From the "anti-German" farce to grand opera. The paralysis of criticism: a society without opposition From the "anti-German" farce to grand opera
The paralysis of criticism: a society without opposition careers do sometimes easy: Just now in the mobile phone salesman town succeeded Paul Potts Britain's Got Talent, thanks to the rise of world-famous opera star. Similarly fared - but without any talent-free - Hamburger "anti-German" neocon critique group to maximize the blockade of its war propaganda event by anti-imperialists and other leftists. Suddenly, the action was shot once through the neo-liberal media deficiency. The result was an "anti-Semitic riot" with many "Nazis," Jewish and other "victims", a super-scandal - since an "anti-German" alliance against Hamburger unreasonable (BGHU) for 13 December to protest against "leftist anti-Semitic thugs" calls - internationally and provides to the tip policy for all sorts of outrage.
What happened About 30 activists of the International Centre B5 in Hamburg-St. Pauli On 25 October 2009 a meeting of the "anti-German" group criticism maximize the neighboring B-movie cinema prevented, under which the film "Why Israel" should be the French director Claude Lanzmann are shown. But they had the entrance to the courtyard, the closest the cinema, closed with a chain and covered with a banner on which was depicted the segregation wall in the West Bank. Before that had posted four young men, equipped with wooden rifles and disguises worn camouflage smocks, the crew would represent an Israeli checkpoints in order to remember the reality of life for Palestinians in the occupied territories. The've Lanzmann In his film "Lost," it said in a leaflet distributed on site.
This scenario looked at the movie-goers - a more or less closed group of "anti-German" - opposite. The widely on the Internet legend however wants that she had expected before the B-Movie you to ready extreme leftist thugs. Armed with "Quartz gloves and wooden sticks" (Rheinische Post), belts and other "weapons" to the B5-activists "anti-Germans" beaten with fists and are prevented from entering the cinema.
"anti-German" want to state security a Like the anti-German group said Hamburg was at 25.10. called the police from their ranks. This, however, remained passive and only watched the scene - apparently saw no reason to intervene. The "anti-Germans" of the alleged "whipping action" (BAK Shalom) has not taken place. There was Rempelein, shove our knowledge, attempted to land and four slaps, as the "anti-Germans" a breakthrough. Meanwhile, witnesses reported that it was not only from the anti-imperialists came to the above assault, but also by the men in the media as a dirt performing "anti-German" Rights. They should have used pepper spray against the activists of the B5.
At least one member of the "anti-German" camp has, according to the anti-German group Hamburg one of the cinema-blockers for an alleged brawl had taken place days later at another location, to the police - determined the state protection. Media reports based on police records confirm this but you are silent about who started the "fight".
The "anti-German" informant is lying to investigators have told the same price range as the "anti-German" ultras in the Bahamas Journal - A flagship of the scene - and other neo-cons along with their fan base from the Rote Flora, and the blue-white Web 2.0 Antifa about the events at 25.10. have anti-imperialists should be "Jewish swine" and "fags" called out to be disclosed. Now only serious missing-sounding statements that the now overused defamation stitch of "anti-Germans" to success help. After it became known fact that at 25.10. before B5 deployed police officers' anti-Semitic bullying "can not confirm or display of witnesses were reimbursed, identify the alleged perpetrators and their statements, if necessary under repeat the oath, could the perpetrators of the dirty campaign is only a last straw, "Lennart K.
.
"Lennart K." Against the backdrop of the North ("anti") German farmer's theater, which extends to grand opera since its premiere on an international stage like it to calm down one or the other: At least "Lennart K. "(According to Spiegel Online" eyewitness "who wants to hear how" Jewish pig "was called) is not a phantom of the" anti-German "opera - it really does exist. He is one of the countless pop "anti-German", the feel comfortable in the Rote Flora like maggots in bacon. No wonder: Prohibition signs on the Flora-month program with strikethrough "Palestinian scarf" and crossed dove make it clear: Arabs and war opponents are in the Event Center of the medium-sized hamburger youth undesirable. More comfortable to feel the "anti-Germans", however, the Web 2.0. There they make - and so does "Lennart K." - Photos of the Israeli army memorabilia alongside photographs of their Nike shoes, her friend, the Israeli national flag and sausage rolls out.
