Memorial in Berlin Moabit on the anniversary of the November progrome

Memorial in Berlin Moabit on the anniversary of the November progrome

Several hundred people, mainly from the left spectrum, took part in a memorial rally on 09.11.2019 followed by a demonstration.

The place of the rally was the memorial at the former synagogue in the Levetzowstraße in Berlin Moabit. From there a demonstration started to the Westhafen S-Bahn station, where 71 years ago Jews were deported to concentration camps.

At the memorial in Levetzostraße, people laid roses and lit candles. The same applies to the memorial for the deportations at the Westhafen S-Bahn station. In the past, this was repeatedly damaged by anti-Semitic smearing.

Hundreds of people in Berlin take part in the annual Al-Quds march through the West Berlin city centre.

The core of the demonstration's demands is the destruction and, until then, the boycott of Israel.

As an alibi against accusations of anti-Semitism, members of the Jewish splinter group Neturei Karta, who reject the state of Israel on religious grounds, are taking part again this year. The right-wing extremist Uwe Meenen (NPD) takes part in the opening rally.

This year, apparently under pressure from the public discussion, the organizer is paying even more attention than usual to compliance with police requirements. According to the organizer, the police are now threatening to break up the demonstration if Israel continues to be called a "child murderer" in chants.

During the march, participants show the flags of Iran, Yemen and the regime in Syria.

On the fringes of the march there are smaller protest rallies and word battles with pro-Israeli activists. Strong police presence separates the opponents.
