Make Berlins streets red and beautiful!

Colonial and neoliberal powers construct a single model of feminism: the feminism of the oppressors that is limited to a so-called “women’s rights’” framework to serve their interests. This feminism is an accomplice in the system of oppression. Their “democratic” saviorism justifies their wars, occupation, detention centers, murderous borders and walls. This is Imperialist Feminism.

Imperialist feminism has always been part of the colonial project, serving as the “innocent” face of colonial violence. The “protection” of western-centric feminism has historically been used to economically and militarily subjugate countries of the Global South. Billions of dollars and euros go to fund occupation, genocides, oppressive regimes and exploitation in the name of liberating and saving women.

The new wave of fascism in Germany becomes loud and clear with the hypocrisy of imperialist feminism and its love for performative action. The deceptive activism that calls out against facism on the street while they’re complicit in the genocidal actions of the fascist israeli regime and oppressing & criminalizing any voice of palestinian resistance.
We do not forget their bloody hands, currently and over the centuries, in the Global South: in Palestine, Congo, Sudan, Afghanistan, Kurdistan, Tigray, Artsakh, Peru, Libya, Iraq and all the countries with brutal colonial histories. Let’s take to the streets to show the corrupt powers of this world that we neither forget nor forgive.

We, Alliance of Internationalist Feminists, know that self-organization and self-defense are our strength in fighting against imperialism, fascism, capitalism, patriarchy, and white supremacy. Only an internationalist resistance will put an END to colonial borders and imperialist agendas.

We are standing with the resistance of our siblings from the Global South in their fight against patriarchy, capitalism, apartheid, fascism, displacement, land theft and ethnic cleansing. We are countless and our history and struggles for liberation and justice are intertwined.

None of us is free until all of us are free!

Aufruf:
Freiheit für die Inhaftierten der LLL-Demonstration!
An der diesjährigen Lenin-Liebknecht-Luxemburg-Demonstration,
beteiligten sich mehrere tausend Menschen. Die Demonstration führte
auch dieses Jahr zum Friedhof der Sozialisten, wo den von rechten
Freikorps ermordeten Kommunisten und Sozialisten gedacht wurde.
In diesem Jahr wurde die LLL-Demonstration erneut massiv von der
Berliner Polizei angegriffen. Videos in sozialen Netzwerken zeigen das
Ausmaß der brutalen Polizeigewalt, mit der gegen die Demonstranten
vorgegangen wurde. Die Polizisten liefen immer wieder in die Menge,
schlugen wild um sich und setzten Pfefferspray ein. Sie machten
gezielt Faustschläge auf Kopfhöhe, gingen in Gruppen auf einzelne
Personen los, schlugen und traten erbarmungslos auf am Boden Liegende
ein, umstehende Personen auf dem Fußweg wurden ohne Grund umgeschubst.
Dabei wurden mehrere Menschen schwer verletzt, die anschließend im
Krankenhaus behandelt werden mussten. Der traurige Höhepunkt dieser
Gewaltexzesse war der brutale Angriff auf einen 65-jährigen Mann, der
infolgedessen zeitweise in Lebensgefahr schwebte. Dabei sorgte die
Berliner Polizei bewusst dafür, dass Verletzte nicht medizinisch
behandelt werden konnten, indem sie die Rettungssanitäter bei ihrer
Arbeit behinderten und Polizisten sich weigerten Rettungswagen
anzufordern. Auch Pressevertreter wurden gewaltsam daran gehindert
über die Polizeigewalt zu berichten und diese zu dokumentieren.

***IMPORTANT***
Dear comrades, last night there was a lot of police brutality in the area of Sonnenallee. A friend is now missing.

Have you seen a person being beaten up by the police last night (31.12) around 3.30-4.00 am between Sonnenallee and Karl Marx Str., then taken away in an ambulance?

PLEASE let us know any piece of information that can help.

***WICHTIG***
Liebe Genoss*innen, letzte Nacht gab es viel Polizeigewalt in der Gegend um die Sonnenallee. Ein*e Freund*in wird jetzt vermisst.

Habt ihr gestern Abend (31.12.) gegen 3.30-4.00 Uhr zwischen Sonnenallee und Karl-Marx-Str. eine Person gesehen, die von der Polizei zusammengeschlagen und dann in einem Krankenwagen weggebracht wurde?

BITTE meldet euch mit jeder Information, die uns weiterhelfen könnte.

Kriegsverbrecher Rheinmetall! Stoppt Waffenlieferungen an Israel!