far So - so banal. Busybodies like "Lennart K.", always wanted to like the times in the newspaper, were here and elsewhere do not mention it, if they were not phenotype of a newly-right base Tableware: Meanwhile, driving hordes of young (anti-) German under pseudonyms such as bullying, "Moshe Dayan" in the Sudel corners of the Web 2.0 around declared enemies (as critics of capitalism or peace politicians) with permanent defamation and other life-stalking. But above all they do in forums that operate under the name, ironically, under labels such as Anti-Defamation, preferably one: they let their Islamophobia and xenophobia free insult run and Palestinians or others who are suspected to originate from the Arab cultural area, either as green plague ", "Islamo-Nazis" or "Musel. "Lennart K." called Muslims who protested against the war in Gaza, "Fascist Madness". And one of his political friends the mass deaths of Palestinians and destroying their livelihoods cheered cynical: "Hamastan burned down" The "anti-German" Web 2.0 is not just a playground for slanderers, liars and psychopaths - there ferment racism and homophobia.
"The fight Global-Peace-Mob" - The Alliance against Hamburger unreasonableness as dropout program But why should political proximity to the unsavory "Lennart K." types a frighteningly large part of the (ex-) Left still be embarrassed? Organizations such as the FAU or the Berlin VVN BdA have left all the disgust and shame borders march behind him and - as well as representatives of Jewish communities, academics, artists and other citizens who are descended into the "anti-German" ichor pool because they reflexively all blind to sign out "against anti-Semitism," it says - side by side with the alliance against Hamburger unreasonable.
unreasonable Here at last, that the organizers, including their spokesman Andreas Benl, authors of the journal Bahamas - a voice of the pipe new rights. An alliance with the Bahamas is a welcome program for people to Palestine deserters and other leftists who want to turn in the road to victory for the neocon camp.
Bahamas spread - of course on behalf of Israel and the Holocaust victims - open, what in the Rote Flora can now speak only off the record: resentment against the "multicultural fuss" against immigrants in general and Muslims in particular and enthusiasm for the "reasonable objection" of the French right-wing extremist Jean-Marie Le Pen "against the unstoppable Islamization" (Bahamas). Only logical that the central organ of the "Anti-Deutschen" has sung with the boy freedom, then cheering on the Italian arias racist Oriana Fallaci ("Muslims breed like rats") and their destruction fantasies.
not stand a few supporters of the Bahamas BGHU editorial in nothing. For example, the pro-Zionist left Frankfurt: "Fighting the Global-Peace-Mob," The Internet portal Liza's world, an expert on character assassination campaigns against the Jewish-Israeli left. The Morgenthau Group, which railed against "anti-racist taboos" and "climate talk" and for "military intervention" in defense of Western civilization in the Hindu Kush and across campaigns. Last but not least, the anti-German Hamburg group who commit to not even ashamed, public sentiment against Barack Obama's half-hearted efforts towards peace, and yearns for the return of the Bush administration and its war policy. Even for
front entertainment is taken care of - in every respect: The crooner of Torsun Egotronic, the favorite band of the reason of state brought Merkel youth, is one of the party. For the know exactly ". In terms of Israel or something, because in my opinion, the anti-German situation analysis, the truest" If he babbles not just total nonsense, then says Torsun as Punch, when the Israeli army against the Palestinians "shoots back," as he calls the Gaza massacre. The IDF makes Rave with bombs and mutilated bodies almost as much fun as an electro-pop party with a mountain of coke and flows of alcohol
13.12.2009 -. Again blue-white "show the flag" This chamber of horrors calls for 13 December to protest against "left-wing anti-Semitic thugs" on. The train, which will sit on that day before the Red Flora to attack the B5 in motion (certainly does still, as is usual with "anti-German" rallies, the party of Bible-believing Christians an), is not all warmongers, racists, cultural and other grandchildren or simply criminals and children, who ask the Palestinians for the impossible "compensation" of the German crime against humanity of the Jews to the checkout. It also consists of autonomous and other leftists, to the German, U.S. and British barbarities in Bagram, Abu Ghraib, Kunduz and other centers of mass human slaughter and cruelty in the name of civilization silent silent and still are. We think all the German hypocrites who cry today "anti-semitic censorship" if the criticism maximization belligerent be restricted in their freedom of hate propaganda, but no problems if they get Jewish leftists such as Ilan Pappé received speech in Germany ban or think a bunch of "anti-German" Stammtisch brothers led by the Left Party politician Andreas Waibel Club Voltaire in Frankfurt, where to go full tilt at random visitors.
