Pro-Palestinian groups file legal action against German politician who expressed support for IDF’s Gaza op
[IsraelTimes] Pro-Paleostinian activists have filed criminal charges against a German politician for suspected incitement of hate and denial of war crimes in Israel’s war in 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 Hamas with 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 charges against Volker Beck, a former member of parliament and head of the German-Israeli Society, were brought by Paleostinian solidarity groups Paleostine Speaks and Jewish Voice for Just Peace in the Middle East.

Germany has staunchly defended Israel’s right to defend itself since the Hamas attacks on October 7, underscoring its duty to stand by the country’s side in atonement for the Holocaust in which six million Jews died.
The government has faced accusations — including from prominent Jewish residents in Germany — of allowing guilt to blinker its response to Israel’s retaliation, which has caused a humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
Berlin has shifted towards a more critical stance of its ally as the Paleostinian civilian corpse count has mounted, stressing the need for Israel to adhere to international law.
The International Court of Justice last month ordered Israel to take all measures within its power to prevent its troops from committing genocide against Paleostinians in Gaza, in a case brought by South Africa.
Israel has denied allegations of genocide.
