Germans Violently Protest ‘Why Israel?


whitemanvsjewgh1.medium
Prominent French Jewish filmmaker Claude Lanzmann expressed “shock” last week that German leftists in Hamburg had violently prevented the showing of his debut documentary film, Why Israel, about the role of the Jewish state as a homeland for refugees. In late October, the 1973-produced film was scheduled to be shown at the B-Movie cinema, but roughly 50 left-wing activists from diverse anti-Israel groups affiliated with the anti-Zionist International Center B5 barred visitors from entering the movie house. In Why Israel, Lanzmann – perhaps best known for his groundbreaking documentary Shoah – depicts Israelis who found refuge in Israel

The movie house said in a statement that it had been compelled to cancel the film screening and a podium discussion because “we were threatened with violence.”

According to eyewitness reports in the German media, left-wing protesters ranging in age from 16 to 70 shouted “Jewish pigs” and “faggots” to the cinema attendees. A pro-Israel left-of-center group, Kritikmaximierung, cosponsored the showing of thefilm. The protesters propagate an “anti-Semitic position” that views “Zionism as racist,” said Pomrehn. The International Center B5 activists staged an agitprop performance to block the guests’ entry, setting up an Israeli military checkpoint with wooden military rifles. The protesters were armed with bicycle locks and wore fingerless fighting gloves.
