In a decision that challenges Germany’s stringent restrictions on pro-Palestinian activism, the Higher Administrative Court in Münster ruled on Monday that denying ‘Israel’s’ right to exist is not inherently criminal and falls under protected freedom of expression.
The ruling overturned a Düsseldorf police ban on a planned pro-Palestinian demonstration, allowing protesters to voice critical views on ‘Israel’s’ founding.
The case stemmed from a protest organized for last Saturday in Düsseldorf, which police had prohibited based on concerns that participants would use slogans rejecting ‘Israel’s’ existence.
Extremely rare positive sign from Germany, but barely.
i was going to say something along these lines and i hope this ember grows into full fire.
