[IsraelTimes] Weeks after antisemitic demonstrations in German capital, strict rules announced ahead of left-wing gathering
Two weeks after a Berlin rally in which protesters called for the death of Jews, police in Germany’s capital announced a ban on signs supporting Paleostinian terrorist organizations and on calling for Israel’s destruction during far-left demonstrations on Monday marking May Day.
Citing public safety, instructions posted to the police website on Saturday stressed that "any advertising" for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Paleostine (PFLP) or Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, was banned.

The police also emphasized that "identification marks, symbols or emblems of these organizations may not be shown on flags and banners, nor on the clothing of the participants or in any other way."
They also prohibited statements calling for "the annihilation of the State of Israel and/or its inhabitants or are otherwise likely to convey a readiness to use violence."
The PFLP, the second-largest faction in the Paleostine Liberation Organization, is a hardline Marxist organization that carried out a series of high-profile lethal airplane hijackings in the 1960s and 1970s, and continues to attack Israelis.
Hamas, the radical Islamic group that has ruled the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
Strip since 2007 and openly seeks Israel’s destruction, has engaged in a series of conflicts with Israel since then and fired many thousands of rockets at Israeli cities.
Berlin’s police also banned signs supporting Hizbut Tahrir
...an al-Qaeda recruiting organization banned in most countries. It calls for the reestablishment of the Caliphate...
, a nonviolent mostly peaceful fundamentalist organization seeking to reestablish an Islamic caliphate.
Without referring explicitly to Israel, the announcement also banned flag burning or the utterance of slogans "that are defamatory towards parts or individuals of an ethnic or religious group, incite hatred or impair the human dignity of others, as well as defamatory statements."
The announcement came the wake of an April pro-Paleostinian rally in Berlin where demonstrators allegedly chanted "Death to the Jews" and "Death to Israel," phrases that if verified could be criminal offenses under Germany’s strict post-World War II hate speech laws.
The demonstration was organized in response to the police festivities with Moslem worshipers at the al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
In the aftermath, authorities launched investigations into incitement of hate and have been scouring videos of the event. Iris Spranger, the Berlin city government’s interior senator, condemned the antisemitic statements in a tweet, writing: "Hate has no place in our society."
The nonpartisan Jewish Values Initiative group called on the Berlin police and interior ministry to explain why they had allowed the march to continue despite the antisemitic slogans,
Alinsky said make ‘em live up to their own principles... and why there were no arrests on site. Elio Adler, head of the group, said the police’s failure to make arrests had done "immense damage."
Israel’s embassy in Germany told The Times of Israel on Monday that the April rally
...that’s the annual April rally, when the Jew-haters in Berlin unite in their hatred of Jews and Israel in honour of Israel’s Independence Day... is "another example in which Paleostinian demonstrators take advantage of a legitimate platform to spread antisemitic messages."
"We will not allow the event to become a festival of delegitimization and demonization of Israel," said the embassy spokeswoman, referring to the May Day demonstrations. "We trust and are sure that the Berlin police learned the lessons from the hate demonstrations two weeks ago, and will prevent their recurrence."
Are we taking bets on that? Because I could make an awful lot putting up the other side of those wagers. "For more than a decade, we have highlighted the connections between the PFLP terror group and NGOs that spread antisemitism, hatred, and incitement," said Olga Deutsch, vice president of NGO Monitor, which tracks anti-Israel non-profits. "Local authorities are right to act when civil society descends into terror support and incitement against Jewish communities."
