Exclusive: EU Commission still seeking controversial police agreement with Israel, despite warnings

(July 30, 2026)

Documents obtained by Statewatch through transparency requests show that Europol nevertheless hosted Israeli delegations—including representatives of the Israeli National Police—on at least four occasions between August 2024 and March 2026. The meetings, involving several departments within the agency, were facilitated by Israel’s liaison officer at Europol and culminated in a visit by Israel’s ambassador to the Netherlands to the agency’s headquarters in March 2026.

Nach dem CSD-Anschlag: Polizei findet Bekennervideo auf Handy von Abdul B.

Nach dem Anschlag am Rande des Christopher Street Days (CSD) in Berlin haben Ermittler auf dem Handy des mutmaßlichen TĂ€ters Abdul B. ein Bekennervideo gefunden. Eine Sprecherin der Bundesanwaltschaft bestĂ€tigte einen entsprechenden Bericht der „Bild“. Das Video zeige demnach unter anderem einen Treueschwur auf die Terrororganisation Islamischer Staat (IS).

Ob es sich bei der Person in dem Video sicher um Abdul B. handelt, blieb zunĂ€chst offen. Nach Informationen des „Spiegel“ ist der Mann auf dem Video verhĂŒllt, es soll sich aber mutmaßlich um Abdul B. handeln.

(…)

Abdul B. wurde am Sonntag bei einem Polizeieinsatz erschossen.

Schwarz-GrĂŒn will dich beim Autofahren filmen

(July 24, 2026)

Die schwarz-grĂŒne Regierungskoalition von Schleswig-Holstein treibt gerade ein Polizeigesetz durch den Landtag, das massive neue Befugnisse mit sich bringt: automatisierte Datenanalyse nach Palantir-Art sowie VideoĂŒberwachung, die selbststĂ€ndig Gesichter erkennt, Verhalten bewertet und Menschen ĂŒber das Kameranetzwerk verfolgt. Gerade wartet der Innenausschuss des Landtages auf die schriftlichen Stellungnahmen von Expert*innen dazu.

Die Regierungskoalition nutzte die Zeit, um das Polizeigesetz noch einmal deutlich zu verschĂ€rfen. Mit einem Änderungsantrag will sie dem Gesetz weitere Befugnisse hinzufĂŒgen.

Demnach soll die Polizei von Schleswig-Holstein kĂŒnftig in fahrende Autos filmen dĂŒrfen. Dabei soll Videoauswertungssoftware zum Einsatz kommen, die automatisch detektiert, ob die Autofahrenden elektronische GerĂ€te in der Hand halten.

‘Destroy Gaza including kidnapped soldiers’ – leaked clip again proves Israel’s Hannibal Directive

(June 29, 2026)

The clip was shot very early on the morning of the raid. We know this because Israeli forces conducted ‘Hannibal Directive attacks’ on its own people, on average around three times an hour, from just after 6am that day until after 9pm. The Hannibal order was clarified as “kill anything that moves” – hundreds of Israelis were killed, including most of those slain at the ‘Nova’ music festival.

Israeli media admit this. Israeli military figures have admitted killing an “immense” number of their own people. Israel’s then-defence minister, wanted war criminal Yo’av Gallant, admitted it – and said he wished it had been used more. Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu allegedly even tried to have one specific captured soldier killed before his release from Gaza to prevent a ceasefire.

UK politicians and media continue to keep silent about it – and even attack those who expose it.

Geleaktes Video belegt: Israel hat in Gaza die Hannibal-Direktive ausgerufen

(July 17, 2026)

Dieser Artikel ist eine erweiterte Neuauflage eines Artikels zur Hannibal-Direktive, der 2024 auf den NachDenkSeiten erschienen ist.

Das Video wurde offenbar in den Morgenstunden im israelischen Polizei-Kommandozentrum in Jerusalem aufgenommen. Zu sehen ist ein GesprĂ€ch zwischen dem damaligen israelischen Polizeichef Kobi Shabtai und anderen hochrangigen Vertretern von Polizei und MilitĂ€r. Dort fĂ€llt der entscheidende Satz. „Nein in Gaza. Zerstört alles. Zusammen mit den entfĂŒhrten Soldaten.“ Kurze Zeit spĂ€ter betritt der damalige Minister fĂŒr Öffentliche Sicherheit, Itamar Ben-Gvir, den Raum und unterbindet das weitere Filmen.