Bundesweite Aktion vor Rheinmetall Standorten 19.12., 15:30 Uhr Aufklärung zu deutschen Waffendeals und Exporten nach Israel.

Wir fordern einen sofortigen Stopp deutscher Unterstützung Israels und des Genozids an der palästinensischen Bevölkerung in Gaza. Die deutsche Regierung ist hinter den U.S.A der zweitgrößte Waffenlieferant Israels. Seit einigen Wochen fährt die Kriegsmaschine auf Hochtouren und Deutschland liefert vermehrt Munition und Artillerie nach Israel, Israel setzt diese Waffen direkt gegen die Palästinenser in Gaza ein. Wie zum Beispiel die 155-mm- Haubitzengranaten. Artillerie, wie die 155-mm- Granaten, richten massiven Schaden an, fordern hohe Zahlen an Todesopfern und Schwerverletzten. Allein in der ersten Woche feuerte Israel 6.000 Bomben auf den dicht besiedelten Gazastreifen ab. Es sind schon über 18.000 Palästinenser getötet worden und die Zahl steigt stündlich.

Die 155-mm-Granaten werden von dem deutschen Unternehmen Rheinmetall hergestellt. Deutschland macht sich an dem Genozid und der ethnischen Vertreibung der Palästinenser mitschuldig und das DAX Unternehmen Rheinmetall profitiert noch dabei. Deswegen rufen wir deutschlandweit zu Kundgebungen vor den Standorten Rheinmetalls auf.

Stoppt Waffenlieferungen an Israel!

:”This is a call to feminists of color world wide! Join us in standing strong and saying NO to geno cide! We invite you to recognize Pal estine as a feminist issue and rise up against the genocide and apartheid in occupied Palestine”

Our revolutionary greetings to all of you people who are here today
We are all witnessing two months of horrifying violence on the Palestinian people in Gaza. Two months of an unstoppable Israeli killing machine whose armed forces dance, sing, and celebrate on the ruins and rubbles of Gaza while hundreds of Palestinians are buried under those ruins. More than 2 months of every day facing a new dimension of the brutality of Israeli Occupation forces against the People in Palestine.
The arbitrariness of the Israeli State is backed beyond its colonial borders by the US, the UK, Germany and others, where suddenly using white phosphorus is no longer seen as a war crime against humanity, where demolishing homes and robbing land is justified and celebrated, where Genocide is claimed as self-defence. Billions of Dollars and Euros are given to the war Industrie to fund Occupation, Apartheid and Genocide.
Israel is a colonial Project supported by all means necessary for 75 years by imperial powers : from Providing Bombs, Weapons, Tanks, and War Technologies for the genocide of people in Gaza to media coverage that promotes pro-Israel propaganda justifying genocide. The hands of all these powers are stained with the blood of Palestinians.
Since the first days of the occupation of Palestine in 1948, Israel has been one of the main recipients of military aid and importers of heavy weapons from the US, and Western countries, amongst them Germany. Germany, a country that has in its history committed the most hideous crimes like the Herero and Namaqua genocide in Namibia and the genocide of Jewish and Romani and Sinti people in N**i Germany, again has a part in the ongoing genocide in Palestine especially now in Gaza.
This year alone, the German government has exported military equipment and arms to
Israel worth more than 300 million euros, ten times more than in 2022, most of them after October 7th. The stock values of Western weapon companies are increasing while the number of Palestinians shot by their weapons and killed by their bombs goes higher.

“Sexual assault” as propaganda to facilitate Genocide in Gaza
The policy of perpetually creating/fabricating pretexts for enabling the genocidal war against Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip by US President Joe Biden and his administration has been unveiled. It is evidently and manifestly functional to masquerade the massacres committed by the Israeli Occupation war machine. Over 16 thousand Palestinians, most of whom are women and children, have been killed, 40 thousand civilians were injured, and more than 1.7 million Palestinians were displaced from their homes by the effect of this propaganda campaign.
Within their narration to justify the genocide, the US administration adopted, via recitations of its president, the allegations promoted by the Israeli occupation’s propaganda machine regarding the occurrence of “sexual assaults” against Israeli female hostages in the Gaza Strip. No credible evidence or reports from independent international investigative bodies in this regard was provided. Such conduct in endorsing unfounded allegations without due diligence serves as a deliberate distortion of the struggle of the Palestinian people for liberation and their legitimate resistance against an occupying colonial entity. We also note that all previous fallacious allegations, such as the killing of children and burning of civilians/ SETTLERS, were later retracted/negated/denied by the very entities that espoused them.
