Anti-Israel groups are planning a “Palestine Congress” in Berlin from April 12th to 14th. Youth organizations from the SPD, Union, FDP and Greens are now calling for a protest against the event planned for mid-April.

The Senate will not ban the event, but is considering a ban on political activity against individuals. The aim of the congress is not to open up space for critical debates about the situation in the Middle East, but rather to propagate sheer hatred against Israel.
