In the continuing series of Germany’s repressive tactics against Palestinians and Palestine organizing, from the bans of demonstrations, to the state-wide smear campaigns, to the Israeli ambassador calling for listing Samidoun as a terrorist organization, the German state has escalated its measures by targeting our German chapter coordinator, Zaid Abdulnasser, a Palestinian refugee born in Syria, and is threatening to revoke his residency due to his engagement in Samidoun Network and Masar Badil, the Palestinian Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement.
This repressive attack circumvents the legal system and exploits the precarious situation of Palestinian refugees, threatening their legal status with no due process. We will stand strong against these attacks and we ask for your full support!
We will be launching the International Campaign Against anti-Palestinian Repression in Germany on the 16th of September 2023, and are contacting you in advance to better coordinate the campaign!
