🟡 BREAKING: Police violently beat protesters in Berlin during a demonstration marking five years since the far-right extremist attack in Hanau. Officers threw punches and made targeted arrests, escalating tensions and turning the memorial protest into a scene of state repression. Anti-fascist groups and pro-Palestinian voices gathered to honor the victims and stand against the very ideologies that led to the Hanau attack, only to be met with the same systemic violence they were protesting.
Five years ago, a right-wing extremist murdered nine people with migrant backgrounds in Hanau—a massacre that exposed Germany’s deep-rooted issues with racism and far-right violence.

On this day in 1942, then US President Franklin D. Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066, forcibly relocating virtually all Japanese Americans to concentration camps for the simple crime of being of Japanese ancestry. Meanwhile, the US claimed to be fighting for “freedom” during WWII.
While one might think that this was done out of “military necessity,” Italians and Germans in the US were largely left alone. It was Asians who the US government perceived as an existential threat to “Western civilization,” not fascism.
Read on to learn more about this ugly chapter in the history of anti-Asian sentiment in the US.

The Trump administration has halted all funding to the Palestinian Authority (PA) security forces as part of a broader freeze on foreign aid, according to both US and Palestinian officials.
During Trump’s first term, Washington had cut direct aid to the authority but continued supporting trainings for the security forces. These programs are conducted through the United States Security Coordinator (USSC) for Israel and the Palestinian Authority.
The US is regarded as a significant contributor to PA initiatives, including security training, stated Brigadier General. Anwar Rajab, spokesman for the Palestinian security forces. Due to the funding freeze, some training programs have already been reduced, and officials are now seeking alternative donors.

After 49 years as a political prisoner, Leonard Peltier is out, but not free. The Native American activist, persecuted by the US state, has been moved to house arrest following a last-minute commutation by former President Biden before leaving office.
In 1977, Peltier was wrongfully convicted of aiding and abetting the killing of two FBI agents in Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, South Dakota. The evidence used to convict Peltier was very controversial, and his trial was ripe with irregularities. Many believe his imprisonment is retribution for his leadership in the Native American liberation movement.

🟡 Join @theredstream
UN’s Francesca Albanese says she is “shocked” about the German police interventions at a Palestinian event she is attending.
Albanese called the situation in Germany “pretty awful” after police were checking if they could arrest the UN Special Rapporteur on Palestinian Territories.
Albanese is speaking today at the event hosted in Berlin. Keynote speeches and panel discussions on Palestine are on the agenda. German officials are already responsible for canceling two previous events just last week.
Riot police are on standby, ready to shut it down any moment—mirroring the crackdown against the Palestine Congress 2024.
The police imposed censorship restrictions and even told the organizers they would place undercover agents in the crowd for surveillance.
🟡NEW: Watch how Palestinian journalist Hebh Jamal is tearing apart German media and government censorship of Palestinian voices. She’s speaking right now at a Palestine solidarity event in Berlin. Her documentary, which dives into Germany’s complicity in the Gaza genocide, has already been censored by the police—some parts are not allowed to be shown.

Grenada’s Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell directly told EU Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen that the EU must pay slavery reparations to Carribean nations. He spoke at yesterday’s Caribbean Community (CARICOM) opening ceremony in Barbados, a forum for Carribean nations to meet and collaborate.
Mitchell told Von der Leyen that the EU should apologize and offer compensation for its role in the Transatlantic Slave Trade. Von der Leyen did not address reparations but denounced slavery in her speech.
Over 129,000 enslaved people were brought to Grenada during the European colonization of the island. Both the French and the British colonized Grenada and subjugated its people.

“We can always shoot them all afterward [...] Or gas them”—With Germany’s elections just days away and the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in second place in nationwide polls, let’s not forget the kind of people they employ. This recording exposes AfD official Christian Lüth openly stating what the party truly stands for—as far back as 2020.
Lüth, a self-described fascist and former AfD parliamentary spokesperson, was suspended when this clip surfaced in 2020. Yet, in 2024, he has quietly returned. Since June, reports indicate he has been working for AfD MP Jan Wenzel Schmidt—in the Bundestag, at the heart of the German state.
The AfD may “suspend” members to maintain appearances, but its MPs are free to hire whomever they please.

🟡 BREAKING: Palestinian resistance forces have handed over the bodies of four Israeli captives to the Red Cross. Abu Obaida, the Hamas spokesman, confirmed that all four captives were killed by Israeli bombings on the Gaza Strip. On each coffin, the resistance inscribed the name of the captive killed alongside the name of their killer: Benjamin Netanyahu.
The exchange took place on the eastern side of Khan Younis, a symbolic location for the Palestinian resistance, as it was a central position for Israeli ground forces during military operations in the city.
Banners on the stage display the number of Palestinians killed and wounded in Israel’s genocidal war, while another shows coffins draped in Israeli flags, bearing the message: “The return of war = The return of your prisoners in coffins.”

Today, in Black History Month, we remember what is often regarded as pan-African pioneer Kwame Nkrumah’s best-ever speech. “Unite or perish,” he famously warned, appealing to the heads of 31 other African states to come together to create a strong continental union. These are the famous words the first Ghanaian president uttered at the Organization of African Unity’s (OAU) founding summit in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 62 years ago.

German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock still appears to struggle with the question of bombing civilians. The answer is clearly stated in the Geneva Conventions, yet Baerbock seemingly has no idea what those are.
This isn’t the first time. Baerbock—a Green Party MP—has previously faced international criticism for declaring that Germany “won’t shy away” from helping Israel bomb “Hamas terrorists,” even in civilian areas.
The Geneva Conventions clearly prohibit the deliberate or indiscriminate attack on civilians and civilian objects, even if the area contained military objectives, but Germany does not seem to care about international law.
Germany’s unwavering support for the Israeli occupation is well known by now. Shockingly, with elections in Germany looming, nearly all major political parties remain united on one stance: unconditional support for Israel—even at the cost of genocide.

Today marks five years since a right-wing extremist shot and, in cold blood, murdered nine people with migrant backgrounds in the German town of Hanau.
In recent years, Germany’s far-right movement has seen a steady rise, with the AfD party on its way to becoming the country’s main opposition party. With a string of failures and inaction at the hands of the German government, the attack in Hanau serves as yet another example of its willful blindness in the right eye.
So read on to find out how the German state was and continues to be complicit in what some describe as the worst right-wing attack in Germany’s recent history.

Hamas says it’s ready to free all Israeli captives in one batch.
In a newly released statement, Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem declared, “We are prepared for a second phase in which the prisoners will be freed in one batch, provided an agreement is reached that ensures a permanent ceasefire and a complete withdrawal from the Strip.”
This proposal follows remarks from US President Donald Trump, who had criticized the phased weekly release of captives taken from Israel, warning that “all hell will break loose” in Gaza if Hamas didn’t free all the captives last Saturday. The decision to increase the number of captives released was made in response to a request from mediators and as a demonstration of Hamas’ commitment to fully implementing the agreement’s terms.

Is this the beginning of the end for the Ukraine war? US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov held direct talks—the first high-level negotiations between the two nations since the onset of the war.
Both countries agreed to reestablish their respective diplomatic missions, a massive step in normalizing relations. The two countries will also appoint teams dedicated to the negotiations. Rubio emphasized that sanctions relief could even be considered as part of the negotiations.
Notably, the meeting did not include representatives from Ukraine or the EU, suggesting that the two will be marginal in shaping the outcome of the war.
