*#k Arabs” and „There are no schools in Gaza because there are no children left.“

Videos of these chants and confrontations quickly spread across social media, amplifying tensions between pro-Palestinian groups and the visiting fans.

The clashes, which occurred both before and after the match, have sparked widespread condemnation. Eyewitness reports and videos shared on social media show Maccabi fans vandalising property, attacking bystanders, and even setting a Palestinian flag on fire.

Israeli fans ‚attacked houses with Palestine flags‘ in Amsterdam

The broadcaster’s correspondent Step Vaessen said: “Hundreds of supporters of Maccabi Tel Aviv came to Amsterdam, held a very vocal rally in the main square before the incident, waving Israeli flags, and also took down a Palestinian flag.”

Police had said they were being particularly vigilant ahead of the match.

City councilman Jazie Veldhuyzen said: “They [Israeli fans] began attacking houses of people in Amsterdam with Palestinian flags, so that’s actually where the violence started.

UCLA Palestine Solidarity Encampment Press Release

For over seven hours, zionist aggressors hurled gas canisters, sprayed pepper spray, and threw fireworks and bricks into our encampment. They broke our barriers repeatedly, clearly in an attempt to kill our community.

Campus safety left within minutes, external security the university hired for “backup” watched, filmed, and laughed on the side as the immediate danger inflicted upon us escalated. Law enforcement simply stood at the edge of the lawn and refused to budge as we screamed for their help. The only means of protection we had was each other. WE KEEP EACH OTHER SAFE.

For over seven hours, zionist aggressors hurled gas canisters, sprayed pepper spray, and threw fireworks and bricks into our encampment. They broke our barriers repeatedly, clearly in an attempt to kill our community.

Campus safety left within minutes, external security the university hired for “backup” watched, filmed, and laughed on the side as the immediate danger inflicted upon us escalated. Law enforcement simply stood at the edge of the lawn and refused to budge as we screamed for their help. The only means of protection we had was each other. WE KEEP EACH OTHER SAFE.

Despite the danger, we refused to engage standing by the principles of our encampment—self defense. For all the school’s pretense of student safety, we have experienced an unprecedented amount of violence and hatred while they stood by. The university’s hypocrisy all too apparent, as signs of this escalation were reported, documented, and indicated early on. The zionist attacks, their use of chemical weaponry, their hatred, their destruction, are but a microcosm of the genocide in Gaza. The university would rather see us dead than divest.

Pro-Israel counter-protesters attempt to storm encampment, sparking violence

Fireworks, tear gas and fights broke out just after 10:50 p.m. Tuesday night and continued early Wednesday morning as around 100 pro-Israel counter-protesters attempted to seize the barricade around and storm the ongoing Palestine solidarity encampment in Dickson Plaza.

The chaos comes as Chancellor Gene Block faces criticism for improper handling of the encampment and the same day the university deemed the encampment to be unlawful, threatening students inside with suspension and expulsion. Security and UCPD both retreated as pro-Israel counter-protesters and other groups attacked protesters in the encampment – led by Students for Justice in Palestine and UC Divest Coalition at UCLA – that followed similar ones across the country.

UK slaps sanctions on West Bank settlers for ‘egregious’ violence, following US move

British Foreign Secretary David Cameron said the four targeted Israeli settlers, one of whom was also included in the US sanctions, were involved in “egregious abuses of human rights.”

“Extremist Israeli settlers are threatening Palestinians, often at gunpoint, and forcing them off land that is rightfully theirs,” he added. “This behavior is illegal and unacceptable.”

Executive Order on Imposing Certain Sanctions on Persons Undermining Peace, Security, and Stability in the West Bank

I, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United States of America, find that the situation in the West Bank — in particular high levels of extremist settler violence, forced displacement of people and villages, and property destruction — has reached intolerable levels and constitutes a serious threat to the peace, security, and stability of the West Bank and Gaza, Israel, and the broader Middle East region. These actions undermine the foreign policy objectives of the United States, including the viability of a two-state solution and ensuring Israelis and Palestinians can attain equal measures of security, prosperity, and freedom. They also undermine the security of Israel and have the potential to lead to broader regional destabilization across the Middle East, threatening United States personnel and interests. For these reasons, these actions constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States. I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat. Accordingly, I hereby order:

Section 1. All property and interests in property that are in the United States, that hereafter come within the United States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or control of any United States person, including any foreign branch, of the following persons are blocked and may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in:

(a) any foreign person determined by the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, or the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State:

(i) to be responsible for or complicit in, or to have directly or indirectly engaged or attempted to engage in, any of the following:

(A) actions — including directing, enacting, implementing, enforcing, or failing to enforce policies — that threaten the peace, security, or stability of the West Bank; or

(B) planning, ordering, otherwise directing, or participating in any of the following actions affecting the West Bank:

(1) an act of violence or threat of violence targeting civilians;

(2) efforts to place civilians in reasonable fear of violence with the purpose or effect of necessitating a change of residence to avoid such violence;

(3) property destruction; or

(4) seizure or dispossession of property by private actors;

(ii) to be or have been a leader or official of:

(A) an entity, including any government entity, that has engaged in, or whose members have engaged in, any of the activities described in subsections (a) or (b) of this section related to the leader’s or official’s tenure; or

(B) an entity whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order as a result of activities relating to the leader’s or official’s tenure;

(iii) to have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or services to or in support of, any person blocked pursuant to this order; or

(iv) to be owned or controlled by, or to have acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, any person blocked pursuant to this order; or

(b) any foreign person determined by the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury:

(i) to have committed or have attempted to commit, to pose a significant risk of committing, or to have participated in training to commit acts of terrorism affecting the West Bank; or

(ii) to be a leader or official of an entity sanctioned pursuant to subsection (b)(i) of this section.