Hamburger Link Duel Speaking Left Party: The state committee of Hamburg LEFT, who had in the violence-glorifying public applause of some of his party for the Israeli massacres in the Gaza Strip stay proves nothing, the same double standards. He beats, albeit with verbal, hard: Instead of peace politician in his own ranks, such as Norman Paech, Joachim Bischoff, to defend against "anti-German" Pöbler within and outside the party to face the rampant neo-conservatism with a consistent ideology critique and expose the machinations of BGHU than what they are: a right farce, Hamburger LEFT make better hunting of left-wing opponents of the " anti-German. " As the online magazine sharp left-reported, the website of the Association of Critical Left of the Left simply shot on the net and forced running dissolved the group. The web site of AG.Medien is subject to censorship: Unwanted critical content had been "at the direction of the national executive" simply deleted, as sharp-left. But that's not all: Christiane Schneider, vice head of the Left Party parliamentary group in the State Parliament, Claude Lanzmann film, "Why Israel" transfigured ideologically and the large Halali against the anti-imperialists such as the false assertion, that had "denied the existence of Israel," also is fueled.
Lanzmann who and whose work is on here enthroned by all as a political and moral authority? Claude Lanzmann was a student in the Resistance, later comrade Jean-Paul Sartre, and is director of the documentary "Shoah", the most important cinematic documentation of the Nazi genocide, the major details of his biography in the media. This is a selective short version. What conceal his supporters: of the communist ideals Sartre has Lanzmann long since passed. Sartre Scheduled to last for the disenfranchised of this world - Lanzmann himself on the other side, on the side of the powerful. The artillery fire of their huge military apparatus and not the sound of the "Internationale," let his heart beat faster. As the director entrusted the world, he neglected Insein filmakers work then also the perspective of the defenseless in front of the tanks, to the Tiananmen Square were crushed by the brutal war machine. He directed his attention to the "man on the inside of the tank," says Lanzmann - "if there is an Israeli." The fact that this tank driver not Israel in its 1967 borders defended, but the way shooting for an internationally wrongful conquest and occupation policy , the speaker mentioned Lieberman's Greater Israel ideology rather not. So it's no surprise that Lanzmann knows no compassion for the Palestinian civilians from the tank - millions of people who faint look on the West Bank and Gaza Strip in the gun barrels of tanks, one of the strongest armies in the world need. The Arab population of the Middle East exists for Lanzmann only as an incarnation of the barbarian general. ". Israel's enemies take no prisoners" Such lurid slogans that have become the hallmark of the director turn out to be propaganda fairy tale - various trades, the Israeli government with Arab anti-war negotiated and implemented (recent example: Gilad Shalit) are punished, the director lies. Lanzmann presents a cultural racist specter of the murderous Arab, whose face is true nothing, Lanzmann's plea for a more considerate looser approach of the Israeli military, except the logic of war ". kill, not to be killed," a world of imagination unleashed violence in which "anti-German" Blogger her social-violent fantasies can run wild - the number of leaves with Israeli Merkava tanks and other military equipment decorated websites hardly overestimated. A world that Lanzmann served with bombastic pathos formulas accurately: "In 'Why is Israel' we see in a picture a fighter jet in the sky, we hear the noise, and someone says, 'This is soothing music to my ears'," he says of the The newspaper world with emphasis ellizistischer front of his film.
makes the political choice of anti-Semitism criticism Since 25.10. ride Claude Lanzmann and his war-cheering fans on a wave of sympathy. From the CDU, Wolfgang Bosbach hardliners to autonomous small-town Antifa - anywhere outrage over "anti-Semitic riots, which have not been done, and" Courage! "Calls to the filmmakers. With their signature under the slogan "There should be no anti-Semitic film censorship," sunbathing on the Internet platform NPD Blog dozen A-, B-and C-celebrities in the glory of the heroic struggle against the "leftist anti-Semitism": Cem Özdemir, Pop-Pope Diedrich Diederichsen, Ralph Giordano, or the law students band Tocotronic.
