From the river to the sea': six words that are testing freedom of speech in Germany | Peter Kuras
Briefly

The phrase "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" can legally be expressed in Germany unless it is deemed a support for Hamas, as per court rulings.
Despite the controversy surrounding the slogan, it remains a centerpiece of the global Palestine solidarity movement, predating Hamas, emphasizing the diversity of its interpretations.
Judge Birgit Balzer expressed skepticism about interpreting the slogan as merely a call for freedom, citing its association with Hamas and the timing of the rally.
Ralf Michaels noted the tension between recent court decisions regarding the slogan's interpretation, suggesting a potential shift in how such phrases are handled legally in Germany.
