I wonder what the hell you have to tell the police in Germany to take someone away for questioning (handcuffed, no less) based on an anonymous accusation. If I understand it correctly they didn't even search his home, at least not thoroughly.
Just telling them he supports not exterminating all Palestinians is probably enough
Antisemitismus!
Also underclasses are bad and we shouldn't run things in a way that makes them.
From the link's comments, someone thought: "The police (no matter the country involved here) went way over the top on this. An anonymous e-mail is nowhere near enough evidence to go arresting/detaining someone without a thorough investigation first. The only possible exceptions being domestic violence, child abuse or a homicide in progress."
