  1. Palestinians are a)aggressors, b)genociders.
    Yes, they are victims of the war as well – but the first two points go first.

  2. Just a random doctor huh. Doctors can’t be bad, doctors are good!

    > Dr Abu-Sittah has also eulogised the terrorist Maher Al-Yamani who co-founded the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). According to a report in the Jewish Chronicle, on 1 December 2023, Dr Abu-Sitta spoke at a ceremony in Beirut commemorating the first anniversary of the death of Maher Al-Yamani on 7 April 2019.
    > He is quoted as saying: “This is our only comfort: that even when Maher leaves, the Israelis will be afraid of Maher,”.
    >
    > Some of the atrocities that the PFLP were involved in include: the hijacking of flights in the 1960s, throwing grenades at embassies gunning down passengers at Ben Gurion airport in 1972, suicide bombings in Netanya market, and in the bus station in Petah Tikvah, and the Carmel Market in Tel Aviv, a synagogue massacre in 2014 in Jerusalem in which four worshipers were killed, and the 2019 murder of teenager Rina Shnerb in Israel.

    > The reason for the police to stop Abu Sitta’s video presentation was apparently a blog post by the 87-year-old from January. In it, he wrote that if he had been younger, he could have been one of those who broke the blockade of the Gaza Strip on October 7.

  3. Germany, what the fuck is your problem? Holocaust was 80 years ago. It seems like they still feel accountable for that and do everything to please Israel. Please stop.

  4. OK.He wrote that if he had been younger,he could have been one of October 7 attackers. Why are people surprise,that police shut him down?

  5. Anyone who’s getting riled up over this needs to seriously consider whether they’re actually supporting the promotion of terrorism.

  6. The funny thing is that that terrorism sympathizer afterwards wrote an article about how Europe is “shedding its liberal democracy”. Hamasniks don’t even care if we know they are weaponizing western liberalism for their own benefit.

  7. Trust me, if Germany goes after somebody, there definitely is a reason for it.

  8. I’m honestly disgusted by all those pro-palestinians, who fucking support and befriend literal terrorists, who even SAY they want to kill innocents.

  9. I can’t even read the article because it’s paywalled…

  10. At first I read they barred any doctor who worked in gaza and I had to do a double take. Then I realized I misread. Don’t call this bitch a doctor, he’s a terrorist posing as one.

  11. I don’t get why we don’t rope terrorists in Europe…

  12. Their country their rules. Or do Arabs only think that applies when it’s Qatari sheikhs getting offended by rainbow flags in football stadiums?

  13. It’s time these extremists are booted out of Europe. Hamas and the EU do not hold any common values.

    Good for Germany for doing the right thing and denying this terrorist supporter a platform to spread hate from.

  14. I came into this thread prepared to be utterly shocked by a decision Germany made…

    … but I’ve got to side with them on this.

  15. Am I the only one horrified by these individuals brazen words in public. Same goes for both sides but jeez

  16. The “doctor” in question is a piece of garbage, Germany doesn’t want garbage, sounds fair to me

  17. Amd I can feel the Hasbara strong in this carbonara tonight.

  18. Isreali astroturfing on the r/europe sub? Who would have guessed!

  19. Good. He is a fucking terrorist supporter. Look him up before you start screeching

  20. Germany seems to mean it. No terror supporters allowed to further cause tensions within its borders.

    Good on them.
