55 minutes of pure hatred once morest Israel – in the middle of Berlin! More than 200 demonstrators gathered Sunday evening at Potsdamer Platz in the center of the capital, waving Palestinian flags.
“We’re tired of the talk of being peaceful, we’re going to launch rockets,” yelled one of the participants. Others applauded enthusiastically, repeating the slogan.
Speakers on stage celebrated terrorist groups such as “Islamic Jihad”, the Qassam Brigades and Hamas. The police did NOT intervene.
Palestinians also took to the streets in Stuttgart, and around 80 people took part to the sounds of Arabic music. A police spokesman for BILD/BZ: “We pay attention to the potential danger of such elevators. But the demo today was very calm.”
A man with an AfD logo, an anti-vaccination plaque and a Russian flag mingled with the demonstrators.
Background: In the past few days, Palestinian extremists had fired hundreds of rockets at Israel. Two top Islamist terrorists were killed in Israeli attacks.
