In an exclusive interview with Middle East Eye, Ghassan Abu Sittah, a British-Palestinian doctor who has become known for his work in Gaza, detailed how he was detained at an airport in Germany and subsequently denied entry. Abu Sittah wanted to attend a conference where he would…

Berlin police just canceled the entire Palestine Congress. I was the only speaker that successfully finished a speech.

Salman Abu Sitta was cut off after 1 minute. Our livestream ended and electricity cut off.

This is Germany.

As German police violently shut down a conference on Palestine in Berlin…

Israeli settlers are currently rampaging in the West Bank burning Palestinian villages…

And the Israeli regime genocide in Gaza continues…

The Palestinian people need their allies more than ever.

Just now the German airport security is holding doctor Ghassan Abu Sitta and refusing to allow him to enter the country. He is supposed to speak at the Palestine Congress today in Berlin!

This country is an absolute menace.

As Nancy Fraser spoke to me about her recent cancellation at the University of Cologne, she explained why she considers Germany's unconditional allegiance to Israel to be a betrayal. And why she’s far from repentant about signing open letters in solidarity with Palestine.

Donna Shalala, Guggenheim Fellow, recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, weighs in on the Nancy Fraser debacle at the Uni Köln with strong and principled words.

Thank you everyone for your solidarity. Just in case management at Goldsmiths are hearing the shock and outrage, please sign this open letter:

Die Antilopengang, eine 'linke' Rap-Gruppe, hat einen neuen Song rausgebracht und laut dem sind Palästinenser die Nachfahren der Juden-Vergaser.
