Hamburg 'caliphate' rally prompts calls for punishment DW 05/01/2024
Briefly

'Anyone who wants to introduce Sharia [strict Islamic law] in Germany and declare a caliphate is an enemy of our democracy,' said Dobrindt. 'The state must confront them with consistency and rigor.' Dobrindt demanded tough consequences for 'caliphate extremists,' including prison sentences and citizenship loss.
German Interior Minister Faeser emphasized the need to vigorously pursue crimes committed during the rally. 'No terrorism propaganda for Hamas, no hate speech directed at Jews,' said Faeser, calling for immediate and forceful intervention at demonstrations.
Chancellor Scholz echoed the sentiment, stating that all Islamist activities must be addressed under the rule of law. 'All the Islamist activities that are taking place must be dealt with using the possibilities and options available to us under the rule of law,' said Scholz.
