A pro-Palestine Jewish activist group has had its bank account frozen in Germany for the second time in seven years, after the bank requested a full list of its members’ details in what experts believe is a breach of German law. The group suspects the move was triggered by its involvement in a forthcoming pro-Palestine conference that has attracted intense scorn from the German mainstream.
Germany was cursed to not once be correct about things pertaining to jewish people and genocides.

Nice… media that openly cheered for Hamas attacks is telling lies again and like the good little sheep most are nowadays people blindly believe it in rant about imaginary German nazis. The brain-rot induced by social media combined with a complete lack of media literacy gets more impressive every day.
“Germany” = a German bank
“seizing money” = temporarily frozen bank account until a legal dispute is settled“seizing money” = temporarily frozen bank account until a legal dispute is settled
I didn’t find this term in the text (ctrl+f). Why do you have it in quotes?
Apart from that nowadays if a bank freezes a person’s account, it’s really hard to live/survive in many places in this world and Germany is one of them. Unless you use crypto, and not everybody does.
“Germany” = a German bank
Banks often freeze accounts in order to follow governmental policies, often of protesters. Meaning, one way or another this move is backed by the government.

It’s right there in the headline

Oh the title. I read the article after a sneak-pick at the comment section and yours made me wonder to the point I did the ctr+f thingy.
Well, the title has a quite different quote and that’s what makes all the difference due to the historic reference. I think if you don’t like the title, you should hate the article because of what it is describing in relation to what is happening in Germany to Jewish people, and not about how this
articletitle is written.Do you deny that Jewish people suffer again on German ground, due to German policies using the argument of defending zionism?
Do you deny that zionism is historically related to fascism?[edit: oops I thought I was replying to @Tarte and not @rimjob_rainer. Well the questions are for both of you or anyone who cares to answer them. Just to note that suffering is a spectrum. I am not claiming that Genocide is happening again in Germany, but people being targeted to the point of having their bank accounts frozen is a punitive measure to make people suffer]
I only wanted to point out that it’s written in the headline. I have no opinion for myself because the topic is too complex and convoluted and I don’t know enough to take part in the discussion. I don’t deny anything you’ve written but I also can’t confirm.
Founded in 2007, Jüdische Stimme is a group of anti-Zionist Jews in Germany that primarily organises pro-Palestine protests, becoming increasingly prominent and expanding its ranks significantly since 7 October.
The bank demanded a list of the names of all of the members of Jüdische Stimme and their addresses, signed by members of the board by April 5 before adding that they were freezing the account immediately “as a precautionary measure.”
Multiple legal experts who spoke to Novara Media believe that the request for members’ data is unlawful in at least two ways: a breach of their contract with the bank, to which they had not consented to give this information, and EU privacy law, specifically general data protection regulation (GDPR).
Many of the group’s members have been arrested at protests, as part of a wider crackdown on pro-Palestinian activism which has included outright blanket bans on demonstrations, the designation of “from the river to the sea” as outright illegal (in some states under the same law which criminalises displays of the swastika), a ban on wearing Palestinian keffiyehs in Berlin schools. Many of the group are middle-aged or elderly Israelis.
Germany of all should know a genocide when it is happening. Watching this all unfold is maddening. It doesn’t matter what happened. Oblitering a city off the map and leaving an entire people without a nation is not an acceptable retaliation in our current world and time. Don’t anybody come back with “if someone nukes you… if someone kills your mom…” This is death on a biblical scale, this is what brought Europe together in the 1940s. It doesn’t matter if the death camp’s walls are Palestine’s borders. They are not going to survive without intervention.
Germany of all should know a genocide when it is happening.
Oh they know. The problem is west germany just never went through denazification
Fully 77 percent of senior ministry officials in 1957 were former members of Adolf Hitler’s Nazi party, a higher proportion even than during the 1933-45 Third Reich, the study found.
Zionism is just the new form. Same goals (getting Jews out of Europe, and imperialism and colonialism; this time in the middle east instead), and similar methods (weaponizing and exacerbating antisemitism). No wonder then that nazis and zionists worked together.
The Nazi spirit in Germany never went away, hence why they’re both pro-Zionist (who are the modern age Nazis) and anti-Semite.
Shittiest take of the year! Congrats!
