5:45 pm
in general, it is one of, of it is actually the 2nd biggest donor in terms of aid in the world. and we've seen now since how mazda is attack against israel and the bombings happening and gaza, it has announced that it will increase its humanitarian aid towards the palestinian civilians by $50000000.00 euros. and you know, we've also seen on the other hand, again, germany is walking a fine line. it also doesn't want this aid to in any way, ends up in the wrong hands. that's why it has started a review of all, it's 8 contributions to the palestinian civilians. to make sure that this aid is ending up in the hands of the civilians and not for example, eating how mos in any way because it would be really bad for germany to to, to see that happen. stay with us on the line german advocacy. i'd like to transition from the political move in the country to the society mode because israel is,
5:46 pm
will become also settled deep divisions amongst people. one sees this in the many kinds of demonstrations that i have to change the across the country shows more on what those look like and above all, what people participate in giving them feedback. so they want to hear the comb or voices protest against violence. want to appeal to the german government to work to stop the bombing of gaza. the organizers of this demonstration distance themselves from the homeless attack is very bad. what happens here, and it's a terrorist attack that can't be excused. at the same time, revenge does not bring anything. we want to stand up for this message of peace that she calls that revenge. but international law allows israel to defend itself, as long as it doesn't deliberately kill civilians. many demonstrations in germany have been banned by police and recent days because of repeated anti semitic statements or criminal acts. this demonstration is only allowed under certain
5:47 pm
conditions. they include, in this case, no palestinian scarves or not. okay. yeah. but again, it was, you wasn't escalating anything that was actually fine, but i just wanted to do this, but you did get everyone. this is a piece of the symbol, but we know what, at this demo, symbols, flags, and slogans are banned. what some people chan controversial slogans. anyway. the to be here because awesome. it doesn't just mean freedom from occupation, but some use it to deny israel's right to exist. joanna, how soon understands the people's anger, the german palestinian works on integration projects goes into schools and offers talks with students who and her view are often taught a one sided anti is really view at home. people come in mid that they get that and
5:48 pm
quotes their palestinian brother to choose from our permanently oppressed has been oppressed for 75 years. for example, they mostly don't see that there are also other initiatives that there are also is really piece dialogue that there are is really people who are also working for peace and for state that is for an equal state that's not communicated to them. so clearly, but the only thing they see is the, is really military, which in part kills innocent civilians, tired of by the way. the anger is not only felt among palestinians, other arabs, other muslims suit themselves is also being affected. and many see israel responsible for the violence not come off with its terrorist attack in early october. in the, on the homes. what is happening in gaza has nothing to do with her mom. but with is really a tax under a far right government. the human in recent years,
5:49 pm
there have been many provocations you called at the fox. a mosque was many arrests, the killings of palestinians. so the reaction could be considered norma. you might help me in my head lucky i was going to be a yes, i should be my new year because my heart is breaking or just i am very angry and very sad and very disappointed by people all over the world. all the politicians, organizations, humanitarian organizations. i am here so that i can protest against israel the that . yeah, there are internationally recognized protected areas for palestinians who sleep outside of them. their status is unclear even in germany. many suffer as a result, says joanna, how soon the conference got as it did to take they couldn't really build their identity here at all. and basically their thoughts with their identity got stuck in lebanon, months of about maybe some, even in palestine policy,
5:50 pm
not even though they have never even been to palestine. even the parents haven't been to palestine just of all i've seen. and that was also a phenomenon of the politics, which just didn't see that you have to give people who have lived here for 13141520 years that you have to give them a perspective. they feel um, seeing on heard frustrated that their flags and symbols have been banned at some demonstrations. i think many, maybe you don't quite see if you're now one piece and also see both sides. there are also enough examples of the peaceful coexistence between jews, palestinians, peace activists on the ground in israel and palestine. with the war reverberating around the world, the angriest voices in berlin seemed a loudest. calmer voices calling for peace, or hoping they will be heard soon. julia so dearly
5:51 pm
a particular correspondence is standing by julia. these protest we're seeing a happening in a country which acknowledges its historical responsibility for the model. 6000000 jews by the nazi regime in world war 2. how has that shaped germany over the decades? so this is something that has really impacted the collective conscience of germany and germans does something that has influence, not only politics, as we've seen, looking at how germany positions itself today, but also german society debates about how germany should deal with its responsibility after the atrocities committed by nazi germany against the jews is something that is debated in schools in families in other parts of civil society. and as we've seen, it has brought to israel security being considered reason of state the fundamental principle. but it also has brought to
5:52 pm
a lot of support for israel within german society. a recent pull that we've seen carried out after the october 7 attacks shows that 70 percent of germans believe israel does have a right to militarily defend itself against how mosse after those attacks. so those are all of that julia h or shape germany's understanding of what counts as anti semitism as well. i would say that germans and german institutions are keenly aware of what counts as anti semitic of the german government. the german states has implemented a clear definition of what it considers anti semitic and the states that anti semitism is any hatred directed towards the jewish individuals, their property, but also jewish communities and institutions. and that the state of israel as a jewish collective also can be the target of, of his hatred and anti semitism. that would mean that, for example,
5:53 pm
any behavior or statement that denies the right to exist of the state of israel would count as anti semitic. and this is something that is not necessarily seen this way in many countries around the world where the perception is different, but something like this would clearly count as anti semitic. and germany can you give us some concrete examples? julia, what would rate as anti semitism in germany as well. clearly any direct insults or attacks that go against the jewish person because of their religion and also jewish communities. but also if you look, let at, for example, uh, installs or hatred level towards the state of israel. there are slogans that are heard across the world often that pro palestinian demonstrations. we've heard that also in the report tense of a free palestine, but also a well known chant from the river to the sea. palestine will be free. these can in
5:54 pm
germany be considered anti semitic, and i'll explain why this is because from the river to the sea means the idea that there should be a palestinian state that goes from the jordan river to the mediterranean, which is where israel also is. and this implies that for a palestinian state to exist, it would mean a getting rid of the state of israel and removing jews from there. and that is considered anti semitic in, in, in germany because again, it denies israel right to exist. it does that explain why, but lynn, for example, has placed restrictions on pro palestinian protests, but none on pro. is there any demonstrations? so this doesn't part explain that. we know that generally germany is considered a pretty liberal when it comes to granting the right to protest. but in this case, we've seen the police, especially in berlin, acting in quite a strict way in
5:55 pm
a strict interpretation of the law. because they say there have been indications that previous pro palestinian protests, but also at some of the ones that occurred in the early days of the current conflict. where there have been statements or behaviors that have been considered anti semitic. and the police says they cannot guarantee that these episodes will not take place again at a protest that will take place now. and since they can't prevent this, they say we're going to stop the protest from happening at all. now this obviously causes some concern and some frustration for people who just want to go out and show for example, solidarity with the civilians and gaza or protests. some of the policies of the is really government, but they are basically not allowed to take part in these protests because of all that is happening. and all of this is decisions taken by the german police to the stop these protests. so does all of this, the 3 of this cause told is essentially translate to unconditional support for ease
5:56 pm
of al, to from germany as well. i would say germany is clearly strongly position that the side of israel, it is a state that a germany will support and it is something that they really stand by the german government and the german people. but we should also keep in mind that the german government stands by the need for a 2 state solution and is rarely state in a palestinian state following the borders decided by the un resolution in 1967. and we said hard to say that the german government has often been critical of policies of buying a ton. y'all was governments in israel, for example. the promotion of settlements in the west bank has criticize this openly and strongly. but certainly we can say that israel and germany are a strong partners in that israel can count on germany, being one of his strongest partners in the world were leave with the thanks so much
