20240412_zia_p185_009 April 12, 2024, Berlin, Germany: On April 12, 2024, Berlin police intervened to halt the highly controversial ''Palestine Congress'' after a video message from Palestinian activist Salman Abu Sitta was aired. Abu Sitta, who is banned from entering Germany, allegedly expressed in a blog earlier this year that he would have participated in a Hamas attack if he were younger. The congress, slated to run from Friday to Sunday in a Tempelhof commercial complex, started under the motto ''We Accuse.'' Organizers only revealed the venue during a morning press conference. Up to 1,000 participants were expected at the three-day event, which is now drawing significant police attention. Berlin police deployed a large force to monitor the event, with approximately 900 officers on the first day and 2,500 throughout the weekend. The police action included cutting off the power to the venue in the afternoon, leaving the continuation of the congress uncertain. The event has been under scrutiny for potentially fostering antisemitic sentiments. Berlin's Mayor Kai Wegner strongly criticized the congress, emphasizing the city's intolerance for antisemitism and hate speech against Jews. ''It is intolerable that a so-called Palestine Congress is taking place in Berlin.'' The congress has sparked further protests and demonstrations in the city, including a pro-Palestinian activist camp between the Bundestag and the Chancellor's Office, protesting against arms deliveries to Israel in light of the ongoing Gaza conflict. The event has been criticized for its alignment with groups identified as hostile towards Israel, including those advocating for boycotts and other anti-Israel measures. Despite the contentious atmosphere, the congress organizers have accused Israel of apartheid, colonialism, and genocide in Gaza, further exacerbating tensions. The Berlin police detained several individuals. (Credit Image: © Michael Kuenne/PRESSCOV/Zuma Press/Fotoarena Wire)
