There is an easy way to make Pro-Palestinian voices be heard in Germany's public discourse, stop being silent about the atrocities committed by Hamas. It's not like the German public is a big fan of Netanyahu, Settlers or starving Palestinians. But it is very hard to support a group constantly victimizing themselves, while there is video footage showing members of its side celebrating the rape and murder of a woman by parading her naked corpse through the streets.

I didn’t see that footage. If it’s really existing and not just a rumour generated by the Israeli propaganda machine (you know, like the beheaded babies and the mass rape and the playing ball with cut-off breasts shit), I would consider it a proof of the enormous hatred that many Palestinians bear in their hearts for Israeli people.

Israel's leadership is trying to make us believe that this hatred is just part of the Palestinian culture. They try to keep us from empathizing with them.

But human beings are able to commit the most horrific crimes against others and against humanity, we all know that.

The Hamas atrocities and the Israeli narrative of why the atrocities on the October 7 happened of the conflict in general are omnipresent in the German discourse.

The Israeli narrative about the legitimacy of the state of Israel has even become part of our raison d'état.

I think that the German public has a right to learn about the Palestinian narrative of that matter. In fact I am convinced that it is nearer to the historical truth (as I learned from Israeli historians like Avi Shlaim or Ilan Pappé). It’s even nearer to common sense than the Israeli one.

So there seems to be a valid reason why German authorities and you seem so eager to shut up Palestinian voices.

But it’s not right and it proposes and supports Antisemitism.
