What is going on at indymedia Deutschland?

RG | 02.06.2010 11:41

Since Gaza all quiet on the German alternative media front. There are obvious signs that de.indymedia.org has been overtaken by the Antideutsche sect

Since the Israeli massacre de.indymedia.or is increasingly obstructing free reporting on the events.

It´s the name and defame AND silence tactic.

For instance: Here we have an article about the Gaza solidarity demo in Berlin yesterday.  http://de.indymedia.org/2010/06/282732.shtml

Since it has been posted, numerous additions and comments have been published that defame the demo as antisemitic, nationalistic, i.e the usual antigerman sect´s propaganda is beeing given free space to roam on the German IMC.

As I´ve been to the demonstration yesterday too, I tried to post an article this morning which was in fact critical of the demonstration, but nonwithstanding argued to take sides and show solidarity with the freedom flottila.

It has not been published since.

Just now I found out that another article on the Gaza demo has been censored. See:  http://de.indymedia.org/2010/06/282777.shtml

"Berlin: 900 auf Free Gaza Protest Demo
Antifa heisst Internationale Solidarität! 02.06.2010 - 11:49
Am 1. Juni gab es auch in Berlin erneute Protestkundgebungen und eine Demonstration aus Protest gegen den brutalen Angriff des israelischen Militärs auf die humanitäre Free Gaza Flotte. An den Protestaktionen in Berlin nahmen insgesamt über 1000 Menschen teil. "

And if you click on it, it says it has been hidden:

Shameful

02.06.2010 13:04

It is shameful that the pro-imperialist Ultra-German sect still defends Israeli terrorism (even in Israel only the extreme right support this attack), and that the German left tolerate them.

still "technical" problems at IMC Germoney

02.06.2010 14:03

yes, in the meantime the article has miraculously reapeared, whereas some comments do not. Well, during the Gaza conflict there were hints to the source of the problem published ón indymedia Scotland, but than erased, so I shall not name the project that IMC Germany is co-working with - technically - not politically - of course.

Terrible censorship

02.06.2010 16:39

I know - they won't print Latuff cartoons either.

interesting

02.06.2010 21:14

i find this subject quite fascinating, in that Israel clearly exhibits 'nazi tendencies', if you will, which are recorded in history as PROOF, checkable, readable, viewable, discussable, etc, and yet there are, seemingly, 'comrades'(?) that would march with 'british' or 'american' flags as signs of liberation for oppressed, imprisoned, persecuted, etc............
The other day an israeli minister actually said, to TV cameras, that this was an attack on Israel, that soldiers getting a bump and bruise - whilst activists get assaulted with lethal weapons and left to bleed to death on the seas - was an ATTACK ON ISRAEL.

For fuck sake......the best case of double speak ive seen in a long while, probably since bush said he'd use 'terror to fight terror'..................fucking morons.

all flags are bullshit, eventually, it'l mean something bad to someone or something, so fuck it all off, thats what i say!

not censored enough you mean

02.06.2010 22:48

"Since it has been posted, numerous additions and comments have been published that defame the demo as antisemitic, nationalistic, i.e the usual antigerman sect´s propaganda is beeing given free space to roam on the German IMC. "

So basically your complaint is that Indymedia.de is not censored enough. Maybe you should walk through the streets of Berlin wearing Latuff's latest cartoon on your chest and see how you get on.

In the 1930s people from Britain and all around the world went to Spain to fight fascism. This time people are going abroad to SUPPORT fascists. Unbelievable.

Censorship at IMC Germoany is still rampant

03.06.2010 10:22

In the past few hours postings and comments are still being blocked.

Coming up with Latuff and the possible reactions of pro-Israel sectarians in Germoany as an excuse for censorhsip is merely demagoguery. It displays the patronising style of those self appointed pompous gits who´ve hijacked de.indymedia.org

offensive to Germans as well as Jews

03.06.2010 12:32

Yes, because indymedia UK's in-house "anti-Zionist" has never, ever done any cartoons that might be considered offensive to Germans.

anonymous


So it´s tit for tat about latuff?

03.06.2010 14:58

Ah, I see! Because UK IMC does not censor Latuff some mods on IMC Germany retaliate by censoring whatever does not fit into their pro-Israel media spin doctoring?

Because, and I know this for a fact, people assoc. with IMC Germany are part of the pro-Israel media spin

it's not defamation when it's true

03.06.2010 18:35

What the OP seems really annoyed about is what the Germans DIDN'T censor - ie criticism of your beloved Hamas and allied fascistoids.

I know that everything Israel does is wrong and all that, but there's photographic evidence of Turkish fascists and Hamasniks at the demo - remember, it's not defamation if it's true.

Pro-apartheid racists

05.06.2010 13:50

Supporters of apartheid at de.indymedia are still deleting comments, such as mine which approved of pro-Israel racists being dispersed at a demonstration in Leipzig. Fighting racism means fighting the Antideutschen.