Everyone wants to be there when it goes against the herbeihalluzinierten left "anti-Semitic mob in St. Pauli. Because there are a lot of PR in addition to free pick up: artist Daniel Richter, who comes from a background (which he forgot to mention in his interview with the world), set in the name of Israel not long ago still in double quotes was, seizes the opportunity of the hour for a thorough rehabilitation program in the new country: the bourgeois camp. He does not worry even shy away from the avowed socialists and communists of the B5 - just as the world and Wall Street Journal is like listen - to be tight, they had perpetrated a second "Kristallnacht". "These links have appeared as SA men who were in the thirties in front of shops to which they are the words" Do not buy from Jews! " lubricated had, "says Judge very carefully. What an incredible historical distortion and trivialization of the Nazi beatings and murder spree against Jews, communists and social democrats! This
for some strange and perhaps sometimes seemingly confusing alliance of left wing radicals and middle-class conservative press - the anti-Semitism in the CDU is worth more than a side note - liberal Professors such as left-liberal members of parliament represents what we call the "power-political option of anti-Semitism criticism." "Anti-Semitism criticism" here consists mainly of a constant equation of right and left. Its subject is not the anti-Semitism, but rather what their leaders want to mean: "Barbaric anti-capitalism" and "Islamversteherei. This is expressed in words like "Nazi Left", "Islamic fascism" or "anti-Semitic fascist" from. The claim that anti-Semitism had released "from his right-wing binding" and extended to the left, where he was "behind masks the innocence of anti-racism, anti-imperialism or globalization critique "Hide (Frankfurter Rundschau), allows the consistently anti-capitalist left" anti-Semitic to denounce. " If left
say capitalism, they mean exploitation, misery and poverty - just the whole system of swindling and cheating "(Karl Marx). When put under "anti-German" and other neo-cons left critics of capitalism, they believed in truth "the Jews", they project their own ugly resentment - "capitalism = Jews" - to others. The "anti-German" philo-Semitism is nothing but an alter ego anti-Semitism. Because it is based on anti-Jewish prejudices (which have their origin in Western civilization, and were grown in Germany for the destruction of ideology) and gives them a friendly face. Under different historical conditions that Philo-Semitism can fall back into bare murderous hatred of Jews. The philosophical anti-Semitic "anti-German" with slogans such as "Any criticism of Israel is anti-Semitic" a fight for "the Jews" that identify them incorrectly with Zionists, and defend the existing only in its German-pathological fantasies Ideal State of Israel, in which it allegedly no class rule, no Racism, no anti-Semitism, sexism, and not elsewhere is no social contradictions. According understand "anti-German" Jews only as an abstract category - one for German past, the neutralization of capitalism critique perfectly trimmed species for production of ideology as the sum of available copies. The individual Jew, the individual Jew as a human individual is the "Anti-Germans" just a mess. Especially if he / she the "anti-German" by propagated stereotype of the only "real" Jews, the Zionist armed to the teeth, muscle Jews, is incompatible. The hate-filled Attacks by "anti-German" on (Israeli) Jewish leftists and ultra-orthodox Jews unmask the "anti-German" Philo-Semitism.
Israel and Zionist Jews convert to a cipher for the "civilized West" and the capitalist society. "Who will protect Israel, not only protects the Jewish state, it protects the western community of values," said Mathias Doepfner, chief executive of Axel Springer AG. And who does not like quite so supportive attitude, celebrates Tel Aviv as "the world's 10 best party town" (Stefan Kunath, BAK Shalom). In any case, should apply: to a "Western orientation" is something you just do not as Bahamas-author Martin Blumentritt concludes. The "real possibilities of human emancipation," said Blumentritt, are "only developed in the West." Criticism of the Western world had "turned into the propagation of a racial struggle against the white race '."
"anti-German" anti-Semitism and other critics from the right is not about Israel, not Jews, not for social progress. It is rather a means to break any resistance to the remaining non-capitalist of the world against its profiteers and to legitimize the power of the ruling classes. This "critique" of anti-Semitism is a means of extending and Deepening of capitalist social access to resources and the exploitation of labor, it is an ideology of the dynamic power of capital has become. Western values and white race against the "leftist anti-Semites." This is a cultural battle for the capital. Therefore, this "anti-Semitism criticism" by its beneficiaries in the mouth and out against his victims. The commitment of the "anti-German" neo-cons for "minimum standards of civilization" and their alleged struggle against barbarism are a form of class struggle against the winner of the losers of capitalism.
from the political option makes this "anti-Semitism criticism" we speak, because they function as a legitimizing ideology for a geopolitical realignment in the Middle East and imperialist wars, as can as a radical anti-union policy or - as now operated by the "anti-German in Hamburg - for the closure of a left and immigrant political center, where Hartz IV-injured and other poor wretch always find open doors.
"B5 evacuate!" (Martin Blumentritt). That is what the organizers of the spectacle speak it in their publications openly, it's the Bahamisten, the "anti-German" group criticism maximization, the BGHU and its supporters - for years, such as the Anti-German group Hamburg said frankly. After all, the B5 should "not be treated differently than any other Nazi", they say. If the "anti-German" alliance achieve its goal, it would not even remotely the "maximization" of criticism, but the exact opposite: their paralysis. We were thus described by Herbert Marcuse nightmare scenario a step closer - the company without opposition.
