Just fyi, in G*rmany it's neither illegal to show a Palestinian flag nor is criminalized to wear Palestinian clothing (whatever that is).
However, recently public protest has been made the police's business to regulate - making left wing protest quite dangerous and edging the country closer towards a police state. The pigs made it a constraint not to show Hamas/Al Qaeda/Islamic Jihad flags on protests and due to their political/justical illiteracy they might have extended this to Palestinian flags. This is probably where Don Salmon's error might originate.
Yea but the tweet says 'criminal offense' and 'criminalize' which explicitly does refer to stuff regulated by law. So they're claiming display of flag and 'Palestinian clothing' are 'technically' 'illegal', which they totally pulled out of their arse
Not sure if it is illegal in Germany, but laws usually aren't so specific. Where I live we basically made “From river to the sea” illegal, because “it promotes genocide”.
what's a Hamas flag?
Most organizations have flags/symbols, if you're familiar with the Saudi flag its pretty similar. Imo fatah and PFLP have cooler flags
This one, you know, the green one that is the official flag of Hamas
I would guess they are specifically referencing palestinian-designed keffiyeh with that one. Which has been banned in some places, I think Berlin specifically banned them in schools? Not a general ban in public though, at least not yet.
