@aral That's exactly what I am afraid of. I watched the flotilla in 2010. Of course, no one was ever punished for the murders. Also, the USA damn cared that one of the dead was their citizen.
It's not just Trump - when it comes to Palestine, also #Germany crashes down on supporters of Palestine. The law to do this and more exists since many years. No one took too much notice, as it was mostly used against #Muslims .
Here the article in the Guardian - saying the same like me:
"This kind of repression isn’t new in Germany. The lawyer Alexander Gorski told me he has handled similar cases where migration law was used against people of Arab or Palestinian descent – often triggered by a social media post, comment or even a “like”.
I'm watching #Germany. And it makes me sad for a lot of reasons. What I regret very much here in the #fediverse is that whenever some nice people talk about their fears for certain groups in Germany if the right wing gets to govern - they name foreigners, queers, jews, sometimes disabled - but you know for whom none has a single thought? Us muslims. And I am afraid most of them would not stand up once mosques get closed, hijabis discriminated, prayers damned, ppl forced to eat in Ramadan. #Islam
Can you stand reading it? I hardly quote numbers anymore, because I know as high as they are they don't show the reality - you cannot count the dead anymore, neither even mourn them properly.
@gee8sh You've got a point with both of your arguments. Sometimes I also feel how useless it is what I'm doing here - but people in Gaza ask us not to stop publishing whatever news get out, even if it is the same every day, more deaths, more suffering, more hunger.
@gee8sh I noticed, I'm not sure if not one reason is that less and less voices out of Gaza can still be heared. I lost a lot of them by closing my Twitter account, trying to follow who I can here, but the silence some days is deafening. This said, please, whoever gets news, post them, I boost what I see.