Einer Demokratie unwĂŒrdig

Die Bundesregierung will BKA und Bundespolizei zudem bald weitere, extrem invasive Maßnahmen der automatisierten Überwachung erlauben: Eine Internetsuchmaschine fĂŒr Stimmen und Gesichter und eine Megadatenbank mit KI-gestĂŒtzter Analyse, wie sie auch Palantir im Angebot hat. Entsprechende Befugnisse fĂŒr BND und Verfassungsschutz finden sich ebenfalls im Entwurf des Geheimdienstgesetzes.

Zusammengedacht ergibt das ein System, das vollautomatisiert kontrolliert, was Menschen in der Öffentlichkeit tun, sie bei unerwĂŒnschtem Verhalten identifiziert und dann gleich auch noch recherchiert, wo sie sich bewegen und mit wem sie bekannt sind.

Newark Mayor Ras Baraka orders mandatory curfew for protestors near Delaney Hall

Gov. Mikie Sherrill said she sent in state police to bring order outside Delaney Hall, taking control of the area over from ICE agents.

„It has grown unsafe, and that‘s completely unacceptable,“ the Democratic governor said at a news conference announcing the new measures. „We need to take this opportunity to lower the temperature.“

As police erected protest barriers, ICE agents who had formed an line in front of protesters moved inside the building‘s perimeter fence.

Kritische Positionen kommen vor, aber werden nicht zum Anlass der Berichterstattung. Was sich da im Diskurs zeigt, nennen wir eine Purifizierung, eine rituelle LĂ€uterung also, durch die bisherige zentrale Kritiken an Formen der VideoĂŒberwachung direkt adressiert und gleichzeitig abgestreift werden. Die Purifizierung erhöht die Durchsetzbarkeit der Maßnahme, weil die Bewegungsmusteranalyse jetzt als sozusagen gute Überwachung erscheint.

King Charles Breaks His Silence After Ex-Prince Andrew’s Arrest

In a statement issued from Buckingham Palace on Thursday, King Charles said: „I have learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and suspicion of misconduct in public office. What now follows is the full, fair and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner and by the appropriate authorities.

„In this, as I have said before, they have our full and wholehearted support and co-operation. Let me state clearly: the law must take its course. As this process continues, it would not be right for me to comment further on this matter. Meanwhile, my family and I will continue in our duty and service to you all,“ he continued.

HRCP report calls for high-level judicial inquiry into deaths resulting from CCD operations

Lahore, 17 February 2026. A fact-finding report released by the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) has concluded that the Crime Control Department (CCD) in Punjab has adopted a deliberate policy of staged encounters—in many cases resulting in extrajudicial killings—that fundamentally undermines the rule of law and constitutional protections in the province.

Based on reports in the press, HRCP has documented at least 670 CCD-led encounters over the course of eight months in 2025, resulting in the deaths of 924 suspects, with only two police officers killed during the same period. The extreme casualty imbalance—averaging more than two fatal encounters daily—combined with the uniformity of operational patterns across districts, indicates an institutionalized practice rather than isolated incidents of misconduct. The fact-finding mission has therefore called for an urgent high-level judicial inquiry into these deaths.

Pakistan’s Punjab police kill 900 people in eight months: What’s going on?

“They broke into our house in Bahawalpur and took everything we owned,” Zubaida told a fact-finding mission from Pakistan’s foremost rights group, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP).

“We followed them to Lahore and begged for our sons’ release. The next morning, five of them were dead,” she added.

When she later filed a legal petition, Zubaida says police threatened to kill whoever remained in her family if she did not withdraw it.

Her husband, Abdul Jabbar, insists his sons had no criminal records. “They were working men, married with children,” he said.

Israeli Police Question Top Netanyahu Aide Over Leaked Document Case

(January 11, 2026)

In November 2024, the Israeli courts lifted a gag order and identified Mr. Feldstein, who was working as a military affairs spokesman for Mr. Netanyahu, as one of the suspects in the case involving the stealing, illegal holding and leaking of a classified military document to a German newspaper, Bild.

Handwritten in Arabic, the document, obtained from Gaza, appeared to lay out Hamas’s plan for psychological warfare against Israel, claiming that Hamas was in no rush to reach a deal to release hostages or to end the war. Some of the messaging aligned with Mr. Netanyahu’s own approach.

Critics said the Bild article based on the leak appeared to be part of a deliberate effort by the prime minister or his loyalists to weaken the domestic campaign for the hostages’ release and influence Israeli public opinion in favor of Mr. Netanyahu’s negotiating positions.

