„Wir reden von der Frage, ob Verfassungsfeinde legal Waffen besitzen dürfen", so @helgelimburg.bsky.social. "Hier ist viel mehr Eile geboten." Im Juni richtete die IMK eine AG ein, um eine Entwaffnung von AfDlern zu prüfen. Die aber tagte bisher nur ein Mal @joswig.bsky.social taz.de/Entwaffnung-...

Entwaffnung der AfD zieht sich: Bund-Länder-Arbeitsgruppe traf sich nur einmal in 4 Monaten

Die Kommission soll beraten, welche Konsequenzen für AfD-Mitglieder im Staatsdienst oder mit Waffenerlaubnis zu ziehen sind. Die Grünen sind sauer.

Ausstellung in Berlin: Instrumentalisierte Hamas-Opfer

Die Ausstellung über den Hamas-Angriff auf das Nova-Festival in Berlin hat eine klare Agenda. Der Fokus liegt auf dem Leid der israelischen Opfer. Spätere Auswirkungen bleiben dagegen unbeleuchtet.

Der selbe Klasse gegen Klasse-Aktivist hatte die Ausstellung schon vorab bei The Left Berlin (einem antiimperialistischen Blog) verrissen und den Streik beim Magazin The Berliner wegen einer Anzeige für die Ausstellung mitinitiiert. Und führt jetzt seine Kampagne bei ND weiter...

Zur Nova-Ausstellung schickt ND einen langjährigen Kader der trotzkistischen Sekte Klasse gegen Klasse (die sich mit dem "Befreiungskampf" am 7.10. solidarisierte), der sich an den "Hebräisch sprechenden Männern" am Eingang zu stören scheint. Das ist alles andere als seriös.

Even on the day of their release after 2+ years in brutal captivity, supposedly progressive NGOs like Amnesty International & Human Rights Watch fail the hostages once again. Not a word from either so far. Meanwhile, Hamas continues to hold 24 dead hostages captive - a war crime.

Last year, I reported for TAZ about Shirel Golan, a Nova survivor who took her life on her 22nd birthday after battling depression and PTSD following the massacre. Her family accused the Israeli government of not doing enough to help survivors.

Another Nova survivor, Roei Shalev, has taken his life, 2 years after Hamas terrorists murdered his girlfriend in front of him. Many festival attendees are still deeply traumatized by what they experienced. Some 370 were murdered and over 3000 survived.

Unsere Autorin überlebte vor sechs Jahren den rechten Terroranschlag in Halle. Die deutschen Behörden nähmen sie und andere Betroffene nicht ernst 👉 taz.de/!6115485/

Ein Bild von Christina Feist, die in ein Mikrofon spricht. Dazu der Text: „Wer Heilung sucht, braucht Stabilität. Wer erfolgreich Therapie machen will, braucht finanzielle Sicherheit. Die staatlichen Stellen und Behörden gaben mir nichts davon.“ Christina Feist, Überlebende des Anschlags in Halle 2019, empfand die Jahre nach dem Anschlag als traumatisierend und entwürdigend.

Today is a great day that came at far too high a price for both sides. The next challenge will be to completely disarm Hamas. Still, amongst all the tragedy, today is a day of celebration and relief. The hostages could be back by the weekend.

A young woman was arrested at the beginning of the banned demo at Alexanderplatz in Berlin after she got out a flag of the terror organization PFLP, which also took part in the 7.10. attack against Israel. #b0710

Police have currently kettled the demonstrators and are arresting single activists from the crowd, as they continue to glorify the October 7th in chants. Over loudspeakers, police have said that all attendees of the banned demo will be detained. #b0710

Despite a ban, several hundred people, many masked with keffiyehs, chanted "Yallah intifada", "From the river to the sea" and "Glory to the resistance" at a demo at Alexanderplatz in Berlin, which celebrates the 7.10. Hamas-led attack as "heroic". #b0710

On 7.10 in Münster, a coalition of radical-left groups, among them the Varoufakis-affiliated party Mera25 and the sect MLPD, is organizing a demonstration to mark "the collective operation of different Palestinian resistance factions".

Am 7.10. wird in Berlin die Nova Ausstellung eröffnet, die Überlebende des Massakers in Israel konzipiert haben. Ich kann den Besuch allen empfehlen. Die Ausstellung zeigt einem eindringlich, was an diesem Tag auf dem Nova Festival passiert ist - und sie zelebriert Resilienz. Auf das Leben.

To mark 2nd anniversary of the Hamas-led attack against Israel on 7.10., left-wing student, "feminist" and "anarchist" groups are organizing a demo in Berlin with the title "Until total liberation". They speak of a "heroic prison break" and a "courageous uprising". The flyer features a paraglider.

Demo poster for October 7th with the title "Generation after generation: Until total Liberation" in Berlin

Screenshot of demo flyer: "Two years have passed since the people of Gaza stormed the walls of the world's largest open-air prison. Their heroic prison break took the planet by surprise and shook the toundations of the zionist regime-a key pillar of imperialist control in the region-to its core.
On October 7th, the Palestinian resistance proved to the world that defeating
I the "almighty" Zionist entity is
Pthey Seized ethe demonstrated that ail Western
it. They demonstrated that all Western
imperial backing, all advanced weaponry, stands useless before the unbreakable will of a people fighting for liberation. Their courageous uprising smashed the myth of Zionist invincibility and became a beacon of revolutionary hope for all anti-imperialist and anti-colonial struggles everywhere in this world.The genocidal Zionist colonial project-and the heroic Palestinian resistance did not begin on October /th. This day was not an isolated event, but a justified and inevitable rupture against decades of colonial terror, siege, and ethnic cleansing. The struggle continues: the ongoing, heroic night for justice, freedom, resistance continue o defend their lan and le tight to exist against the occupation's genocidal war machine and its imperial sponsors.
We do not apologize for their resistance; their Resistance is our hope. It is our promise. Generation after generation. Until total liberation. Let us flood the streets of Berlin on October 7th!
Join our
rally on October 7th, at 6 PM,
Alexanderplatz (Weltzeituhr)."

One of the main people pushing the campaign doesn't seem to even write for The Berliner anymore. He's better known as a long-standing member of the anti-Zionist Trotskyist sect Klasse gegen Klasse, which declared solidarity on 7.10. with the "liberation struggle" of Hamas.
