German here. This is 99% sure fake news. German police is only able to even touch kids at that age to take them back to their parents. Kids up to 14 are executively immune from the law. The source is also kind of iffy. The right to protest is also enshrined in German law. As long as they are not violent they can protest all day long.
also german here. the demo i recently went to was cut short by police for no apparent reason.
also many others are being blocked by the cops before they get to happen.
this country is also raiding organizers homes and recently banned a group called "palästina solidarität duisburg" which organized protests as well.
and its all happening in the name of what they call "staatsräson" or some vague ideas of chants like "from the river to the sea, palestine will be free" being antisemitic.
lastly, the idea that cops give a shit abt following the law is ridiculous if u ask me
Iirc this can fall under antisemitism as it impies the wish to "destroy" izzy. I don't agree, but thats why.
Even though you're right about a lot of this, checking news' sources is always important, especially now.
yea, im aware of the bullshit they make up so they can crack down on protests.
doesnt make it true tho.
I'm just explaining how it may be looked at legally.
Germany has a couple of laws about these sort of statements for obvious reasons.
I condemn Izzy's actions.
I wish for Palestine to be internationally recognized and protected.