The Infiltrator and the Movement

(April 23, 2014)

Modern political policing began in Britain in the 1880s, with the establishment of the Metropolitan Police’s Special Branch, the cocoon from which sprung the undercover policing operations decades later. The Branch originally aimed to combat Irish Fenians — armed fighters seeking independence from Britain — but soon expanded to keep tabs on foreign anarchists, suffragettes, and anticolonial Indians.

At the end of the 1800s, an undercover Branch officer infiltrated the Legitimation League — which campaigned to de-stigmatize bastard children — and orchestrated the League’s collapse. This operation set the tone for what was to come: intense, deeply personal infiltration of any political group that challenged the status quo.

(…)

From British Fascisti to the English Defence League, the UK’s security services have routinely refused to consider far-right groups subversive. Indeed, there is evidence, both here, in Europe, and across the Atlantic, of longstanding collaboration between elements of the security services and the far right.

Wie prognostiziert: Israel will deutsche „Inspektoren“ in Gaza und droht anderenfalls mit neuem Massaker

(August 7, 2014)

Heute Nacht nun – Todesstatistik: ĂŒber 1800 ermordete PalĂ€stinenser – veröffentlichte die Springer AG ĂŒber eine kostenpflichtige Online-Ausgabe von „Bild“ ein Interview mit dem faschistischen Außenminister Israels Avigdor Lieberman. Aus der Mannschaft der ĂŒblichen VerdĂ€chtigen nahm dann der „Focus“ den Ball auf und zitierte Lieberman, in seinem von uns exakt voraus gesagten maximalen Zynismus:

„Die Deutschen als politische FĂŒhrungsnation in Europa mĂŒssen eine ganz entscheidende Rolle im Gaza-Konflikt einnehmen. Deutschland muss die Regierung der EU an einen Tisch bringen und eine Lösung entwickeln, um die wirtschaftliche und humanitĂ€re Katastrophe in Gaza abzuwenden.“

Die Botschaft des sicherlich proasiatischen ex-TĂŒrstehers aus Moldawien Lieberman ist klar: „Gebt uns Soldaten, ihr Deutschen, ihr FĂŒhrer des Imperiums ĂŒber den Kontinent, sonst bringen wir weiter PalĂ€stinenser um und ihr seid Schuld! Ihr seid schuld! Wie immer!“

Wie berichtet, war die Fußmatte Israels, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, schon in den letzten Tagen voran gekrochen und hatte sich seinen Lieblingsfaschisten lang hin auf den Weg gelegt. Am 3. August versprach der Außenminister von Deutschland in der Springer AG seinen Herrn und Meistern die „Herrschaft der Hamas“ in ihrer Kolonie Gaza zu brechen und redete diesbezĂŒglich von einer „Reaktivierung“ des seit 2005 aktiven und erst kĂŒrzlich von der „EuropĂ€ischen Kommission“ bis 2015 verlĂ€ngerten Mandats der Polizeimission E.U.B.A.M.

In seiner ganzen brĂ€sigen Robotortour von uns mal wieder kalt erwischt, faselte Steinmeiers AuswĂ€rtiges Amt dann gestern etwas von einer Entsendung „unbewaffneter“ (!) deutscher Polizisten nach Gaza, offensichtlich um ein Bundestagsmandat zu umgehen.

Six people accused of organizing Defend Our Juries meetings were arrested hours before a scheduled news conference on Tuesday and charged with encouraging support for Palestine Action, an offense for which those found guilty can be sentenced to up to 14 years in prison.

When the rescheduled news conference took place without them on Wednesday, Defend Our Juries supporters accused the British government and the police of attacking free speech and the right to protest.

Adalah: Police’s Failure to Investigate Attempted Lynch of MK Odeh

Upon MK Odeh’s arrival, dozens of rioters attacked his car and shouted racist slogans such as “Death to Arabs.” When MK Odeh spoke at the protest, he was attacked again, together with the other demonstrators, as various objects were thrown at them. Following his speech, MK Odeh managed to reach his car, while rioters armed with stones and sticks tried to attack him. At one point, the rioters hurled a large stone that shattered the vehicle’s rear windshield. After these events, the police arrested only three people: one of whom was a demonstrator who had been attacked by the rioters; he was released shortly thereafter at the police station. The court later released the two other individuals who were arrested and detained.

Following these events, right-wing activists uploaded dozens of posts and videos on social media platforms praising, sympathizing and encouraging these assaults; some even explicitly called for repeating such acts in the future.
