Germany is about to pass one of the most odious bills criminalizing speaking out against Israel in schools, universities, in organizations, in art and culture- especially by Middle Eastern people
‘In recent months, the alarming extent of antisemitism based on immigration from the countries of North Africa and the Middle East, where antisemitism and hostility
towards Israel are widespread, partly due to Islamist and anti-Israeli state indoctrination, has become clear.’

‘The Bundestag reaffirms the budgetary regulations for the allocation of funds on the
basis of the liberal democratic basic order for all recipients of federal funding. The
Bundestag reaffirms its decision to ensure that no funding is provided to
organizations and projects that spread antisemitism, question Israel's right to
exist, call for a boycott of Israel or actively support the BDS movement’

There must also be no room for antisemitism in the ranks of art, culture and the
media. The causes and backgrounds of the major antisemitism scandals in these areas
in recent years, particularly at 'documenta fifteen' and the Berlinale in February 2024,
must be comprehensively investigated and conclusions drawn. Where the Federal
Government has already tackled this - for example through awareness-raising measures
and codes of conduct for federally funded institutions with regard to antisemitism - the
Bundestag welcomes this

ensure that no projects and plans with antisemitic objectives and content in
particular are funded. Art and cultural events and institutions should work with
experts to apply antisemitism-critical codes of conduct and awareness strategies to
guide their actions

Antisemitic behavior must have consequences. Schools and universities must therefore
be supported in continuing to make use of their legal options or to implement
corresponding options. This includes the application of house rules [Hausrecht,
controlling access to and use of property: permit or deny entry, set rules for behavior,
remove people], exclusion from lessons or studies and even disenrollment [ending
their student status] in particularly serious cases

It would be helpful here to include the fight against antisemitism in particular in the
relevant curricula of degree courses, to qualify teaching staff accordingly and to
appoint antisemitism officers at universities across the board

We welcome the fact that the German government is vigorously promoting the listing
of terrorist groups at EU level, is resolutely implementing the listing of the military
wing of Hezbollah and has already imposed a series of sanctions on members of
organizations that not only deny Israel's right to exist, but also actively fight against
Israel. These include first and foremost the Iranian Revolutionary Guards. The
protection of Jewish life remains a global obligation for Germany