The U.K. is banning violent Israeli settlers from entering the country, Foreign Secretary David Cameron announced Thursday, in a bid to “make sure our country cannot be a home for people who commit these intimidating acts.”

Fall Lina E. vor dem OLG Dresden: Urteil gegen eine linke Symbolfigur

(31.05.2023)

Im Frühjahr 2022 erbrachte die Verteidigung eines Berliner Angeklagten ein Alibi für ihren Mandanten. Grundlage für den Tatvorwurf gegen ihn war ein von Ermittlern abgehörtes Gespräch, das jedoch offenbar falsch interpretiert wurde.

Es war das erste Mal, dass im Verfahren grundlegende Zweifel an der fehlerfreien Arbeit der Bundesanwaltschaft aufkamen. Im Februar 2023 erbrachte die Verteidigung des vierten Angeklagten Jannis R. ebenfalls ein Alibi für eine der angeklagten Taten. Auch in diesem Fall war die falsche Interpretation eines abgehörten Gesprächs Basis für die Verdächtigung.

Bis zum Sommer 2022 hatte die Verhandlung vieles von ihrer Dynamik verloren. Das änderte sich erst, als die Anklage mit Johannes D. einen Zeugen aus dem engsten Bekanntenkreis der Tatverdächtigen präsentierte.

Regimetreue in Israel: “Eine Nation, ein Land, ein Führer”

(10. August 2014)

Wie erwähnt, erließ das Heimatfrontkommando das Verbot von Menschenansammlungen über 1000 Personen bereits am 18. Juli. Trotzdem demonstrierten am 26. Juli 5000 Menschen auf dem Tel Aviver Rabin Platz gegen den Gaza-Krieg. Doch ausgerechnet am gestrigen weltweiten Aktionstag, wo die Chance bestanden hätte sich mit zahlreichen Demonstrationen und Gegnern des Gaza-Krieges international zu solidarisieren und organisieren, kniffen Meretz und Hadash, die seit Jahren durch das gewisse Nichts glänzen, und sagten die Demonstration ab.

Nicht so radikale Aktivisten, Sozialisten, Dissidenten, Intellektuelle: sie kündigten an, trotz Verbots des Regimes zu demonstrieren. (1, 2, 3, 4)

Nachdem sich Boulevardreporter zunächst höhnisch über die ausbleibenden Linken geäußert hatten, versammelten sich diese, vorsichtig umher schauend, langsam auf dem Rabin Platz, viele von ihnen Senioren. Letztlich wurden es rund 500 Leute. Schnell tauchten die üblichen Regimetreuen, Faschisten und Zionisten als Contras auf, darunter Hooligans. Aus deren Parolen seien die oben in Aufnahmen dokumentierten Plakate zitiert (1, 2): “Eine Nation, ein Land, ein Führer”. Manch einer fragte sich, wo er das wohl schon mal gehört hatte.

(…)

Genau die Aufgeregten, Befleissigten und Empörten, die den Massenmord in Gaza decken und dabei im selben Atemzug nur noch “jüdisch”, “Israel”, “Linke-Linke-Linke” und “Antisemitismus” rufen, wollen mit linken Israelis überhaupt nichts zu tun haben. Stattdessen verstecken sie sich hinter Apologeten die sie angenehm an der Schamdrüse kitzeln, während sie gleichzeitig um diejenigen Israelis einen großen Bogen machen, die ihnen irgendwie die Mehrheitsfähigkeit und damit das Mitschwimmen auf der Welle in der vermeintliche Masse von Deutschland versauen könnten.

Im Hintergrund steht eine weitere Klientel, die durchaus von der obenstehend beschriebenen zu unterscheiden ist, ebenso von den einfachen Sadisten: die Klientel der Soziopathen, kaltschnäuzigen Zyniker und politischen Kampfdrohnen mit Roboterideal. Soll heißen: explizit der Berliner Regierung und ihren Angestellten und Höflingen, auch in der etablierten Presse.

Die von uns am 2. August prognostizierte Strategie einer Verwicklung Deutschlands in den Gaza-Krieg, wahrscheinlich an irgendeiner Spieltheorie-Schiessbude von Think Tank Schlagdichtot ausgeheckt, ist gegen die Wand gefahren. Und das mit Schwung.

Wer es noch nicht mitbekommen hat: laut der Infratest Dimap Umfrage für die ARD (“Deutschlandtrend”), erhoben am 4. und 5. August, sind 69 Prozent dafür sich aus dem “Gaza-Konflikt” heraus zu halten, sind also gegen die Entsendung von Bundeswehr, Bundespolizei oder irgendwelcher “Inspektoren” in die aufständische israelische Kolonie Gaza.

Wir haben zwar nur ein paar Tausend Leserinnen und Leser am Tag. Aber tausend, sagte man zu meiner Zeit, sind auch kein Pappenstil. *winke, winke*
