Germany is now deporting pro-Palestine EU citizens. This is a chilling new step | Hanno Hauenstein
-
Germany has recently taken a chilling new step, signalling its willingness to use political views as grounds to curb migration. Authorities are now moving to deport foreign nationals for participating in pro-Palestine actions. As I reported this week in the Intercept, four people in Berlin – three EU citizens and one US citizen – are set to be deported over their involvement in demonstrations against Israel’s war on Gaza. None of the four have been convicted of a crime, and yet the authorities are seeking to simply throw them out of the country.
The accusations against them include aggravated breach of the peace and obstruction of a police arrest. Reports from last year suggest that one of the actions they were alleged to have been involved in included breaking into a university building and threatening people with objects that could have been used as potential weapons.
But the deportation orders go further. They cite a broader list of alleged behaviours: chanting slogans such as “Free Gaza” and “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free”, joining road blockades (a tactic frequently used by climate activists), and calling a police officer a “fascist”. Read closely, the real charge appears to be something more basic: protest itself.

Germany has been asleep for way too long. They are deep in migration crisis.
People love comparing German to Nazis, even though it's been 100 years, yet the same people buy all their shit from China, That literally genocides people today.
Yes we have too little people coming here to fix the baby boomer hole. We need more.
Also refugees ≠ imigrants
Also everyone trades with china. Not saying its good. Just saying this isnt a thing anyone is not doing

The good side of history isn't really that of police states built on violence and blood. Germany government is not alone in supporting israel, pretty much every government rooted in authority share the same values.

The Zionist bankers are tightening their grip around the neck of Western Civilization.
What is left of it, anyways.

How can Germany "deport" an EU citizen? Is there any way for them to block an EU citizen from coming back into Germany?
Yeah, that's the craziest thing. EU citizenship means you have freedom to be in any EU country. There is no "deporting" a citizen of the EU if you're a country in the EU.
Yet here we are...

Germans never stopped being nazis. They just laid low until they found a new acceptable target.

It's not unfair to say, given recent events, that Israel has an unusual amount of influence over Western countries.
Nothing antisemitic about it. Israel has the means and capabilities of running influence operations in a way that Palestine doesn't.
"Jewish bankers", however, is a pretty common antisemitic trope so I don't think you're wrong about this specific commenter

How can Germany "deport" an EU citizen? Is there any way for them to block an EU citizen from coming back into Germany?
It can't, the individual states can, and the EU law allowing for this requires showing they're a threat to public safety. The Berlin state government wants to expel some people, so far no other state has made similar moves, and it's very questionable whether Berlin courts will let them do it. And then there's federal courts. And then the ECJ.

Careful, your ignorance is leaking.
